Yeah "Roker". Its an area of Sunderland, and the site of our former home - Roker Park.

You're not a fan of irony then?

Sunderlands d*ckhead stewards tend to ruin a trip up there, so I'll save my money for another away game.
Troll and proud of it.

Sorry, I've no idea what your on about.

And yes, our stewards are dickheads. Universally acknowledged by home and away fans. The club recently sent out questionnaires about things that could change on a matchday. 99% have complained about stewards.

In the past our stewards have behaved so outrageously that the home fans have been chanting 'We Hate Stewards'. Arseholes!

Can't be worse than last year - Took the coach on a Tuesday night and they'd not won for 14 games - obviously they scored after 41 seconds and beat us 4-0. Although it was almost amusing to see a Weiss - Wilshere - Gardner - Lee midfield for a short time in the game. Fastest ever.

So given that it can't be worse, I'm there. Take a point all day long from this game.

Elmo vs Elmo??
Steve Bruce could turn to Ahmed Elmohamady as he looks to find a solution to Sunderland's defensive problems.

Not Guilty! I copied and pasted from the SAFC site... I assumed they'd know...

Steve Bruce could turn to Ahmed Elmohamady as he looks to find a solution to Sunderland's defensive problems.

Bruce lost another centre-half at Fulham on Saturday when Anton Ferdinand limped off, and he joins Michael Turner and Titus Bramble in the treatment room.

The Sunderland manager opted to introduce Egyptian Elmohamady at right back as opposed to his usual role on the right side of midfield, with Nedum Onuoha moving inside to partner John Mensah.

The move worked well as the Black Cats kept a clean sheet, with Elmohamady impressing with his direct style of play, pace and heading ability.

And Bruce could repeat the experiment should Ferdinand, as expected, miss this Saturday's lunchtime date with Bolton Wanderers.

"We've lost Anton and it looks like he'll be out for Saturday as well," Bruce explained.

"But Onuoha and Mensah did particularly well and of course Elmohamady plays right back for his country.

"He is terrific in the air, wants to get forward and is a very good full back. He has all the attributes.

"Never say never [on Anton] because we're not too sure if it's his hamstring or his back as yet, but I don't think he'll make the weekend."

Watch out you Mackems, Muamba's after you. In today's BN he claims he's been working hard on his finishing and wants to be amongst the goals. Beware row Z.

Said that in his first preseason for us after scoring a belter in a friendly.Would be a bonus if he could sort it out as the ball does frequently fall to him after corners etc The couple he has scored were good goals

His goals are like blowjobs after 25 years of marriage. You never expect one, but when you get one.... Fantastic!!

You failed to mention the fact that we almost died on the way home!

Jaysus! That's out of order. I'd heard that a few had a pretty horrendous trip in terms of roadworks and that but blimey, that's nowt compared to that :shock:

In all fairness to your stewards, they probably don't have a big job on at the Reebok, given that they probably outnumber the amount of punters in the ground.
