This is painful again

[afro goal machine]

Commentators bumming arse off Sunderland

[Dutch Uncle]

Is it just me that thinks it was a soft penalty, not much contact and he fell very easily?

[bpoolrover]

It was a poor tackle that gave the ref no
Choice

[colincramb]

It be was a penalty. The most ineffective starting 11’s I think we’ve seen this century

[Sammy Chung was King]

A reason why the new manager hasn’t been announced. Start with an easier fixture.

Choice

'Tackle' assumes some sort of contact. I couldn't see any.

[sha66y]

That division below has activated its gravitational pull…..more power Scotty, more power!!

[jm291]

Painful to watch. Men vs boys literally. League 2 here we come

[bpoolrover]

We just don't no how to pass or put a decent tackle, looks like there scared to put there foot in

[Copps is Magic]

I know people have hiveminded McSheffrey into the job, but he's set us up here with massive gaps all over the pitch. Shape is the only thing we possibly could have done.

[The Beast]

Was that a pen?? Didn’t look any contact from where I was sat

[Glyn_Wigley]

And now the co-commentater thinks that taking a player out to get to the ball is 'a good tackle'. A Sunderland tackle, naturally.

[Copps is Magic]

Hiwula atrocious first touch.

[Dutch Uncle]

How many league games have Jones, Horton, Ravenhill, Hasani, Blythe and Olowu played between them?

The midfield 4 of Hasani, Ravenhill, Smith and Horton is so young and inexperienced

Circumstances dictating team selection. Just Anderson and Galbraith (effects of COVID according to Sky) would add a leader ath the back and some quality in midfield.   

[Northants Nomad]

Marginal but from the referee’s angle it looked very much like one. I think it was a pen. We’d have been claiming and fuming if we hadn’t got it.

[keith79]

The worst front 2 we have  had in the last 20 years. We recommend these?

[Glyn_Wigley]

Jesus Christ, having an opponent pulling the shirt off your back is now 'buying a foul'. FFS.

[Northants Nomad]

Let’s be optimistic in how we see this. This game was always likely to be a defeat and so it’s a free hit for a promising set of young lads who may not get a game in a couple of weeks if the new players come in. I’m heartened to see some of these names coming through. They may not be ready but by playing games like this, they have more chance of becoming ready.

[colincramb]

We aren’t even competing. It’s unforgivable how shit we have become

Not ready? They are nowhere good enough for this level

bone idle n all. Can’t stand him.

More about them than some of the so-called established players in the squad.

they should be out on loan and at the start of the season we should have signed some players that look like they could compete

[keith79]

I dont think we are playing that bad.

[anton123]

Gary Mac said in last interview if he was manager he would only need a couple of signing to add to an already competitive squad pmsl , that statement alone probably got him the job if he gets it , god help us

[keith79]

In all honesty we need 8/9 new players

[Glyn_Wigley]

I dont think we are playing that bad.

For a very inexperienced team, I think they're doing well to keep it to 1-0 given the constant pressure they're under.

And I don't think it should have been a penalty too.

You’ve changed your tune in last 2 mins haha

[Sammy Chung was King]

We’re staying in the game, if it stays like this we will get an opportunity to score.
