Sunderland AFC

Sunderland AFC

Well I not to sure if there are many of us around, but as a Sunderland fan I am very excited about us gaining promotion over the weekend.  I have high expectations with Roy Keane at the helm for next season.

H'way the lads!!!!

Jared you freak.  I can assure you that there are few people brave enough (or stupid) to support the black cats around here. . .. .

Good god, I despise Roy Keane. The foul mouthed, dirty, cheating, arrogant git. How I wanted him to fail. How I soooo wanted him to fail. I was convinced he'd blow his fuse and storm out of the job by January.

This proves I know bollox about football (hence why I am a leeds fan).

Congratulations Mackems, congratulations... (cough)... Roy Keane. Well deserved, what an amazing turnaround

congrats on the promotion.

 

i look forward to seeing Keane line up against Sir Alex. Should be an interesting encounter.

H'way the lads indeed.

I think the rot left over from the Peter Reid days has finally been cleared out. Disco Pants has been a revelation in the boardroom with the club not Murrays profits at the top of the aggender.

Keane: Always loathed him as a player but appriciate his motivation and commitment helped Man U to win a treble, if a bit of that rubs off on Sunderland then bring it on.

Inspired signing of Carlos Edwards, not so convinced about Dwight Yorke. It'll be interesting to see what the closed season brings to the Stadium of Light :)

Pleased for Sunderland fans, not so Keane - I despise wife beaters.

Make the most of Roy Keane. He's done a Dowie-at-Palace-esque job (without quite the same face-ache, of course) of dragging Sunderland from relegation fodder to the Prem and I'm sure he'll be off to United as soon as Ferguson calls time.

Gratz on making back up to the top league, hopefully they aren't easy beats.

you said it when you know bollox about football - Roy Keane as a player to this day has not been replaced at Man Utd.......
He has one of the best attitudes in world football might be worth while you reading his book danny.
You can be arrogant when you were as good as he was...

With Sunderland and Birmingham going up at least teams with a pedigree and a strong fan base are promoted. This gives them some chance of survival for more than one or two years.  The playoffs in the Chapmponship will be closely contested and probably now wide open with Derby's form tailing off a bit.  If Charlton go down which promoted team will cash in at the fire sale???

CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!
Well done to Roy Keane and the lads.  Great stuff.  Just hoping they will not be the Prem League whipping boys.

Well done the Cats. Welcome back to the EPL. Stadium of light really does deserve to be a top flight venue.

I wonder who will win the playoffs? I hope its the baggies...they've got great supporters.

Nobody can deny that Keane is a sh*t. But he's an incredibly succesful sh*t. He's obviously instils  something into his players that make them want to perform for him. Fear probably.

What I've noticed about Sunderland this season has been:

I've never met Mr. Keane so I read what you wrote with interest. But isn't this 'bright and articulate chap' the same bloke who stood over Alfe Hinge Haaland jeering at him and calling him a c*nt after a deliberately career wrecking tackle on his knee and also the same bloke who walked out of the world cup (and therefore his country)after calling Mick Mcarthy -the national team manger no less- a c*nt while arguing about (among other things) lack of first class seats on away travel? 

Splitting hairs.  Let's try the justification for destroying David Buust's leg and career then ?
