Roy's View From... View From Sunderland

[CPB]

For me we deserved the win. We we the better team 1st half and fact we were the better team until we went 2-1 up then we dropped deeper. Some of their fans can see that some cannot.

This comment though......

“If they go up, I think they’ll get about 15 points over the season, unless they get bought up by the Saudis.”

Erm we are owned by a Saudi, just he ain't super rich and seems desperate to sell.

The thing is, earlier in the season we were putting teams to the sword 20/25 minutes in, we are currently grinding some results out whilst looking scared to death and tense as anything.

 

[Rusty view]

Those comments after Saturdays performance.

Football eh? Oooh jumpers as goal posts...

 

[SwissBlade]

Theyre right about our time wasting and partially right about the officials. But the officials added 7 mins on because of our time wasting, so well done for that.

Some terrible decisions - Jebbison getting scythed down, Norwoods tackle and the offside goal. Thought the ref seemed on our side more than theirs but they lacked composure with several of their players trying to get into the ref.

Back to a well organised, professional display.

 

[SirNibletsO'Korne]

Cheers Roy. They start off so well, but then the blubbering starts. Bless...
Fuck em. That's three desperately needed points that I really wasn't sure we'd get.
Well happy this morning!

 

[71Blade]

I'm amazed the game ended 11 Vs 11 at half time I was certain there would be a red or 2 in the 2nd half

 

[Stretch]

Reading that first set of positive comments I am thinking to myself, oh dear this won't go down well with our resident moaners.

Then I got to the lower portion "they're shit" "nothing special" "down by Christmas" blah blah blah... that's more like it.

 

[metalblade]

“Sheff utd were the better team, but it makes it harder when the officials are massaging the game”
Gi'oer mate all the yellows we got for feck all and your player gets away with a career threatening tackle on Jebbo, really?

Comments start off good but get more salty as you read down the page, not a happy bunch are they? Anyway fuck em moaning the goal was offside when one of their players is ragging Egan's shirt off his back so he can't get to the ball, serves em right no one got a touch on it, if you disallow the goal you have to award a penalty.
Cheers Roygbiv

Did you take those comments from 2 different forums?

1st 50% - the SAFC, level-headed bunch.
2nd 50% - the SAFC, post-defeat bed wetters (akin to the S24SU lot).

 

[corner_flag]

I rarely see such flattering descriptions of our team on this forum as came from those first few posters.
Takes fresh eyes, I suppose to see the positives. We seem only to notice the mistakes

Interesting how many opposition fans rate Berge when many on here don’t. Does it have something to do with his transfer fee ?!!!

 

[Rochdaleblade]

Sunderland did look like a bunch of school boys in terms of physicality. 9 stone wet through most of em. What are they feeding em up there?

They still seemed to win the first header at every corner though.

 

[Boxer Blade]

They have a go at the officials for all sorts of incidents that they say went against them but they don't mention the fact they should have been down to ten men, funny that.

"“Didn’t think we deserved to lose, 1st 20 mins they were well on top and we rode our luck, after that it was fairly even, we could of easily had a pen for handball, we then typically give away a shite goal on HT, 2nd half we concede from a goal that should have been given offside.”!

So it was even, apart from 20 mins when we were well on top - sounds to me like a game that, on balance, was ours and we deserved to win.

You don`t not deserve to win simply because you don`t score in your dominating periods and then do score in the periods where its more even...

 

[Speedracer]

Thanks Roy.

A proper "game of two halves" View From, first lot was our most fervent fan club & the second lot from the pigs forum judging from the bollocks being spouted!

Great win, whatever the minutiae of the games talking points we were clearly the better side & deserved the win, which I believe we would have got even if Doyle's goal had been ruled out.

 

[Argentinemanager]

Cheers roy , very balanced comments to start with got shit and finished with someone off here

 

[INTAKE BLADE]

Cheers Roy
A mixed bag of reviews there
For what its worth I fancy Sunderland to kick on next season.

 

[borbokis]

2nd goal probably should have been given offside, Berge was clearly going for the ball and probably put the keeper off. I really don't see what issue they have with the 1st goal though?

 

[Bladesthorpe]

Back down with 15 pts maybe but with 150 million in the sky rocket.

 

[Fatlad666]

Morning Roygbiv thank you once again sir

They missed the bit where he said, "I'm not complaining," or words to that effect. After doing nothing but complain.

 

[Grecian2000]

Think we should announce that the club is awarding the second goal to Sander Berge as he says he definitely got a touch on it.
Then we can have a third "view from" and see what they think of that!

 

[MJM]

A bonus here. Some brilliant comments on the Boro forum. I particularly love the "should have done a Bielsa" and "horrible team" comments

Sunderland vs Sheffield United

Not watching this one. Looked at the half time scores and stats. Not sure there will be any more goals. So, if there is, it's likely to be the winner.

Think I actually enjoyed this more

Cheers, Woy!

 

[BiggerBladeThanThou]

They still seemed to win the first header at every corner though.

That’s because of the corner not beating first or second man.

 

[Houston_Blade]

Theyre right about our time wasting and partially right about the officials. But the officials added 7 mins on because of our time wasting, so well done for that.

I'd be happy with refs adding on time for us timewasting if they also did the same when other teams do it against us. 5 mins on Saturday was a joke, 7 mins last night was about spot on.

Not that we'd have scored on Saturday with any amount of additional time but the point still stands.

Me too. Stuck a tenner on it.

Yeah i think it's a great thing if they apply it properly

The comment about Sunderland deserving the win and us somehow being a team full of cheats always getting favourable decisions confirms the air pollution in that part of the world really does harm brain function.

 

[KeyffSmyff]

Ok if we don't get the second goal for offside do we get a pen for holding Robbo back?
