he's

I'm glad you posted this. I thought that too, but I'm such a useless analyst of the game I thought I'd get laughed out of town on here if I mentioned it!

Agreed 100% @glasshalffull my hope is that as we progress up the pyramid the club will experience the same groundswell of excitement that we enjoyed under MO’N. The ground will be full most weeks in The Championship, local media will engage more fully, funds will improve the match day experience and such minor irritants/ excuses as road access etc become a thing of the past.

I for one am very excited by our evolution since the New Year and really looking forward to what the future holds for this great club.

COYB’s!

I always liked the old West Ham song:

'His name is Luděk Mikloško

He comes from near Moscow

He plays in goal for West Ham'

Ludek's birthplace of Prostějov in the Czech Republic is a 1,081 mile drive to Moscow. It's 947 miles from the old Boleyn Ground.

One of the biggest barriers to us emulating a club like Bournemouth is the mystifying negativity of some supporters and the general apathy of the local population towards the club. Believe me, in the wider football community Wanderers are more highly regarded as a well run and progressive club than they are on their own doorstep.

Didn’t we sign George when Bishop was injured leaving us with one senior keeper?

The ginger fella is a character from 90’s Saturday night comedy “juggernaut” Brian Conley.

He would hit the squirrel thing with a bat and then shout “it’s a puppet”’when people showed sympathy for it.

@TheAndyGrahamFanClub agreed we look so much better when our midfield asserts itself & we pass the ball around the press.

We do not seem to use our wide players wide enough to stretch the opposition to create central spaces for the likes of Humphreys & Scowen or even Kone to exploit, perhaps Barry will give us that immediately, with MD working to get more of that into Freds game especially.

There is nothing wrong with long balls if we are good enough to get them to one of our players 90%+ of the time, sadly too often what we actually resort to is hit & hope...which just means the ball comes straight back at us.

Trevor there is as much out there praising his abilities as there is saying he is a wrongun . Your type of chosen source of information is notiorious sort of venue for presenting a nagative picture in these situations . There is a generally a strong belief on the Sunderland forums and amonst pundits that his last stint as caretaker was decimated with injuries , that he inherited a down beaten squad , and that it was the youngest squad in the championship. There were several games where he had to rely on 18 and 19 year olds on the bench such was the injury crisis .

I might suggest you do some further research before suggesting he is less useful to us than the late Kenneth . You may then come to the fore with a more balanced opinion .

Lol made me chuckle.
