FA Cup Third Round: sunderland (A) 06/01/24 @ 12:45 - Live on ITV


Recommended Posts

Particularly for this season being an FA Cup match increases the importance. We need to win a trophy in my lifetime and this squad is capable of achieving that this year. It's a must get through tie with its importance heightened by our opponents.

Won't be watching this from Italy.

 

Could probably VPN it but feel it's better emotionally to try and distract myself, it's the first time I've ever been with my fiancé on her birthday. Determined not to ruin it for her.

Primitivo and Chianti, lots of Primitivo ok and Chianti. And avoid one-legged News Vendors.

A couple thoughts:

 

- That kid at the beginning, loving it. :lol: 

- Shola the Mackem killer. 
- That second goal would be ruled out today because of VAR. 

- Remember crosses? :lol: 

- Steve Bruce the useless fuck. 
- And this fucking dude:

Loved Hughton, man. 

Not to turn this into a VAR discussion, but watching that one of my first thoughts was how much better enjoying those goals was without any VAR doubt. Ridiculous day, felt like I couldn't believe what was happening. It being in the context of being newly promoted made it extra enjoyable too.

This should be a comfortable win for us, they are a decent Championship side at best and we have better players than them in every position on the pitch.

 

Unlike a usual cup tie against a lower league team, this isn’t one where only one side should be treating it as a cup final and motivated to shine.
 

If Howe can’t motivate the players today to come away with the win then any stores credit in the bank for him will be gone.

Why turn it about Howe at the end man. Just enjoy it all. Christ, utter misery. Will be looking forward to not hearing from you when we win :thup:

Hold your nerve, chaps. He is a very good leader.
