I’d be hard pressed to tell the difference between injured or rubbish.

Glad you’re beginning to see the light AK! Now if only Ray could as well it would seem the age of miracles is not past.

Hallelujah!

We desperately, desperately, depsrately need a decent keeper - two howlers this afternoon already, 2 down and it's just half time. Depressing.

Sounds like what Liverpool should have done, what with all those Saints players they have bought! hehe

We just won't invest, and we'll either stay up by finishing 21st or we'll go down and it'll get worse, no point worrying about it at this moment in time IMO; it ain't my investment that's taking a wholloping

Watching the game - 0-0 at half time, but fk me, we're absolutely dreadful - there is not an ounce of quality anywhere in our team. So very depressing, not sure I can be arsed to watch the second half, think I'll pop up to the local instead.

5 mins into the second half and we're 1 down )(another goalkeeping blunder) and down to 10 men. I am definitely off to the pub. I may be gone quite some time.

2-0 now...

I'm almost glad to be offshore so I don't have to watch it hehe

Our team is woeful and in need of overhaul, sadly that won't happen

Appalling, abysmal, embarrassing - none of those words even begins to describe how bad we were today, that team would/will struggle in League One.

I can see us REALLY struggling in League 1. There'll be no swift return like last time when Denis Smith came in 87. Coleman looked like a haunted man on the touchline.
What price Short puts us into administration takes the 12 point penalty and we start afresh next season in the 3rd tier, and to think the mags hate Ashley look what Short has done to our club biggrin

Awful performance.

Sunderland generally need to wipe the club and start afresh. The fact John O'Shea is still starting for you and probably on about 50k a week is ridiclous as well.

Ellis Short can only recoup his money (or a portion of it anyway) by selling up, if the club went bust he would lose the lot as he has converted the investment in to shares, it wouldn't make sense to do that

External creditors calling in the administrators if they get worried about recouping their cash is the biggest concern, hence the desperation to offload any of the higher earning players at any price to keep outgoings down

We're fking doomed

That's as maybe but whens he ever done or been involved in anything that made sense when it comes to SAFC? Alvarez, Byrne, Bain, de Fanti, Johnson that's before I mention some of the managers he's employed
