How's it going, Mitro? You're English is coming on good, son.

Shall we have a whip round and buy a stake? £100 between us should get us at least 20% ownership of the club?

'Jackie is dead' at Roker about Milburn.

I heard a bit of their phone-in. Criticism of new manager who's only been in charge for two games? Confirmed. ☑️

It just won't be mentioned especially with them being in the championship.

Wor Kev's kid. Spitting dabs.

Need to look up, not down. Four wins, three draws will probably do it, all these aren't all going to go on and win six or seven.

Praise the lord for Sunderland, truly, and I mean truly, the gift that never, ever, stops giving.

Had a feeling Liverpool would be a bit leggy after inter Milan away, the Scouse twats!

The players and Eddie looked like the cat that got the cream at the end there.

It might take ten years to win the league but it sure as fuck isn't going to take ten years to get a CL spot if Man U and these are the benchmark, as for Arsenal and Tottenham? How the 'big 6' moniker still gets mentioned is an absolute fucking joke. They keep praising Howe and the difference he's made including the players but everyone just falls short of explaining what one of the big problems was and why he should've been peddled miles before he was.

No idea who Lucy Ward is but she's light years better than the usual McManaman. West Ham on top here, mind. Could do with a few minutes possession up the pitch.

Had a tip at work, put a tenner on it, 'Burst your lips' at the 3.40 at Doncaster.

Jenas, Rio Ferdinand and Joe Cole I think on BT? (I missed the start). Mensa think tank if it is.

Fucking get in!!!

Fucking backpass to their keeper man!!

Dan Burn is basically Jack Charlton isn't he? Runs like him and not too dissimilar in looks, both born in Ashington. We're fucking clueless in and around their box.

Fucking hell, we just don't anticipate where the ball's going in their box

Mind, still need to pick him up better.

And there's the punishment.

Silly yellow.

Still think we'll need a set piece to score from a knock down as I can't see anyone gambling on a run and being able to finish it.

Pretty sure, and it's really hard to believe, but Sunderland thought they were going to emulate or better the Mags and our promotion three years earlier under Cox/KK/Terry Mac by getting in highly rated McMenemy and highly decorated Kennedy and thought they'd be the place to be at? Just like Butcher spending a similar amount to KK the year after we pissed the league but then somehow managing to have a relegation battle instead.
