    It was paused because of that and people moaning that the game was stopped just because someone had a heart attack.

    ****e, we are crap and that result isn’t good enough.

    Clarke should start.

    Aye mate, since the Portsmouth defeat. Trouble is we now look like the odd decent win is no where near as we are ****ing hopeless even when teams come out and do **** all to us for half hour they soon realise we are there for the taken and carry very little threat.

    I was telling myself we still had a chance of automatic when Johnson got the boot as it mathematically possible so why can't we do it.

    I'd be shocked if they got it together enough to make the playoffs, relegation form right now. Don't think it's possible due to what we did early season but my god its shocking out there.

    Not sure we can change it in the areas that matter either!

    So we have 14 wingers and **** all centre half's and can't play 2 wingers in the same game because we can't play 2 Centre half's alone as they are weak as piss?

    **** knows what that formation was meant to be second half

    What a ****ing surprise, Jack Clarke comes on and is instantly our most threatening player. What the **** does he need to do to get a start?

    Roberts might as well stay at home in future as well.

    Need to show it's not good enough for this club to be struggling in this league!

    Big things need to change in the summer never mind what league we are in. Need a leader in defence and midfield, someone who won't let heads drop. A keeper and a backup striker. Just to get us in a position to start building!

    Maybe a winger or two to add to the 50 we bought this season!

    Clarke looks too much like a footballer to get a start.

    At the players maybe, not the gaffer, the team is a mess which is not his fault

    'It's a good point against Burton, which we shouldn't be saying, but it's a good point'

    FFS that's how low we've fallen. I couldn't raise so much as a cheer at the equaliser - I've never seen such a low standard of play from Sunderland.

    Horrible performance that. Honestly dont knoe what the tactics or intent was, apart from hoofball. We arent a squad that can play percentage stuff. I honestly dont know what we take from it other than a point, which is hardly what is needed. It was probably the worst I have seen this season.

    We now know what we thought about Defoe was correct. Love the lad but he is 39 and looks easy to defend against now. Cirkin and Doyle still look absolutely terrified defensively. Evans gets bypassed. We are very easy to play against.

    Alex, you have been dealt a rough hand with this squad and players. You are going to need to do better with tactics and selection though than tonight. You have my support but please dont serve up percentage football.

    Please let's have a team with no players out of position, two actual wingers and Pritchard in the middle for the next game. It's not rocket science.
