Toon Fans are Best

[Cliff M]

I've lived up here for many years now, and it makes me laugh when they trot that crap out. Having been to dozens of games, they're no better than most other PL sides. Prior to the recent turnaround in form there were adverts on the back of buses and on the radio to get people to go.

 

This in a one PL team city too. Huge club. Huge.

Toon Fans are c****

I have a mate at work who's a geordie. Him and a fellow Toon fan were recently discussing their prospects now under Keegan. He said they are both starting to see the light that they are a mid-table club at best (Europe a bonus) with a vocal set of supporters and won't be anything else without roots up investment over the longterm.

One drinks in my local, calls himself The Soldier (part of Toon Army!) - known by many other names to many people, none of them flattering .On the day they beat Spurs recently, he called Ladbrokes to get odds that they would be a top 4 club next season and win the league within 3 years. Evidence of how the care in the community programme fails the most needy.

(Unrealistic) hope springs eternal!

 

Most of my drinking pals here have Toon ST's. I used to get endless chit off them about LFC but now they rarely mention us, except when we get beaten. They did support us against the Arce though (as they will agoinst chewsee). They expect me to brag, I never do. They also ask for forecasts when we play them, which is a no win scenario, so I don't bother.

 

Have to say I actually feel sorry for them having won nowt for 40 years. Must be fing nauseating.

[wacko]

A lot of them do have rather unrealistic expectations. It is unbelievable that they haven't won anything in so long, though.
