You've totaly missed the point here.
It's not the delay in the kick off that pissed Sunderland off, it's the fact that the other final scores were displayed on the scoreboard while our game was still in play, which allowed us and Bristol City to play out the last 15 minutes or so in a non competitive way.
If either of the teams had scored in the final 15 minutes, then Sunderland would have survived.
Either way, if you blame your club's outcome on the last 15 mins of the final game of the season then perhaps you haven't given too much thought to how your team played over the 4000 minutes up to that point. (If it was anythig like last might, I'd stay silent )
I can see how you might be a bit pissed for an afternoon, whereas the 40 years of hurt bit is just laughable.
Edit: Given, also, that they simply could have relayed the message from the touchlines, I imagine Jimmy's actions were more geared towards the spectators. The use of display is this matter is really a bit of a red herring.
