    Twins O/T

    Didn't want to make this sound like me and the mrs are on the rocks.....rock bottom as in knackered, tetchy etc. Keep strong.

    Twins O/T

    I have 14 week old twins, to be honest me and mrs hit rock bottom 3 weeks back, at that stage asked for help from family, my mum came down from seaham, we started to spread feeds out, put them down at night straight away, feed in dark and tried to dictate to them (granted not the easiest). They...

    Ryan Taylor on Twitter

    I'd put Perch in the over react bracket. Only used him as a more recent incident and not an attempt to get a rise.....my comments are more towards RT telling it as it and I guess commenting on behalf of all football fans regardless of their team colours.

    Ryan Taylor on Twitter

    There are times when players will dive/over react, Perch for one and to even it up Larsson for SAFC (v Wolves at their place). This said Young has done it one too many times now which places him in the 'Cheat' category.....Fair play to Taylor, not my favourite guy (purely football reasons) but...

    LIFE'S A PITCH ... Sunderland defender Phil Bardsley.

    Went on the Man City tour last week (Mrs is a season card holder their) where they made reference to ground staff/nominated best in prem etc. They mentioned 'implanting' plastics blades in the soil, grass roots then wrap round making grass stronger....City have had concerts at their ground so...

    Cattermole

    Reminded me of his Chelsea performance last year, just proves he doesn't need to dive in on every tackle....the benchmark has been set.

    Do You Lot Actually Like Cattermole

    I can't see MON sticking with him, too many cards that makes him even less effective during the game....doesn't seem to learn from one week to the next. MON will not take that....SB probably felt duty bound to play given he bought, gave him the captaincy etc

    Embarrassing

    Ji is crap, Bendtner doesn't look interested, Cattermole looks spent and collectively as a team we have imploded again. Fingers crossed for 2-2. MON has his work cut out where SB has left him with far too many average players; Noble has to start against Blackburn.

    Article on Bruce

    Article from the Guardian that I found on twitter - decent read albeit probably things we already knew. http://m.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2011/nov/30/steve-bruce-sunderland-sacked?cat=football&type=article

    Okay, here's the deal.

    So it has come down to the board taking it 2-games at a time....where's the vision in that? Say we win both and then lose the next 10 is that satisfactory given the 2-games won. 30-points taken in 30-prem games in 2011...that is relegation form (where 2-transfers windows passed too). We all...

    The 2011 record

    Total games: 30 Total poss points: 90. Wins: 8 (27%) Draws: 6 (20%) Lost: 16 (53%) Points: 30 Cup run (ha ha ha): 2-games, knocked out at the first hurdle. Putting all emotions of the Wigan game to one-side that is the problem...Bruce out is not a knee-jerk but the fans recognising we...

    Bendtners having a stinker

    Agree Bendtner was poor but why does he do it for his country - surely SB's tactics can't be wrong.....?
  15. BlackCat-as-trophy

    Surely that´s it?

    Why the hell is ES leaving early....he's the f'in chairman not the England manager (not that he'd know where the SoL is).....all will be forgiven if he was preparing the brown envelope/was putting SB's stuff in a cardboard box for him.....I wouldn't even let the useless Geordie tw*t have a...
