    You said the team selection for the Norwich game was minging. Why don't you just give the lads a chance whoever makes the team?

    Amad likely on the bench then.

    I have my opinions and I'm entitled to them. I'm also delighted when I'm wrong

    Great thread RTB thanks for your efforts. Yet another difficult game aren’t they all at the minute. Sounds like Amad could well be back . No idea what team he will put out but whoever it is I’m sure they will give their all. Luton best away record in the league. Just the motivation we need to beat them. Whatever the result all I ask is 100% from them and a little bit of luck that seems to be avoiding us at the minute. Keep the faith lads and lasses.

    Any news on Cirkin? He was meant to be seeing a specialist this week to see if he could resume training?

    Been a long time for concussion that like. Never heard of it being such a long time, it's a bit worrying.

    Of course he is how foolish of me to ask.
    Only Sunderland can get a player concussed and then not have him play again for 2 months. I should have known.

    Not a clue where Huggins is either, I've just about given up on him this season.

    The last i read is hes training with the U23s and its more of a mental issue for him now to be able to get over his injury problems

    Think it might be the same for Cirkin mate , only guessing but that was an horrendous punch in the face, did not look accidental either.

    Fair enough. Not sure if you were serious about not going on the basis of team selection. Seems bizarre to me. Hey ho. What team would still get you there?

    I know we have injuries and we are down to the bare bones but is it not time to play some of the lads who will probably be here next season.
    Get Lisjahdi, Ekwah, Bennette and a few more in. Lets give them a run of games in prep for next season.
    Put 2-2 in my predictor but couldnt help but vote home win on here.
    Will be a tough game but hoping referees decisions are levelled up here and a championship virgin ref gives us a few favourable decisions to help us get a morale boosting win. Would prefer to do it without help but just want the win.

    Cheers RTB my fine fellow. Once again another fab write up.

    Looking forward to the game tomorrow. It’s raining in Cornwall and somebody mentioned it will be sunny in Sunderland so I’m on my way.
    Great lot on here, always coming up with help and advice if needed, where to go for a drink with like minded supporters, home and away, and with tickets for away games.
    Thanks to Gordon Armstrong for the offer of a free ticket that couldn’t otherwise be used for this game

    Another mystery, and another shame, as the only time I have seen him he looked absolute class , so lets hope like Cirkin he can put his worries behind him and end the season on a high. These are really important players for us long and short term imo.

    Mowbray wanted to sign him at Blackburn as well so he obviously rates him and would have got a fair bit of gametime of fit I reckon.
