I echo that, no excuses you were the better team and deserved everything you got !!! QUOTE=Albert's Chip Shop;4576606]Gutted to **** but fair play to you boys. Enjoy today.[/QUOTE]
Today the better team won, I expected us to come at you more in the second half but once we didn't get that onside goal (and don't get me wrong there was a littany of officiating errors that stung both teams so its not an excuse) we simply didn't do enough to get back into it. Oddly I think the single biggest difference between the teams today was finishing, some absolute corkers from your boys. Well done, its been a tough season but hopefully in a month or so we can all look back on a season to forget and just move on next year to more premiership derbies. You needed this more than us and deserved the result entirely.
Cheers lads, we will enjoy our day and savour the result until the next game. PS, How the hell will Look North and ITV news get around this?
First post here since Feb 2012. ****ing well done to you lot. Wanted it more, played out their skin and three cracking goals to be fair. Enjoy this. God knows you lot have felt like me and I've felt like you too. No excuses. Forget offsides and whatever, that was a top performance. Enjoy your nights lads.
We needed the result, what a performance. Even Jamie Redknapp who had written us off before the game said you will not see three better goals in the Prem this season. We are in heaven. We have seen the light.
Nah, screw all this love in between us and them. You boys took one helluva stuffing today. Get iiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnn. **** the mags. Follow the Mackems........
1 - 1 its a different game, but thats no excuse for the implosion that followed. We've rode out luck at times this year and so cant complain when it starts going against. Definitely spells trouble for Wigan however
Superb Performance Sunderland .. Really pleased you have done it and escaped. That was a derby performance and our players should hold their heads very low for our performance against Fulham We should be back much stronger in a season's time
Enjoy today....................no, I will be enjoying this one right up until the next derby game(hopefully both safe). Thanks for the 4 points............
Id wait a bit longer before proclaiming such things, you lot were untouchable for a while at the beginning of MoN's tenure. Dont underestimate the power of the honeymoon effect, it wears off however
You totally did us, I honestly think the team talks sealed today. It was Asif di Canio told his players to relax and take an extra touch, whilst our players were riled by pardew hence us constantly running straight into the tackle and either getting skinned or drawing a foul. You deserve the win though, if you ply like that for the rest of the season your fine
