Sam3773 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I might be being stupid (usually), but how does Sunderland beating Leicester relegate us? They'll be on 30 points, which we can still achieve.

PompeyVillan Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I'm starting to feel, with a huge amount of retrospective that it was a mistake to sack Sherwood. At the time it made sense, he was a bad fit, however I can't help think that the upheaval hasn't helped the team at all. As bad as we were playing, I think it's worse now. And the straw that broke the camels back, the Leicester game wasn't such a travesty after all, with hindsight. Garde was the wrong man for the time and his record was unforgivably bad. That's not to say it was entirely his fault though. Again, hindsight. But that's my thoughts. Next manager. Moyes, give him what he wants. Let him change everything at the club. He's got a good record in the transfer market and will make us organised and hard to beat. I think he'll get us promoted and set us up as a midtable PL team. Like we were before. That would be lovely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of my man utd mates have said anything along the lines of "can't wait until next week" etc. I think the way it's gone is almost like the relegation confirmation has been "spread" across the two weeks. Any bragging rights are pretty diluted I would think, even to the most plastic of fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be lovely. Sherwood screwed up so many winnable home games early on though....Sunderland, West Brom, Stoke, Swansea, 1 point from that lot. Edit: I do think we'd have picked up a bit earlier than under Garde, maybe won a game or two over xmas but it would've still been a massive task and one beyond him.

Dr_Pangloss Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Nothing more to say, we are gutless disgrace, a pathetic excuse for a football team, I wish nothing but bad things for pretty much everyone involved. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briny_ear Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 18 minutes ago, Zatman said: sunderland play norwich next weekend Oh, well spotted. Maths prize for Zatman! I've got a feeling however that Sunderland winning against Leicester is about as remote a possibility as us ever winning another match this season, so I suspect the agony will be drawn out until next weekend. It'll be in our own hands then - a loss or draw against the Mancies will relegate us without having to rely on any other team's results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep. I wouldn't blame the fans if they pelted the players with shit at the next home game, as that is what they have served up all season. I'd gladly sack the lot of the useless money grabbing bottle jobs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
