If he isn't all up in my screen at the WC the BBC have missed a massive trick. He's millions times better than anyone ITV will have.

i.e. not Brazilians

Ignorance Brazilian people are one of the most hard working people in the world. Don't mistaken the people with the government. While obviously the nearer you get to the equator the lesser things get done. Only winding you up flip it's clear to the world that when Brazilians say they'll do something, they'll maybe do it.

what is going on? Why would we drop our best player? Too much watching Newcastle I assume.

He's not worse, he humiliated Pards 4-0 at St. James. Still a muppet as well though. A Pardew team 3 years in the making, nonetheless. He literally turned up and said 'don't give them the ball that much' and they won.

Maybe they were lost.

Italy would be annoyed. Seems to be a culture there to not be disrespectful to your opponents and never go higher than 3-0.

That's incredible. Bit concerned at still seeing loads of 'artist' pictures when we're a few months away

Would rather we spent that kind of money on someone good.

He's most likely finished as a footballer. Preparing for the future can only be a good thing. He's most likely finished as a footballer. Preparing for the future can only be a good thing. Back in August We'll see. Spending two years on the sidelines at this stage of his career will surely ruin him? At least at the top level. He can't have got any worse.

How the hell does a man who writes like that get a job in journalism? It's f***ing staggering. Absolutely loads of blowjobs.

Fucking sentence boy Ryder

Think he was being sarcasmogorical.

it was

it doesn't wooooooooo

You are all killing it with your rancid patter.

Not being cheeky - but anyone who doesn't rate him needs medical help.

I doubt it would make much difference tbh. The only tactics we seem to employ are to keep plenty of people behind the ball. What would be the worst that could happen if Carver and Stone weren't able to replicate that? We might concede a few more and we might score a few more. I'm going off Stone saying he didn't know how we lost because we ran more and kicked the ball longer.

It's difficult to imagine, but the football under Carver and Stone would be even more grim. It would defy belief.

I've been saying this for a long time. How amazing would it be if we could have banter about our successes, rather than taking the p*ss out of each other because of our failures ? We can always hope. Anyway, I had an amazing day yesterday with my 10 year old son. I'll not lie, I was gutted by the result, but very pleased with the way the team played. Two wonder goals finished us off, and sometimes you have to hold your hands up in defeat and admit the better team won. As a Sunderland fan, days like yesterday don't come very often, and I lapped it up. I want more, and if we beat Hull at the weekend we could be doing it all again ! Special mention for the referee yesterday, he was excellent. Back to the real world today though, and most of the league results went our way over the weekend, so it's not all doom and gloom. Glad you had a good day out with your son.
