[Archived] The Sunderland Preview Mark II

[philipl]

Cisse outmuscled Zura.

At the moment, we will do well only to go down 1-2.

[novella]

sunderland are a team that need to be beaten this season, they will be in and around us come the end of the season. disappointing.

Tugay on Peds off

[Rovers in America]

What happened to the utter domination in the first half/ Now we're just lucky to try to keep this close. Something happened at half time and it wasn't good.

There can be NO doubting that a) we have a substandard manager and B ) we are well and truly in a relegation battle.

I am not going to call for Ince's sacking, on principle I don't think it warrants it just yet, but if we were to sack him I would be delighted.

[wandel77]

The board must react now !

[Amo]

I wonder if we've got any 'get of jail free' cards left for the last minute.

[AussieinUk]

Defence is poor (Samba is playing well) and the organization is non-existent..

[philipl]

We have got our passing going again.

Still time to get back into this.

[Rovermatt]

What an effing joke. We are in serious trouble. Ince has to be on thin ice now.

I wish he was, but I don't think he is.

[Tom]

I wouldn't get rid just yet but I must admit Ince is giving the board something to think about.

[DudeAbides]

The board must react now !

I have to say i agree

[RibbleValleyRover]

Whats all this long ball stuff to Roque? Yes i know he is 6 foot 2, strong in the air and has a physical prescence . But it’s so predictable and easy to counter especially if the service isn't 100% accurate.

Need to play it on the deck more, we have Carlos and Tugs on the pitch FFS.

The board must react now !

I agree...

We need to start looking for another manager.

Even if we draw this (looking unlikely), the points total at home is totally unacceptable!

Pretty much my thoughts as well.

You only have to look at the central midfield partnership of Andrews and Mokoena to see how much trouble we are really in. I can't believe we keep playing Ooijer at left back either.

[philipl]

I wish he was, but I don't think he is.

Oh yes he is but this comment will bring a pack of Paulettes snapping at my post!

Let's hope we can find a couple of goals pdq!!!

[cn_barlow]

to be fair we played ever so well in the first half and should have got something from the game....

[tony gale's mic]

Newcastle have equalised, I do believe we are in the relegation zone.

[philipl]

We are beginning to create again- come on Rovers!

[bubblerrovers]

INCE OUT!!! simple as that.

[Rovers in America]

to be fair we played ever so well in the first half and should have got something from the game....

We really should have had more than 1 goal out of that first half.

[wandel77]

We are in the relagation zone with these results !

[philipl]

Wigan are going to be fuming over that sending off. Newcastle have equalised and that's us in the bottom 3 now.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Is it Ince to blame though?

The switching off could be down to the players. We switched off loads of times under Hughes and let the opposition get back into the game.

The Villa game we let them back into it just before half-time.
