adios

I've tried to figure out if it was something like that, but he was literally just one of ~20 friends on some random account I clicked on. Glitch in the Matrix imo.

Not getting my hopes up till I see him in full Newcastle kit.

Caulkin reckons he's staying. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03vckmq

Someone jumping out of the Twin Towers took the scenic route?

It's more than the GDP of Sunderland tbf, let him have his moment.

Cheers, @@Ant. What I am mystified by, is that a friend I know from Islington, whom I met in France, friended someone famous, so I clicked out of interest to see if it was real (friend is somewhat famous himself), but it wasn't. The account had only 20 friends, one of which (our friend, Paul) jumped out at me. There appears to be no link between the two social networks, and the probability seems astronomical, law of large numbers notwithstanding. Is this a sign to start doing the Lotto?

Don't suppose you're willing to lay odds on that?

Is this who I think it is? Just a staggering coincidence if it is. Assume mods will delete it fairly quickly if inappropriate.

NO!

Hope the fans sing his name today.

To be fair to the club, Joey Barton will get a text to pass on the message.

The 'Cockney Mafia' thing always makes me cringe, but at least we know the nation are behind us on the Ashley hate.

Exactly.

I'd say he's hurting.

God, I wish I had your optimism. If Rafa goes I don't even know if I'll have the heart to watch the Euros.

I just don't have the magic touch, if someone else had made it, Everton would have won 5-0. Anyway, Rafa's going to take the team back up and then win the league, Sunderland forever unimportant.

Nice thread OP, you fucking wanker.

Will he really be missed at this point? Still probably a pretty classy defender in the Championship.

Thread title was my attempt at hoodoo fwiw, but I will be watching this from behind my sofa.

Obsessed.
