FT: SUNDERLAND 0 - 1 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[Eric the Half a Bee]

anyone else think that if the goal hadn't gone in then we could have had a penalty for a foul on McGuiness - their defender was all over him

Maybe. I didn't notice who the defender was, but Tony Mowbray must have been absolutely livid with him. He was far more interested in the wrestling match with McGuinness that he didn't bother jumping to head the ball away. He really should have cleared that.

Only seen the goal once, but doesn’t the ball come more off his knee/foot, than head ?

At the start of last season, he looked really good in the games he played. However, he hadn't played enough games to draw a firm conclusion as to how good he really was. Then that awful injury, and you begin to doubt that he could come back and carry on from where he left off, but he has.

Excellent player!

"Wild Card' said: "Their left back has had both BA and Roberts in his back pocket today."

hilariously, thanks to the two big chances at the end we actually registered more xG than Sunderland as well 1.3 : 1.0

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Still can't believe we won this

So Sunderland still had an expected goals ratio of 1:0 even though they didn't score !!

It just hit him on the head and went in. I dont think he knew much about it he was being wrestled.

He’s admitted the ball just hit him.

The centre forward we’re crying out for right place, right time, the instinct all great strikers have.

apparently we are rocking England

when was the last time we won 3 league games in a row?

[Tuerto]

He’s admitted the ball just hit him.

Yeah, you could see that from his reaction when the ball went in. Admitted though, like it's some kind of confession? I can see why people are calling it a 'Smash and Grab'

This ‘Smash ‘n’ Grab’ thing is confusing me .....What the hell has Alan Warboys and Bruce Bannister got to do with us beating Sunderland away
