Anyone else starting to get excited yet?

I know it will be cold and maybe damp but, Monday night game, maybe a little fog, all wrapped up with gloves and hat, floodlights on, steam coming up from the burger vans, everyone chatting and anticipating a good game, something about night time games in the winter.

Can anyone remember a time when our little Sunderland had a debate about do we start one of the EPL top goal scorers or leave him on the bench because we have great options?

A time when we have a few world cup stars sitting on the bench because they cant get in the team?

A time when we can sell the Cana’s and Jones’s and they are not missed.

Listen, just between us, don’t want to sound negative, I’m not setting myself up far a kick in the goolies here am I? We not going to do a typical Sunderland and let it slip this time, are we?

Dear Santa, please let it be true this time!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Small boys in the park, jumpers for goalposts.... isn't it

I'm hoping a Monday night game works to our advantage in this case. Two days extra preparation after the high of last weekends result and some long travel distances for the international boys. I think confidence will be extremely high, competition for places will be fierce, and the prospect of a top five position will all mean that we..


get beat :cry:

Bugger, you got me all excited again
 
I used to love weeknight games until I moved away.

Now I have to book a half day monday, and the day off tuesday.

Takes the shine off it, but all will be forgotten if we get 3 points.
 
Night games are magical, smell of the burger van and having to wear 10 jumpers under your Sunderland shirt to keep warm, jumping around like a loony every time we get within 10 yards of the goal to get the circulation going again, takes me back to that first night in 1957 :cool:

Watch us go and get bloody beat by that little convict Cahill :evil:
 
I come on to this thread under the impression it was going to be about Shaun Ryder in the jungle. How wrong was I? He is a nice bloke though

I used to now I just look like I have 10 jumpers on :cry:
 
I remember seeing us beat Everton in a midweek FA Cup tie around the late 70s. Snow falling hard, I could hardly make out the goals from my stand in the Roker. We got at them early and never let them settle at all - cracking night - 2-1 victory iirc. Another episode like that 'n' I'll be a happy bunny.

If it's snowing, I'm watching it in the house:)
