Re: Blackpool Fans
Although the majority who've been today don't appear to arrived on this board as yet, just a few thoughts relating to post match comments from others and my own thoughts having watched on-line.
Thought Sunderland thoroughly deserved it today. They were far better than us all over the pitch.
Although we had a few long range efforts in the first half that produced admirable saves from Gordon, we were far inferior overall.
Second hald, we had a lot of the ball, but did not really break through at any time and always looked vulnerable to a breakaway (can except that when we're chasing a game).
Finally, with regards to Richardson's 'assault' on Eardley...his boot was slightly high but it certainly wasn't a malicious challenge. The fact that it drew a lot of blood, and that Eardley was off the pitch two minutes later when Richardson scored, was just plain unfortunate.
PS : Forgot to mention, our penalty was never a pen in a million years.
We'll need to be much better on Tuesday, but, different day, different game. Start again.
