The reason some players don't get to the level they should is because of inconsistency - whether that be attitude or ability. Most fans will quickly (rightly) pick on those with questionable ability and an inconsistent attitude, The frustrating ones are those with obvious ability but...

Frustrating - this is where you want the next game asap, to forget about this one. What would be really great is if there were a massive freeze, with games called off until we can get Kelly back and make some new signings!

Need to hang in there until January window and see a) what business he can do then b) re-assess at the end of the season. Doing anything now will definitely create further instability - something we do not need.

Oneof those games where we have sounded completely clueless. Really hope CWR are brave enough to ask some probing questions, Although MR will probably be seething, so I guess they'll stay well clear. Most probing quesion' Did Duckens have a bit of a knock?'

Only the 3 points matter, but it will be funny watching highlights of games with slightly/very dodgy pitches with snow falling/around the edge of pitches. I used to love all of that - mind you, games used to take place on pitches that would never happen now (albeit the top clubs all have...

Yep - 6 weeks - bit of a blow, but it's important to get him properly healed (no pun intended). One or two can fill in, and should give us more attacking initiative. Important Doyle stays fit. As well as Stevenson, Vincenti can play inside, as can Shipley - several options.

Just had a trawl through the Sunderland forum thread. To be fair, although there were the expected anti-Coventry brigade, there were a fair few sensible posters on there too - and quite a strong message of all being deserving causes, on the basis of need and deprivation, which I think is a fair...

Like an 'It's a knockout' special !

Can't be arsed with any sour grapes from elsewhere - I just want the City to have a much needed kick start. It would be nice for people to regain that bit of lost pride in our city. If the football team can be a part of that, all the better. Any way you look at it, it should give the whole City...

Going to be a few degrees colder over the next few days, too ! Hopefully the Duck will run about a bit more to stay warm.

I would want at least 9 from that batch of games.

I agree about the Wycombe game - does anyone else agree it's nearly all down to the big beast up front. If I were manager, I'd push our back four as high up the pitch as possible and be on at our players to give away as few free kicks as possible (although I know that the last bit's a bit...

One minute potential PL player, then being made to look a mug by a low level team. That's youngsters for you. Good that they (hopefully) learn in games that don't matter,

Just voted - 14% now! Come on guys - get busy!!

Mustn't lose.game for me - fancy us to win 2-1 or 2-0

Good following at this time of year - really important game for us as well, as Wycombe (Akinfenwa) at home will potentially be a tough one.

I used to like Fergie (& Wallace was my hero) but lay off the 'mong' stuff?

Stoke will definitely sell their allocation - so 6k of them - assuming police allow it - surely we can sell getting on for 9k. Embarrassing if there are only 10k in attendance, with 6k being from Stoke!

Hoping MR man marks Peter Crouch with the 2 DKEs in one of those one piece comedy outfits, like in the circus - one sat on top of the other's shoulders - that'll confuse him.

Only remembered I was there when you mentioned the sit in ! That was funny. I was in the City part of the West End. Was it around then that Shilton had been caught cheating on his missus, and City fans were singing about 'Tina in the back of a Cortina' or some such classic melody!?
