Match date: Tuesday 24 September 2013. Final Score: Sunderland 2 – 0 Peterborough Reflection… Guided successfully through to the next round by Interim head coach Kevin Ball against a decent opponent. Goals from Emanuele Giaccherini and substitute Valentin Roberge secured the victory. No big news or talking points today, just a fairly comfortable and expected result […]
Gutted, simply gutted… Paolo Di Canio has not been given a chance of succeeding here. Five games in – are you having a laugh?!? *shakes head* Knee-jerk reaction… calling for his head after such a short time? We as a club should be supporting the fella at such a time, not chastising him… Bitterly disappointed… […]
Match date: Saturday 21 September 2013. Final Score: West Brom 3 – 0 Sunderland Reflection… First off I personally hope that he sticks with it and turns things around, however after witnessing Paolo’s interaction with the away faithful at the conclusion of the game today, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if he walks away before […]
Match date: Saturday 14 September 2013. Final Score: Sunderland 1 – 3 Arsenal Reflection… I will make this quick. With arguably our best player, Stephane Sessegnon, leaving the club for West Brom I certainly wasn’t looking forward to the game. With Jozy Altidore and Stephen Fletcher starting the game up front together however, I watched […]
Match date: Saturday 31 August 2013. Final Score: Palace 3 – 1 Sunderland Reflection…. Disappointed is not the word… probably gutted. Simply not good enough I’m afraid. The only positive is the return of Fletcher. I’m not going to join the band of ‘sack him now’ folk just yet as to be fair it’s still […]
Match date: Tuesday 27 August 2013. Final Score: Sunderland 4 – 2 Milton Keynes Dons Reflection…. Quite a forgettable game really. Not really a performance of any satisfaction by any means, but a bit of a barnstorming end to the game kept us happy (ish). One thing is for sure: It’s going to be a […]
Match date: Saturday 24 August 2013. Final Score: Southampton 1 – 1 Sunderland Reflection…. Disappointed by a late Southampton equaliser which sadly cancelled out Giaccherini’s opening goal for Sunderland. Plenty of chances – particularly in the second-half, but I suppose we should be happy with a point away from home. Chris
Match date: Saturday 17 August 2013. Final Score: Sunderland 0 – 1 Fulham Reflection…. Opening day of the season, and as always, optimistic for the season ahead. We were comfortably in control for long spells and created a number of chances, only to frustratingly lose the game to header which match statistics will show as being […]
