*** Sunderland v Ipswich match thread ***

A narrow loss or a draw is completely unacceptable but we will keep LJ as manager and things just aren’t getting any better. Looks like a completely different set of players

How can you give a yellow for that?
Either he hit him or he didn't. Its a Red or nothing.

Not straight from the rule book, but might be good refereeing. Ipswich have been getting at us with little bodychecks, sly digs tugging back. All sly stuff. The ref lets that go and it continues. It would have been a soft sending off, there was not much of a punch in it, more a little dig. The yellow gives a warning "get the game back to football and stop being wankers", without changing it with a sending off.
 
Been out and about all day and seen the score. Assuming the fact that the match thread is only 32 pages long at this stage indicates that it's not exactly been a classic?
 
Least we have a number of options on the bench to change tactics this week (providing he wants to)
