Lawrence Fullwell
The Northeast's man with his finger on the ear to the ground in the world of football.
Now then lads of the smog? Been a while since I came over on here and entertained you with my Mackem wit and charm, as only I can.
Some things in life never change but only change for the better, when they get round to changing the round signs so you know where the fuck yer gannin when yer pissed like.
So with that little pearl necklace of wisdom we will get well and truly into the hot action they call football.
Well now then, early in the season you lot must have thought I was mad like when I said come new year, the mighty Sunderland would rise like a phalanx from the ashes. Well the proof is in the treacle for all to see- we have come on leaps and boundaries now and you lot must be quaking in yer boots come Tuesday but more of that later on like.
Newcastle are dropping like a stone through hot butter at the moment and the only bet I am looking at this week is who is gonna go first. Steve Magnificent McClaren or Graeme Souness? Newcastle do have injury problems but the fans on Tyneside just expect way too much and its not as if they have been wining cups every season is it? I mean they haven't won anything for nearly forty years, so plenty of time to adapt to being shite.
Boro are in a dangerous position right now, like me the other night when I tried that karma sutra book on wor lass and me back packed up half way through. Anyway you lot have more problems then I care too mention. But it all comes from the top and you have these players earning all that money and they they just don't seem to give a toss at the moment. You lot look all lacklustre and limp and not ready for the hard thrusting passion of top flight football.
So I see the press have finally won the battle and got rid of Sven eh? Well I am not shocked really, I mean you cant trust these foreign lads, ye know I mean. Look at what Sweden did to us during the war, bombing our cities day and night. We need a young English man in charge of the national side. Someone with English fighting spirit but more than likely we will get Howard Fucking Wilkinson or somat.
Hartlepool have come out in sympathy and decided to have a relegation fight all of their very own which is strange. After two years in the play offs they have dropped quicker than my guts after fifteen pints and wor mother in laws Sunday dinners like.
So it's left to Darlington to fly the flag of North east Football this season by the looks of it. Young Dave Hodgson has dragged them kicking and screaming into the play off positions again and I give him full credit for doing so. From what I hear he is a strict disciplinarian who runs a tight ship and does no favours for his sailors, even if they offer him big money to bend over backwards to accommodate them.
So this weekend we see the FA Cup fourth round rear it's head like a masked avenger rising from a dangerous dark tunnel of death. So that's enough of me talking about performing oral on wor lass. Let's see what delights the cup brings eh?
Right then Sunderland have a great chance to advance further into the vinegar strokes of the cup with a trip to Brentford. Now it could be tricky this one so we need to keep our guard up and our watch our backs cause we don't want to be taken roughly from behind by this lot. I fancy us to continue our great form and march into the fourth round like jawdees marching into the dole office to sign on. Brentford 0 Sunderland 2.
Newcastle have a no win situation this weekend against Cheltenham. Win and everybody is gutted as they hate jawdess - lose and everybody pisses themselves, again cause everybody hates jawdess with there ridiculous accent and them Ant and Dec wankers. And not to mention that twat "day 5 in the Big Brother house" geezer if ya follow me like.
So I go for a replay on this one lads with old Cheltenham to nail em in the return. Newcastle 1 Cheltenham 1.
So then The Boro have the hardest game I feel this weekend. A trip to Coventry and its brand spanking new stadium. I bet you lot hope you don't get a spanking down there eh? Unless you enjoy getting spanked down there that is. Coventry won 6-1 last weekend against Derby and you lot got beat again and by all accounts were shite. So it don't look to good me old smogs.
I think is these games you need your class to show. There is no doubt you have class in your ranks but trouble is your ranking is not class these days. In fact some would say you don't rank at all. I go for a tight Boro win by the odd goal with a plucky fight from Coventry as they go down with a struggle. Coventry 1 Boro 2.
In the lower leagues I fancy Pools to win the battle of the Pools against Blackpool. I also see Darlo turning on a high class performance against Mansfield and doing the three points trick.
Anyway that's me for this weekend but I will be back with a Sunderland v Boro Derby special with extra spice to the flavour of the game like.
And remember only Sunderland can say we are truly Sunderland.
