Match Day Thread Sunderland v Gillingham - Saturday 9th November - KO 13:00

2 shots on target, the second of which came an hour after the first

that’s the simple reason we struggle to put these teams away.

 

What a surprise Griggs is off

Hopelessly of form all of them

Hey ho... sack the manager?

 

FFS man, another totally pointless game to come

 

Worst possible result.

 

Dreadful what more can you say.

 

These last two performances are just really not good enough. I wasn’t there but it just sounded so flat and uninspired.

Manager has a right job on with these. I’m still hopeful but it’s frustrating to say the least.

 

I’d normally say “at least we didn’t lose” but Christ we didn’t need a replay!! That said, our twitter twatters would probably want Parkinson sacked fir it!!!

 

Just checked and that was O’Niens fourth booking

no idea if this counts towards league games but he’s one away from suspension if it does

 

Good thread all, bar the result and performance, I’m off to stuff my face, pray for a Bournemouth win and watch stelling and the scores

 

No but he does need to sort us out up front, that surely was Griggs last chance, unless PP changes the system.

 

this is gone on from the play off final, what the hell is wrong with this team ? now a 600 mile trip in winter for the supporters as well, and they have to fork out for the 2 now massive league games, players like Grigg should just get hid when not playing for us i would tell to his face how bad he is, i doubt will be the end for us after the Burton game how will they win even one of them games now, still nowt on this investment well the 30,000 will not come back if they do not improve. It's nee good sacking parky either or unless we get Keane back to boot them up the arse

 

Poor result but I'm not surprised by it at all. We need to drop Grigg for McNulty and play McGeady in the middle with Watmore and Gooch on the wings or we're stagnant.

 

Well my soccer six is on. First goal was in the 4th min

I’ll treat you all to a bag of chips if I get the 250000

 

This and this again

 

I'm not going to read too much into cup games v league but that said I'm concerned about the form of McLaughlin and Grigg etc.

It is as someone remarked probably the worst result considering the amount of games in this league.
I never thought i would see the day when i was desperate for us to get into the championship.


Thanks @RTB
I enjoy your match day threads .

 

I’m not sure it will be. Sad thing is, in PP’s first game at home Grigg looked energetic and willing. It’s the ONLY time I can say that since he joined! Not precisely sure what is wrong with him

 

I know this board tries to be positive but dear me we are awful. I try to be optimistic but it is being slowly drawn out of me.

I really am becoming very concerned. All the upbeat feeling has gone, even the excitement of the Yanks is fading away.

The owners, manager and players really do need a long hard look at themselves and work out how they can turn this around.

Trying hard not to be an unhappy Clapper.

 

If you could sum it up in one tweet...
