I thought we We're ****ing ****. Hull was the better team but any team in the league would be better if they played that team poyet pick. Virgin, Bridcock and graham are a ****ing joke. If any **** sticks up for them then they need putting down. I thought the ref was decent for once and one more thing, Poyet out now. The man is a ****ing clueless ****.
If you scroll back through this thread, you'll see some of your own fans thought Bridcutt was lucky not to get a red, it was a shocker of a tackle. Cattermole's was a petulant flick, he'd have been very unlucky to get sent off for it. Rodwell says 'it hit my arm, luckily the ref gave it' - http://www.fourfourtwo.com/news/equaliser-hull-hit-my-arm-rodwell?
Aye Hull were far better They were crap - we were crap - end of (using your words) - we had 60% of the ball at their place and, according to a number of posters on the HULL board, only one team looked like winning in the second half and it wasn't Hull! We were the better side for the second half and were terrible for the first - but they were as bad in the second as we were in the first and no better in the first than we were in the second - but I guess, you being a negative fan, wouldn't see any of that as you want us to go down! Saying the ref was decent is a joke too and shows your colours - the goal they scored came from a free-kick (and subsequent yellow) for a perfectly times challenge - if you think that's good refereeing then you're an idiot! Yellow cards for almost every Sunderland foul yet Jelavic leads with his arm into O'Shea's face and get's nothing? He sends Poyet off for kicking over a water bucket but doesn;t send Bruce off for pushing the linesman? Yeah great refereeing! Graham was no worse than Defoe by the way - but Neither of them got the ball much in the first half
Lambretta - "HItting your arm" is not handball - it has to be intentional or, if not, then assist in the end product - it did neither - it was completely accidental and, even if it hadn't hit his arm, it would've been a goal. He headed it onto his own arm which was already out there - Even Gary Birtles said it was no handball. Bridcutt was lucky - although he was never going to hurt anyone as his feet were on the ground and he played the ball - it was two footed and he jumped in. Meyler put his head into Cattermole's face with no punishment though - either could be a red card
Aguero had one disallowed for that the other week didn't he? It was going in anyhow then it hit his arm and it got disallowed.
Last night gave me hope of survival despite our obvious problems ..... Hull are a very poor side playing lower league style football in the PL. Their fixtures look awkward from now on and, if they can't beat us, won't win many. The supporters trudged into the ground, sat there in virtual silence & trudged out at the end, it was a bizarre experience. As news of the Villa winner came through there were various moans of, 'That's it, we're as good as down' Fair enough, if you're not interested, we'll have your place
I be a little careful on that score, you were the quietest sell-out away end at the KC this season, by the end of the first half, you were all sat in complete silence. You've obviously got great travelling support, but last night it was very subdued(hardly surprising given that first half performance).
I watched the match in a bar in Ryhope and all you could hear was the Sunderland fans until they scored..
I didn't think the ref got any of the major decisions wrong, I was just pointing out the irony of Sunderland fans claiming he was biased.
You are having a laugh aren't you? On the TV all you could here was the Sunderland fans in full voice..
I know you get wound up about the SOL, but that was weird last night .......... we even out sang them as, and immediately after, they scored. It was the worst home support I've witnessed for a long time.
I'm saying the ref did not in any way decide the outcome of last nights game and anyone who thinks he did is clueless.
