didn't maratimo just play on from a drop ball against us?

80th goal of the calender year

I'm convinced the likes of Martinez, Jol, Laudrup etc would have us playing much better than we are at the moment. they probably would right now, but none of them would want to move a club who despite being given there best season in donkeys years, sacks their manager after a dozen sub standard performances. we need long term stability, not short term good football.

the abuse on here is so OTT all the going on about how he plays a 4-4-2 all the time and how dreadfull it is. did everyone just ignore the whole 45 mins we spend playing with Sammy, Shane and Anita behind Ba? or the fact for the brief moment when we played 4-4-2 in the second half before we were one goal down we actually played some of the best and most fluid football this season? massive problem for me is, like Pardew said, is at the back, we dont look like the solid unit we did last year and its hard to build a decent attack when you can't trust the people behind you if it goes wrong.

i wonder at what point they'll realise most of the 2 threads called sunderland has been spent laughing at their forum

off to Newcastle now for this match, this season has been the first since the relegation i've left mine feeling abit about the whole thing. 2-0 loss.

he must have got a new intern this season or something.

While I agree with you, he still needs to work a little harder. We dont seem to be seeing the same movement from him as we did last year, little runs round the back of Defenders. But yeah, we certainly need to create more for him without doubt. Should give him the next pen we get. spends too much time facing away from goal, trying to collect hoofs from Williamson, to do that.

like they'd do that to us, they have to keep us happy or we'll fuck them about with both Dembas.

dont be silly... he can't get close to anyone the way he backs off.

"a skin shed by a tarantula which Steven Taylor delighted in using to chase team-mates and staff around. He scared Medical Secretary Kate Dunn in the dining room, then ran after a petrified Andy Woodman before bursting in on Tim Krul as he received a massage. "

we've witnessed history here tonight. Shola Ameobi: International sensation!

great assist for their third.

he looked proper pissed off at Shola and Shola was just giggling away

if he scores

he is on!

racist 2-0, Nosa. fantastic strike from miles out.

1-0 Nigeria, Brown.

bet365 tells me Nigeria are 1-0 down. EDIT: they've changed it back to 0-0. EDIT AGAIN: finally able to see it. only took 42 mins

i appear to be watching a replay of Ireland v Greece instead

staying up for it, so he better play!

voted for wor hatem... even if his was far from the best.

Wickham scores for the u21s

10 years on and still no club has repeated what we did that night.
