    Couldn't have put it better myself.
    Bruce makes a rod for his own back, when he plays so negatively.

    Now with this we can most certainly agree...I honestly think that being too cautious is Bruce's major problem. I'm hopeful that he will have learnt from the Mags and Swansea games, and with Bendtner now at his disposal, will play a more attacking formation in future.

    We can but hope mate.
    Bruce's tactics have always been my bugbear.

    At times I think it is only the hope that keeps my sanity intact, although there are probably those who would argue I lost that years ago...<laugh>

    Agree with the caution theme! You very rarely see 2 Sunderland players in the opposition box other than for corners. The midfield rarely commit to a forward run and seem happy to contain the opposition.

    However I think Gardner may break the mould. Although he didn't score at Swansea, he was always making a forward run.

    There is some hope :)

    My God - War & Peace wasn't as long as this - mind it gives this a run for being nearly as boring. <yawn>

    A few observations (I'm determined to do this as I've spent 30 mins reading this), first, CEST and others are not SB supporters - ok - we know this. If anybody has the coin, buy the club, sack him - if not, what'ya gonna do?

    Second, this IS SB's squad now, he rightly stands to be judged on what happens this season, not now, not in a couple of months but towards the end.

    Third, SB does make a rod for his own back at times, explaining what and why might help? might not, but would be nice to hear. Don't agree that we HAVE to stick to 442, we should change according to opposition/situation, flexibility!!

    Fourth, and last. I believe we are all passionate about the entity that is SAFC, let's keep things together and SUPPORT SAFC. Bloodletting and violence are for them up the road <ok>?

    Six points from our next two games will put most things right...all us fans might just be all singing from the same hymn-sheet!!!We could always sing "fight the good fight"!!!!

    Allo Roker hows it goin ? Down here at the mo mate its gone mad, rumours are abound that Moyes is about to walk possibly within the next 48hrs,it would seem he was informed of the Arteta deal at 9.30 last night which has pissed him off. Mr Henderson is all of a sudden the golden boy of LFC and the Bellamy signing has not gone down well at all among the Kopites. But certainly worrying times at Goodison mate

    Too right we do kidda. Lets hope we can both be happy for the next few weeks and Nickolas does the business in front of goal. I'd love to be soooooo wrong about Bruce mate.

    Just seems to me Cest, you just have to have something to moan about.
    I've known women who moan less.
