    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Someone else suggested Adams from Derby which I don't think us a bad shout, not sure if he'd leave Derby though

    I used to work with a Sunderland STH in Southend who was a Sanddancer who used to attend games with another Sanddancer who lived in Cambridge. I have a mackem friend from Newton Aycliffe who used to live in London & we all went to watch Sunderland play in the fog at Southend in the late 90s when...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    If we keep playing the same system then I don't think any of Simms, BTA or Wright fit as a CF. We were all excited when Grimes joined as we saw the highlights of his fantastic passing to either wide player but when teams sit deep against us he can't do that. If our tactics are changed to play...

    The morning after...

    I think our tactics need to be improved/tweaked. We are too predictable especially from corners & in open play we can be too slow in moving the ball and only pass our way forwards. I also want to see us sign a ball carrying midfielder.

    Sunderland away tickets

    We parked at b&q for game earlier this season, was a 25 minute walk to stadium, booked it through yourparkingspace. Didn't take too long to get out.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    I wouldn't mind Campbell from Sheff Utd if they go up, I don't think he will play much in PL, as he would give us a bit of aggression which our current strikers lack. I also want us to get a big, physical midfielder who can run with the ball, I watched Onana for Villa yesterday & he is exactly...

    Playoff Semi Final 1st Leg Bristol City - Sheffield Utd 08/05/25 8pm ko

    It isn't a popularity contest, if you believe that isn't a penalty then you are the clueless one 😉

    As are you and most on here seem to think the referee got it right

    Playoff Semi Final 1st Leg Bristol City - Sheffield Utd 08/05/25 8pm ko

    No it isn't, it is a pull back and then a kick of the ball. If he doesn't kick the ball it is still a penalty and a red csrd

    Playoff Semi Final 1st Leg Bristol City - Sheffield Utd 08/05/25 8pm ko

    The 1st foul is Dickie pulling him back, the fact he then kicked the ball afterwards is irrelevant

    He pulled him back before he got the ball

    Average attendances home and away

    Yes that's fair, there may have been others that we didn't sell out so I only quoted the ones I knew about

    Average attendances home and away

    There are also many occasions when we didn't sell the full away allocation, eg Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Blackburn & Preston

    Sunderland away tickets

    Between our group of around 35 there are 12-14 STHs, they certainly weren't offering that many, the distribution of any tickets we would have received could have gone to anyone of the 35

    Sunderland away tickets

    I think that the amount they get is linked to what they sponsor at the club. I was part of a supporter's club that were earlier this season discussing sponsorships & the benefits and from memory if we paid around £1500 we could get 2 away tickets for so many games.

    Greetings from New US Supporter

    I started watching American Football in late 1980s and chose Buffalo as my team, I stayed up to watch their 4 Super Bowls and was disappointed but none more so than the missed kick (Scott Norwood?) and 23-21 loss to the Giants. I seem to remember that the Bengals were divisional rivals with the...

    I remember Ickey Woods and his shuffle when he scored a TD for the Bengals 👍
