++++++ Sunderland v Mansfield official Match thread ++++++

[Gaz]

We’re far too easy to play against, teams have us sussed

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

I don’t know why anyones surprised. He’s done it everywhere he’s ever been.

 

[SAFC_Jack]

We are getting bullied of course. Its mental how quickly it has dropped it bits

This is where you need a strong manager.

 

[Hannover96Mackem]

I don’t either. Never seen such a dramatic change in a Sunderland team before I don’t think

See end of last season. Same thing happened after a cracking run. I know people hate it but there’s mileage in this streaky Johnson narrative.

 

[Roker Mackem]

Outplayed by Mansfield

 

[Shandy drinker]

Leeeeeee is a nice enough lad but I don’t think hes up to managing a football club that needs to get out of this division
Action not words leeeeeeee

 

[Archdeacon]

I work in Bristol and all the city fans said the same. He is a poor manager who can’t be constant it’s either one long winning run or a very long losing run.

 

[Arfa Sleep]

Yes because of games in hand

Are we expecting automatic from this squad? I'm not so sure, our aim should certainly be in amongst it but an expectation of getting promoted with probably the weakest squad we've had since being down here.

 

[mad maxim]

With the mistakes we keep making amd lack of movement for the ball sounds very much like a team with zero confidence, manager's job to stop that from happening.
Oh radio newcastle's lost the commentary. How professional.

 

[Mackemmichael]

This game is completely meaningless. League form all that matters

 

[Scotty 1978]

Nice interview with Vera there on radio Newcastle

 

[willo]

If 'Pixie Upstart‘ Lee Johnson is the answer what’s the question?

Beginning to think KLD is another budget clown.

 

[chuckyroll]

Outplayed by Mansfield

Game in hand tho

 

[UrbanFox]

Is Eddie Howe available?

 

[peil]

someone kicked the wrong button on the radio?

 

[Fetch Fletch]

Even the radio has had enough!

 

[stevie-wonder]

Audio cut off to a radio Newcastle advert, wtf.

 

[Safc88]

This is where you need a strong manager.

This can’t continue like these heavy defeats are beyond acceptable

I’m not gunna call for him to be sacked though cos i was impressed a few weeks back

 

[Raich Carter]

quick question. If we lose today it’s 4 defeats in 5. We are a team expecting automatic promotion. So do we still have ‘bedwetters’?

some would have us lose every game and still believe everything is sound.

 

[babyimreadytoblow]

Shot himself in the foot so far. We should have been playing the kids today.
