*~*~* Rotherham v Sunderland match thread *~*~*

[Longy]

Story if the season really, loads of the ball with zero threat to their goal. They’ve created decent chances.

 

[Cult of Personality]

We’re a disgrace to watch currently. Utter shite.

 

[MarcoG]

Bellingham's great and is hardly gonna be the finished article but he frustrates the life out of me with how slow he is to react. Waits for the ball to come to him so often and takes too long to make a pass.

Aouchiche has showed fuck all any time he's started, clearly got a ton of ability but not doing anything with it. Shown little to deserve a start over Pritchard really. Right hand side of Seelt and Ba gives us no pace or creativity going forward, gonna put so much pressure on our left hand side to do even more work going forward. Not sure how close Pembele is but would be nice to see him for half an hour over there.

Give Rusyn a go as well ffs.

 

[Mowbray Boss Gilet]

Absolutely shocking that like. Surely can't be any worse in 2nd half

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Frustrating when only one side wants to play football. Like being back in league one getting kicked all over

Unfortunately you need the players and a coach who can adapt to the opposition

 

[Hendon Mad Frog]

Miles off it tonight. They need a rocket

Ian Beale top shelfer

 

[Duracel Funny]

Beale ball. Absolute dross that.

Pritch on at half time.

 

[Boot Cleaner]

Same old boring predictable shite

 

[FalkirkMackem]

Absolutely lifting that. Actually worse than lifting. We simply can’t come out for the second half with the same line up.

Jobe simply has to come off and we need to play a 4123 with Ekwah holding and Neil pushed up alongside auchiche behind rusyn

 

[hoolio]

They were as bad at Hull in the first 45 mind, but improved dramatically second 45

 

[Butcher's Coat]

Got to break these fuckers down.
We've done sweet FA up till now.
HTL

 

[billyboy]

Not the best according to Gary Bennett but it’s how you end not how you start that counts.

We know where it’s going to end now though. Seen it too many times.

 

[craigypants]

f***ing awful this. Take Adil off and play a f***ing striker.

Aouchiche looks like he had a spliff before the game....hopeless. Get him hooked please Beale. Totally crap that half. Gonna lose unless he kicks arse at half time

 

[KGC83]

If they turn out this kind of football at home on a regular basis Beale has no chance of ever succeeding.

Crowds will drop, ground will be flat & people will get on players back.

Mate it’s his 3rd game. I’m not a fan like but that was just a poor half all around.

 

[Jacksnuts]

Patterson 8/10. I’d give the rest of them a 2/10z

Worst first half of football I’ve seen since the L1 days.

Fans 10/10

 

[10 Gary Rowells]

Shockingly bad. He's said get the ball up quickly and over the full back and that hasn't worked. Aouchiche up front hasn't worked, he's been awful. Beale has tried to change us a little and it looked awful. Rotherham are as bad as you'll get but they are better than us.

 

[Lawrenceslongthrowin]

Jobe will get sent off here, get him aouchice off

 

[safc_stevo]

This and the last game 'despite the win' has been shocking.. just plain boring..prefer Mobrays tactics. We haven't looked like scoring or even pressing going forward.

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

I’m sincerely hoping this isn’t going to be Beale’s style of play. I know he’s hamstrung with the players at his disposal but it’s so ponderous.
Last season was possibly the best football I’ve ever seen but this is bloody awful.

 

[All or Nothing]

Torture watching that half .
