I must be mad, but I quite enjoyed the game today.

I've certainly seen us look worse. Admittedly, Sunderland were pretty rubbish.

It was certainly exciting at times but perhaps for the wrong reason - our precarious position in the table!
The O'Neill element added some spice but heard him on 5live on the way home say that Sunderland should have scored six!
Where did he get that from?
It's just what managers do. Our manager says that we go out to win games.

They're both wrong.

We played a bit better than we have done, but once again we did'nt look scoring. Throwing Bannan on towards the end did'nt make any sense whatsoever. It was almost a 'let's take the point' type of sub.

As for MOTM, i thought Herd was great.
Felt Bannan was the wrong sub would of brought on Carruthers myself.

Heskey did ok one great move to set up Weimann ,though felt Heskey himself should have gone on towards goal.


Great minds and all that if you read my earlier post!
We could manage the team as a committee and we would never argue because we are all brilliantly like minded.
I will accept salary in beer and Twiglets if Randy is feeling the pinch!

Too true.
Just heard the McLeish interview and it's complete bollux!

A fantastic result.......For Sir Alex 2, he'll be chuffed with it.
At risk of repetition and falling foul of this site, he's a dreadful Manager who is strangling the very soul of our club.

I don't care if Faulkner approves or not, the bloke is a prick and has to go.

I start every game trying to be positive and supportive of him but he has a tendency to let me down every time!

Agreed. Thought we were lucky at times, plus seeing a successful goal line clearance for a change was a positive.

Supported the club for over 40 years, am totally bored now, prefer watching the lad play his footy on Saturday afternoons. Mcleish should be relieved of his duties tomorrow am and MacDonald and Syd take over till the end of the season. Fecking disgrace what he has done. I can understand we are not as good as a few seasons back, but cannot accept the shite football and nothing to do with the fact where the manager was before, he is just clueless

Awful game played between two poor sides.  We still look very weak defending crosses and I thought Bentdtners goal was onside - i'd have been gutted had it been our goal disallowed.

Heskey did well with Lichaj MOM but i'm afraid Albrighton just aint gonna make it.
