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.

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.
We will really click at some point and give someone a kicking. Until then, winning while not playing particularly well is a great sign
