Yep he makes me feel quite emotional when I see he's picked Mackie again.

A very underrated player.

Thanks for clarifying that Stan.
I was a tad concerned that Fox's account had been hacked

Not hacked. I have just seen the light. Ollie may not quite be the Messiah but he is our messiah in footballing terms. Has given us our club back. It makes me quite emotional the thought of what he has done for us.

I just wish he would stop.

i honestly think we are only 3 or 4 players away from being a decent team, some good recruitment in January along the lines of the Scowen and Freeman signings and we could be in business, and hopefully spend a little bit on a quality striker or loan from the prem

How do you define "we could be in business "?,avoiding a relegation battle?

Dont worry if we win on saturday or any other time he`ll disappear as he always does, but if the opposition scores he`ll re-surface lol

Trust me, it's unadulterated sarcasm Ginge. :-)

...and no sane person actually believes we will click without a decent striker.

Indeed, I agree. Still think we can finish top half.

It seems in the course of being sarcastic he was absolutely right! Funny old world innit?
Edit...apart from the playoffs bit. No sane person actually believes we will be in the playoffs.

Actually can't tell if this is sarcasm or not lol.
I agree with it anyway.

Glad Tony has set the record straight.

Anyone can see Ollie is doing a great job and once we click would expect us to finish well inside the top half, maybe even play offs.

Yes Sunderland have had a poor start to the season but they are a strong team and for us to boss them on their own patch shouldn't be sniffed at. Had we scraped a draw could understand disappointment but we were very unlucky not to take all three points.

Just need to keep the faith. Hoops together stronger.
