Skeletor Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Have to admit I'd find a draw disappointing. Only one team has failed to beat them so far this season and our players should be motivated after their humiliation last time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Haris Vuckic Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 We need to do them basically. Twice - equilibrium must be restored. That defeat still hurts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhoywhonder Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Altidore getting dogs abuse on Twitter from the mackems at the moment. Let's hope his mam isn't on twitter, or it could be Darren Bent all over again. It's all academic anyway, as the offending tweeters are all, of course.......(drum roll)....Mags! Good chance some are mags highlighting it will only alert the Mag wums to his account anyway Could they be Mags pretending to be Sunderland fans Mags one and all ;D http://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/sunderland-fans-who-are-tweeting-altidore-shit.825342/page-3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Getting a head of ourselves again I think Yup. People confidently predicting a win last year and we got dicked. I will take a point as I always would in a derby tbh Really don't understand this mentality..... they are s*** and only have one point all season i wouldn't accept anything less than 3 points. If i'm getting ahead of myself then so be it but we really shouldn't be accepting a point against this lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A disgrace is probably a bit of an exaggeration But honestly, if we approach it right and let the football do the talking we should be bringing back all 3 points. Should.

alexf Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Yeah I don't agree with the "take a draw for every derby because it means you don't lose" If that was the case then you would miss out on all those great days like the 5:1. Sure occasionally you have to take the good with the bad and you may once in a while get a horrible day like last season but surely it's worth it for the joy of when we beat them. Plus if you look at recent history, I'm always far more confident we will beat them than they will beat us and would see a draw as minimum for home games and see it as a decent result for away games against them. Last year we were just a mess and they caught us on a day where we seemed to be hungover from being dumped out of Europe. Our lot weren't up for it, Sunderland were with their new manager giving them a boost and not to mention we had a perfect goal ruled out to make it 1-1 and they basically scored with each shot they had. The chances of lots of factors like that all conspiring against us again are slim in my opinion. Also think were a stronger side this year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klaus Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 If it wasnt a derby match, with all the added pressures that go with it, i would expect us to beat this lot comfortably every match. I expect us to win but it will be a close contest and i hope the referee gets the big decisions right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MKSC Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 What does this form book look like, and why are people always throwing it out of the window. If they don't want it they should just take it down to the charity shop or something. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The form book goes out of the window in a derby game. People always say this but when we had a good side and they were struggling, we beat them almost every time we met. Fair enough the poorer side might be up for it and battle harder than normal but at the end of the day the better team normally wins the derby just like any other football game.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 20, 2013 Share Posted October 20, 2013 Is it me or did Poyet look utterly downtrodden during his post-match comments yesterday? I'd have thought after his first game he'd be trying to look for positives. Instead he seemed utterly disheartened. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He already seemed as if he was resigned to going down, it was kind of a 'can't polish a turd' attitude. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
