    Missed that game but remember it being a huge win at the time. Play-off belief was building

    Had a couple of beers in the Bridge Vaults last night before the match. It was a decent pint. We always drink in The Manor on a Saturday match and it’s not open midweek, so this will have to be our midweek boozer.

    Loads of development going on down there and hopefully Sunniside becomes busy. There’s a good few places down there that will take off with more footfall

    Vaguely football related, but has anyone noticed how the new cycle lane along from Roker to St Peters has completely f*cked up the traffic on a match day? Its ridiculous.

    They have created a funnel at the St Peters junction, cars not intending to go over the bridge are overtaking people on the wrong side of the road. Head on collision waiting to happen there.

    And here was me thinking it’s only Sunderland who don’t condition players properly, overplay them and buy sicknotes <whistle>

    “The Belgian becomes the third Hull player to suffer an ACL injury this season along with Liam Millar and Mohamed Belloumi, who are not expected to return until July at the earliest.

    It comes as another blow for head coach Ruben Selles after loanee Louie Barry returned to Aston Villa this week to undergo rehabilitation for a knee injury suffered in the 1-0 win at Sunderland last weekend.”

    New rule next season. 8 seconds a keeper has from getting hold of the ball….

    So, over the last 10-15 years…. It’s been 6 seconds, 10 seconds, as long as you want seemingly (now), and it will now be 8 seconds, with a corner as the punishment!

    I reckon they do it fir 3 rounds of games, then **** it off!!

    In the light of the incident involving the Milwall goalkeeper and the Bolton player yesterday I have been trying to recall the incident from a few seasons ago when a Millwall goalkeeper knocked out Denis Cirkin with a punch to the head but cannot recall the name of the goalkeeper involved. Can anyone remember?
