The pattern has continued it seems, another Sunderland win, another club's fans that believe we were average, Barnsley are/will be better and Shrewsbury apparently deserved to win the game, forgetting that a game lasts 90 minutes plus injury time. No credit whatsoever, one even going as far as describing both of our goals as "sloppy" (the first, yes, the second however was a fantastic piece of interplay imo). The usual predictable bitterness.

Sunderland Game | blue-and-amber

It would be nice to see us really turnover a side away from home mind. That said, the win is the most important thing, good performances are a welcome bonus. I just hope we continue to improve, injuries and suspensions have not helped our cause of course. I still think we need to address our slow starts, although the opposition in this league after a flying start do tend to flag and as a result we have tended to take advantage of our superior fitness and persistence in the second half.

From what you've said no lies have been told
 
It almost seems as though a lot of opposition fans want Barnsley to do well/go up if they can't do it themselves.
 
I like how people keep bigging up Barnsley, less of the spotlight on us the better. Need to quietly go about our job by continuing to push on and win the games we don’t deserve to. That’s part of what good teams do. If we’re winning but not playing too well I’m not that concerned, really couldn’t give a shit what any other team think as well.

We will turn over teams, when we click into gear second half of the season.
