*~*~* Sunderland v Swansea match thread *~*~*

Really disappointing performance. We're sitting too deep. I know he's out of position but Browne was atrocious. I thought he'd have better passing ability. Steady, bog standard Championship midfielder, though.

Harrison Jones didn't take his chance at all. Far too conservative and timid.

 

[PaddySAFC97]

Gutless pathetic performance today.

 

[Geppetto]

Give it a rest Keith. We deserved F-All for a dreadful performance. Created nowt and deserved nowt.
Well beaten by a poor team. We've been crap since Christmas really.

It's true though, it wasn't a free kick for their goal and we should have had a penalty. We could have won the game if truth be told.

 

[alunb]

How do you explain us having 76 points then?

Le Bris masterpiece

Browne was shocking

As if people are turning on RLB man

 

[radjee gadjee]

Its going to be milwall in the final

Vs who ?

 

[MiddleAgedMan]

That is the first ever time I have not seen a referee fall for the fake keeper injury. Well done him for that. More should take note

 

[matt228]

Poor performance today, but I think RLB has decided to minimise the risk of injuring anyone before the playoffs and I can't blame him for being timid. We will play better when it counts for something.

 

[radjee gadjee]

stadium empty 10 mins before end an, every time. embarrassing

FFS give it a rest man !!!!

I’ve got to say I’m more disappointed with Reggies tactics than the result. We should be experimenting & playing without fear in these dead rubbers. Boring shite tactics, Isidor completely isolated.

 

[Hodgie1979]

SInce xmas ive lost count how many times ive walked out saying thats the worst game of the season to be trumped by the next game.
And ive renewed i must be mad ffs.

 

[englishman abroad]

Browne was shocking

Isador, Watson, Rigg, Neil, Jones also all very poor

Maybe we'll get £10mil for Jones to someone like Brighton

 

[FatDrummer]

The players are believing the tiredness and rest hype.

And where did this hype come from?
Haven’t really heard it from Le Bris….and not at all from the players.

 

[KEV_SAFC_FTM]

Insult to attending fans that, especially the international fans. Yes, the result means nothing in the grand scheme, but at least try to look interested. Nothing whatsoever there. No passion, no commitment, no intensity, no movement, no skill (baring Roberts and Le Fey). Nothing.

The last three games we’ve had to try something. What has happened, we’ve had EXACTLY the same performance in all three. Created nothing and never looked like scoring (and baring a goalkeeping mistake at West Brom, we wouldn’t have).

It’s the same benchmark for the opposition isn’t it? Sit back, sick back, watch Sunderland go backwards and sideways for a bit then score a soft one from a set piece. Win 1-0.

At least try to go at teams. Try to attack and don’t worry if you concede in doing so.

What would happen if we had a goal or two deficit to turn around in the second leg of the playoffs? Can you really see us attacking and getting at a team in the hope of restoring parity. Not a hope in hell.

Not a hope in hell we will win the play offs either, and you can bookmark this.

 

[radjee gadjee]

He’s a busted flush, we picked him up from a team relegated to ligue 2 because we wouldn’t spend on our top choices. Get rid and give us a fighting chance.

Put your bottle down and gan to bed ya fool !!!

 

[stan the man]

Keeper was gobsmacked

Swansea still didn't kick the ball out to give him the attention he desperately needed

 

[ontap]

Get a grip ffs. It was a nothing game , we gave jones samed Alex of and hjelde game time. Next 4 games mean nothing as long as we are ready gor the play offs.
