Non-Saints Games - 24/25

[Willo of Whiteley]

Mayenda Neil of Sunderland look decent. Sunderland have turned up more today than they did last week. Their players have apent a lot of time on the floor and in the officials faces. They’ve run out of players to be booked now so it’s eased up. 😂

And it had to be ex Saint Dan Ballard who pops up with the winner in the 123rd minute for Sunderland.

Was he at saints before arsenal?

And if Sheffield United win then another team with parachute payments.

Nice to see Sunderland celebrate with their fans after the game ... unlike last year when we had to watch our bellend fans do knee slides across the pitch!

He actually was.... albeit very briefly. He broke his ankle while playing as a trialist for our academy years ago. He got turned down by us, Norwich and Reading, if I remember rightly (I might have the other two teams wrong) and then ended up rehabbing and fighting his way back in at Arsenal and getting a pro deal

I know some people don’t like the playoff games but they just serve up absolutely fantastic matches so often, as well as keeping far more teams in a fight for something to play for far further into the season.

I do think they could make it fairer on the teams finishing higher by making it 5th vs 6th, followed by the winner of that playing 4th, followed by the winner of that playing 3rd.

It’s the same number of fixtures, albeit with trickier scheduling.
