West Brom vs Sunderland - April 2024

[Nockya]

West Brom vs Sunderland - April 2024.

The lads travel to the West Midlands today knowing there is no chance of finishing in the top six.
Likewise, relegation is not in the back of our minds.
So, there is nothing to play for but pride.

We would all like to see us get three points from this game.
The weather at the Hawthorns is cloudy with the possibility of showers, but it's a good day to play football.

The team lineup is as follows:
Sunderland AFC Starting XI: Patterson, Pembele, Hume, O’Nien, Ballard, Styles, Neil, Ekwah, Rigg, Clarke, Bellingham.
SAFC Substitutes: Bishop, Alese, Roberts, Ba, Mundle, Aouchiche, Dack, Hemir, Burstow.

So, it's an unchanged side from the 0-0 draw away at Leeds.

I must say that the Sunderland supporters are out-singing the West Brom fans.
If we get a draw today, I will be happy.
A good game ending in 1-1 would be a canny day, I think.

[Mawsey]

Nowt to play for? They work and play for Sunderland supporters. It's also about money, so if the club wants money, go for a win!

[Spider]

A 2-1 win to the lads.

[Nockya]

There's nothing to write home about so far.
It's a case of breaking each other down, but who will do that first?

[Spider]

WBA get a player sent off with a few minutes to go for half-time.

Ekwah

West Brom went down to 10 men and we scored - this all happened in the last three minutes of the first half.

[Crawford]

Watching this game, you wouldn't think West Brom is 5th in the league, and I'm not saying that because they are down to 10 men.
It only goes to show what we could have achieved with just a little more quality!

[Nockya]

We got a good three points today at West Brom.
So, we have upped our game over the last two matches, why oh why could we not have been consistent over the season.
Final score WBA 0-1 SAFC.
