Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Plymouth Argyle FC – Saturday 25th January 2025 - KO 15:00

Will see if I can get there before the match then, that's if I even get home tbh this weather may **** my flight from Amsterdam tomorrow.

 

I would love it if we batter them, but after their last game, I can see them parking the bus and we struggle to break them down. Some think it will be a cricket score, but I don't. They are coming for a point.

 

I think you're dead right, they'll come for a point ...

... I just hope we score early and they can only come out and attack.

If they're content to simply keep the score down you may be right although I'd be gutted if I was coming here from Plymouth.

Personally I'll be quite disappointed if we don't score three or more.

 

If we can score early, you are right, they will have to come at us, which will play right into our hands.

I hope it's a good game and a few goals to keep the feel good factor going.

Enjoy the match Smug

 

Cheers mate, although I may have to change where I sit.

I'd found a great empty 'carers' seat, in the disabled section where I've been very happy.

I've made friends with the little autistic lad, in the next seat, who sings all the game, is funny and quite knowledgeable.

Unfortunately he's started firing endless questions at me, about my personal circumstances, why I sit in a seat for a carer and to explain what some of the words mean in the songs supporters are singing ...

... I've tried bluffing him but he's outsmarting me and won't let it drop even when we're attacking at 0-0.

I think it's time to move before I lose it and cop a stadium ban

 

Have you bought a ticket yet ?
If not I've almost certainly got a spare that you can have (you don't even have to sit next to me )

 

An early goal would be nice just like the Pompey game

 

Pompey were still wasting time when we were winning

 

I’m expecting some horrible antics from Plymouth whilst it’s still 0-0. Like going back to League One, most goalkeepers took the piss out of the referee

 

I was thrilled when we beat Wycombe and left L1 behind us ...

... but it's like Frankenstein's monster, we just can't shake it off.

 

Haha thanks very much mate but yeah sorted one the other day.

 

Any win will do.....points make prizes as Brucey would say.
Haway Haway Haway

 

Aye, can hang about for one and let the traffic die down nee bother. Really looking forward to this game for some reason, think it'll be a great atmosphere

 

See you there Smithy

 

Safe journey mate. Hope the game makes the trip worthwhile.

 

Hope the wind doesn’t mess up things for the weekend. Sounds like a rough day tomorrow.

 

Why did I read that in a Kevin Keegoon voice?

 

Champion see ya there chaps ill get the beers in.

 

Shift Le Fee into the middle from now on, don't see any reason not to and if anyone can unlock a tight defence it's him.

 

Who do you drop though, that's the question.
