binnsy Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Don't know why i wasted an afternoon watching that shambles of a football game. I was commenting on facebook to a couple of mates at half time how bad the first half was and that i was going to switch to a different stream but didn't thinking it would improve but if anything it got worse!!! Two terrible footballing sides both playing 451 with no one from either side trying to get up and support the lone striker, too be fair both Crouch & Fletcher held it up well but got no support so in the end lost possesion time and again although the teams were that bad they would give the ball straight back once they did get it!

Village Idiot Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 The thing is, Sunderland actually have a decent footballing side when you look at the names on their squad... but every time I have seen them play they have just booted it up and ran behind the ball like headless chickens. I suppose that passes off as "tactics". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing better than a mid table side, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 They should just combine teams and become Sunoke FC and achieve 2 wins in 31 Stokerland surely? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing better than a mid table side, And that's a pretty good spine to build a team around, if you ask me. I don't mean they should be challenging for top 6, but certainly be better than the shambles I witnessed today and will forever scar my dreams.

Unbelievable Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 what the fucks going on with MON. He's clearly a top manager who most clubs would love to have, but apart from the honeymoon period it just is not working here, he needs his right hand man. its been said before but he really is more like clough than we could have imagined, first time in a while today i could not be arsed to watch the second half, went shopping in tesco with the mother in law instead. got a blowie tho so its all good Read more: http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=738701&page=107#ixzz2AWAPAzwX Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRC Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 In all honesty I'm still waiting for Pardew to play this passing style he was on about. I think most managers come out with that shite. It's the football equivalent of having sex, you wanna give it to your girl for hours and hours going through the karma sutra you full intend on doing it until its game time, then you revert back to what you know, 3 pumps then its all over.
