Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Sheffield United FC – Wednesday 1st January 2025 - KO 20:00

A ball being fired into a crowded area means there's little time for anyone to shout, make decisions or react ...

... only O'Nien did anything and got it wrong, shame it happens.

 

No what I said was I still didn’t know, tbh I haven’t watched it back enough. So if you post me a video now which proves it then fine. I haven’t seen conclusive proof but maybe I haven’t watched it enough for that. My first instinct was that the ball was going to Moore. You blamed onien 100% and said he should’ve been subbed at half time. Now you “understand his predicament “ wtf does that mean? You admitting you were wrong to blame him?
As I say, I haven’t gone into enough detail the replays, hence my comment, you obviously meticulously watched them back. I was more focussed on full sowed and what I thought at the time

 

I don't blame O'Nien as you say he made a decision. You would've thought that players in a better position would've called it, maybe they did it maybe they didn't we'll probably never find out. Like I said, it didn't cost us and it's definitely in the past for me

 

Laughing at this. Monty isn't an example of anyone but Monty! I always say it but he once asked if we thought Mbappe would come if the club put a loan deal together! Mbappe ffs!

 

There you go again changing your mind again, you said it on at least 2 occasions Moore would've put it in as I said you always think your right even when proved wrong, I've noticed this in your posts the last couple of months. I'm not helping you out posting links on here go and do it yourself as I know what you said. I've never blamed 09 for anything in the time he's been here only his bad 1st half on Wednesday so saying I had an agenda against him was pathetic but that doesn't surprise me when it's said from someone like you, wrong again but I'm sure you won't admit it. Can't be arsed to argue with you now as you'll never admit what you said, typical politician.

 

I don’t know 100%, the assumption I made was not from meticulously watching it back, it was my first and second impression from the real time and the first couple of replays of the goal, my “agenda” post was aimed at anyone blaming onien for that goal, which you did, and have now said you “saw his predicament” accepting you were probably wrong. I haven’t changed my mind at all as, like I say, I haven’t watched it back enough where exactly the ball was going. I didn’t single you out individually, as you were not alone, I posted it as an impression from that. I have no reason to go looking for a video, I am not saying I don’t believe you, nor have I re the Moore comment, just gave an opinion from what I have seen.

“Someone like you”? Explain that please? I am a fan, who supports the team and gets behind them , and a positive fan too. Should I apologise for that?

you literally said he was solely to blame for their goal. He should’ve left a dangerous spinning cross into our box which, as far as he knows, could’ve gone to anyone. Maybe you don’t have an agenda, but that type of comment certainly makes it sound like you do. If I am wrong in that then I apologise, it was just how it felt at the time.

 

Ill ask you now where did I say "solely" cause that is totally bollocks, you on the other hand did on 2 occasions say Moore would of scored if 09 left it in fact you said he would "tap it in" which was a ridiculous statement.
I recognized that 09 couldn't really do much else after I watched it back after the game finished but you are still saying today that had it been left Moore would score. Now you're backtracking in what you did say, not asking you to apologise just admit you got it wrong what you said instead of denying it.
On another note does everyone have an "agenda" when they have an opinion on a players performance, even some that haven't blamed a player before ever. Think you need to find out what "agenda" means

 

I'd be horrified if he was at Sunderland, he slows down every attack with his hold up play imo ...

... the Sheff Utd fans can't wait to see the back of him.

 

FFS man! Well my point was that anyone blaming onien for the goal had an agenda. It is literally how it felt at the time. And , as I have qualified multiple times above, I am assuming Moore would’ve got it based on what I have watched back! You are literally having a massive argument with me despite telling you that. I am not spending time finding a replay that shows it as I have to **** on with YouTube crap and I cannot watch them on here. It’s really not worth it. I’ll take your word for it ok?

Regardless of what I am saying today, you are having a go at me for something I did during a game which I did not single you out for btw, and I was not alone in thinking people blaming onien were wrong to do so. But I am “somebody like you”? (Well avoided by the way! I haven’t argued with anyone on here for ages until today so not sure what you mean by my posts over the last few months).

I post opinions, all my own. My opinion is that Onien should not be held at all responsible for, and that is where this started. The Moore thing is irrelevant as it’s an assumption I made based on what I have seen. Yet you are the one going on about it and calling me a polite or changing my mind, I haven’t, as I haven’t seen anything and won’t bother going looking, truly isn’t worth it mate.

My agenda comment was said during the game and only that, more based on the things that people said on x But you took it to heart. Sorry. It was how it felt. Not worth ruining a thread over!

If you’re there on Sunday I’ll probably be in the Museum about an hour before kick off, will buy you a pint

 

Made absolutely no difference at all tbf.

 

Very poor game imo, wasted a lot of balls.

 

I
Yep. And of course the mistakes were caused by us putting pressure on the ball.

 

Sheff Utd made loads but we finished the stronger team tbf.

 

He's the best player of his type we have ...

... I'd be horrified to see him leave.

 

So did they, could've been 3 or 4-1 to Sunderland tbf.

 

Haway lads, we won and did bloody well against a team with parachute payments and a new owner that no doubt will throw money at it.

Concentrate on Sunday now

 

Just watched the entire 90 minutes with Frankie and Danny.

I have to say I love it all ....

...Frankie is fanatically blinkered and Danny is the knowledgeable 'voice of reason'.

I'd happily watch the game with either of them.

 

Nah thanks, what makes you think I'd want to spoil my day with an annoying person like yourself, enjoy yourself in the museum as I'll be drinking with my mates.
Any other time though is not a problem for me though if I'm available.

 

Ok. They are still very very good players. I would have both here.

 

Any idea why Burrows wasn’t starting? I didn’t take much notice of their side at the time
