    So an away winner from the second legs is long overdue. I'd be amazed if it is Doncaster.

    Not surprised it's 0-0.
    Two teams currently in poor form.
    Worry whose going to score for us as we've no one in prolific form, but anybody would do. Need a big second half.

    Sadly it's more likely to be Ozturk and to be in the wrong net.

    Why are so many people now wearing 1970's USA, sports anchorman, jackets?

    Darren Bent what do you look like?!

    I predict we will be playing this lot next season, and we will be the better prepared. OaU.

    Poor game so far. Pompy all over us first 20 mins, but we grew into the match. Our wide players have been poor and Flannigan's passing has been poor too. We need to cut out hoofing the ball up field because Pompy are much taller than our players.

    An early goal second half would be very welcome!

    Been enjoying this so far slightly less than a trip to the dentists, nerves getting to me.

    Flanagan really needs to bulk up he looks malnourished.

    If this was 10 years ago I'd feel the same. Nowadays, when we lose this, I'll be disappointed rather than devastated.

    Another year in league one would be ok I reckon as we're still rebuilding so I'd be alright too if we don't go up.

    On the whole I'm enjoying Sunderland a lot more now under the new owners and a lot of the cobwebs have been swept away.

    Genuine question lads, how come your attendance is down for this game, 26k. Is it the kick-off time on a Saturday along with being on TV or/plus the cost of too many games?

    A few comments about Flanaghan here, I honestly think he's having a good game defensively. Covering well and mopped up one or two situations which could have developed into something bad!

    That's why we play Maguire.

    I saw your post and it was still 0-0 on my radio link for a good 30 seconds afterwards.

    Got it chrome cast to my tv....thought there was normally a few seconds delay in that, so thought i'd have seen it on here first.
