Because after that, some of the players who are literally named and numbered on the charts were no longer on the pitch. You want their positions tracked for 30 minutes whilst they're sitting stationary on the bench? Though you could argue for Rashford it wouldn't have changed it much...

"To see Matt Busby's Aces..."

After thar result I'm going to have a dislocated cock.

Yeah, it's doubled to £2.

Tbf in fast time I just saw it hit his arm, I didn't see it hit his chest first. I thought it was less a penalty in slow time than in normal time.

Me going into work tomorrow...

Going by the Man U and Chelsea games, normal protocol is to stick 3 or 4 past the opposition and then get riotously drunk.

Quite honestly I'd take a loss provided we don't get any injuries.

DCL is made of rice paper and Blu Tack. Doesn't matter how good a player he is, you can't trust him to run 50 yards without his legs exploding. In a laid-back, calm side then maybe he can contribute in a limited way, but he'd not get past 10 minutes in our uber-press system before at least one limb fell off. Ridiculous link. Whoever wrote it should be launched into the sea.

We won fuck all as everyone's second favourite team, so bring on the hate and a trophy please.

You don't have to have your pants on, you just have to stop shitting and put your seagull down.

Just needed to play facing a shit enough quality of goalkeeper.

All this crap being thrown on the pitch, they should just abandon the game and give us 3 points

I'm fully behind automatic 1-week bans for anyone who posts a lineup with the GK at the top.

We're not? Everyone seems in total agreement as to who is looking up where.

STM with Pope up front and Wilson in goal. Bold.

Wilsosn Willock Livramento Joelinton Longstaff Bruno Hall Schar Lascelles Trippier Pope

Unless the team sheet is going for SHENANIGANS then it's highly indicative of it being Hall left back, Tino on the wing. And that feels right to me, otherwise we end up with Trippier at left back when he's far more effective creatively on the right.

100% agree, he seems a lovely bloke and I reckon I'd love to sit down with him for a chat, but I'm somewhat traumatised by watching him plod about the pitch fucking up chance after chance for FORTEEN YEARS, and I'd be very happy if his role with the club was basically limited to this, ie being our equivalent of an ASDA greeter.

Fuck em. UEFA can get in the bin. Barcelona count it, so I'm certainly counting it.

My bad. It's late and I thought they'd been in the UEFA for some reason.

That's missing our 12 matches in the Intertoto Cup. Sure, the Intertoto is shit, but it's competitive European football and counts.

Tomorrow will of course be our 4th European match this season. It'll be our 100th UEFA Cup / Champions League match (Ie equal to or better than the level Sunderland played their 4 matches in), and our 138th European match overall. We've won 75 games in Europe so far. Sunderland have scored a total of 5 goals in Europe in their history. Alan Shearer, Shola Ameobi, Craig Bellamy, Wyn Davies, Pop Robson, Tino Asprilla, Nobby Solano, Obafemi Martins, Keiron Dyer, Patrick Kluivert, Laurent Robert, Jim Scott and Gary Speed have all scored at least that many for us as. Shola Ameobi has scored 3 times as many goals in Europe for us as Sunderland have in their history.

I can help with that. It's because both of them have sustained stress fractures of their lower back.
