Match Day Thread Sunderland v Cheltenham Town – Tuesday 28th September 2021 - KO 19:45

When we’re doing the business in the PL in a few years time the question will be - aye but were you there against Cheltenham on the Tuesday night in the pissing down rain?

 

When we boarded the coach, at Cheltenham, there were lads in T-shirts looking at me like I was an Eskimo ....

... can't wait to see them get back on the coach after 3 hours in Sunderland

 

Good luck to them and absolutely no offence they seem like a well run club
But never in a million years did I ever expect to be playing Cheltenham in a league match.

 

It's absolutely pissing it down

 

Got a feeling Flanagan will score tonight

 

Nerves are kicking I n. Currently wandering around the metro centre!! (Wearing a mask obviously) wife needs interview clothes!!

 

Looks like there’s been an accident on the A19 northbound just before the 690. That may cause delays

 

A bit before according to Google. Hopefully people get through in time.

 

Haway Haway Haway

 

Hopefully the weather doesn’t spoil the game too much. Got to be honest there’s something quite magical about a night game in the pouring rain.

I hark back to Manchester City at home in 2010, a 1-1 draw in driving rain under the floodlights. Cracking game and atmosphere.

 

we fought the mags alongside the Scots way back in the civil war…. the river runs deep

 

Haaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaaay!

 

fancy Broadhead to score tonight. Pleased for O’Brien being back in the squad

 

I like it. We've got a bloody big squad now with quality all over for this division.

 

Wright and AoB starting three strikers up front , and just look at that bench.
