Their form at the end of last season was also tremendous. One gets the feeling that DOD would say the same of any team in this league. I'm delighted with our start, and our squad is much stronger than last year's. I think we will win on Saturday and gain automatic promotion, but I agree with...
He played really well today until going off injured. Was really strong in the air. I don't think we would be able to replace him with a better player, or one with more potential.
It was a good performance today, from about 35 minutes we dominated the game, and could have scored more. I thought Vincenti did ok, always taking the ball, and passing it on. Didn't hide when things didn't go right. Lot of confidence in the crowd and on the various forums, understandable, but...
Yep, Wolves were the real enemy - see 'Dougans on the Western front' etc. and yes, as a 12,13,14 year old, went to away matches on the coach, Wolves, Sheffield U, Leicester, Forest, Leeds etc. No segregation, I spent most of the time scared witless!
Should be a great atmosphere on Saturday
Should be a really good atmosphere on Saturday and if you took 2,560 to Chesterfield on Saturday - respect! May I apologise for the standard of this thread, it's quite incredible! Good luck after Saturday!
Crickey RSB! How old are you?? My grandad used to sing that in the 60's! Aye aye aye, Glazier is better than Yashin etc. And you got the words dead right! A great memory! He was a Sunderland fan, and my guess is that this is a really old song. You'll remember this one aimed at the original and...
It's going to be tough next week, and I don't think we should get carried away on the back of one result. Grimsby will be up for it, and a draw at this stage of the season may well prove to be a good result. Slade failed badly with us, but we should remember that almost everyone on his forum...
Yes, a very different scenario, although a fair point, until we start playing competitive matches, we won't know. They have a full pre season, although more to come in. Presumably MR is fully aware of this, and why he is moving quickly to get players in.
