Have you ever considered a career in politics? Pope has also made several saves.

RTG reduced tonight to claiming we’ve spent more than Man U, transfer-wise - “close to a billion”, apparently - so should be hammering them every time.

There’s nothing inverted about the countless inverted, right-footed runs he has made from left-back, both in recent weeks and when playing there last season vs the occasional overlap a la Monday night? Righto.

Agreed. A very good right-back, but less effective going forward than he is on the other side, where he’s basically a near-perfect modern-day inverted full-back. I really wouldn’t be surprised if one of the cartel came in for him.

I’ve only just learned that our win on Sunday was pre-agreed, courtesy of corruption. Thanks, as ever, to RTG for their investigative work.

RTG is full of bile, obviously, but @nelford_safc has taken the last 48 hours worse than any of them. Genuinely astonishing - and epically sad - levels of bitterness.

Mad. But not quite as mad as Sunderland’s situation being compared with Ukraine and Palestine…

“Only live for sex and danger!”

I mistyped there. I meant to say I also jacked in my s-t when Ashley binned off Rafa.

What about categorising members based on how many ballots they’ve applied for? I was a s-t holder until Ashley was binned off and I’ve applied for all but one of the home games since the system was introduced. Games attended? One. Another thing I used to do, in addition to holding a s-t, was sing at matches. I also never booed a Newcastle player off the pitch…

Of course there’s no comparison between both at their best. But Bruno was as bad in that second half as Longstaff has ever been.

It’s clear he at least needs a rest.

Seriously, if Longstaff had put in the “shift” Bruno did today… He was appalling.

Abysmal today.

I'm in the same boat, having jacked in (in protest) when Rafa was binned off. Looking for tickets for me and my two lads, as it's been a rough year for all of us. But only two potential chances so far - both in Club Wembley, priced at either £1700 or £900 per ticket...
