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

[Boo]

We're lucky to be 0-0. They've had all the best chances. I think we need to take better care of the ball and, as usual, speed it up a bit on the break. Patto and O'Nien our best players so far - and that says it all.

 

[Shibby Safc]

Shite. Zero energy and zero interest to win. Sickening performance

 

[one armed boxer]

Beales fault.

Even though Tony didn't play a striker either.

Who said anything about not playing a striker? Mowbray’s football was a lot more enjoyable to watch than this slow boring shite.

 

[Dodgy]

Awful! Just awful!

Worst first half of the season by a long chalk.

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

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

This is what he was like at Rangers. Exactly the same as what we are doing. Just aimless passing about.

This IS his style of play.

 

[Butcher's Coat]

Jobe off, Adil off. Rusyn on, Pritchard on. It's really not rocket science.

Aye good shout.

 

[Deleted member 52509]

Footy by numbers - must have had 90% possession yet Rotherham looked more dangerous. Bring a CF on and tell him just to stand in the middle to stretch their defence when we have the ball wide.

That Hughill would be ideal for us to play off

 

[Hucknalls Fluffer]

I’m off to watch something more easy on the eye.

Does Susan Boyle have an Onlyfans account?

 

[Hongkongphooey]

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.

They want it more

 

[Cream Soda]

Adil off, Rusyn on
Jobe off, Hemir on

4-4-2 please give the strikers a chance

Hemir isn't even in the squad.

 

[Gonk]

Riding our luck big time, just like in the Hull game. How Rotherham haven't got a couple is mystifying. we have absolutely zero goal threat. Can't even keep the ball.

 

[chuckyroll]

Adil off, Rusyn on
Jobe off, Hemir on

4-4-2 please give the strikers a chance

Need Pritchard on not hemir

 

[Sir dave]

We are going to win 1-0

 

[moshpit]

Atmosphere here is flat AF and no wonder. Shocking so far and no sign of it getting any better.

Compliments of the season to you Steve lad .

 

[SafcForever1879]

Same old boring predictable shite

Too much playing down the wings especially to Clarke

 

[Durham lad]

Rotheram must be fancying their chances now as we're totally ineffective in their half. Jobe by far the weakest member we have and we're crying out for a creative attacking midfielder to take control...why Pritchard is not on is beyond me.

 

[Bg86]

Bigger issues than no striker that half, passing was so poor not sure we'd even be able to get it up the pitch to them

 

[DufraisFTM]

I actually think we need to sub off the two up top, and I never say we need to change it up at HT.

I would take Osheesh and Jobe off and bring on Pritch and Mayenda. Mayenda simply because we need a physical presence in both boxes as they look good from set pieces.

Mayenda isn’t on the bench.

 

[Legend]

Ref has managed to give every possible free kick to Rotherham that he possibly could, while giving Clarke zero protection from the constant holding, pulling and kicking.
