Players like Fletcher, Rodwell, Larsson, Graham are all safe bets to our managers and none have had the balls to give our youth a chance. So in a way, I do blame Dick for that. It's up to him to be the one who has the balls to come in and change it about, if they are good enough then they are old enough. I have always firmly believed that. Apparently that 16 year old at West Ham had another very good game today.
I was there today and stupid enough to do a sleep over. What I saw today was eleven men in Sunderland shirts completely alien to each other, they may as well been in the north stand. What I saw afterwards were a lot of fans wearing the same shirts, wishing they had brought a t-shirt so they could take the ****er off. We are a shambles of the highest order and while Ellis balances the books to make the club sellable, the fans again take the ****..**** off Mr Short and take your 10 gallon stetson with you, you 2 pint ****..
I'll never set foot in that ground again while Texas Tom is in charge. ****ing shambolic is what we are. I'm sorry but I'm sick of seeing ****e year after year.
I think, after the performance and the crowd reaction, the message may have finally sunk in about Watmore. Maybe, Dick will think about other younger players as well. watmore stood head an shoulders above evryone else - he went on the attack, showed some skill and covered for those who couldn't be bothered to run.
