[David O'Day]

Not sure I buy the "sacked because there is a fans forum tomorrow". They've lost I think 8 of the last 10.That gets managers sacked these days.

Sunderland are a very good team on paper and are certainly more entertaining to watch than Burnley and Blunts. Not sure I could handle them finally beating us and it being a play off game.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Sunderland are quality

Whoever finishes 5th and 6th in this year's play offs are on a hiding to nothing against any if the current top 4

I've always thought that too. Rather have a ticket for the lottery than not though.

Would genuinely applaud him getting an ACL, horrible little rat

 

[ovduk78]

Leeds look clueless trying to get through Sunderland's 2 lines of 4

 

[Tommo1993]

I would rather them finish 3rd than Burnley (provided we finish 6th) to be honest

Wouldn’t mind Burnley failing. On account of always being one of the most boring clubs in world football.

Wish we'd shown a little less respect and a bit more bravery and guile against Leeds. It was the same vs Man Utd last season. Once we we got over the mental block and said "well fuck it and let's go for it" we got level. Shame they stole it from us.

I wouldn’t mind if they finished second behind Leeds. Our record against them is pretty woeful.

Not so easy for Leeds when the opposition don't put the ball in the net for them

 

[Merseyskyblue]

Sunderland have defended extremely well so far, doing a much better job at crowding Leeds out in midfield

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Officials missing a clear foul by Struijk before the goal

 

[Tommo1993]

Killer ball in. Absolute nightmare to defend

 

[wingy]

Not sure if it went in off the second striker?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Dirty twat O'Nien

Get that on their forum .

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Sunderland are a bloody good team

Too stoned to be arsed to sign up. Fully support anyone that can be arsed to do what I can't be arsed to do, though.

 

[lifeskyblue]

Agree. Would be a tough task to beat them in either the playoff semis or final. But if any team can it’s probably us as we their bogey team

 

[fernandopartridge]

He's only done it because he didn't want to face the forum they got tomorrow, alot of fans want to vent their frustration and now because of that it's been cancelled, clearly didn't want to face the wrath of the fans

He was doing reasonably ok, they've essentially had to cut their wage bill year on year yet still have expectations as high as ever. That said, their most recent performance against us was easily the worst I've ever seen them against us.

 

[Evo1883]

Leeds dominated the game tbh , deserved winners

 

[fernandopartridge]

Sunderland will not get promoted imo, not going to get an automatic spot and will get done in the play offs

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Would be a massive confidence/psychological boost for us if we can beat Burnley and Sunderland at home in the coming weeks. Plus it would help us cement a place in the playoffs.

They had a very strong start but over the last 25 games they've only taken 5 more points than us

I'd fancy us against them tbh

Isidor looks superb tbf

 

[fernandopartridge]

Under no illusions mind, we need to up our performance levels a good bit to beat the likes of Sunderland and Burnley.

 

[ovduk78]

As soon as Sunderland conceded there was only going to be 1 winner. They did the same against us and we really could have beaten them. We were talking to 1 of their fans on the way back to the car and he said when we scored the 1st he knew we'd get an equaliser, I don't know if it's happened to them a lot this season

Psychological effect of a bogey side. We knew Sunderland don't beat us and they knew too.

Similar to Swansea comeback from 3-0 and the injury time equaliser game. They had no fight for it last game though.

Preston is going to be very interesting on Sat!

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Dull as dishwater watching Preston.

Could be watching Celtic.

Although shlupp ending up in the champions League means there was probably no real chance he was coming to us
