Most people think we're ****ed, it's obviously got absolutely nothing to do with being Scottish. Your optimism is admirable, but you don't need to tell us quite so ****ing often.
That's not right, almost every Sunderland corner was won at the near post by John O'Shea - their first goal came via the same route, i.e. flick at near post headed home by Jones; we've become truly **** at defending set pieces since we went to zonal marking, Allardyce is coaching his blockers and runners as we speak.
