*~*~* Sunderland v Bristol City match thread *~*~*

[Millhouse]

Now that he’s gone off; are we the only championship team that doesn’t have a busy, ineffective, Asian forward?

I didn’t want to jinx it while he was on

 

[AC Mack]

You know best mate

VAR may overturn that opinion.

 

[Keith S30S]

He didn't lunge man

Alese gets in front but it's more shoulder to shoulder than anything else

That's part of the problem. Ref's and the likes of you think players barging through a player's back is shoulder to shoulder.

If a player is the wrong side he will really struggle to put in a legal challenge. That's exactly what happened, he fouled Alese.

 

[Betty Swollocks]

Well they dont cheer them, gotta do something

You don’t get there often then?

 

[look out piano]

2 changes from them interesting

Better not be aggressive lungers.

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

I agree it was more than likely aimed at ref but it isn’t a common thing at all like

It’s just because they were all bunched in together, just before the break mate

 

[Northern Munkey]

Wilson man get hold of the f***ing ball.

 

[Fetch Fletch]

They actually have some capable players, why are they so shit?

 

[Scotty 1978]

These are having a go now

Hew Sam lad. This skySports+ is working a treat like

 

[Porters right boot]

Why do people lie and try to make out they are at the match …shocking

 

[AC Mack]

What makes you think that? Even the commentators mentioned VAR would have given it

Do you agree the ref called it wrong?

I thought it was 50-50 a foul, hence VAR not intervening.

 

[Idlewild Mackem]

Not happy seeing them move to 3 at the back, we've struggled against this formation all season

 

[RossTheNinja]

That's a red Cadillac

Aye but dogs are colour blind

 

[dangermows]

A lot of tension tonight. Hopefully an early second half goal and people can calm down.

 

[3stripes]

Ate we missing Luke then

 

[Sidewinder2]

They’ve shown more intention in the first two minutes than they did in the previous 45

 

[SuperKevsLeftBoot]

Alese has been good today as well

 

[Randy Ostrich]

That's part of the problem. Ref's and the likes of you think players barging through a player's back is shoulder to shoulder.

Alese went down too easily for me and I can see why the ref didn't give it. The "likes of me" maybe have a higher threshold.

That was f***ing shite man
