    Yeah I’m pretty disgusted at some comments I’m seeing on here and on twitter.

    If we are done. It’s time to just give Max Thompson a chance - what harm can it do? I’d rather do that than some plodder getting one last pay day

    Our form without an available striker was 10 points out of 10 games, that is relegation form. Hope to God we can keep Gelhardt fit for the remainder of the season.

    Well said that man...

    Yes we have recruited some good players...

    However in imho, we have failed where it counts most.

    That's my feeling mate, not sure what people expect in first season promoted. Don't even know how many goals the lads we've signed will score. It's not absolutely ideal but looks awesome compared to 2 years ago. We have spent 4 seasons with virtually no income. Which club is in an ideal position? Really don't understand the moaning, I'm delighted, perhaps naive, but each to their own

    Is what it is. Again, I'd rather sign no-one than just anyone. Maybe Speakman can explain what happened, but losing Simms ad Stewart was just rotten luck. No option but to get behind the lads and see what is achievable

    Not as much will be achievable if the goals dry up with no strikers. Nobody will fear us and they will look to dominate games.

    We just need an option. An actual 9. A loan to get us through to re consider options in the summer. All of our attacking players player better when playing off a 9. I won't accept a single player in world football was not available on a loan.

    He had 30 days since Simms went, again the plan looks like it was to have 2 strikers only with Stewart and Gelhardt, the gamble hasn't worked again. I just hope the young lad is up for the fight.

    It’s pretty mental to think we don’t have a striker available to us for the rest of this season who has ever played for Sunderland

    It’s ****ing disgusting

    The board are clearly not particularly bothered about anything on the field now we are safe. I’d we’d have achieved something by chance it would have been a bonus for them but it isn’t a real goal

    Horrific attitude when fans are still going to attend 18 more games

    Where have I said you are a mag for thinking it’s ridiculous for having one striker?

    Exactly this!!! a plodder better than no one. Just someone to jump for the ball up top and hold it up. Goes miles further than jack Clarke playing there. We couldn’t break Shrewsbury Town down until Stewart came on. I think it’s important to call mistakes out.

    If it's just a case of having a body in the box we might as well play O9 there
