and I think in general its not just our poor play but the timewasting, falling, diving, cheating, refereeing and general lack of attacking instinct that all teams have these days.
Its been so hard watching us for years now, will we ever enjoy watching football again? |  |

I enjoy the pre match drink , chat and banter , then the first 10/15 mins of match until the reality kicks in that we aren’t really that good any more ..... ! |  | | |

League 1 is a real sh*thouse of a division, nearly every team plays to the dark arts as there is a lack of quality in general and the refs are weak as.
I'm not enjoying this division at all, but looks like I'll have to get used to it. |  |

Saw that Robinson apologised for "cheating" Saturday.
Don't think I've seen it mentioned but I think also that Garbutt was v lucky to get away with his early foul, which looked high up the oppo's leg after he mis-controlled the ball.
No card. |  |

Yeah, that was a bad tackle - a nailed on yellow and could have been worse.
We seem such an unstreetwise team, and very naive. I do wonder what we do in training with regards to match situations (and shape) etc | |

I think the poor organisation at the back has been a big issue for a long time. Chambers isn't the player he used to be but you would have hoped he could be a leader & an organiser of a back 3 including a lower league journeyman & a promising young player. It's scary to think what me might need to be truly competitive next season in terms of recruitment. |  |

You can't just organise on the day effectively against well drilled teams, players need to know their roles and learn them all week, all season so it is natural
Was reading about Pep and Klopp, they have such structred teams, and such structured attacks (as well as more intelligent footballers) that why we think we can get away with it is beyond me
Some managers like Hodgson and Oulis go to absolute extremes, but we seem to be the other way | |

I quite enjoyed the first half on Saturday.
I've said all season though, our discipline (in every respect) is poor. Not surprising given the attitude on the touchline of the manager and his staff. | | | |

Indeed. I had no idea L1 relied so much on gamesmanship.
“Sh*thouse of a division” is bang on.
Can see why Sunderland are still here, after the initial culture shock and then stark realisation.
Our turn now. |  |
