      Back page interview with Niall Quinn in an Irish paper yesterday headlined "Quinn: We can be bigger then pool" It goes on to talk about us signing Keane and then it comes out.." we murdered their home attedances every week after christmas. And if we keep progressing if we get to the point down the line where we are knocking on the door of the champions league I would have to go to the investors and ask them to commit to a 60000 stadium to make us the second biggest club in England"

      What a tit. Why do these clowns think that by building a bigger stadium then Anfield they become a bigger club then us? There is probably 3 clubs in te world who could argue to be bigger then us. Our history and our future will ensure we will always be at the very very top when people ask who is the greates or biggest club in the worlld

      Quinn you clown your attendances were bigger because youve a larger capacity but what happens up there when things arent going well? empty fu**ing seats pal thats what. Dont ever compare Sunderland to Liverpool not only do you make yourself out to be a dick but its not fair on your real fans to be compared to us.

      Never been arsed about Sunderland but I hope we give them a good seeing to on Saturday after reading this sh*te
      just seen this.  Bigger what than us! Red and White Stripes!!!!!!!!!!

      The only thing that I will say about this statement is extremely simple................

       If you are willing and able to throw enough money at something....it will EVENTUALLY bear fruit!

      One of the old cliches that gets my goat is "You can't make the jump from 4th (end of season finishing position for example) to winning the Premiership".

      All of a sudden....Chelsea had a bottomless pit of money and did exactly that by spending something like £200,000,000 in the space of 12 months!

      Anyone that thinks this comment by Nial Quinn is a complete joke either knows the size of his wallet (or the investors) or could be in for a shock a couple of years down the line.

      Modern day investment in football clubs can make anything possible....look at QPR.

      If their billionaire owner is willing to invest serious money they could be back in the big time of Premiership football and challenging for a Champions League place in a couple of seasons from now....that is a scary thought!

      Who would have thought five years ago that Chelsea would be appearing in a Champions League Final and winning back to back Premiership titles with a fan base barely capable of selling out Stamford Bridge??

      I certainly didn't see that one coming!

      The mans delusional, just as Sunderland are building a team to keep them in the division his head runs away with his heart. He should first realize that you have to have some sort of history to go along side the trophy cabinet and then you have to have a world base of fans to support you and not just a few extra supporters in London but the hardest thing of all is to keep it going year on year and this is what,your second year in the prem. See you Saturday....

      This man is surely dissillutioned his ignorance shits me to bits. He is even going on record to say  they will be ready to compete in europe in a few seasons i think he should really be worried about staying in the top flight for the next few seasons. Ignorant tit!

      Think some people here missed a few crucial words like CAN and IF! Where did he say we were bigger now? Are we not allowed to have ambition? It would appear not!
      Why not talk about our attendances? They are bloody good. The 30000 crowds pointed out earlier in the thread were after the worst season in top flight history, slightly more impressive from that perspective?
      'We should be tearing teams like Sunderland apart this season.' - Not arrogant at all then?
      'And on an afterthought, who gives a crap about their attendances when there's no atmosphere? Ha!' - Shown to be loudest in prem last season.
      'the difference is lfc fans turn up even when times are hard where as their fans DONT!' - Sorry but sh*te!
      'With the likes of that mercenary Chimboda in the Sunderland side we should not have too many problems.' - Nobody has ever gone to lfc for the money?
      'The mans delusional, just as Sunderland are building a team to keep them in the division his head runs away with his heart. He should first realize that you have to have some sort of history to go along side the trophy cabinet' - For a long long time Sunderland were bigger than liverpool, presumably you will agree that liverpool turned this around becoming more successful than ourselves? So what makes you so sure we cant catch you?
      'This man is surely dissillutioned his ignorance shits me to bits. He is even going on record to say  they will be ready to compete in europe in a few seasons I think he should really be worried about staying in the top flight for the next few seasons. Ignorant tit!' - Nice of you to provide my answer in your post!  ;)
      You may well beat us on Saturday, you may not, you may well remain bigger than us but then again...

      I don't even think Sunderland has that many fans to fill a 60,000 seater. It would also take them 50 years of winning trophies to get to our size. It would also take a Roman Abromovich or a miracle to get Sunderland into the champions league. I hope this is the last time I see Sunderland and Champions League in the same sentence.

      I admire dreams and ambition but you can't shoot for the stars without hitting the moon first.
      Come on Niall, surely you have to at least finish in the top half before you start coming out with this sort of rubbish.
