Eh, that isn’t how it works? Did you go to the cup final in 2014 believing we’re better than Man City? Ha’way man.
OK mate, whatever ... this forum is becoming a total waste of f*cking time tbh. I'm sick to death of all the boring predictable negativity. Over to you, I'm just not going to bother with it any more ... ... it's so joyless one here these days.
I don’t think we’re the best team in the playoffs, for me that’s delusionary, as per the league table, but I have complete faith that we can win them. And I have complete faith we can beat Sheff Utd and Coventry.
That's how some people are different I guess. I never lie to my logic or what I see as the truth. If I can look at something, consider the facts and then come to a conclusion then that's it. I won't ignore all of that just because it's the team I am a fan of and I want them to win.
I think some of us think that on VE Day of all days we should just have a bit of fight for our own team.
Delusional? That's a new one. 45 years I've spent watching the lads and never thought of my faith and belief as.being delusional Every days a school day
Look at the squad they had tonight. Vini Souza, Hamer and Ahmedhodzic are PL level players right now. Cooper, Peck and Burrows will have long careers at the top level. O'Hare was one of Coventrys best players for years. Choudhury has played a load of games in the PL and at the top end of the Championship. Holding and Tom Davies the same. Brewster and Cannon cost a combined £30m+ and they aren't even that good. Moore will be on top level wages for the level. Campbell just needed a club to thrive at, always showed signs of being a good player at Stoke. They should be going up.
Seriously lads, I get pretty wound up by the negativity but this pile on because people have praised Sheff Utd, in a thread where Sheff Utd have won an away game 3-0, is pretty ridiculous. People can think Sheff Utd are the best team in the playoffs and are favourites to beat us; whilst at the same time thinking we can beat sheff Utd. It’s not black and white. In the same way if we drew Liverpool in the cup we’d all think the lads have a chance of winning and back them to the hilt to do so.
Ok. I think we are the best team in the play offs, I believe we can win them. If that's OK with everyone
Were we the best side in the premier league the year we came bottom? Because by your logic we have to assume Sunderland are the best just because we support them.
Spot on. It's like the adults leave the room the second anything other than total happy clapper posts are made. Some people genuinely need to grow up and be able to see sides and appreciate the debate. Not just shut people down and call it waste of time because we can see other teams strengths. We all want Sunderland to win!!! But to say it's maybe unlikely due to squad differences or form is absolutely bloody fine.
What's being bottom of the premiership got to do with these play offs? Last time I checked sheff utd, bristol and Coventry are in the play offs with us and I think we are better than all 3 of them
Wtf is going on here. Sheff Utd are better than we are, but that is simply on paper. Think that’s just a fact? No? But we’ve played them twice this season and beat them once and lost once (even if we played brilliantly in the loss). We can beat absolutely anybody on our day, them included. They’re not a concern now, though. All eyes on Coventry. HAWAY THE LADS!
