Wolfcastle

They're having a pop at the atmosphere last night. Worth noting that when they were in this situation there was about 30,000 there, 5,000 Man United fans and 18000 empty seats. The atmosphere at SJP was probably better than that against Burnley in the 2nd round of this cup last season under Bruce than their semi. A like for like comparison would be night and day, visually and audibly

Never lets you down. Sky, the Saudis and commentators part of a secret pro Mag order and are anti human rights: 'Have the Saudis paid off sky?' "something sinister going on, its as though sky are in cahoots." "the commentary love in is embarrassing. sportswashing at it's finest" "Sky always sucking you lot off. Saudi probably paying them. Embarrasing" "I’ve said it before they’ll be getting paid to big them up" "Tip of the iceberg mate" "John Murray wanking the clowns off on Radio 5 now." McCoist who briefly played for Sunderland 40years ago and had us for his testimonial makes the list: "Oh great, we have to hear that annoying wanker McCoist lick their arse all night." "Super ally right down in my estimation now praising the mags" Delusion/self comforting/avoiding responsibility for their poor attempts to replicate/ignorance re wor flags: "Have they dished out free scarves and flags again?" "Oh I wish we all were given scarves free to wave about" "Free Scarf Mags" ....and that was just the pre match. I couldn't cope with that much hate in my life never mind pre kick-off in a local rivals match

Atmos are more likely to go flat when the game is in the bag and you feel not needed and especially against a team so far beneath you. Was pretty anti-climactic once 2-0/3-0 up. Have to admit I felt it was won then and lost any tension at my end, got interesting again when Bruno was sent-off an things picked up again. The atmosphere at Old Trafford tomorrow will emphasise that.

Just assuaged that people are on it. Makes my blood run cold to think its only ourselves.

Had nearly 20years of lotto wins. Had a brief sabatical and won the c**t again

We've lost two players that weren't or barely were cutting the mustard when in the first team. Shelvey was useful just to take some strain off the other midfield lads. The two incoming, one likely will fit into the team and contribute more, the other has a clean slate plus the trust of the coaching/scouting team. Gordon is a better option of switching with Miggy than Murphy, Ashby could offer respite at the back after Lewis and Lascelles were particularly lacklustre against Sheffield Wed (allow Burn to move inside instead e.g.)

That should concern you. Always did me. 'why aren't I nervous? I'm asking for it' Won 2-0 mind

They'll get a big fine. So they love throwing money around, means nothing to them and their punishment will be to make them do more of what they love doing and means nothing to them. That'll teach them

All logic aside, the closer it gets through this last week, the more aware I've become that it can go wrong somehow.

Bothered me that they (and the like) were happy as pigs in shite about the utter joke of a club

On the above picture: Jeezas and how? (she'd only be punching above her weight a little bit with Ginola ffs)

The very least that can be said is he improves the squad, gives a better option off the bench or alternating with Miggy/ASM/whoever than Murphy. I'm 100% down with that. No point in seeing it any different - he's not being presented as our only signing for the forseeable or the player were going to build everything else around.

They just Flo'd in

Woah! I'm seeing treble here, nine Steves

Aye I'd pay that just to give some of the first choice defence a little rest

Raging Bullshit

I didn't watch the game and stats don't tell a full story clearly but a much changed Fulham had twice as many shots and 70% possession. Prime Barcelona's like the last style that's similar too.

Neil McDonald was considered a loss at the time I guess. Didn't pan out that way.

Still so exciting signing players when you're trying to go somewhere "I like buying players" - Kevin Keegan

They weren't disappointed to lose Beardsley or Speed to us either.

I still laugh at this. Its like his brain registers he's not being a c**t and overrides him.

We signed the similarly haired Andreas Andersson on this day

It was only West Brom I said looked half empty. That and Burnley are the only games I've seen footage of this season to judge anything on was what I meant. ,

Gordon and Maddison ^ Gordon > Gordon in ASM out v

Everton away in late April if both clubs are around where they currently are might be a bit edgey.
