Being human and life aren't easily addressed, mitigation like this is far from meaningless.

Apropos of nothing really don't know how many stopped back long enough to catch the regular post match playing of "We Wish You Well" by Whitesnake back in 93/94. It really fit a calm after the storm feeling of the atmosphere in those days and as you headed home - being the last thing you'd hear there but was there some link to Keegan tailing off many interviews of the time saying "wish you well"? Just whenever I hear it, I always wonder that.

The goal is completely on Lascelles for me. Pope had to come otherwise it was a simple square pass once Schar had to come over and a tap in - better than a one on one situaton. To percentage wise was worth the risk of a chance of getting there or at least putting some pressure on the forward who otherwise was under none. People would have lambasted him for not coming then.

Like what the players and manager have done has bought them no time or benefit of the doubt at all.

The amount of times people seem gagging to slag off half the team and the manager despite the amount of times they're shit support and opinions are shown up (they were at a game we ended up winning 8-0 ffs) is galling.

In total charge. Like turning a tugboat around when you've had no possession all game and now trail.

again, like on Wednesday and the last month your support is wretched

Would have been worth signing McTominay just to avoid that.

And we've got Pearson.

Sheffield United next for Man United. No win situation perhaps as it wont prove any corners have been turned but no doubt Ten Hag will play that card. Imagine if it goes the other way though. He'll definitely be gone then.

"Mackems in home defeat - crowd trouble, police's fault shocker" Fans Throwing stuff at opposition thread "why?" asks the OP" "Running to the home corner of the oppositions stadium to celebrate." Oh well that's fully justified then. Should have ran to the other end and climbed up to the top tier to celebrate with their own fans.

Must be the third or fourth time alone this season they've got carried away by a few results and been brought back down to earth in humiliating style. The neurotic numbskulls never learn. Feels like wins in that fixture must be 9 in 10 to Boro for decades. Bit like pre Ashley NUFC.

Another Ohno!na mistake for Man U apprently.

I've read that, probably on here, but it surely cant be as it reads - nobody will ever be able to build a new stadium from this point forth and you'd be nuts with a stretched budged to expand too. Its so ridiculously restrictive - you cant expand even though you can afford it, it makes perfect business sense, is good for the economy and the demand is there just because - that in football, with the utter fear of threats to the establishment, I can well imagine it.

There's a thread about a couple of their fans going to the PSG game and they're being dismissed not real Sunderland fans, scum etc. Kevin Ball, who would get on their Mount Rushmore (is a thread stating so) did exactly the same. Took his kid to our Champions League games. Stated as much, openly, on TV. Wonder how they're wrestle with that. *Also saw Paul Bracewell as a candidate for their Mount Rushmore. He gave us really good service, I've nothing against him and he's clearly a much better player than Ball ever was based on careers but he wouldn't have threatened getting on the Mount Rushmore of any starting XI he was in for us never mind of all time.

Gareth 'interesting' Southgate with another outside of the box, creative selection

I'd be disappointed if he wasn't cackling like VIncent Price the background after a fourth or fifth now.

The hosting of games at another major tournament and the possible, hopeful revisiting of remodelling passes almost unnoticed

I don't mind Vicki Sparks at all which suggests its not about sex but ablity and style and to be fair cant stand most of the male commentators now either. There's just no art to it now. Pundit-wise there's a tendency to want some experience at the level they're pontificating on but at the same time since John Burridge's rant back in the day about not having a worthy opinion unless you've played I realised that's too blanket. The opinions of many footballers from the highest level might be interesting to know but whether they could transfer it into punditry or opinionated brain farts is random (Merson for example). Women hosting is seamless. Having a crush on Eilidh Barbour helps. That said Keegan's not said anything I disagree with.

Remember them getting caned 5-1 at Bayern I think the night we beat Barcelona. (only because it was on the same tape)

Aye. Feared for him after Sheffield Wed last year. Looked slow and a liability to be honest but he's stood up, never any question about his attitude tbf, and played really bloody well and really smartly. A bonus. Chuffed for him, he earned a moment like this like the rest of us after all the s**t.

What this bloke could do in a few more windows and without injuries. A 0-0 away from home and a thumping home win against two of the best teams in Europe is the classic stuff of experienced dab hands at European football. Wasn't even our best shot tonight. Was an absolute disgrace doubting this bloke and slagging off this team. They're a small fraction as good at their jobs at this club as Eddie and team are.

Horatio the Lads

They've always been like that. They're a hooligan club. Marseille were fine when they were here at least. They (PSG) went on like that at Man City of all the places to superfluously act hard without cause.

Since 1985, they've got less top flight wins, goals and points than Wimbledon. Who haven't even existed for 20years.
