Sunderland (A) Match Thread

[Dr The Singh]

Ref is showing his inexperience and is basically crap

[bluefox1]

What is it with danish keepers that just pass the ball out 4 a throw.

[NewburyFox]

We’re not playing with any authority like we have done at our best. We miss Vestergaard but not having Ricardo is a huge blow. Hamza is so incredibly passive on the ball and so we’re not able to play through the lines at all. 

[foxfanazer]

Appalling referee yet again 

[coolhandfox]

Honestly mentality of the manager is starting to become a worry.

 

You can't just go ahead then play within yourself, do that when you are 2 or 3 up.

 

[Groby_Blue]

Should have been game over by half time. 

[Muzzy_no7]

Sunderland are getting this spot on tbf. 
 

Get to 65-70 mins , bring on Styles, Ba and Burstow and have a go. 
 

We’ve stopped playing. 

[bmt]

This ref sucks

[Blanchflower78]

Opposition despite being poor always in the game with us. 

[Staff]

We only get shit refs 

[ARTY_FOX]

Weird because the refs had a couple games at the kp he's been really good in. 

[martyn]

2 bang average sides here.

 

Want Winks and KDH to stamp some authority into the midfield. Winks has been scarred by that Watford goal, everything is so so safe.

[jmono84]

What is with these refs! He’s let them off about 4 times in that half, that’s 4 potential attacks for us from very good positions! Soft as shit refs every fvckint week!

[Bourbon Fox]

Just now, The Doctor said:

this refs a bit shit, basically a non contact sport with the "fouls" he's giving. Not the whole reason why this game has gone turgid but it doesn't help

Cost us 2 clear goalscoring opportunities 

[KingsX]

[trugerkem]

The ref is honking … every challenge is a foul … memorable first 13 minutes the rest was diabolical .. fair play the support in the ground 👏 

[SouthStandUpperTier]

Tough watch but important thing is that we're winning.

[Out Foxed]

ref is soft as shite

[Dahnsouff]

We dropped off / they stepped up a bit, after the goal, but the story of that half was the Homer with the whistle

[Simonb]

Utterly garbage. Should've been out of site.. scored and then stopped playing 

 

Enzo wake these lads up. Get a 2nd and then they can 'preserve energy' not that they've used any up

[StanSP]

Hope we don't rue sitting on a 1-0 lead. 

 

Reminds me of the Sheff Weds away game where it was the same scoreline and we spurned loads of chances and conceded last minute. Have to kill these teams off.

[onekeithweller]

Can refs be subbed?

[OwnGoal]

How is this ref getting a Premiere League gig at the weekend?  

[Blarmy]

I’m watching on my phone can’t see details but it seems every time there’s a scrap for the ball, and we come away with the ball, they get a free kick?

[lcfcdamo]

I cant actually believe this ref someone can literally breathe on someone and its a foul to him
