Match Day Thread Sunderland AFC v Arsenal FC - Saturday 8th November 2025 - KO 17:30

I think you must. It’s well deserved

 

I am so proud of our club. Can't put into words what tonight meant to me, from the lads walking on the pitch up until the final whistle.

 

We havnt won since Chelsea. Useless twats!

 

a Brobbey appreciation post

 

i wasn’t that brave , but got top half at 33s and top newcomer at 10s.
Will pay for a season ticket

 

All of a sudden I'm absolutely fiiking desperate for Wolves to beat Chelsea

 

Are we part of the CARTEL now

 

Fantastic!

 

ELF was looking for a pass, no one made themselves available.
That said, fek it, what a team

 

Pop Corn, Shearer and Match of the Day is becoming a Saturday routine

 

cheers again RTB....

once again this squad delivers, i have watched arsenal a few times and waited for a full game onslaught yet we took the lead and handled most of what they tried to throw at us, there again they are top for a reason, they are a very good squad and play the ball around well and i was just thinking that trossard had not had his regular shot yet (the bassa).

pretty sure the commentators said this was the hardest game of the season for arsenal once or twice and i have to agree with them, only conceded three goals all season, 812 minutes without a goal against them...then they come to sunderland and concede two.

not going through the team but couple of points, ballard's goal was scored with the confidence of a 20 goal a season battle hardened number 9 yet the lad is a defender, le fee was having an excellent game until his mistake and then he seemed to just fall away, pleased as feck for brian brobbey as he threw himself towards every chance he could plus at the time of the goal he was being held, pulled back and shoved but his eyes were stuck on the ball.

ref watch, happy enough with him, did a lot of talking and calming down rather than being 'the main man' and throwing cards out and i think he got most right.

my MotM obviously to big dan again with a strong second place to brobbey for his late but essential part in the game.

 

I'm not sure these Lions realise what they are doing for us all. Honestly, we're the real deal like.

 

The goalie was

Bart

 

if they chalked it off they would have to have given us a penalty for the foul(s) on brobbey as he went for it.

 

The club continue to astound me in ways I didn’t think possible this season. Long may this rich vein of form continue, such a breath of fresh air for the league, it has needed a good shake up for some time and I am glad we are the ones providing it right now.

 

I take your point but it would have to be accurate.
Hello bells man I'm 3 sheets to the wind here

 

What an absolute arsehole Keith Downie is, this is his comment on that game ....

"Streetwise, physical, disciplined…never say die. Just a few of the words to describe new-look Sunderland. They are absolutely horrible to play against and have mastered the ugly side of the game perfectly. I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again — not many teams will come to The Stadium of Light this season and win. And nobody has yet… Dan Ballard a colossus tonight."

 

Looks like the ****ing hulk there, Brobbey. No need for an AI edited picture! Guts, togetherness and some excellent performances. Every week we keep making a mark this season. Class
