The bigger worry is who blabbed the starting line up to The Sun. Poor from Gus if it was him, would have thought more likely to be a member of staff or player
 
Pathetic decision from the club, really embarrassing.

When the Mags banned papers we all laughed at them and (rightly) thought it was pathetic, and now we're doing it.

Ashamed of the club this morning
 
Comical from SAFC, newspaper banned for CORRECTLY naming the team is a new one on me, yet another embarrassing episode for SAFC under the watch of Margaret Byrne. This would never have happened under Sir Niall's tenure.

Not even in the same league, mags banned nearly all local press for covering anti cashely walk, we ban one national for obvious risks to the hopes of us staying up.

The Mags banned their local paper and also haven't had to put up with the coverage we've been given since we ditched the media's chum O'Neill and brought in Di Canio. The Sun dedicated 2 or 3 front pages to Di Canio, helped blow the story out of proportion and nearly forced his resignation and what would have been almost certain relegation. This was probably the final straw. I don't know what the 'rules' are on naming teams before the official announcement, but it doesn't happen often, particularly when there's been so many changes and the manager is looking to spring a surprise. Maybe the decision to ban them was a little OTT but I can understand why they did it
 
The only reason that might be justified is if this particular journalist deliberately breached a confidence, after agreeing not to. Even then, the club should sanction the journalist and not the paper.

As far as I can tell, we don't know that this happened. He could've got the info in any number of ways outside of pure guesswork, any of which would make this ridiculous from the club.
 
Just picked up The Sun and saw this on the back page. Poor crack.

It also says Cattermole leaks info but not in this instance?
 
Good - shit paper which shouldn't be read by any football fan quite frankly.
 
Manager Poyet was furious we correctly predicted his team for Wednesday’s Premier League clash at Liverpool — claiming a Sunderland mole had leaked us the line-up.
The only mole we know of at Sunderland is skipper Lee Cattermole and we are happy to confirm he had nothing to do with our story.

Nice professionalism... :evil::evil:

Nation's favourite paper, says who? :eek::lol:
 
Don't know if this has been said already

SAFC 'Haway Sun Editor, who is the leak at the club'

SUN EDITOR 'Not tellin'

SAFC 'Get te fuck then and stay away until you release the name to us so we can take disciplinary'
