Get the fuck in! Superbly worked goal.

Charlton v Sunderland in the play offs, you say? "Memories Light the corners of my mind Misty water-colored memories Of the way we were...."

Play offs only now for Sunderland. Squeaky bum time now at the 3rd division club.....

2-1 to Barnsley.

He was Boro's answer to the likes of Clarky, Stevie Watson, Robbie Elliott etc. Except he never played in a really good team. Or was a good player. Fuck it, here he is in another shit team doing the biz..... 'Jimmy Bollock' of the Boro.

Any idea which spectacularly gifted player this was?

@Monkeys Fist putting the wanking smilie on hold till he ascertains that that's definitely a bit of fanny, (what with it being Eurovision and all that, you never know).

They live off that 4-3 so zero chance they'll be ditching that footage any time soon. Off the top of my head I struggle to recall any such disappointed players/manager footage from any other of the regular clubs near the top when they've been beaten in an important fixture. Some clubs seem to get a bit more respectful deference more through self preservation probably, but still.

Fucking laughable how sky built up a title decider in the latter stages of the season and a derby as well then spend all pre-match and post-match talking about the losers and also rans rather than the actual title race. Can you imagine last nights game in hand for Man City was against us and they beat us this time. How much time would've been used to talk about NUFC? We'd have been the same irrelevance to their title narrative as Man U should've been once they'd been dusted aside. As for the losers, fair play to Keane who was closer to the truth than Neville who used the classic 'agents fault' instead of calling out the player involved, but even Keane questioned the desire when surely it's not just down to desire, some of their players are just not good enough to be anywhere near a title challenging side. We all pissed ourselves laughing when the Norwegian Carver© got the job and to the surprise of no fucker at all he's hit the Glenn Roeder season 2 stage in season 1 already. 26 years trying to buy the title is a fond memory and I reckon there's a chance they could emulate that. (10 years is a knocking bet).

Fuck me, Sky have an absolute raging bone on for Leeds, like. They're on just about every week and I see one of their channels has highlights from derby v Leeds followed by West Brom v Leeds.

You don't understand, there's a cabal of mysterious Tyneside businessman with huge investments in league one paying massive bonuses to opponents of Sunderland to keep them down and keep Newcastle up or something.

Btw, did we ever get a definitive answer to how many of our players would get in their team?

It'll be tough next year with Ipswich dropping down.

Lads, I don't know why we're laughing, it's no big deal because if they don't go up it'll be perfectly fine and a....

Ole Gunnar Jack Dross going over to the classiest fans in the 3rd division applauding them for their support and apologising to them, especially all the Feyenoord fans and all the other fans of the many, many clubs they have a special connection with who've travelled to London road. FTM.

Things worse than I thought at Man U......

It's amazing how British broadcasters can hang a player or manager out to dry and play massive parts in players being banned yet completely overlook certain other clubs or players barely mentioning a thing if at all. I remember Keys very quickly shutting down Beresford as a pundit for a Man U game v Liverpool I think, when Beresford correctly called out Gary Neville for some top level shithousing saying he's a good player who sometimes gets involved with stuff he shouldn't. Went down like a lead balloon on sky and funny enough I never saw Bez on sky again even though he wasn't shy and comfortable in front of the cameras unlike some other ginger ex-Man U midfielder I can think of who BT put on now and again. Keys actually said 'you can't say that' and very quickly changed the subject IIRC. Protected species and look who sky targeted as soon as his career ended to be the new Andy Gray alongside a former Liverpool player who'd just called it a day as every football fan will only respect the opinions of players of those two clubs.

Imagine us getting a penalty for that?

It may well be ignorance on my part but you'd really struggle to find a needier, more desperate fan base than theirs.

Charnley's statement just reinforces my decision not to go back till that cancer fucks off from our club. I'd love to see the day he's gone and would happily see the likes of Charnley marched around the town in a pillory getting rotten fruit pelted at them.

I've no doubt whatsoever that we'll still lose out to the usual suspects when it comes to VAR. VAR will help them more than it will us. (When we should really only benefit from it giving the decisions we just don't get).

No special relationship at all as even though they hate Coventry and it's no doubt reciprocated, they probably hate us more as everyone hates 'the mags' and thinks we're deluded.

And it isn't for sale.

I've got this one......
