    Just home now still buzzing as we defo didn't deserve to lose that.

    On the fans leaving early it is pretty annoying when come 85 86 minutes every week you can see thousands get up an leave. Fair enough if we are 3-0 down but my rule is I would never leave my seat till full time if the game is level or has 1 goal in it. Moments like tonight are why we go to football yet at least 10-15 thousand missed it to beat the traffic.

    The thing we know is this team is never dead and will try and try , they don’t like losing and you can see that .

    But the biggest thing is the togetherness of the team who know how they can play . Onien and rebris conversation looked interesting during extra time , would have loved to hear what was said but you could see the passion .

    Back in and just keep chuckling to myself. Thought we deserved a point. Did Leeds have two attacks the whole second half? They are a good side though, looked a bit of a step up from us first half but we dug in and made it a good game. First 15 minutes was electric. This teams got something about it. Long season ahead but we have chance

    It's not a criticism of Isidor, he looks good and will improve greatly when he settles in and stops snatching at chances in a bid to impress, but I would play Mayenda given the choice.

    If we can drill it into him to run to the near post when the wingers are about to cross it he'll be close to the complete striker, considering his age.

    No idea they can do what they want though they’ve bought a ticket like the rest of us how long they stay is up to them why are people bothered :emoticon-0102-bigsm Winning, losing or drawing it’s always like that? It has been for as long as I’ve going to the match. Bus to Chester leaves park lane at 22:05, one after that is 23:15 - what do you think people with kids are going to do hanging around the city centre if they miss the 22:05 one? In that case, leaving 10 minutes earlier gets them home hours earlier.

    Have a look on your map for Chester-le-Street.
    Give you a clue....it's quite near Sunderland.

    The thing I noticed wasnt people leaving early ( I dont care, its up to them) but people were going downstairs for pints/food after 35 minutes, just very strange

    I'm currently on a train to Edinburgh with around a dozen more Sunderland. We left after Meslier's hilarious failed juggling audition ...

    ... Leeds and their embarrassing time wasting drove quite a few out of the ground tbh.

    It was quite different on Tuesday against Derby.

    Just having a glance at the stats, Mundle on 95% pass accuracy and 10 crosses (next best was 2) suggests he had a good game.

    Among our best dribblers, one of only 4 players to have a shot on target and good defensive stats in general never mind for a winger. Roberts did well too but Mundle edged it for me.
