    Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Aston Villa - Sunday 21st September 2025 - KO 14:00

    I always thought that was an indirect free kick, the ball was intentionally played before he caught it.

    On the train now and the nerves have fully kicked in!

    Match Day Thread Sheffield Wednesday FC v Sunderland AFC – Friday 28th February 2025 - KO 20:00

    Probably in the minority but I think he is playing within himself the last couple of games because of the threat of another card. If he gets one then it is a rest that he probably needs and I'd rather he got stuck in and helps the team a bit more

    Our home crowd

    Totally agree, as poor as we were yesterday there is no need to boo the team, pretty sure the stress of an unbeaten home record has affected performances lately so hoping with that monkey off our backs we can relax and finish strongly. Won't happen if fans keep booing.

    Players arriving for evening kick offs

    Thanks for the Advice, got there for 5.45 and Joe managed to get photos with loads of players and le Bris as a bonus, we really have a fantastic group of players, all happy to chat and make time for the kids. He was buzzing after the game, great result and what a way to snatch an equaliser!

    Players arriving for evening kick offs

    Thanks everyone, going to aim for 5.30 to give him a chance to grab an autograph or two. His first game was a 3-1 to the lads so hoping for a similar result!

    Players arriving for evening kick offs

    Thanks mate really appreciate it, I was thinking around then but hadn't seen the video from Tuesday, wasn't showing in my feed for some reason.

    Players arriving for evening kick offs

    I've got a mate bringing his lad to the Leeds match on Friday, he's been an exile for 20+ years and brought his 12 year old son for his first game last season. I want to take them through early so they can see the players coming in but no idea what time they will start arriving for an evening...

    Summer '24 transfer window

    Had to clear out the loft at my dad's and found a box of memorabilia I'd kept from way back including my ST from the last year at Roker. My son couldn't believe that's what we used to use and you are correct, the tickets for reserve games and cup matches were all in the back of the book.

    New Head Coach

    Heard similar from my Sheffield Utd supporting mate, they were a financial mess this year and had no chance of staying up, with no investment on last season he had no chance. He wouldn't be my choice for manager but I certainly wouldn't be holding this season's form against him.

    A love supreme pro SAFC or anti SAFC

    Always found them pretty balanced tbh. When they criticise the club it's generally on decisions they have got wrong and don't go as overboard as some...

    Winter transfer window

    We did similar with Niel in that season, Jobe had a good game today and good to see him come off when tiring to give rigg minutes

    Winter transfer window

    Jobe looked much better today but agreed he has looked jaded for a few weeks. If he starts I think he needs to be looked after and taken off after 60-70 mins. No doubt he is going to be a top player though.

    Winter transfer window

    Surprised at this, I thought Luton had done it last season but TBF haven't looked at their finances
