Think it is just bad luck really. Typical that it has come at a time when there are so many matches in such a short period. JDS has not helped getting suspended for three games. Think other teams will get the flu problem sooner or later, particularly when their kids go back to school, which is...

It's the Oscar Wilde thing. The worst thing than being talked about, is not being talked about. Or something like that.

I think you are being unfair to Sheaf. Some players suddenly become injury prone at times during their career and I believe Sheaf falls into that category. Gareth Bale is a classic example of a player where his injury problems were predicted early in his career, due to an unusual running style...

I gather they bought a few players at £8 million or over. Compared with our recruitment, looks like we have spent more wisely, although I get it Prem clubs are charged double.

And so many times this season ball was going in anyway when the ball was touched in, or he hits the post or a defender and we score.

I was worried when we appointed Lampard, as there have been a lot of good players who have not done brilliantly at management. Rooney and Gerrard were equivalent players and struggled. I don't count Rangers or Celtic as a true test, as realistically most managers should do well there. I know...

Well the players have ice baths.

Didn't our fans sing a similar song to the Stoke player. You're just a shit Sakamoto.

Cantona anyone?

Which players for us are going to get suspended then for brawling? Millwall v Bristol will set the precedent. Edwards I'm sure will be banished to the stands.

Earlier it was the shits, looks like the flu this time. Just got to hope our opponents over Christmas are in the same boat.

Think Brau was great when he came on but, you really cannot judge a player on a short sub appearance for a full start. Our coaches will know if he is ready.

Remember how at the start of the season we had to get rid of Wilson, JDS, Bidders, Eccles, Lati, Allan and Simms because they were simply not good enough. Wilson is the only one with no game time. You always need a squad. I don't get carried away, because they have to do it week in week out, but...

Pretty sure they wont sell him. Southampton used to be the example of what a well run club looked like. Someone said their squad cost £90 million? Compare that with our 2, 3 or 4 million players. No contest. Recruitment is really important now. Think that is why Sunderland are prospering.

Both MVE and Torp were coughing when they came off.

Sorry mate, the mullet has now passed. The haircut now is called the Mod, although it looks nothing like a mod haircut of yesteryear. Shaved sides has left the building. Footballers will catch on soon.

That is bollocks. 90%? no way is that accurate, just some online bullshit. It is a surprisingly high number considering their profession and experiences but interestingly the numbers are not often published. Flu kills people, as does Covid. The "Spanish" Flu epidemic killed millions, peculiarly...

Thought it was worryingly downbeat.

Completely agree. Did the same with Grimes and MVE. Ref was shit.

Hellberg was in demand quite a bit. Swansea for sure. Pretty sure he will take Boro up.
