Rodgers. Nottingham. Hughes. Burgess. Barclay. Morgan. Phillips. McConville. Smyth. Charles. Subs:- Isherwood. Butcher. Russell. Scully. Maguire. Martin. Mansell. Good to see a striker back on the bench. |

Struggling with I follow again, can't even get a commentary, I'm not going on their live chat, life's too short for that. I'll have to rely on the text updates.

Re: Sunderland match thread.
What a difference confidence makes to a keeper which translates to the defence in front of you, 2 real chances for Stanley finely poised game come on Stanley.
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
A much better first half than we had at MK Dons!
COME ON STANLEY! |
Re: Sunderland match thread.
we aint done bad at all tonight so far.
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Notts and Harvey should have made the keeper make a save as a minimum.............
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
not a good goal to concede
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Should be saving that.

No tackles... misplacing of passes.. aimless running ! With this midfield we’ll win nothing !.. |
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Awful goalkeeping.
Feel sorry for the lad but this isn’t the keeper being talked of for a major move. |
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Am I the only one who thinks that Russell looks disinterested ?.
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Pity 2-0 is flattering for them the sad thing is we have played quite well but some big players missing especially Baxter.
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Not really a 0-2 scoreline, but we did not do enough to win.............
Too many injuries and too many passengers.............. |
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Savin is nothing like as good as he was at the start of the season, since his return it's hard to believe that he was being looked as one of the best in the league.
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
think with savin its inexperience we need an old head,for next season,
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Hard to take positives from any defeat but with a lot of second choice players in our side against on paper possibly the best side in the league we had some good individual performances, Hughes outstanding, Savin up until his mistake had done well, unlucky with the Smyth and Rodgers effort play like that Saturday and we'll beat Wigan and let's be honest most had written us off before a ball was kicked tonight.

Is that a euphemism for ‘ not fit for purpose ‘.. Never seen as many aimless passes which caused the ball to come straight back at our defenders for a long time !. Some in this team are devoid of talent and skill and will just not do . The result was inevitable. ( in my humble opinion of course ! ). :cool: |

Re: Sunderland match thread.
Not surprisingly, given the relative wealth of the clubs, there was a division’s difference between the two sides. Stanley’s defence did really well to hold them off but, after conceding what looked like a soft goal, the result was inevitable.
Could anyone please get a false positive PCR test and get a fortnight’s rest for the team? :rolleyes: |

They were better all over the pitch tonight and on the bench as well. Not surprising really given the player budgets. Don't think that Sunderland team would fair too well in the Championship......but then it will have load of money thrown at it. A real opportunity for Lee Johnson to further his carreer next season when they go up.

Re: Sunderland match thread.
I,ll just leave this here Stanley's wage bill £1490000 approximately Mageady,s salary £988,000 a year.

Re: Sunderland match thread.
When their keeper hasn't a save to make the problem lies in creativity Smyth did everything right bar hit the target Rodgers header in between the posts and it's a goal different outcome, can't keep blaming injuries but they do have an impact on any team. Morgan has been asked after jumping the league's to run midfield missing Pritchard, Conneelly, Butcher and Uwakawe big ask showed glimpses of what he can do with a couple of decent through passes and his link up with Rodgers when he broke into the box and shot again off target. So it's easy to criticize players especially those coming in but upto the gifted goal we matched Sunderland apart from working the keeper, maybe a slight change to formation going forward might help and more use of the channels.

Re: Sunderland match thread.
I only hope young Toby Savin doesn't bother visiting the forum after last nights defeat to Sunderland.
The attempts by some to blame him for the result are both unfair & ludicrous. Funny, but I always thought there were 10 other players in the team? Where were they when the goals went in, having tea-break perhaps? The first goal - a freakishly high header, would have evaded a giant octopus. On the second, he was clearly impeded by one of their players. None of our attempts were on target. Had they been, the result might have been different. Last nights result was not the fault of one individual, the reason was simple. THE BEST TEAM WON! It happens more often than you think...... Lets get used to it! |

Phillips has been poor. We can't have a squad of 25 who are all first choice league 1 players. The cost would be unaffordable, the dynamics wouldn't work and the morale would cause divisions within the squad which could undermine what ASFC is all about. |
Re: Sunderland match thread.
Phillips is a strange one youth carreer at Blackburn then Liverpool been at Norwich now at Burnley, also represented England at under 16, and 17 level plenty must see something in him another that's come into a side that isn't performing.

I'm confident majority of our '2nd string' would comfortably fill in a scenario where it's one or 2 of them. Problem we have is it's 6 players having to step in at once. |

Re: Sunderland match thread.
Toby Savin was having a great season up to the point where he was replaced by Baxter, which was inevitably going to happen soon after the latter joined us. Since then he's had virtually no proper game time, which you must need to keep sharp. And when the call came again, he had to step up and step in behind a defence which is, shall we charitably say, beginning to show the strains of a long hard season. As an ex-member of the goalkeepers' union, I have nothing but sympathy for him.

Re: Sunderland match thread.
Im on my own here but I think Accrington Stanley gave Sunderland a run for their money . We stuck to it and never gave up .I thoroughly enjoyed it and keep it up lads . You can hold your heads up high despite coming second in the game.
|
Re: Sunderland match thread.
sorry greeny but we did not have one shot on target thats not a run for their money to me. its simply down to too many injuries of our squad in my eyes.
|
You took the words right out of my mouth.....
