You do realise that you change the names and you've just described exactly your game plan - only bit you've missed out is the woeful striker chucking himself to the ground for a penalty

You`ve beaten us at your place for the first time since 2008 [15 years], so your elation is understandable.Miles ahead technically
Very limited team struggled with our movement up front due to a rather pedestrian centre back pairing, only tactic is get the ball to Giles who then hoofs it up top for that woeful striker to win in the air and hope Chubby & Forrs pick up the scraps
Long way to go. Lets see what happens by the end of the season.
In the meantime, you might find the following interesting:
I trust you now feel you`ve resolved your issues after your 1-3 reverse against Swansea last time out?

Let's see where both clubs finish come the end of the season.
It’s time for us to end their run against us, they have some very good players but they aren’t a very good side at this level.

15 years since they last beat us at their home ground.
We`ve only lost three in 12 league games under Michael Carrick`s tenure:
* Preston - in the final minute of injury time. His first match in charge.
* Burnley - who have won 18 games and lost only 2 all season
* Today.
Lets not lose perspective.
Under three months ago - 29th October 2022 - Michael Carrick had only just found time to take his coat off.
We were 21st on goals scored. We had the same squad as today - who couldnt string a pass together - let alone a win.
Since then, we have climbed into the top 6. One defeat in battle doesnt mean we`ve lost the war.
We regroup, reorg and go again

I don't feel bitter about the result at all. I feel privileged to have seen it. Sunderland beating the Boro is about as rare as the transit of Venus. Whilst it's disappointing to drop three points it's more than made up for by being able to witness such a rare piece of history. The next one will be in 2063.

Good job we didnt mention 1-3 home to Swansea then
Still 1 point better than you. How many years were you down in division 1 again.
Four mate which makes the job Mogga is doing even more remarkable not bad for a team that could only manage 5th place in the third division last season

Is that the same Mogga your fans wanted sacked a few games back.
