Two Weeks Today

[chuckyroll]

That's complete shit mate. If we kept hold of just 3 leads that we'd taken, we would have went up champions. Defence cost us.

If we had scored another goal or 2 it wouldn't have mattered !

 

[Gloucester]

Last time we were in this league with Gates and Gabbiadini we scored:

7 on two occasions
4 on six occasions
3 on six occasions

Jack Ross needs to take note that if we are going to win this league then every game should not turn into a hard game to win.

 

[Digsys dinner]

The season starts against the mighty Oxford. Meanwhile we have a weaker squad and kept the same manager that guided us to our worst ever finish in our history.

I very much doubt your dick has ever entered a vagina

I’ll be on a beach in Greece.

 

[chopsfc007]

Or be blindly optimistic to show how great a fan people are.

So unless your negative your blindly optimistic

I'll be lying next to the pool.

Me too in Mijas

Wasn't one of those 7 in the Cup though?

TBF we won a Championship with Mick McCarthy a level higher and I think we scored 5 once in a flukey home win against Plymouth and scored 4 twice grinding out many victories by the odd goal and keeping clean sheets. We done it that way as we had some good players in some positions like Arca, Mhyre, Breen, McCartney, Whitehead for that level but not many were outstanding like Gates, Gabbiadini, Owers, Bennett were in Division three and we didn't have the same level of fire power, as we don't have now. There's more similarities with the McCarthy side now than there is with a side containing Gates and Gabbiadini.

So are you saying that the 4 burge let in were all his fault

No but at least two were.

I don't need reminding.

Shitting a brick about the new season.

Yp think every player should be aold because we didn't get promoted

 

[Dilligaf60]

Given your eulogising of O'Nien what would it say to you if the manager didn't share those views?

I would say our manager seems reluctant to change unless it’s forced upon him. ( generalisation by the way )

And look what happened the following season at the higher level after promotion

This this and this again.

We should never be too arogant (see up the road) but we should take this league by the scruff of the neck. We sould attack teams, particularly at the SOL, and let people be frightrened about coming up to play here instead of it being a nice day out for them.

 

[ShieldsBlackCat2015]

Yp think every player should be aold because we didn't get promoted

Not all at once. As scary as it sounds we need a team of some kind. Together they didn't work. They struggled to manage to cope with life even in League One. A league every one of us, including me, fully expected a club of our size to easily deal with. Ok we cant cope with the Championship. Surely League 1 should be easier for Sunderland AFC. It even wasn't here.

 

[Sid]

All my instincts are crying out to have 09 as a No 10, I honestly believe he would be the making of the front two, and the team as a whole.

Don't see him in that position tbh. He isn't the creative, link up type player that's needed there. Maguire and McGeady are good fits for that role but just don't see it with O'Nien who is more box to box with his energy rather than the flair type that's needed for a 10 role.

 

[riffraff]

I’ll be lying in the back garden with a beer in my hand. Why waste the good weather here by going abroad? Keep the hols for the later in the year.

 

[stephen cartwright]

Wouldn’t say we are weaker.

Slightly weaker in midfield with Cattermole gone but slightly stronger in defence with Willis in.

Would say we are on par overall last season really.


Should always tell the truth mate, lying can catch up on you...

Been snapped up yet that midfielder?

 

[Mowgli]

So unless your negative your blindly optimistic

Or alternatively... if you arent super positive then you negative.

What a stupid comment.
