Match Day Thread Sunderland v Wycombe Wanderers - Saturday 17th November - KO 15:00

I have the rule of never backing Sunderland.

I’ve backed ya last 6 games and will continue to do so while the odds are worth it.

It’s not that we are great, it’s that we are far, far better than what’s in front of us and we still get results playing average.

We are free money at the minute.

 

I was convinced Ross had brought him here to become captain at some point and perhaps that's what's spurred Honeyman on in the role.

He's won things, albeit in Scotland, and that's invaluable in a promotion chasing season.

 

sinclair up front! Maja on the bench ffs!!!!

 

Maja on the bench, Sinclair up front, five in midfield,, Power also on bench.

Live commentary on Talksport2

 

Ian Bowyer saying Wycombe are the better side at the half hour mark.

P'borough losing at home.

 

Looks like we are overcookinh it as we nesr their box. Attitude ?

 

End to end stuff - Wycombe just missed a sitter.

 

Wycombe giving it all they've got.

 

We can’t get Gooch into the game - nothing on the right.

 

McGeady put it wide again - Ha'way

 

Getting better - come on a goal just before half-time

 

HT 0-0

 

Not surprised Wycombe are making a good fist of this.
Some inspiration from Jack at half time to get us going.Come on lads.

 

Power,Oviedo,maja. ktf

 

Sinclair need to play within the width of the posts. Keeps drifting out wide and leaving **** all up top. Very easy to defend.

 

Poor imo. Not sure if call the Wycombe chance a “sitter” ball through a crowd of players at pace and he never looked comfortable going for the header. It’s one you should get on target but not what I’d call an easy chance. McGeady missed the target. Think there’s been a lot of players who don’t look at the races. Mcageouch, Sinclair, McGeady. Midfield needs a power or o’nien In there imo

 

Hopefully Wycombe will tire later on and we can pick them off. We've got the bench for it with the likes of Power and Maja.
