*~*~* Sunderland v Coventry match thread *~*~*

[Poacher]

I was diagnosed with Leukaemia 9 years ago and had a bone marrow transplant 8 years ago.

I wish you all the best.

8 years. Thank you that gives me hope. Had my transplant in September last year but shit myself every two weeks in clinic when they check my bloods. I was told if it comes back in the first couple years then there is nowt more they can do

 

[rubberface]

But apart from that...

...still 2-1 ahead.

 

[forever changes]

Rigg needs to replace Roberts before Roberts gets a red card.

Regis won’t do it

 

[bomber]

Does anyone else think Roberts is walking a tightrope and needs hauling off.

Aye

 

[Ruleigan]

After making such a big deal of resting players I'll not be happy if we fade away.

 

[SAFC11]

Our central midfield doesn’t get forward, unless they are making a rare run through the middle with the ball, then lose it if they do. It has been the problem since November. You rarely get more than one of the three going into the final third.

Looks even more stark with mayenda and isidor though. Must have been a 60 yard gap at one point

 

[nz joe]

Just once in the 2nd half I’d like Jobe to drive forward instead of 360 piroetting back towards our goal

Not giving the ball away every time he gets it would help . Hopefully class will tell and he will lash in a 20 yarder.

 

[Darlo1973]

Who would you take off?

Nobody yet.

 

[summaz]

Love the tabs me

Big smerk.

 

[SuperKevsLeftBoot]

Le Fee having another off game today but overall most are good so far.

What!? Hahaha don’t talk daft. He’s been immense defensively .. worked his bllx off

 

[Balti Man]

We really needed to score in first 25. We've let them build possession and gain momentum. We needed to be more aggressive and not let them settle.

We need to start going at them or eventually one of their crosses will count.

 

[RossTheNinja]

Just popped out back for a tab, smells proper summery, freshly cut grass, leaves and the likes.

They must have changed how they grow the tobacco then

 

[wrighty]

The worry is, if we keep allowing balls in the box, one’s going to bounce nicely sooner or later for one of their players.

That’s the concern. They ve had too much joy and we are so sloppy when we get the ball

 

[yamar1]

Yup he's a liability.

Aye if anyone goes off it has to be him.

 

[eejit]

SKP is right about them doubling up on Hume from Sakamoto crosses. Roberts giving him little cover. Not sure who else could do it though. Maybe we should go back 5.

 

[Hendon Mad Frog]

Usual wank in here

Strange thing to wank over marra

 

[Flea Market Trader]

He’s committed one foul and another which the lad knew it was him and hoyed himself since his yellow. Another and he’ll walk. Needs replacing at half-time.

If ever there was a change needed at half time it is now with Roberts. I can’t see him lasting if he’s kept on the pitch with him diving in the way he is while on a yellow for diving in.

 

[Fetch Fletch]

Big smerk.

Handy when I want to start self harming after reading this thread

 

[jaxaxe]

At what point should we deploy the lucky poos ?

 

[zidanny]

Le Fee having another off game today but overall most are good so far.

Odd ? Defensively he’s been class. Not had the opportunity to do anything going forward yet. What more do you want in a game like this where he clearly has a job to do.
