Literally fine margins in the case of the cup semi. Teams with 'loser mentalities' don't get to play in these kind of games. Calling it that is idiotic hyperbole. The verbal equivalent of a toddler having a tantrum because it hasn't got exactly what it wants.

Gimoc alludes to a lot of things, but you may as well listen to the cat. Fwiw, I don't think he's downed tools (Wright, not gimoc), it's just his personality; he loses heart easily and rather than scrap, goes within himself. It was the same when he arrived. He's bit lily-livered, but he's also...

Yes, really. If you think coming out on the wrong side of the most fine margins is 'bottling it', then I can't help you.

He isn't going. He needs this to be a success.

First leg they did a job on us, but were still extremely fortunate to get a victory. Last night they were second best by a considerable distance, and very lucky to get to extra time. Overall, I thought we looked the better team (which we probably are, just), though with very obvious...

That's an idiotic statement.

They were awful. Not objective at all.

Sulk away. But describing consistent appearances in genuinely massive games, positive results, an engaged fanbase and a squad that genuinely seems to care about playing for us as 'dark days' makes you sound like.... well, a Sunderland fan, frankly.

These aren't dark days! They're by far the best they've been since we were in the Prem!

My favourite player. Always leaves everything out on the pitch. You can't ask for more.

Letting yourself be bullied by a man half your size who's your opponent's weak link is a very strange way to try to win a move. When he's on it, he can be unplayable, but if it's not going his way, he loses heart and fight. At this point, I do not know if the good outweighs the bad. Do you...

Obscure, yet excellent, reference!

Fucking hell, is that this guy? The eight grand bloke? 🤣

Kitching's beginning to look the kind of player that we hoped he was when we signed him. I think he's been really good since coming into the side. Him and Thomas are a good partnership. We've the makings of a good team, and Lampard's got the summer now to properly mould the team to how he wants...

To be fair, he's looked an absolute player.

Everybody else was brilliant. Saka's an absolute gem.

Also, the standard of our set pieces over the two legs was utterly abysmal.

Penalties presumably. I really like him, but I wonder if it might be time to cash in. Lack of form is ok, you accept that, especially in forwards, but it's the lack of battle when things aren't going his way.

Against some extremely stiff competition, I think you might be the least intelligent person on the board.

I don't think over the season we've had close to enough to get promoted, and if we're honest, we were reliant on a season with no really quality teams outside the top three to make the play offs at all. I was pretty calm about tonight, really, but that's a sickening way to lose.
