Only 6 subs on the bench today, if thats not a message to Ellis that we need money for reinforcements, then I don't know what is
If true. (No reason to believe it's not) It's a frigging disgrace. Saves a few quid on the hotel bill. So an extra £100to spend in the window.
don't we have a flu bug ravaging through the squad? thought most squads are having problems with bugs this year.
Great idea use our one chance of any sort of a cup run to prove a point not sure the lads down there will be appreciating it mate.
I agree with this. A club that has been in the PL for 5 years should NEVER have to start a match without a full bench of subs, regardless of who we are playing.
Got out of jail today, and where are the new signings?. Get in 3 quality players before the 4th round. Lets get on another cup run and end this 40 year wait.
I wonder if the youth team had a match today? Well MON has been saying how thin on the ground the squad is................ If anyone wants to take a look at some of the Youth squad you could just check out the fast food outlets around Fulwell/Roker or even the entrance to Morrisons at Seaburn. Seriously, some (but not all)they cadge money from their house parents and then go and spend it on fast food in lieu of the meals they would be getting in their digs. Apparently since Bally stopped being involved with the youth squad the discipline has gone out of the window.
We were comfirtably the better side going forward today. 2 meaningful attacks by them but we had two thirds of possession and their keeper made a couple of cracking saves otherwise this could've been a good win. Well I'll see you's at the replay
We've spent millions on our academy, why not put a few on the bench for experience. We've got a few good prospects!
Noble is not in Martys good books, turns up late to training all the time. Laing has been injured, Adams is out on loan and was up against Aaron Lennon today. Saha was out shopping or something.
