    2017/18 Jordan Pickford

    How has Pickford been performing for you recently? I try to take a keen interest, but because of Sunderland's season, I've not been watching much Premiership the last few weeks, other than MOTD! Is he finishing the season strong?

    Great post mate. You sound very much like me, very similar - just different ages. I bet your son was a massive, positive influence on your life eh? 22 days? Well done! Mean that! Speaking to good people like you gives me hope. I must admit, I was in a really, really bad place Saturday...

    Thanks mate, really appreciate that post. I'll try and chat with my Dad, it's just that 'How on earth do I word this to him?' problem. I liked your other post aswel (like is probably the wrong word) when you spoke about your anxiety worries, about your worry that your wife having a heart attack...

    Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

    Really struggling tonight. I used to go out every Saturday since I was 18 till 24. Haven't been out for a night out for 2+ years now. Obviously, my choice but I associated going out with drugs, alcohol and ultimately - fights. When I'm dunk and have cash on me I make awful decisions. So, decided...

    January 2018 transfer window thread.

    Take your point mate. It pains me to say it but Newcastle are massively underachieving too. I mean come no disrepect to these teams, but we're much bigger than Burnley, Huddersfield, Brighton, Swansea etc. I honestly think both Sunderland & Newcastle should/could be finishing top-10 as a...

    January 2018 transfer window thread.

    No, I've already conceded to you (for weeks) that £££ wise, we're in trouble. No denying that at all, that's why the 30m Pickford money you paid wasn't reinvested in the team, it simply went towards our debt which is rumoured to be at about 200m. What I've told you consistently, is that as bad...

    January 2018 transfer window thread.

    It's a mutual agreement @orly. He knows, he has no future at Sunderland, we're paying him 60k a week to basically spend maybe 70% of his time in the treatment room. We simply can't justify that amount, considering our terrible financial situation. This is best for both parties. We don't know the...

    Ross Barkley - Thanks, and goodbye.

    Read the opening post fully, whilst I respect your 'Put it to bed and be grateful we had him' argument, I think you're selling your fellow fans short. It's not like Barkey has earned his respect & achievements. I must reiterate, you'll know more than me, as I've not watched him anywhere near as...

    2017/18 Jordan Pickford

    With Pickford, his biggest weakness is crossing. Sometimes, he over-commits and tries to come out for crosses he shouldn't, then, crosses he should come out for he'll stop on his line. He sometimes lacks judgement in that sense. Luckily, it's something which can be rectified with the right...

    2017/18 Ross Barkley

    Fair enough, I know what you mean. Knowing Football, It's probably already been sorted weeks ago and is just being kept from the public domain. If he goes to a 'top club' (hate that expression but you know what I mean) he may find that grass isn't always greener etc. I know from watching him...

    2017/18 Ross Barkley

    Thanks for explaining that mate. It's a bizarre situation like you say which needs to be rectified sooner rather than later. I could be wrong but I remember last season (or maybe the season before) Match of the Day were talking about him and his 'Chances created' ratio was top of the entire...

    2017/18 Ross Barkley

    Sorry for my ignorance on this. What's going on with this guy? I know Chelsea went in for him and he's been frozen out the team since. Is he just trying to wait out his contract? If so, It's a slap in the face to the club. Or, is he injured? There's a very talented player with the ability to...

    Sam Allardyce

    I posted this when he was appointed. So far, he's done exactly what I said. You've had some great results (like midweek when Rooney got a hatrick), you're not leaking 2/3 goals per match anymore. Your tactics on Sunday have been described by some as "dull" "boring", Liverpool fans say...

    Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Sunday 10th December

    I know what you're saying. Possibly a mentality thing when you play here. You drop further and further back. What winds me up as a neutral is you're giving them so much respect. They're not Man City or PSG. They've got an excellent front 3 but defensively are vulerable. Just need to get at...

    Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Sunday 10th December

    I know they've been sniffing for it but they're so lucky to get a goal at that time. Poor defending too. Really wanted Everton to have a pop at them but Sam has set you up far too defensive. If they score another I'm turning it off. Can't be doing with the Liverpool love-in. You've absolutely...

    Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Sunday 10th December

    Really hope you end the recent misery v Liverpool and end the run in style. So many games I've watched this fixture, Liverpool score early and ease to victory. Or, your players just bottle it. I'd love to see you get the first from a set piece and then park the bus! Just to wind the Liverpool...
