    At 1-0 I'd have been happy with a draw. Due to the score At half time a draw feels like a loss

    Irrelevant. When negative things happen fair dos, but when positive thing happen you still make negative comments, you're the very definition of a boo boy. Boo Boy Buxton.

    No doubt the clueless **** will keep his job on the back of a draw. 1 win in 13 is ****ing disgraceful. He can't even see us to victory in a game we scored three goals in the first half.

    If hes here much longer it will be too late.

    Bain's chummy friendship with Grayson is very worrying

    Not having a go Marcus but the idea of being 'happy' with a draw at Brentford after being one down shows how low we've sunk

    Be interesting to see across the line. He looks ahead of the defence when the ball is hit.

    Disappointed we couldn't win a game for once. Sick of my mood lurching around between 3 and 5 and ending up depressed every time.

    What's that though, 3 games unbeaten? That's something.

    No arguments. The way we've collapsed on a number of occasions (Ioswich?) then being 1-0 down and fighting back to draw would've been good. Not got much luck on our side at the moment and could do with some!

    Give him 6 more games. If we don't win at least 2 then it should be curtains. God knows who we could go for like. Mancini anyone?

    Not a bad result this, its the home form we need to nail, a win at home will make this a good result, but losing from a winning position is always a downer. On the positive side, we are slowly coming to terms with this league, which has been much harder than expected tbh.

    As I've said, I'd rather be realistic. I don't see today as progress bu rather a step in the obvious direction of relegation. I think having watched Sunderland for 47 years I can pick up on the signs of things going very bad. As I mentioned earlier, things now have more than a whiff of the Lawrie Mac era. It seems so obvious.

    I'll be positive when the winds change. However, I can't see that anytime soon. Trust me if I could sense something positive was on the horizon, I would shout it from the rooftops.

    Anyway, call me a booboy, if you like. I would call it realism. I know we have different opinions and that's ok. I would love o be proved wrong<ok>

    Here we go, balanced.

    I'll take the away point like. Positives unbeaten in three, come from behind in the last three. We've goals in us and we're working hard. The negatives and the things we need to see improvement. Keeping a bloody lead, we don't get the lead often but we need to learn to keep our cool and remain organised. Teams chasing the lead always turn the screw, back to the age old problem of our defence coping under pressure.

    Still loads of time, still not calling for graysons head. There is improvement evident. We're harder to beat, we're scoring goals, we're constantly working hard and we're getting ourselves back into games. Need to start seeing improvement on not conceding first, and keeping it together under pressure. That last one is problem going back half a decade, not easy fix, will take time. But we're definitely improving no matter what the boo boys say imo.
