    Geoff Hurst's shot did go over the line against Germany - time to end all of this. Be glad when the Lincoln game is under way!

    As you've watched the game back for a 2nd time, I won't quibble with any marks (tend to agree about Jones 2nd half performance. although I thought we were ponderous in getting the ball up the pitch in the 2nd half and more particularly getting it to Jones early enough) How do you get to watch...

    If he stays on his line (in general) then he has a wider area to cover (if I remember anything about angles)?

    Would you have Reid back then G ? or play Shipley there? Interested as to as how you would mix it up, if it's not working?

    Just logged on first time since match. Thought it was a good battle between the team, good atmosphere too. I would be tempted to play Haynes in front of Stokes and stick Jones on the right wing. For me, although we are solid in the middle, we are hamstrung if we can 't open them up on the flanks...

    What, he's called ' Bang on the Money'? Some weird names about these days.

    Embarrassing things you forgot....

    Years ago my dad drove us home from The Home Guard Club in Leamington, someone asked him to turn the radio on, and it wasn't there. Unbelievably our car keys had fitted an almost identical car and we were nearly back in Cubbington before we noticed. Returned and found the owner drinking in a...

    We got the curly perm version, not the greasy long haired version that scored in the final !!

    Only three Sunderland fans travel to Checkatrade Trophy match

    I was on my own with only my mate's heavily pregnant wife (City season ticket holder) for company to see a viewing of Fever Pitch (Arsenal's lowest ever crowd? She was getting fed up waiting for her daughter to be born, so I agreed to spend a strange afternoon praying I didn't need hot water...

    I keep having to check back every so often that Peter Shilton was briefly on our books !

    20 years ago today since....

    One of my favourite games watching Dion was when he played at Centre half away against Leicester, scored 2 headers as we beat them 2-0, and sitting on my hands amongst Leicester fans who were frothing at the mouth and trying to 'spot' any CCFC fans in the stand I was in (missed me !)

    Preferred Bjarni Gudjonsson myself - but neither touches Roger Van Gool in our chocolate away kit winning at Leicester

    Cheer up Northern - you're basing this on last season's travails. Gone is Russell Slade time, it's now Ponti time !

    Like it - Ponticelli sounds Italian, and Vincenti looks like the leaning Tower of Pisa !

    3 points please. Looking forward to this. McNulty and Ponticelli to lead the line with The Duck away.

    Goalscorer

    I'm still slightly leaning towards the fact that I think we have a reasonable back up squad to deal with injuries/suspensions, which other clubs may struggle with. I guessed (rightly or wrongly) that November - December was when we may see that come to our advantage. May end up eating humble...
