Why are they just lying? Assume the account is ran by Newcastle fans, but even then you'd think they just couldn't be bothered. #SAFC
The official attendance figures from Sunderland's game last night have come in at 7,984 - which includes the travelling away Brentford fans...
To put this figure into perspective, and to get ahead of the 'it's a cup game' comments, their northern co-part Newcastle are set to he country tonight to Everton to watch their team play in the same round of the exact same cup..
For a club that gets a lot of stick for their poor fanbase over the past few years, they really do absolutely nothing to help themselves... 🤦🏼♂️Community noteThe official attendance for Sunderland vs Brentford was 24,305, not the 7,984 claimed in the post and graphic.

Well, the US has been a blast with the magnificent @Delilahlyns. Houston to New York, fancy champagne, nice dinners, great company, amazing sights, and even a cheeky Broadway show or two.
Looking forward to getting home, even if it is only for a few days!

Don't think he is, like. The new rule is pretty clear. All people are arguing about os whether or not the agree with the new rule, which is a bit of a redundant point isn't it?

Thank you for that valuable impartial opinion on why Arsenal should be allowed to foul people in the box and not concede penalties, former Arsenal defender and literal current Arsenal ambassador Martin Keown. #SAFC
🤦♂️ "Ballard was very clever... he is making the foul!"
😤 "You don't want officials giving [Arsenal opponents] a hand up, that's what it felt like!"
Martin Keown is not happy with #SAFC getting a penalty against #AFC for grappling at a corner! 👀

Absolutely embarrassing. So so cringe.
I've submitted a formal complaint to TNT Sports regarding what I considered to be @DFletcherSport 's biased commentary during Sunderland v Arsenal and encourage Arsenal subscribers who felt similarly to raise their concerns too.
We pay for the service. Expecting balanced, l commentary isn't asking too much.
@tntsports, I look forward to your response via email.

Well you replied to it.
Here's more. 'Not solely down to the fans'.
'We need the players to start doing their bit TOO'
Of course the fans need to step up. All I'm saying is it's nowhere near as simple as opening the whole ground, chucking a borderline worthless BCB at people, then blamiup. The club have to rebuild the trust of the fans regarding cup games. It will take time. And the fans have to give them a chance to do it, preferably from inside the stadium.

I don't think this is really a debate. But I also don't think #SAFC have had an available better alternative whenever those two have played.
I mean, Hume was actually very effective yesterday. So while we do need a different profile for RW, it's not like Hume is a dud there.

🔴⚪️ ANALYSIS: Luke O'Nien's rise has been a great feelgood story at #SAFC. Trai Hume has done fine at times as a wide attacker. But having been so ruthless in other areas, does Regis Le Bris now need to say enough is enough on both fronts?

So it's that time of year again when every self-proclaimed expert with outrageously ill-deserved confidence and conviction predicts Sunderland will be hopeless.
Cool.

Isidor open to massive pay hike at Sunderland
Wanted man Wilson Isidor is looking for a big pay rise at Sunderland as rivals queue to sign him.
The Haitian hit man is wanted by West Ham and Ipswich and is one of several strikers Hull have offered £10 million for.
But Isidor is ng for a double your money contract from the Black Cats.
That could all change if Sunderland find a suitable replacement, so Isidor’s future is still up in the air.

No Leo Hjelde, no Ballard goal
No Ballard goal, no Watson winner
No Watson winner, no promotion
No promotion, no Xhaka
No Xhaka, no Europa League.
Ergo: No Leo Hjelde, no Europa League.
Just stating the facts. #SAFC ❤️

If Farage and Reform were SO against threats of violence like this one, why didnt they take any action against one of their own when they did it?
Was ok to depend on politics that time, aye?

What about the double standard of Reform wanting police action against Zach Polanski whilst not even taking party action against Simon Evans for doing the same thing?
Thoughts?

We don't need to imagine it. It happened just months ago, remember? Not only was there no police action, Farage refused to condemn it and Reform took no action on it at all.

I thought the mere idea of a World Cup final half-time show was absolute idiocy, but this is so much shitter than I thought it possibly could be.
