Nor am I, but let's be honest, his notoriety comes largely because of the British authoities failure to apprehend and detain him. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

Sunderland could well do a Birmingham, look more likely than Chelsea Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

Showing it and doing it are two completely different things, we do very little of the latter. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

The Saints way would be to go any win this one, unfortunately though, we won't. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

What most people seem to forget is that our early form was built on our excellent defensive record, not our attacking. Now that has gone to rat sh it as well, we are pretty ineffective at both ends of the pitch. Only going one way from here on in as far as I can see. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

Pretty pants really, they gifted us a goal, we worked them hard in the first half. We were totally toothless up front all game, they totally owned us second half. We ain't that great, mid to lower half, but we'll be in this league next year. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

Totally agree, think of the points that we could of had now with a little more care and better preparation in some of those situations. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

Quite glad really, didn't want to lose to a Boruk cock up. Early night too, won't be staying up to watch MOTD. Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk

Yep - first tried it whilst having a meze in Dhekelia early 80's. Loved it then and very glad it has made itself widely available over here now.

I think those are the main issues - how long are we going to persevere, he's not delivering so could well be that we look to offload. Problem 1 - whose likely to want to pay anywhere near what we did? Doing great in the league at the moment - but depth of squad looks thin. Problem 2 - a couple of injuries and we start to slide.

Would have taken a point before the game - shame about the freak goal but hey ho - ever nearer 38 points and safety.

They are thieving gits, who are in bed with the Government. Once again joe public is the loser.

Quite simply, starts mean absolutely nothing, finishes do.

Yeah, we played ok today... Sent from my HTC One S using Tapatalk 2

Don't really understand why this man gets all the childish 'name calling' attached to comments. If you saw him play then you will know that he was a very decent player in his day and he has taken that into management. Did a great job at Leeds and has carried that through with Brighton - I believe he got them promoted and then to the play offs as well - so almost did a Nigel. OK so he doesn't have Premiership experience, but neither did MP, everybody has to start somewhere, and let's face it Sunderland are probably currently on par with top to middling Championship sides. No doubt he will take a much different approach to PDC - while I feel a little sorry for Kevin Ball, I hope Poyet does well.

Being greedy would've liked a couple more goals - but we are in the Champions League places and another clean sheet - life is good. Well done boys...

Old news.......

Anything less than 3 points will take some of the gloss off of last weeks performance for me. Yes I know that football logic rarely works, but if we can do Liverpool at Anfield then Palace at home is a routine win - surely. Would love to see 3 or 4 home goals with both SRL and Osvaldo both scoring from open play. A good rout and clean sheet please.

Clean sheet and a point from Anfield - hell yeah, I'd take it.

Tri-service operations have nothing to do with who is 'Top Dog' with soldiers on the ground (although I am aware that such snobbery exist at certain Command levels). NI was seen by some as a 'training arena' for the Army to hone it's operational tactics. I believe the RAF look similarly at the garrison on Mount Pleasant - they all want their slice of the pie - but it actually means very little to the guy on the front line. In recent operations (last 30 years) the Army has provided the majority of front line personnel - and ground warfare has been totally unavoidable. I have done NI, the FI, the Gulf and Bosnia - as was the politicians bidding. If we are now saying we can conduct the same such operations without the need for ground forces then I would be sceptical at best but bloody happy. If we are saying that we are never ever going to enter into such operational situations in the future - again I would be very sceptical. As I say - the Navy can be the Top Dog - but to the soldier on the ground he really doesn't give a flying fuk, personally now I would much rather they stay at home. (Unfortunately though, I don't think it's going to work out like that for very long).
