Even though they have all underperformed, I can't see how we can possibly get rid of Wright, Simms AND BTA Be a bit of a madness to let three strikers go. We need to keep one at least and the best of the three is Haji Wright

Shouldn't you be on Grindr for that sort of thing?

Merely from a parachute payment angle, it would be better for us for Sheff Utd to go up, wouldn't it? But I can't root for either side.

I'm going to wait and see if FL has anything to say about Wright. Whether he had been carrying an injury etc. Simms hadn't scored since the middle of February, so it could that FL felt he had to play Wright. Wright just hasn't played at all well or much of an impact on games for some time...

Saudi Arabia. 🙄 That country of virtue and upstanding. We deal with them too of course. We are so quick to criticise and label some regimes as awful, but the Saudis always appear to be our friends. The world is a very strange place at times.

Yeah, but it's been some time now. How many games since his last decent performance? You definitely expect something like an excellent performance every 3 games or so. How long since he really played well?

Definitely proud. To go up there are totally dominate the game for such long periods, was phenomenal. I am not going to slate any of the players after that performance. Wright, definitely off his game again, but I wonder if he is carrying a knock. Just weird to go so off the boil all of a...

You want me to PM you? 🤔

Nah. Not having that. Not as a given anyway. I honestly think the score could be anything. An easy win for them, and easy win for us, a 0-0 bore draw, or a 1 nil either way. Obviously if in our favour that means extra time. I don't think it's a forgone conclusion at all that Sunderland will win.

Good job we are at the right end of the table, otherwise I might have had to say to here "we're going down."

Right. I am missing the first half unfortunately, because I am working. I hope when I check the score at halftime, it's a zero in the Sunderland column. I would be very happy to see 0-0 or 0-1 when I check. If it's 0-2 or 0-3, I might even say something nice to my missus.🤞

Yeah I think we can all be relatively calm about tonight. Much more pressure on Sunderland. They have been around top all season long and are expected to win, especially with the 1 goal advantage. There is an expectation For us, it's a free shot with nothing to lose There is no expectancy...

Yeah, it would be fabulous if we could add to the squad, but we could well lose top players too, so it might prove to be a more reset mode. If we lost MVE, Wright and Rudoni, for instance, they would be hard to replace Hopefully we can build on what we've got. 🤞

He certainly does. At times he can be unstoppable, but we haven't seen that in quite a few weeks. I don't buy that he's lazy. That's just the way he plays, but he hasn't been on his game in terms of chances and goals has he He needs to come good tonight

So far.

Right, so you are throwing your phone out of the window and will have your curtains shut. 🤔 This is all, very, very helpful.

What model is it and where do you live? Just asking for a friend.

Only big chance? What about Sheaf's? Completely unmarked from that corner. There were a few occasions where the ball was bobbling around their 6 yard area and they just got the run of the ball. I would say Wright's at the end was a big chance too. Excellent defending from them though for that...

The great thing about tomorrow is, there is hardly any pressure on us at all. We can be a lot more relaxed in some ways. The expectation now is that Sunderland finish the job, so we do have a bit of a free shot at this one. I am so much more chilled about it. We don't go through, it's still...

Can only think the linesman thought the Stockport defender headed the ball, rather than the Orient forward.
