Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Coventry City – Play-off Semi Final 2nd leg Tuesday 13th May 2025 - KO 20:00

I know it’s been said already but the clubs media and marketing team have done an incredible job through this tie. We’re worlds away from the tinpot club we were under the previous owners

 

I’ll have my old lambtons sponsor asics shirt on tonight

HAWAYYYYYYY

 

fantastic, thanks buddy. On way to airport and looking that one up now

 

I’m finishing work at 6 and straight to Sunderland from Chester le street. Hopefully have time to catch up with a few wherever you may be for a beer

 

just spotted it’s a 10 minute walk from our Airbnb- perfect . Thanks mate

 

Loving the comments this morning. Everyone in the same boat. This club man. You can't explain to people (talking specifically about my Mrs) what it means to us all. Sometimes, only sometimes it's what gets me through the week.

Come on lads. Leave it all out there. Win, lose or draw I'll be there next season. HWTL.

 

Hoi, manners

 

She's already said I'm not concentrating... I said "It's MatchDay"... she's not happy

 

Have we discussed penalties yet. If it gets to that stage. Who will have the balls to step up. Who do we think will score? Who do we think might not? So hoping it doesnt get to that stage.

 

somebody had to didn’t they

 

Don’t think I’d have the balls to stay in my seat

 

Not going there

 

Difficult to say really because the 11 on the pitch could be so varied dependant on what happens in the game.

Despite our poor record of late, I dont think itll be a case of having the balls to step up. Hume, Jobe, Onien, Isidor, Mayenda, Mundle, Roberts will all look to take one imo.

As previously said though, lets get the job done in the 90 please.

 

this is what it’s all about man

make it hard as possible

that’s why you get your pitch size preference et.

 

Ban

 

can’t let them score first man

 

I initially took us for a 0-2 in the first leg and a 1-1 draw at home. Think I will stick by the 1-1 but after watching the first leg would not be surprised at us repeating the same score line at home and coming out as 2-1 victors on the night and 4-2 overall.
I am trying my best not to get too carried away with it all, but it is difficult as the butterflies kick in and the emotion takes over.
Whatever the outcome I can honestly say that this has been one of the most enjoyable seasons in a very very long time, and regardless of results the players have already earned our respect and support 'TILL THE END'
