    Sunderland fan in peace. Good luck for the match and rest of the season. Lived down in west London years now so look out for your results due to so many R’s mates

    Got to a few of your games when not able to get up north for Sunderland, although didn’t bring your lads much luck. Better I stay away. Although did gate crash a promotion street party about a decade ago <laugh>

    That's why they are cheap. Considering we were out of FFP penalty I'm suprised we are not actually competing in the transfer market - we only seem to go for kids for the future and injured crocks at the moment. I dare say the financial implications of a whole season without gate receipts and, I presume, reduced TV revenue has something to do with the club's financial caution at the moment. I hope the purse strings will be loosened soon and we can actually start to haggle for players who are fit and raring to go.

    I was at that one. It was the Saturday before Christmas, grim. Washington running around like a headless chicken up front on his own with not a sniff at goal. Izzy Brown ran at us from the half way line and weaved his way through our defence to score. He also did the same later that season at home to Huddersfield where he went on loan from Chelsea.

    I thought the same. I thought it was a pretty basic requirement these days.

    You'd have thought with a brand new stadium they'd have installed that, tightwads...

    Interesting for the Brentford game though, we will have had 11 days to prepare whilst Brentford have played 2 games in that time

    Hope they can find a date after the tight schedule coming up, like mid April inbetween Boro and SW.

    Gutted it’s postponed but at least he’s got extra time to get the new boys well prepared for a crazy fixture schedule.
    Agreed that all pitches at this level should have a heating system especially up north.

    I see Sheffield weds home game off too must be pretty bad around south yorkshire, we will have 2 games in hand on most teams, can't work out if that's a good thing

    Agree sadly. I was hoping we might actually give the Bees a reasonable game this time around. I think the only way that's going to happen is if we abduct Ivan Toney!

    On the good front... Dykes, De Wisj and Field might be fit for the match

    Good point. I Wisj that Fielding Dykes would give us a chance against Brentford too though.
