[Football] Sunderland v Sheffield Wednesday playoff first leg

[Me and my Monkey]

Anyone else watching this? Proper hoof ball so far. It’s so pleasing to think that a mere 6 years ago we failed in yet another quest to progress to the PL at the hands of the Massive, but now we are LIGHT YEARS ahead. This board really needs a “smug” emoji.

Pratchard v Bannan.

Pundits lauding world giants of the game deserving of PL stature.

Fair play Sunderland.

Even if most teams had grounds big enough, few would get over 40,000 in League One.

Play off or no play off.

Another game spoilt by Andy Hinchcliffe spouting shite.

Come on Sunderland......

Shocked to see the worlds biggest club in League one, I thought taking more fans to Bristol city meant you couldn’t get relegated

Dog of a game, but pleasing to see Massive getting bossed. Long may they linger in Noddyland.

 

[Scotchegg]

Pritchard.

Now that's a name I haven't heard in a long, long time...

One of my fave moments of football karma was that picture of him sat on the bench after being subbed off during our 5-0 mauling of Norwich

“Pritchard Pritchard what’s the score?”

 

[Easy 10]

My one slight conflict is that I really like Darren Moore. Comes across as a thoroughly decent bloke whenever I see him interviewed - much like CH he never seems to grizzle about officials or whatnot whenever his team has come up short.

But he's boss of Massive now, and their rampant failures are endlessly enjoyable. I truly hope they get proper humped tonight, to the extent that the 2nd leg is pointless.

I'll never forgive them for that 2016 playoff.

What’s not to like: a MASSIVE club losing against a first division club with Pritchard who was simply too good for us

……and collecting the MOM award in front of the cameras at Norwich with ‘Alex Pritchard is a wanker’ booming out from the away end throughout

Watched by 44,742, well done Sunderland for sensible pricing.

Great stadium, great fans. I really hope they finish the job against Massive, and get back up to the Championship. Always had a soft spot for them.

Wasn't it him that had fisticuffs with Baird in last match at The Goldstone?

Yeah it was.

Good memory. He wasn't the first though, and its not something I'd ever hold against him.
