Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Huddersfield Town FC - Tuesday 26th August 2025 - KO 19:45

Is there a press conference today for this game?

 

14:00 today on Youtube

 

Sunderland AFC Assistant Head Coach Luciano Vulcano will address the media this afternoon ahead of our Carabao Cup round two clash with Huddersfield Town on Tuesday, 7.45pm BST.

?

 

Probably from a development point of view, giving him exposure to stuff a manager would

 

Hmmm. I wonder where Regis is?

 

House hunting with Amad

 

Vulcano comes across very well really impressed with the new coaching set up it may take time and there will be bumps along the road like Saturday but I can’t help but be so
Optimistic about this club, we’ll get the business we need done, We haven’t spend this much to leave us short, huge week ahead, Itching for that first pint in the museum Saturday

 

Not very informative but he spoke very well

 

TBH there's very little ever really learned from these things ...

... it just gives an idea of the atmosphere around the place in my opinion.

The journo asking 'What kind of coach are you?', what a ridiculous question.

If he describes, in detail, what kind of coach he is the journo wouldn't be able to keep up.

It's like when people describe RLB as 'tactically naïve', or whatever, as if they know better ... perhaps they do but I seriously doubt it.

 

Must admit I am tempted to hoy £10 on us for the FA Cup. Probably lose but adds a little bit of spice and yes I think we do have the squad/players to go on a decent run.

 

It's always worth having a tenner on the FA Cup imo ...

... a mate had money on Chesterfield and he still hates Boro to this day

 

Tin hat on I know cos we’re in the prem we should be targeting a cup run but I can’t help but look at this as a good chance for minutes and experimenting, an extension of pre season, I had the same attitude towards it last year

It’s just a way of giving him some time to do other stuff when there aren’t the contractual obligations around press conferences as there are with the PL. Essentially the same as squad rotation.

 

A good chance for some of the fringe players to stake a claim for a start in the first 11.

3-0 to the lads

 

Is that a dig at Riggs new hairstyle

 

I wonder how important this game is to Hudderafield? They must be all in on the league surely? Off to a flyer as well.

Might well be two so called second strings on show, although I am sure Goochy will want a start.

 

Might have a spare one on my phone,should know definitely tomorrow,could meet at the stokoe statue and get you in, sorry but I don’t know how to send personal messages

 

I wonder if fans will continue to stay off their phones this season if the game doesn't go the way we think it should.

Surely when you go to a game you support the lads no matter what. Here's hoping that they get that support

 

So in essence you want fans to give up time and money to watch the reserve team.
