The Fish 8989 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 i just think its a bit narrow minded - step outside the bubble - you cant generalise and make a sweeping statement like that really - it like saying ive been to Byker and Newcastle is a complete Shithole - like any city in the world it has its shitholes but it also has its fair share of decent people, decent housing and people with decent jobs Is it fair to say sunderland city centre is a shit hole?

David Kelly 1117 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Yes. Anyone who says not is lying tbh. There's a half decent bit down between the pictures and the park but that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 31 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 No. In the answer to the OP. Its important to stay in the fucking league. Couldn't give a shite how they do. The screen shots of their RTG forum tell me all I need to know about their obsession with our club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 8989 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 agreed the city centre is not a patch on Newcastle City Centre - nor will it ever be but thats not what i am saying The problem you face, is that sweeping generalisations will exist forever, certainly between sports rivals. You'll say we're all deluyded We'll say you're bitter and jealous You'll say we're fat We'll say you're inbred You'll say you're classy We'll provide evidence that you're not. You'll say we benefit from positive press We'll say that you'll forever be in our shadow. One thing I can assure you of though, we definitely are less bothered about you than you are of us. compare the sites with biggest traffic and note the number of threads you have about us, our matches, our possible signings, our management or our players, then compare the number of threads we have about you.

The Fish 8989 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 (edited) Ashbrooke, Cleadon, East Herrington - shall i go on? Quick search finds very few properties over £350k in those areas. Also Cleadon and East Herrington aren't in sunderland. They're near to it but there is sufficient green between them to consider them as separate. A fact I'm sure they're grateful of. A similar area in Newcastle provides 3 times the properties. Edited January 21, 2013 by The Fish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19822 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 i think most people from sunderland deep down accept that newcastle is a nicer city; less run down etc. that's not to say newcastle doesn't have it's shitholes or fair share of charvers. it does; sunderland just has more because it's a poorer place that has seen way less inward investment over the years. that's a fact. their football team is still playing better than ours right now. that's also a fact. i don't think our lot care as much about finishing above them as they do about us. but that's always the case when one of two big rival clubs traditionally does better than the other.

My dad was born a Geordie and moved to Sunderland hence i support SAFC and follow newcastle as well in a funny sort of way. I myself have never been on the dole, none of my mates have and all have decent jobs, earn decent money and live in decent houses in Sunderland. I also have good friends who follow newcastle in fact one of my mates is an editor of one of your Fanzines - its all good banter. Come derby day its business as usual but without the banter and rivalry it would be a dull day in North east football. Surely we agree on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
