I watched it last week. Enjoyable enough alright. Few observations
The amount of absolute cretins following soccer in the UK is unreal. 25 mins chanting Sunderland til I die, concede a goal then 25 mins chanting Grayson out, concede another and spend rest of game screaming blue murder at the dugout
Why the fuck do fellas take their shirt off at matches. Ties into point 1 above I suppose. Cretins.
Gibson is an unbelievable cunt.
McGeady is not to be trusted. He claimed at one stage hed never played 4 3 3 and didnt know what his role should be in that system. Liardy cunt. He chipped in with his share of goals alright tbf
The game is gone when you are stuck with the likes of Rodwell and fuck all you can do about it.
They were stuck with him by their own doing. Its nothing to do with the game being gone. If you make bad decisions in recruitment you canāt complain when youāre put in a shit position
85 lost their jobs at SAFC when they were relegated from the premier league. They did not have the luxury of blaming a bad recruitment policy to justify not making a sacrifice for the good of all. Iām sure if they were asked to do 10% more for a bit less then they would do it. Rodwell didnāt even give SAFC the steam of his pissā¦
Jonny Williams seems like the nicest guy in football. Sheasy also seems a decent bloke. In fairness most of the people featured seem likeable (the chef, the taxi driver fan etc) and you find yourself rooting for them.
that Martin Bain comes across as a bit oily. Maybe itās his Hun background that had me suspicious of him.
Chris Coleman has a lovely missus.
those nights when the first team and manager show up in local pubs for a Q & A session are a mixture of cringe and hilarious.
berating the manager, the players, the board, not turning up to matches so empty seats galore, walking out of games with half an hour left and turning on all concerned when anything goes wrong but still considering themselves the best fans in the world.
Sunderland have had their fair share of terrible keepers.
Sunderland is meant to be much grimmer than Newcastle which is fair going. Think I said it on here already but I couldnāt get over how haphazard their recruitment policy was. They wouldnāt sign one lad because the assistant manager went to game and he was wearing gloves Is it any wonder they sank like a stone ffs. They bought another lad because someone offered him to them. I mean is that the level of due diligence that goes into these million pound deals
