Any win over the Mackems is a good ‘un, I wonder what excuses it’ll be this time?

Great win, and the march continues. PUSB. ⚽️

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Yes!!!!!!!

 

[Sick Boy]

Very good win against a decent side.

 

[fernandopartridge]

It's a good deserved win, weren't great second half but had enough chances to win comfortably. Second goal was excellent.

 

[djr8369]

Norton Cuffy battling to the last seconds he had a good game

Grew into it

 

[steve101]

Shame about the goal conceded but otherwise a great performance from back to front. Thought Eccles gave a solid mature performance.

 

[Paxman II]

Commentator sugesting Sunderland is a big deal in the championship? Sunderland have just come up, & admittedly playing above themselves but come on! We looked the far better side and carried a threat all game.

He did really well for the second goal too

They seem a little salty - Coventry City

Brilliant second goal. Outrageous pass by Hamer, great cross by Godden and Gyokeres finishes it off well.

Diallo shouldn't be allowed to play at this level.

 

[covcity4life]

Get in! Big win

Gyok is just too good for this league. Enjoy him whilst we can. We are playing to keep him really right now. Need to get to prem with him!

Great goal and I was impressed we made so many chances first half. Hope to see more attacking intent in future games.

I know many still not sold on RNC but for me he's improving all the time and today was his best game yet. He's defending better. Winning physical battles and can stride forward with the ball. Definitely not a pointless loan as he was branded imo

Think same goes for JWE. Will need a run of games before can judge him. Did well at lwb I thought at the end.

We missed Palmer second half. We will need godden and gyok to be perfect partnership if Palmer is out for a length of time I feel.

Eccles did alright but I hope sheaf is back soon.

Shame to lose clean sheet but hopefully it serves to keep us on our toes.

3 in a row. Into top top 10. 2pts off playoffs. More challenges await .it won't be easy but we are in with a chance!

Pusb

 

[Terry_dactyl]

Great win. Hamer doing his best to keep me a nervous wreck!

 

[Seymour_East]

Not brilliant second half but resilient. Good win and getting closer to playoff

 

[steve101]

Hope Palmer isn't out for long. He has developed a great understanding with Gyokeres

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Hamers defensive ability has really shone through the last few games. Effort is insane and he’s everywhere

He helps Eccles and becomes a better player but did cause the goal

 

[Deleted member 9744]

Really good defending by Norton-Cuffy second half. What was Hamer doing for their goal though?

Excellent second half from Eccles.

 

[Tommo1993]

Not convincing or comfortable by any stretch, but I’ll take it.

 

[skyblu3sk]

Fuck yes! Take that. Can see why Sunderland are up there but for lots of possession not much cutting through us

 

[PVA]

Hope Palmer isn't out for long. He has developed a great understanding with Gyokeres

Hopefully it was a dead leg rather than a muscle strain/pull.

They'll be crying in the streets of Sunderland tonight!

 

[skyblueinBaku]

Great win, but it’s a pity about the Mackem’s consolation goal. Still, they get to go home empty handed (again)..

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Really good defending by Norton-Cuffy second half. What was Hamer doing for their goal though?

Excellent second half from Eccles.

Should have just booted it into the stands. Diallo far too good a player for this league

 

[The CableGuy]

So street-wise. Possession stats for the opposition don't matter when we can just flick a switch and hurt them with pace and movement.

As for the defence -

BBC Sport:

However, there are so many Sky Blues shirts in the frame on each occasion, there just isn't the space.

They defend as such a unit, with genuine zeal.

 

[steve101]

Hope so but didn't look that way

 

[Terry_dactyl]

They'll be crying in the streets of Sunderland tonight!

Aren’t they always?

 

[Ian1779]

Diallo is a player we should try and get in on loan in future seasons.

 

[Finham]

@Greggs sign up mate and ask them what that makes them if they just lost to a shit club?

 

[alexccfc99]

Fucking brilliant - I love beating them arrogant bastards, hope they have a shit trip home and Newcastle win tomorrow to compound their misery - Get in!!!!!!

 

[ProfessorbyGrace]

Makes the victory even sweeter.

Maybe someone should remind them they’ll never be as big as Newcastle.

 

[hill83]

Never in doubt

 

[TomRad85]

Top 3 is all sorted out, anyone up to Blackburn in 4th is catchable.

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

Interestingly that’s our first win when we’ve conceded a goal

 

[fatso]

That should make us safe at least

 

[Hobo]

Well maybe he should have at least tried to save it, then? Team goal!

It was perfectly bent in. He had no chance
