Xela Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 The fans don't seem keen on Ross as manager. Too negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant help but feel they **** this up Drew too mamy times They're like Man. City of the 90s. That said league 1 next season shouldn't be as hard, you've already got Bolton coming down on -10 so they'll be nowhere near promotion race. Bury aren't paying the bills either. Sunderland need to hold things together and obviously go for automatic this time. Seems many of their players have big fitness issues, McGeady and Grigg must be on about 40k a week between them and neither started the play offs as they aren't fit. Comms also said Cattermole has been playing with a hip problem for four years! Need to get that all sorted but like us in the championship Sunderland at a lower level is still a huge draw so they won't struggle to attract players.

Rugeley Villa Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Sunderland are shite. I knew they wouldn’t go up. Even if they did they would struggle in the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Should have gone top 2 quite easily with that budget and that playing staff. For me, this is worse than the two relegations. You have to be seriously shite to be a club that size and not get out of league one. The calibre of player is horrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The change of ownership very much stopped the rot imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanAVFC Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Too many draws. Ross seems quite defensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure I remember hearing that their 0-0 draw away at Barnsley in March was the first time Sunderland had failed to score in a league game this season (they only failed once after too, in a 0-0 draw against Portsmouth to get to Wembley). That means that they've had 18 league score draws this season and, at the same time, are the 3rd highest scorers in the league. If that's being defensive then they're doing it all wrong.

The_Rev Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Sunderland were the third highest scorers in the division with 80 goals. They had the fourth best defence and the third highest goal difference. It's quite a puzzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkLillis Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Have say I would like them to get it right.They have a long suffering fan base (3 of which I had a chat with at a pub in Westminster before Monday’s game - they were down in the dumps!) They suffer like I can imagine us suffering I always count Villas blessings when I see Sunderlands struggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
