Match Day Thread Sunderland v Charlton Athletic – Saturday 23rd October 2021 - KO 15:00

Maybe they should be back on the bench - or even on the pitch...

Aston Villa U23 2-3 Sunderland U23
Will Harris’ second hat-trick of the season in the space of 10 second-half minutes helped secure a remarkable victory for Sunderland Under-23s against Aston Villa at Bodymoor Heath.

 

Highlights or you're no longer my hero

I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

 

Buzzing for tomorrow now. Come on Sunderland.

 

Great thread again RTB - thank you. It really does set up a tremendous look forward to the weekend.

I think we will win. I think it will be tight. I think it will be 1-0 or 2-1.

And that's after the first 10 minutes. For the next 80 minutes its a riot.






6 -1 guaranteed

FTM

Hawaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

 

I'd have to say, for any Charlton people looking in, we mean no disrespect.

It's just that we're starting to see what this team is capable of ...

... not for 90 minutes, in every game, but more and more often.

We're now expecting to turn up, respect the opposition and fight for the right to play our football.

Failing inept referees, and monsoons, we now believe we can beat anyone.

It's a great feeling but we never know who'll score the next goal.

 

No disrespect taken.

We have some similar feelings.... we know we can't play good football for 90 minutes either but we're hoping that with JJ in charge we'll now manage more than 15 minutes per game

We also don't know who will score our next goal, but probably not for the same reasons that you don't

i had us down for 4 mate hope one of us is right

 

with you 100% on that score both are exceptional and have not let us down

 

Cheers Smug,
There certainly are a lot that do the trips on a regular basis and many travelling the length and breadth of the country. I’m only in Lincolnshire so it’s only 2.5 hours each way.

 

Tremendous effort from the lads that mind and Harris in particular. Looks like they will be getting some more first team experience in the coming weeks with the cup competitions as well so all good.

 

That's great news and shows how much work is going on at the club.

This is just the kind of company we should be involved with, not betting firms etc, and RoRack are both local and international.

Must be great for the people who work for the company especially the MD who's a lifelong supporter.

I love what's happening to our club.

 

I was at Gillingham and one of the lads, Wakey from Hastings, had organised a private table in a 'pub' for us.

It turned out to be upstairs at the local Conservative Club so we had a relatively quiet place right next to the ground.
(He's done the same for QPR, The Sindercombe Social Club.)

There were lads there from Exeter, Bristol, London, Berkshire, etc etc and not one from the NE. At the ground I bumped into people I knew from Nottingham, Doncaster, Kent, etc etc. It was the same at Crewe. As you say there's loads who do the trips and you often see cars driving north up the motorways.
No one wants praise, they just get on with the supporting the Lads.

 

29600 tickets sold in the lower bowl!

 

**** round of golf today so i take that as an omen. 4 putts lipped out and one off the green dropped so i'm going for 4-1

Brilliant thread as per usual RTB

 

Can't wait, taking my Son & 2 grandson's, I'm going for a comfortable 2 - 0.
