Championship - 22-23

[Ianrally]

The only team I want relegated are the pie eaters. Ever since that ex dingle Cook was manager and slagged us off at every opportunity I’ve hated them.

Ventured on to a Sunderland forum for a look at the feeling. It’s absolutely fucking superb. Threads on the “death spiral” that they’ve heard about from both us and Coventry. Then arguments over whether it’s his fault or lack of transfer activity. 
 

They've seen nothing yet!

They think it's because they don't have a striker. Wait till Tony starts signing multiple midfielders, plays them up front and sticks Ross Stewart at fullback.

Wait till he signs a defender and plays him up front

I always thought Mowbray was better with a small budget and when given money he went a bit batshit. If Sunderland spend big in Summer, they're screwed. Their fans won't stand by and watch a journey to nowhere unfold.

Huddersfield away game on the 10th of April has been selected for Sky and will kick off 12.30pm that day

Hull 2 WBA 0 ....................  with 30 mins to go.

Good result for our play off hopes if it stays like that.

Yep, bad loss that. 5th successive away defeat for them.

A good result for us tonight. Hull beating WBA.

[Ossydave]

I thought WBA were on to do a Forest style assault on promotion like last season but they're stuttering a fair bit lately. So much so that Hull themselves are only 3 points behind them....

[wilsdenrover]

Wigan behind already 

[West Yorks Rover]

Boro and Millwall both winning, as expected.

[wilsdenrover]

Sunderland behind - the spiral continues?

[DE.]

Yep, good of old Tone to keep the tradition going and give us one less competitor for the top six. 

[wilsdenrover]

The death spiral is impressive in its consistency.

How does he do it year on year, club by club??

[wilsdenrover]

Coventry on a good run. 
 

Middlesbrough  4 up…

If jdt leaves. My choice would be robbins.  The job he's done at Coventry is amazing 

[West Yorks Rover]

Boro 4-0 up.

I think the best we can hope for is to finish 4th, 2nd play-off leg at Home.

I'm curious as to how he explains it away at interviews. Do the interviewers even ask about it? The pattern is so obvious that you'd be negligent not to, and yet...

He is doing a great job

Do you know if his style is similar to JDTs?

Sunderland thumped at home. As per the above, consistent and predictable. A slight delay this year due to the World Cup.

It surely can’t be deliberate but at the same time it must be to be so consistent…

[wilsdenrover]

Norwich winning at Millwall, would we prefer a draw?

edit - now 3-1
