I thought Johnson would be fit too.

I'll go for 1-0 Fletcher.
Just what I'd heard. Think he might not be fully fit, maybe a slight knock in training or something?

Looking forward to the game mind, CC looks like a good centre back, still unsure of Rose though.

Keep forgetting we've got Saha too hehe

Good play from Sunderland for the goal, but we were second best sadly.

We had our moments, perhaps could've pushed harder but we defended well and played some neat football.

They could have easily grabbed a winner and although I wanted a win at the start, I'm fairly happy with a draw. We've played some good teams and to be undefeated is still good.

Fletcher - 3 shots and 3 goals, he should shoot more often hehe

Fletcher looks like a decent signing eh. Unfashionable, but seems to get the job done and stick it in the net! How is his general play? (Completely off my radar)
More of a traditional style CF. Good in the air, good positioning and shooting but not full of pace or flair.

Similar in style to Grant Holt but less physical and more precise IMO at least

I'm going to the match tonight, would like to see us start with two up top, sick of watching us play boring, flat football relying on Fletcher to score goals.

Mignolet has kept us in a few games and Danny Rose has been excellent IMO

Flat as a witches tit.

What happened to pass and move? Middlesbrough were the better team and deserved to win, we deserved nothing.

I've never seen a team look so lost. No creativity, no movement, no shooting and frankly no idea!

Well its Sunderland so you kind of expect these things.
We build ourselves up, have renewed hope, and without fail SAFC will kick you in the bks.

We'll get the usual crap from the players mid week, you know - "we have to pick ourselves up".
MON's full time email is a bit...erm...worrying. "We didn’t deserve to get beaten" he says. Sorry Martin, we did and we were awful. Again.
yes His full time emails piss me off, goes on about how well we paid.

It's like giving someone a medal for taking part in sports day. Don't worry that you achieved fk all and were ste, have a pat on the back

A bit of excitement at last and something to talk about!

Under MON this season we've played the most boring, bland football. Odd timing for the sacking but we'll see how it pans out, could be a stroke of genius or a moment of madness hehe

What a performance! Everyone looked good today, sharp, fit, intelligent. Vaughn, I could kiss you after that finish.

Crucial 3 points, come on Man Utd now!

Thank you Arsenal. Apart from thrashing Newcastle at their place and Paolo's purple diamond jumper that's been a season to forget.

A win at spurs now and the mags to get battered and we can sort of finish on a relieved high...

Danny Graham to get a hat-trick hehe

Apparently he walked out the changing room after Di Canio lost his rag with him.
He's fking useless, he was awful against MK Dons, couldn't pass, head, hold the ball up or out.

He always looks around as he's unaware of what the hell is going on.

SELL SELL SELL

Or give to someone else to make their team worse hehe

Totally agree he just isn't a footballer worst player I've seen in a Sunderland shirt in the last 10 years.
And we've had some crap.
Bring back Milton Nunez, all is forgiven

Its all very depressing.
Stupidly I thought we'd build on last weeks result.
Come on, did you forget who you support, we never do that!

Millions invested, good training facilities, stadium etc and yet we seem forever to be bottom of the premier league or in the championship.

I've given up on football, despite last week's rarer than rocking horse st victory
