This is becoming like the Cup we won at Wembley against Tranmere ... ... none of us were that bothered about the competition but we all leapt up when Gooch cracked in the winner! I think reality will soon set in and we'll be desperate to win all the games and go up.
Never in a million years did I think we would be in this position would of been more than happy to stay in the league never mind in with a chance of the playoffs,massive well done to the young team staff and uncle Tony. Make us proud tomorrow lads big crowd and they all love ya’s COME ON
Last minute change of work plans late yesterday means I can now make this so will head up tomorrow morning with my youngest lad to be there. Should just about make KO. Can’t wait. HTL.
Which manager left us and said his new team were relaxed and it was end of season and his team would play their hearts out at Man unt to help keep us up, got beat 4-1 and we were relegated
I can’t wait for tomorrow, a full house and the charged atmosphere that goes with it, I'm like a kid in a sweetie shop. In my opinion, this season has been the most enjoyable I can remember in my 60 years of supporting Sunderland, probably because the previous five seasons have been my least enjoyable. The drop through the Championship and the four seasons in league 1 were a nightmare for me because I expected to win every game and when we didn’t, I came away from the ground in a hell of a fettle and it buggered my week. This season my expectations were sighted lower, hoping for mid table but what this young team and manager have achieved is nothing short of incredible and irrespective of where we finish up I look forward to next season with anticipation. I reckon the ride will shred my nerves to bits but I am better prepared for it after this brilliant season.
Tickets, travel, accommodation all sorted just about got my voice back after last week at West Brom, can’t wait, the anticipation is killing me, in a good way. Hope the atmosphere is as electric as it was last week, the lads will ride on the wave of our support!
Another great thread RTB, and I hope Tony will give some thought to this line up posted earlier by TopCat , I am looking forward to another good show by "The Lads" whoever he picks tbh , it wont be easy, but we do have a forum, team and manager to be proud of, what more can we ask? 3 points please. OaU
Joao Pedro signing for Brighton. Wonder if he'll be "rested" for the last 2 games of the season to protect his move
Another brilliant thread RTB. Only another 4 to go! Watford have nowt to lose, so I doubt they'll revert to ****housery and it will be an open game, which will play right into our hands. I hope the crowd doesn't get anxious and continues to sing their hearts out, like our away support does. I wasn't confident about this game a few weeks ago, but I am now. Their season is effectively over, ours is reaching boiling point and I expect us to come out on top. Win this and then see what we need at Preston. Millwall losing tonight would be a great start to the weekend, but our future is in our hands now. Let's do the business! 3-1 to the Lads and a step closer to Wembley.
Tickets are either sold out or they've been taken off the e ticketing site. Everything is grey on the plan.
