I'd love to hear this story too, he won't tell us - He'll just do more smiling/laughing smiley emotions laughing at our demise I'd imagine. Personally, I'm sticking to my original thought that he lost a few grand on a Sunderland match and he's never really got over it. Or, he had a bad LSD trip where he was being chased around Liverpool by a huge black cat with evil fangs, I'm not sure which....lol It is a bit weird how much he hates us, but I don't personally mind, each to there own. My mate, for example, hates David Attenborough! To such a degree, he accuses him of being a money grabbing old idiot, who only features in nature documentaries for the fame! Needless to say, I 'educate' him that he's dedicated his entire life to preserving wildlife and has a real passion for it, add to the fact the guy is considered one of the greatest of-all-time at what he does. But, my mate won't budge, so - we leave it. How can you hate Attenborough?
Anyway getting back to Orly, the irony is, he think he's embarrassing us by mocking our current plight, we already know how bad we are. A few weeks ago at the Stadium of Light, the side of the ground I was at was more interested in the paper bag floating around the pitch than the actual game of football, with the paper bag getting closer and closer to the players with even gust of wind, resulting in a huge cheer when it finally landed. That's how bad we are, and we found the funny side to it. Jesus, we've even made the BBC Sport News page with article - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41833416.
Sunderland's draw at Bolton was officially, the lowest point of my life (Football wise). Our home record is now officially, embarrassing and we're a laughing stock at the moment. I work with Newcastle fans, who take delight (Not as much as @orly of course) in making me well aware of the fact we could end up in league 1.
The only thing saving me from a total full-on meltdown, is the fact it can't get any worse. Although, I said that with David Moyes, then we came up with the ace in the pack in Grayson. Who, took us even lower than we were before (And we were already bloody low!) Whoever comes in, HAS to be better than Grayson. We need someone to come in and steer us in a completely new direction. We need to work on the players confidence as there playing with a real nervousness of being scared of losing the ball, we need to brave on the ball and take it forward. On paper, whilst our squad isn't anywhere near good enough in be pushing at the top for promotion, we're much better than we currently are. We've got talented players, we just need to get them all on side and playing with a fight & desire to play for the shirt.
I'm hoping the new manager will come in and turn this around, although, I fear the bigger problem (Owners) will ensure that the next manager is too part of the Sunderland merry-go-round and won't last the season! That's how low my expectation is.
I genuinely don't think we'll go down, but it's terrifying how bad we are, both on and off the pitch. We're at such a low point, the only way is up...Surely?

From the little I have seen of Sunderland,theres as much chance of you playing S.Shields in the conference as there is playing premier league football,Short wants out no one wants in,even in a fire sale I think you would struggle to move them players on and the only managers likely to go near there are the also rans likes of McLeish,McCoist or any other Scot that get be appointed on the cheapI'd love to hear this story too, he won't tell us - He'll just do more smiling/laughing smiley emotions laughing at our demise I'd imagine.

Oh absolutely mate, you're right. This, isn't going to be fixed with a new manager and a few good results. This complete 'turnaround' could take years, 5 years? 5 years + potentially. First of all, we need to wipe off our debt. Ideally, we'd have someone come in and toss money into the club with a view to fulfilling our huge potential. But, we can't rely on a miracle, we need to work internally and ensure our books are balanced. Then, we need to get rid of the deadwood and players tied down on long-term contracts, then we need to invest in youth/academy then we need to get the crowd back etc. There's a lot of work to be done. However, I still stand by my view that we won't go down. Birmingham, Burton and Bolton are my pick to go down. But, we simply can't afford to keep losing, we'll be cut adrift soon unless we sort it out.
We can't just have the mentality of "We're too big to go down" or "The players will come good" as that would be naïve, cocky and disastrous. We need to start playing now, we so desperately need a win to improve our confidence.
In terms of talk of getting back to the Premiership, we're a million miles away from that now. It's so far-away. For a Sunderland team to be fighting to reserve our status in the 2nd tier, that is a (*Swears*) disgrace.
Like you say, the usual manager names have been tossed around, none of them are exactly 'mouth watering'.
It's so frustrating as a Sunderland fan, all we want is to see our team fighting hard for 90 minutes and to win a few games now and then, we don't ask for titles, European places etc. Just, passion, pride and players we can get behind and shout on.
Not much to ask for.

It's simple, he's one of the many 'Blue Geordies' that, according to some, we have in our fanbase.

Yes, and on the pitch

Again, the weird delusions. In no way comparable
I've told you lots of times already - I absolutely despise the 'salt of the earth, got a soft spot for Everton, good karma, pat pat pat' spineless rot of the Sunderland fans on here. You've got Spurs fans, Palace fans, Falkirk fans, all on here, all sound. Sunderland fans are uniformly invertebrate. The emoji over-use is an old calling card of archetypal Sunderland slug @Sunderland afc , who used to use the
all the time.Anyways, drawing at home to Bolton spells doom. Real doom. As in, going bust and potentially out of the league long term doom.
Orly's weird aversion to Sunderland is as necessary as it is baffling
