Bare in mind there'll be about 20,000 more people running this years marathon than in 2016.

Emily Maitlis refers to the Iran debacle as a "whim not a win" for Trump. Spot on. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DW39_vcDNvt/?igsh=MTVsbDhwb24yZzh4bQ==

That playoff defeat under Burley still pisses me off. So yeah, let’s put them back in their box.

Say that you want me (Say that you want me) All of the time (All of the time) Say that you need me (Say that you need me) You'll always be mine (Always be mine) 'Cause we've got Tonda Eckert We've got Tonda Eckert 'Cause we've got Tonda Eckert So glad you're mine

My bad, not sure why I thought Leeds were playing Tuesday 🫠

By the way, the craziest bit of info that came from the Arsenal game commentary was that Tonda wasn't even born when Shearer scored a hattrick on his debut against Arsenal, if you want to feel old.

"For the Love of Money" by O'Jays. Give this man a contract before a major team does.

Scienza all the way. When the fans had turned on the team, 1 person came forward. This is bigger than wins to me. Otherwise, Peretz for his immediate impact. Edit: Also Scienza for that goal celebration vs. Pompey. Legend.

Scienza. Hands down. But a lot of honourable mentions - Peretz, Azaz, THB and Downes.

Yes he was. (I just looked him up 😊)

Mine turned up today and won’t be getting a run out, even in the North Devon local. Dodgy halo and bright yellow. Good fit though!

Great post, which not only summarises the win over Wrexham well, but speaks for a lot of people’s reaction to the transformation of the side since January. One of the things I reflect on is just how many of us had written players, coaches, technical directors off as not good enough, out of their depth or not invested in the Club. Collectively we’ve been proven wrong, and it’s a humbling experience. In no particular order the following have been written off at various times by many of us. Downes, THB, Manning, Matsuki, Azaz, Stewart, Edozie, Eckert and Spors. Being a fan is partly about forming opinions of players and Managers; and often we’re right, yet in the last three months I’d guess that every fan has been forced to upturn their strong belief about several players and certainly about Tonda. And isn’t that a good thing. You can follow a Club and a sport for a long time, make accurate assessments, analyse games, managers and players with a degree of success and then, get sat on your backside by what we’ve witnessed since January.

I'd often wondered who frokiaered the club, and now I know.

Wasn't Klaus Augenthaler a defender? Maybe Karl-Heinz Rummenigge? I just remember them from the German teams in World Cups and Euros from 86 to 90, when I was a kid, so a little curious 🙂

Sometimes, it is Rocket Scienza.

I think SR are having a joke at our expense: New Appointment Details Date of Appointment: 23/02/2026 Name: MS KATRINA DICK The company confirms that the person named has consented to act as a secretary.

I'll give a shout to Stephens. Has he done much wrong? He's been excellent in the recent good run and I think the players respect his leadership.

What the Arsenal game analysis has taught me is that Tonda is fastidious in finding opponents' weaknesses and coaching his players to exploit them. As a result im feeling more confident than ever. I'm sure we will have moments of either struggling to break them down or deal with their direct and physical attacks. I'm sure there will be moments where Derby look like scoring. I am feeling good about this game though. Really hoping for another three points.

Scienza, Peretz, Azaz, Downes, THB, Reeves,

I can see why the Sunderland fans rated him. And I think there's still more to come, but it might take a couple of years until the injuries have faded.
