Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Sheffield United – Championship Play-off Final - Saturday 24th May 2025 - KO 15:00

Incredibly excited to see what this recruitment team does with any sort of premier league budget.

Really hope they stick to their guns because watching the likes of Mayenda, Jobe and Hume flourish is far more exciting than signing a someone everyone knows about for an inflated fee.

 

What do you think Watson’s thinking now? A bit of regret ?

 

Biggest football news on BBC is the Women’s Champions League not the world’s most expensive prized game!

 

Relief tbh, his move to Brighton has been on the cards for ages so I think he's made it believing it's the best for his career so I don't think there will be any regret

He must be buzzing that his last moment with us was scoring a 95th winner in the playoff final to get us back to the PL. The abuse he got was uncalled for imo, so to sign off with that goal I think he can walk away with his head held high

 

He can definitely walk away with his head held high after that, I’m not sure if his celebrations will have been bitter sweet. Ultimately he wants to develop in the premier league and he’ll be leaving his boyhood club who have a load of young players who are doing the same. Do you think Jobe will leave now ? And what are the chances of Amad do you think ?

 

Aye if anything it's probably made the move to Brighton easier, no unfinished business here and he hasn't left his boyhood club on a sour note. Couldn't have gone much better for the kid.

 

No chance of Amad and I think Jobe will stay - i think a season with us in the PL will do his development the world of good

 

A little. You could see it on his face yesterday. He needs to let it go, he’s got a big future ahead of him.

 

That save in the first minute. Absolutely incredible.

 

RLB handled his poor form a couple of months ago so we’ll. didn’t drop him, looks like he dropped a few lbs. Been solid as a rock for weeks now and finished with a motm performance with two just simply incredible saves.

 

Asked the same question Amad of a few It’d season ticket holders. They think there’s a chance a good few leave as they bring in Amorim players and they reckon a few surprises as they get cas where they can. Clearly it depends on what we’ll pay.

 

If Amad is available he will have a lot of top teams after him, of course he loves us but I can't see it at all

 

Just checking to see if it was dream

nope, not a dream

 

Well the journey home has begun, sat at King’s Cross waiting for the train and the place is full of
Mackems

 

Just fill this thread now with pictures

 

Absolutely rammed inside and out all night

 

Was great. Spoke to loads after the game.

Sore head here

 

Glad to have you back mate, it’s sickening reading what these arseholes write week in week out but they are to dumb to see it.
