Paul Dumb Shit.

That's mighty close

Great first half that. Looks bang at it, hope he's got plenty in the tank left.

Unlucky Murph. Caught that lovely

Tony Harrington - shite

How the fuck is that not a yellow?

Anderson looks like he's in the mood. Would love him to get a goal.

Never realised you could just haul players down off the ball and get away with it. About four times that's happened now, all against us of course.

What a fucking player Isak is man. That's incredible.

There's Willock and White who he trusts at least, and then a couple auld senior bodies to take the sting out / run clock down late on. For this season it's been much worse

Lamb skewers.

Here's hoping.

I wouldn't sell Isak at any price tbh, even the £120m+ figures being bandied around last summer wouldn't do it. Not sure if I'm in the minority here or not but if I absolutely had to sell one of him or Bruno, reluctantly it would be BG. Isak is a generational talent, if we can set the side up around him and keep him right he'll get 25 league goals nae bother. Look the figures he's posting whilst half fit in a side not creating many clear cut chances for him.

Best have a good read of that match thread before it's swiftly parsnipped

Got one back, the 3,500 massive lads fans left in went wild

Soccer Special presenter just said "and lots of Sunderland fans leaving as Blackburn get a third" Must have it wrong, they never leave early marra.

Wonder how many of the ones leaving at 0-2 before HT are the same ones who defiantly sang "Sunlin til I die" every time we scored in the derby? "SUNLIN TIL WE'RE TWO DOWN"

Got to hope he's got a few swansong performances in the locker similar to Old Trafford and the City LC games.

The third one was the most rage-inducing for me. He just stood there rooted to his line, bouncing up and down like nowt was happening as Bowen advanced on him, before a floppy dive where he didn't really get anywhere near it despite the shot not being bang in the corner at all. It's like he's constantly got a bungee rope attached to him that won't let him travel more than two or three yards off his line. Absolutely chod on the first two goals as well mind you. Conceded 3/4 shots on target and almost threw it away when he wandered into no man's land as Soucek came in at the back stick. The step down from Pope to him is absolutely gargantuan, both in terms of quality and the fit for the style we play.

Good cameo today, would start him Tuesday.

Same problems remained but his subs were good especially considering the limitations of the injuries forcing his hand. Not sure what to make of the whole game tbh big list of good and bad stuff. Good result regardless, well done to him and JT who looked buzzing.

Utter utter clown

oh aye. Will dig it out later
