    Rusyn worked his socks off. I think good things will come with him in the team for the 2nd part of the season

    Me too, although I do think that the SoL looks awful when the early leavers vacate their seats and it must have an effect on the players.

    Got to feel for Scum Utd...How their season started-

    Possible Champions league winners

    Possible Carabou Cup winners

    Possible Title contenders

    How their season actually ends.

    Winners of the

    "We beat Championship club Sunderland Cup."

    They must be thrilled.

    aye he put some graft in. Chasing down lost balls, hopeless balls he had no real chance of getting, I like that.

    I’d rather go for a pint than watch a spineless performance if I’m honest.

    Maybe just stay in the pub if you think today was "spineless"

    He's been a big positive the last 2 weeks. If he can get 10 goals between now and may it will be very useful.

    All part and parcel of the game mate. People leave for a number of reasons, travelling, superstition etc, not me like, I want my monies worth. I'm sure the players know the crack.

    looks a strong lad. You can tell he's using his personal situation in his game, he has a never give up, try harder look about him. He'll do well here.

    Honestly mate I could settle for mediocrity it would make my life much easier but I just can’t. Fair play to you for accepting it.

    I can’t stand unreasonableness. Booing someone before the kick a ball is crap and I said so :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Can't understand why given the dodgy sportswash 450 million v the modest 15m young team rebuild.

    Yeah, I was thinking that. Alongside it taking a while for his family to come over, he must look at what's going on back home and think "I've got to make people proud if I'm lucky enough not to be involved in that".

    Half arsed attitudes in arguably the biggest game of the season. You could’ve given the midfield a 5 minute headstart and they still would’ve been nowhere near theirs.

    Mental like because apparently we have 2 midfielders in Neil and Ekwah that most of you wouldn’t accept £20m for. Reality check.

    You clearly weren't that impressed though, spending the evening after a derby win on a Sunderland board. ****ing weirdo
