Match Day Thread Sunderland v Charlton Athletic - Sunday 26th May - KO 15:00

Speaking of which it seems to have gone all quiet on the Barnsley fracas or is it just the CPS dragging their feet.

 

I will be cheering you for once, and it seems whenever I do cheer a team on-a-one-off-basis that team always wins.

 

Well if that's the case why did we play in gold and Charlton in red in 1998 and we finished higher than them ?

 

This is due to a newly founded thing called a "rule change"

This is where authorities decide on the rule in question and whether it should be changed and, if the vote goes the right way, the rule gets changed.

I know it's something that is brand new but, now they've invented it, you know for future reference

 

He's out on bail. That's usually for 4 - 6 weeks to allow the police to continue with their enquiries and put a case together.

 

Can’t be arsed to start a thread for it, but sweet Jesus the new home kit is absolutely rascal like.

Worst one yet for me, doesn’t even resemble Sunderland.

Kudos to Betdaq for giving the shirt sponsorship to a charity mind.

 

Actually doesn’t look nearly as bad on that shot. Still not a fan but not as bad as I thought

 

prefer the black away kit any day to that ......its crap wont be buying that

 

Agree about Betdaq, although its a pity its so small it'll be unnoticable

 

There's a plane come down in the next village along to me. Sad times

 

Arrangements all made, hotel, travel, tickets, mates ...

... everything is in place for a great weekend, just need the team to show up and play the football we know they can.

Charlton panic under pressure and we know we can score.

As long as Wyke is supported by the midfield and full backs we'll make chances. I don't mind long balls up to Wyke as long as we get Maguire, Power, etc looking for the knockdown ... they both have a good shot on them and their keeper isn't the best imo.

If we also have McGeady and Watmore to call on we surely must score.

After that it's down to Big John and the defence/Cattermole. Ozturk has finally proved me right and he could be our MOTM as I thought he was at Portsmouth.

Haway the Lads.

 

My concern about Wyke was that I've not seen him win a contested header. Gives a lot of fouls away. On the other hand Charltons centre halfs are not as strong as Portsmouths so hopefully he can do the business.

 

He won a fair few at Portsmouth which he had to chase himself, got a standing ovation tbf.

 

Langley Park? False alarm apparently.

 

Was it? I just seen this mate

 

I see your County Durham Alert, and raise you a Consett Police.......

A report that a microlight plane may have crashed in the Langley Park area was a well-intentioned false alarm, police can confirm.

Officers were called to reports of a distressed signal from a microlight shortly after 4.30pm yesterday (May 21) and the National Police Air Service, firefighters and ambulance personnel joined in the search for the aircraft.

The search was concluded at 9.15pm after discovering the call was a false alarm made with good intent.

He did have a very good second half. I defiinately don't doubt his effort, which is what I wanted for a few seasons.
