Don't know what to make of that, good point with 10 men, another poor Ref, hope Embo isn't too bad we move on.
Apart from the bit quality for the goal that’s a really poor afternoon dare I say again! Officiating in this league and within the country really is piss poor!
Feeling mixed. + We drew with 10 men + Rossco scored + Its a further point away from 22nd place - absolutely minging game - we were winning - they were there to be beat and we didn't have the quality - shot ourselves in the foot conceding a penna and then the later red card Oh well, its a point on the road.
Just had a peek over the road and reading some posts on here. I give Mowbray 2 home games till the atmosphere turns
Never a red card! Penna fair enough but red was a joke decision. Not sure Embo even knew he was there.
Take a point in those circumstances. Some very worrying signs in that team. Dan Neil, for the position he plays in, his footballing brain is seriously lacking. Don't think the lads got what it takes to make it to be honest. Lyndon Gooch, sorry but if we're all honest here, he's crap at RB and we need Huggins fully fit ASAP. Elliot Embleton, load of crap really and it looks as though he's just ruled himself out for the season there anyway. Sadly it's three local lads that are proving huge weak links and the lads over at RTG would be fuming saying I want the local lads to fail, when truth is, they're just not good enough. And the referee, that was just an awful performance from him and I'm convinced he didn't want Sunderland to win.
That'll do, away draw with a player sent off and a pen conceded has to be a good(ish) result. Not to mention having Stewart and Ballard back Hope Batth is ok.
Having Ballard and Stewart back are massive positives. we have a very good starting eleven and if TM picks it, we will be in for a good second half to the season refs and home form permitting,
Agree with all that especially the ref! I don't think the local lads are terrible but we should be looking to replace/improve all!
I think Gooch will never in any circumstance be what we need in any position on that pitch, same goes for Embleton. But Neil has so much potential but he just seems a bit thick!
Was a poor match from both sides really, even worse ref. We move on! Stewart back is a huge positive with any luck we can keep him!
Poor first 11 selection , especially after that second half WBA display. No changes apart from 1 that was forced. We were poor first half. No changes. Only changes were when it was forced and reactive. Zero proactive decisions made to win a game.
I don,t think we can carry all three, as they give the ball away too easily and dont make enough positive contributions, we can carry one but not all three, Simms fits into this category as well for me, but we are a team in transition and have done well so far, well enough to be confident imo.
He needs to start earning his crust to be fair. Too much reactive decisions getting made and not being proactive to take the game to the opposition.
