I can't help it mate, honestly I've tried not giving a **** about Sunderland. I wish I didn't, my life would be much better. Hate was probably a strong word, but I've never seen a more negative lineup that what he put out against Burton. He had one chance (seeminly now two) to put down a marker, change things up, and really give it a go, and he played for a draw at home to Burton. It's inexcusable.
If you had said Moyes I would of agreed with you<laugh>
 
My old man told me the same as well. Another one was where he would dribble for a bit, stop, hitch his shorts up, slick his hair back with both hands, pretend to look at his watch and set off again. The opposition wouldn’t go near him in case he made a fool of them!
True, he loved to do it against Arsenal who rejected him as a kid. Saw him beat a defender by bouncing the ball off the corner flag!

People can say what they want. That's up to them. It's fine. No dramas here. I understand why some make be very against that type of post. I get it.

To be honest , throughout this, I have found that others do get info too. There is someone who doesn't like the limelight who is incredibly ITK. I am going some of my posting specifically to here too and not on socials and it's rubbing a few people up the wrong way and I sort of understand why.
ITKs seem to like ambiguity as an MO - it's that what frustrates.
 
Think his remit here will be a lot different. Got to trust that the new guys have identified him for a reason and to Dona certain job he will be good at.

Yes mate, he sounds just what we need to run the academy, and the development of the club, but I hope there will be someone else in a Sporting Director/Director of Football role, to liaise with the manager and deal with what happens with the First Team Squad.

I’ll give you all of that. In his defence he’s probably sticking with what he knows as he’ll be very aware that he’s not getting the gig full time. Add to that he didn’t have much time to do anything different with the players at his disposal. I can’t remember who said it and I’m paraphrasing as well, but football players are generally pretty dim and asking them to do or try something different 48 hours before a game will only confuse the ****e out of them.
 
Absolutely however, just to be clear. It doesn't mean I expect imminent announcement through socials. It's because I have to wind of something being sorted and I am happy about it. I won't go into detail as I have far too much respect for the information being passed to me.

Obviously anyone can say that and will probably be pulled up on it but guess it's up to people to trust or not. That's their decision and they can make their own minds up.
Just keep the information coming mate its appreciated I think I am the same as most lads, frustrated just want it done, but realise its happening
 
Yeah I can see that. TBF I may tone it down. Been to active of late and can see it from the otherside
No need to tone it down , this is a forum people on here are in the main interested in SAFC some regrettably like to come on and snipe . I respect what you and others post on here and you appear sincere in what you post , you will always get divisions but other people have the choice of reading your posts or not . Most supporters have enjoyed what you have shared .
