Every moment has a story attached, every story has a prelude, and before that prelude is another story with its own moments. The life of a Sunderland fan is filled with these stories and emotional moments, but for me the mantra toward the end of last season is the one which has stuck with me. TIL THE END Absolute genius and we played it too a T. I have been reading through comments on here today and to be honest trying to look at things with a new perspective. Taking the knee Don't really give a **** about it, not because I am racist or anything but because it has nothing to do with my support for my team. Skin colour religion etc mean nothing to me, the people I choose to be around do I.E I choose to be around people I like and don't hate anybody for totally ****tard reasons like there skin is a different colour. Where there is money involved politics is never far away, and where politics is involved controversy whether real or fabricated will be brought up to create opportunities for politicians to spout their shyte to the masses. **** that **** we have a game and the only important subject for this thread is are we gonna win. Good news on the injury front by the look of it and TBH I am happy this is Reinildos suspension finished as he has been a big miss. Not sure where Cirkin is with his fitness as Masauaku has not filled me with confidence defensively and you can bet that Wolves will have noted how Manure targeted him last time out. I am sure RLB knows this and he has been quite adept at changing things around when needed. Think we could do with a bit of a morale boost just to keep momentum going but in truth the last few games have seen Wolves just starting to show what they are about which makes me a little cautious. I am in that typical Sunderland place of caution and optimism but am learning to trust in RLB and his processes.
Thanks for posting that mate. RLB continues to be so impressive particularly in the way he understands the players.....his comments on Ballard,Luke,Diarra....all the time with their interests in mind.
I’m hoping to find a few for people … … it’s ironic that people who could walk to the ground are struggling to get in.
In L1 and Championship people didn’t need to worry too much about having an SC as they could get into most games … … now there's a scramble even for matches against teams like Wolves.
I don't believe that for a minute.....you're a conduit for people to be able to get to matches....and I'm sure you get loads of satisfaction from arranging things ......long may it continue!
Only by helping friends and family usually mate. I'd quite like it if everyone always had what tickets they need and the ground was full. I don't do it for my own satisfaction tbh, I've just had lots of help over the decades so like to reciprocate.
Great thread as always RTB. Buzzing for this one feels like it's been a close season since the last home game. Bloody internationals. I reckon it's gonna be close going for a 2-1 or a 1-1 hoping for the former obviously. It still seems mad to me to be going into a premiership game expecting to win as opposed to hoping to win.
Even last few seasons in the prem there was regularly thousands of empty seats. It's nice that there's a good demand for tickets but also naff that there's folk who want to go that can't.
