I’m irrationally delighted that we have pissed all over his chips again this season.

I’m never going to forgive or forget the disgraceful way he conducted himself after getting the job here.

He’s a twat and I detest him.
So do I, he can be happy with his grey hair, but he will always be a ginger, cheesed teeth surrender monkey to me
 
I’ve always thought Tarkowski was a solid and tough defender to play against but f***ing hell Brobbey shrugged him off like a rag doll

I think Tarkowski made the mistake of trying to knock Brobbey off the ball. That simply angered the Hulk and there was only one place Tarkowski was ending up and that was on his arse.
 
God that brings back some awful memories, built like a tank but couldnt finish his dinner.

I remember when Jozy scored against Arsenal when he had Sagna literally hanging off his neck. The ref blew the whistle early though and gave Sagna a yellow as obviously it wasn't a goal scoring opportunity as Altidore actually went on and scored. Probably the most bizarre decision ive ever seen live. Still think if that had been allowed to stand and the confidence it would have given him Jozy's time here may have gone differently but we will never know.

Literally just sent shivers down my spine reading the word Jozy... FML what an absolute disaster he was

Half expected var to step in and take 6 minutes to invent a reason to disallow it. If it had been at Old Trafford or Anfield they probably would have
 
My take on the game was obviously we were very impressive. Unlucky to be behind at half time.
The final score reflected our overall performance.
Pleased for Diarra and his cameo....two crosses into the box and right on the money....wish people would get off the young lads back.
Hope we keep Gerty and Wilson. It's a squad game...especially if we get into Europe and will need a big squad.
RLB again another masterclass from the sidelines. With Trai in midfield at the moment it just makes us harder to breakdown.
Attitude of all superb....led by a fantastic leader.
Bring on Chelsea....going to be a very interesting 90 mins....HTL!!!
 
Great day out with the family at Everton. Really enjoyed an accomplished performance from the lads. Thought we controlled the first half without threatening them to much. 2nd half absolutely dominated them. Some terrific performances LON excellent sadiki le fee could go on and on but xhaka is just the real deal. Absolutely dominant in midfield.
Met the future in laws Everton fans and let them know we were much better than them. Look forward to seeing them again at the wedding in August. Cant wait now for next Sunday. What a way to potentially end the season. Haway the lads. Oh and I think we should definitely sign gerty on a longer deal. Quality player.

Former Premier League midfielder Nigel Reo-Coker says Sunderland "staying true to their principles" has been key to a fine season that has taken them to the verge of European football.

In their return to the top flight for the first time since 2016-17, the Black Cats go into the final day with a chance of playing in Europe for the first time since 1973.

"Fantastic, a really great story," Reo-Coker told BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast.

"I've had to deal with so many conversations about how the Premier League is too strong now for teams coming up from the Championship - the three that come up go down, and I've always been against that.

"I've always felt that it's the identity that the teams that come up have. Some of these teams when they get into the Premier League change and suddenly try and act all Hollywood instead of sticking with what got them there and trying to evolve from there.

"That is what Sunderland did. They recruited lots of players with experience, they went in there with no fear, stayed true to their principles, and didn't try and play total football and act like they've been in the Premier league forever.

"You have to earn the right and they have earned the right and the season they have had has been absolutely amazing. That should give hope to other teams who come up to say, 'you can achieve that if you do the right footballing things with the right footballing principles'."

Just watching the highlights again and the way Geertruida embraced Isidor and hugged all the other players it would be really sad seeing him leave in the summer.
Ive also noticed in the behind the scenes youtube videos leading up to a game how much of a big and popular personality he is around the place.

Well said Nigel Reo coker. Wow thats a blast from the past seeing his name again.

Whether Geertruida stays or moves on, he has more than done his bit for us this season. The lad can play and is another big character in the team.

Mate, that lad was awful, how we got Defoe for him was daylight robbery
