Re: Fylde ladies V Sunderland ladies on Sunday 5/1/2020

At one point under Ellis Short I am sure that the club wouldn't give the women's team just £10,000 to get by.
I am not saying this is the reason we didn't get the promotions though, am just saying.

All the fans really care about is what's on the pitch. Not how clean the stadium looks
Still baffled because without a decent team capable of going places it's no good having the rest.
Maybe it's me but Donald seems happy with it.

Really hope you're right. Just feels pretty crappy at the minute :(
Bookmark this and come back to thank me for my positive charm :cheers:
Seriously though it will improve because if it doesn't we are in the deep proverbial.

Re: The Only Way Is Up

This is the worst position in the clubs entire history, I think fans are entitled and justified in not feeling great about it Correct but should we take one result and say our new manager is bad. We all feel bad but one swallow doesn't make a summer. It'll come good and on Tuesday night we will see...

Re: Parkinson: "we need to produce more"

What was the result of the same fixture last season? 1-1 but I don't think we should compare these 2 games. There was no way Parky could get to know the strengths and weaknesses of the Sunderland team in one or two days, he knows a little more now. It's alright for me saying we should be doing this...
