They hate him for telling the truth. They love Allerdyce for selling a lie. Mackems man.

There's an awful lot of fewm on the SMB recently despite it being off season. Main thread is going strong, with the usual suspects constantly repeating themselves and taking the moral high ground whilst calling Saudis camel humpers and fetishising paedophilia and execution. Bear Beats seems to think sexuality is a choice in this post which is telling I think. What a daftie.

He's one of yours, South SHields apparently. Incidentally, I also read they have a mackem Sam Fender who is much more better than Sam Fender, but I forget his name.

A quick browse and I assumed from the title this would be from some crappy Sports news website or something, but no, it's the mackem's proclaiming themselves as the most passionate fans and for the most part the lower league fodder they've been forced to play filling in several places in the top 10. I mean, this list does seem to be a bit arbitrary to me and prone to bias perhaps . If we want to be objective, it would be interesting to compare and contrast home and away form. Pretty sure Sunderland's home form is toxic, with the stadium half empty, litter literally blowing around the pitch, regular fights amonst themselves, people leaving early and other people chastising people for leaving early, absolute shite flammable flag displays, shitting in pink seats etc. Not sure they should be number one tbh.

"Admittedly at a lower level". Most in the third tier in fact, none in the top tier. It literally beggars belief how these mackems don't understand the absolute basics of the football pyramid.

Fair enough, I know you will have thought this through! I'm sure it is way better than Slough, for instance. And I had a look at the top 10 attractions, and at number 3 was this. Combining wildlife and model railways, what's not to like. https://www.railworld.org.uk/

Ahh man Meenzer, sorry to hear about your potential work difficulties, but on the other hand maybe in this increasingly digitised remote world we work in there may be wider opportunities? In my own field, I didn't realise this until I bothered looking (not suggesting you haven't like). But Peterborough, really? You only get one life mate so make sure you are sure! Best of luck anyway, you too HMHM, in a parallel Universe I reckon you have got a top job as a satirical writer or something. Sure something good will turn up for you.

Tak a sabaatical, get a part time job in a local garden centre, buy the ring, and go back to your old job. 👍

Is he? Genuinely thought the lad was 20ish, or was this bullshit? (like Alex not really following it). He's definitlely well below the half your age plus 7 rule like, so I'm not defending him.

ewerk's devestated, so he is. And anyway, what's this? Has that kiwi free loader smuggled his mam into the country? Both need re-deporting if you ask me.

I'd say Americans are the worst tourists by a margin. A bit of a generalisation because i've met lovely ones but some seem to treat hotel staff with contempt as you say. Esepcially in places like France where they expect everybody to speak English. But then as HMHM says they will tip heavily, even in all inclusive places with strcit no tipping reules, its so ingrained in their culture, so I can imagine that'san okay bottom line for some staff. A special call out for me goes to South Africans on holiday. Loud, obnoxious, never met a nic one. And now I'm getting deja vu.

"Whey aye pet, alz get them ta make a 'Dennis' for yer pet". "Hoy, Garcon! Two Dennis the Menaces for us, muchos pronto!" "Que?" "DENNIS THE MENACE. COMPREHENDEZ VOUS?" "Tell yer what pet, they cannit get the staff over here. Would't get this doon the Ritz back yem would ya? Good job am fluent in Mexican like."

Alright, state controlled then.

The preceding posts. You're the go to media punch bag on the forum, is all. WHO GIVES A SINGLE FUCK about Holly Willoughby and Philip Schofield? The media are so far up their own arse they think that people actually care about this shit. Sick of it being pastered everywhere, especially on the state funded BBC.

Thoughts, prayers, and candles for @Dr Gloom at this difficult time.

Doesr anyone really like Mojitos? Really? I've been to the motherland of Mojitos, Havana, and just think they are completely meh. Bland as owt. Mind, apparently there's as much evidence for Hemingway being a mojito slurper as there is for Athletic Bilbao being MLFs tbf. Not a fan of tropical cocktails tbh. Sour cocktails and others with a bit of kick are nice though.

Doesn't MF do that on his Alston route?

I watched the spurs one that was posted on here tbf. 15 minutes of my life definitely not wasted.

It wssnt a prediction. And It’s easily avoidable if we regulate was my point. Hope the Russians and Chinese agree like. Be a pisser if we're all wiped out by Chinese AI gone AWOL.

Strange take. I just take a precautionary view with AI. Don't allow AI access to lethal weaponry and make sure you can always physically turn it off. Seems sensible to me, neither pessimistic nor optimistic. If you want me to be pessimistic, you should check out my concerns on self replicating nanobots. 👍 Grey goo theory.

Here's a tip for you. If your mobile photos are too big to upload, take a screenshot and upload that. Saves the hassle of using a resize app. 👍

So Andy Burnham said last night we need radical reform and MPs should be elected via PR. If only some of you muppets on here had voted for the "King of the North" rather than Corbyn back in 2015 maybe we would have been in a better place. Anyway, got me thinking what needs to happen, which, due to my now amazingly developed photoshop skillz (well MS Paint anyway), I can now share with you graphically.

That's a classic fopism that is. 👍

You're right, the penny is in mid flight now, pretty near bouncing off the floor. But a defining instinct of the gammon is to blame someone else, anyone else, but themselves. A poorly educated, entitled generation coming into contact with social media for the first time and still heavily influenced by legacy press owned by oligarchs, have fucked over our children's lives completely. Patten is right in that excerpt and things look incredibly bleak currently. And until the country and its leadership (looking at you Starmer) can admit where we have gone wrong and tell the truth of where we are, things will not get much better.

We came 4th. Okay, we have the steepest upward trajectory but I can't see why we would be second favourites and those odds are ridiculously short imo. As for the mackems, well. They are losing their best two players for starters. And as you say, they seem to ignore everybody else in the league. Mowbray traditionally has difficult second seasons where he is sacked. Mackem home form has been shit for decades. We'll see, but again I think 20-1 is way too short.
