The news that Keith Stroud would be in charge yesterday caused a lot of people to start moaning about our bad luck because he hates us, last night proved he bloody loves getting the cards out but 18 points out of the 24 available in games he's overseen doesn't suggest much of a vendetta.
Nunez, as with Liverpool being finished, as with Man City having the league won already, as with Spurs mounting a challenge, as with Haaland scoring 70 goals this season, and as with every fucking thing else these days - everything is based solely on the last 10 minutes people have seen. All the media all the time just shrinks brains.
:drool:
Baldy has shown who's boss. Cheerio Cristiano.
Is his contract up at the end of the season?

Wolves' hunt for a new manager continues after QPR boss Michael Beale turned down an approach from the club.
Beale was the first choice to replace Bruno Lage, who was sacked on 2 October, after Julen Lopetegui also said no to the job.
Wolves made their approach on Thursday morning, mindful QPR had a game in the Championship on Wednesday.
It had been thought the process would be smooth, but the 42-year-old has told QPR he wants to stay at Loftus Road.
Rejected by the QPR manager :harold:
Yes. Think we have the option on the club side to extend for another year but that's obviously not going to be taken up.Quote:

He'd be bitching that Haaland is scoring more than him.
He’s meant to be pretty shit hot. Huge reason Gerrard done well at Rangers.Quote:

Unreal, as is the zealousy of the commentators. Did he even move his head? Just looked like Mitrovic ran into him. Not for me Clive.
Quality acting from Mitro.
That's never a pen.
"We want Gerrard out" chants :eyemouth:
:drool:
We've had some luck here, but we've also been miles better. Should have scored 3 or 4 in the first half alone.
Good grief we're awful.
Well, apparently it is, most of the time.Quote:

Horrendous mate. This is just nothing football.Quote:

Never mind, Gerrard SACKED already.
Tier 1!
Official club sources are usually designated tier 0 but it's nice to see you trying to get involved.
'Head Coach' like they're some rinky-dink Dutch side. He's better off without them.
This is your worst post.Quote:

And, the thing is, at the beginning of the season you would have marked Fulham down as one of the more "winnable" fixtures too. The reality of the situation now is that they're in the top half and have got a striker very capable of putting the ball in the back of the net, we have racked up two points from the last possible twenty one and display an almost complete inability to create any serious attacking threat.
Bad times.
Stevie G won’t be out of work too long at least.
Brendan Rodgers must be keeping an eye on it, too.
It doesn't pay very well. Michael O'Neill was getting more money when he went to Stoke. I doubt either would be interested.
The Sunderland board is amazing. When we were in the Premier League, all the refs would cave in to the big sides so we never got any decisions. The refs in League One were determined to show they wouldn't be intimidated by the big crowds, so we didn't get any decision. But it'd be much better in the Championship...until we got there, then we were desperate for Premier League refs as the Championship ones were so bad/biased/corrupt...so we had Craig Pawson for the Blackburn game on Tuesday.Quote:

The most recent example. This thread was started before Tuesday's game.
We had Stroud last week. Didn't go great.Quote:

On the Swindon board someone actually decided to set up a dedicated thread every post-match to rate the referee's performance. Funnily enough, most turn out to be decent, 7/10 performances. Just the bad ones stick out so much more.
I write match reports on the Sunderland board, with just a (deliberate) brief comment about the ref. Quite often people just want to have a moan about the man in black.Quote:

The most recent two, for example.
The only noticeably bad refereeing/officiating performance was in our last match against Blackburn where we were denied a blatant penalty and Blackburn's second goal was clearly offside.Quote:

Funnily enough that was the Premier League ref. Some have suggested the officials' reliance on VAR as a back up have meant they are now more likely to not give these tight decisions, which may have some legs.Quote:

Blatant penalty for me. Blackburn player was nowhere near the ball.Quote:

This Ronaldo stuff could kinda ruin his legacy. Refused to come on against Spurs? :wtf:
FM23 done him dirty too:

Thiago out with an ear infection. Wonderful stuff...
Nunez also added to the pile. Quite a youthful lineup with very little attacking offerings from the bench. Recipe for disaster.
Do we still have Arthur? Has he played a second for us yet?
He's injured.
And shit, I would imagine.
Injured and out for 3-4 months.Quote:
