Beck out jumped on that cross. He’s having a poor second half

Gone to pot..we're all over the place!

[yankfan]

Wheels are off. More likely to be 4-1 than 2-2

[Tom]

Getting battered now this could end up a handful for them need to stem it now 

[davulsukur]

Not much left on the bench to bring in and change a game either.

[moerpho]

In other news: Boro has gone from 3-0 at half time to a red card and 3-3. Nuts this league.

[RevidgeBlue]

I don't think this sort of capitulation happens with Travis on the pitch.

[K-Hod]

Think this is the worst I’ve ever seen Cantwell play for us.

[booth]

We just seem to have ran out of steam, a throwback to the Mowbray days where we’d play one half then think we’d done enough.

We didn’t take our chances in the first half.

To add to that, Mak looks like the worst CF we’ve ever employed 🫣

Gueye really is a waste of space. Prove me wrong!

I think today's lesson is we might have to try Buckley in the "Trav" role instead of Baker.

[ItsRoverZ]

This is pathetic. No once of fight in us and we don't even look capable of mustering up a shot let alone a goal

Cantwell’s been okay. Tronstad on the other hand

[yankfan]

Second half shambles. The mask of the first half is off and we look imposters to have been one up at half.

He seems to be doing all the things you wouldn't expect really well (tracking back, winning the ball etc.) But all the things you'd expect him to do (passing, threading one through, putting in a dedrnt cross) he's been shite at.

[Tom]

There you go, free hit for Rev, awful cross from Tronstad

It’s like they all had a drink at half time.

[had.e.nuff]

I think today shows what a wafer thin squad we have we cant afford to loose regular first team players as we dont have a lot behind them.

[roversinmyblood]

Why are we playing hoof ball all of a sudden. It just invites trouble when we lose possession 

[K-Hod]

Pro tip for the lads- football matches last 90 minutes, you can’t just play for 45 and hope to win.

[ItsRoverZ]

1 win in 5 away games Sunderland having an absolute breeze of a time

Bizarre 

First half struggle to find a player not doing their job, second half you couldn’t find a player doing theirs!

The worst thing is there’s only a goal in it but it doesn’t feel there is any question over the outcome

Buckley and Weimann on for Baker and Dolan

[DE.]

We're a team crying out for some fresh blood and reinforcements in January. Unfortunately we all know that won't happen. 

[Forever Blue]

Nothing strange about this. We were excellent first half but didn’t kill the game when we had clear cut chances. 
 

2nd half was always going to be different. They have some really good players.
