Busy Time for the Lads

Busy couple of weeks ahead for us. Good job I am living in a area where life can be taken easy. Mind we do have our troubles, as I am writing this our internet is down. Been down for a couple of hours now, apart from a brief 10 minutes of working. I do have a phone that I can use for the internet but being remote a very slow connection.

The Derby Game that is not a Derby

FA Cup weekend. It may not mean much to the likes of the Manchester teams but a day out at Wembley would be a day to remember for most of our lives. A day at Wembley is a dream for most fans, even the so called big 4. The fans may not turn out in numbers to the early rounds, can't understand why not but come the big day they will all be shouting for a ticket.

Normal Service is resumed

I am talking about me & this blog, not Sunderland. We are doing something that we have not done of a while, win games and even consecutive games. My absence was due to depression, a bug bare of mine. Hopefully, although the depression has not gone, it has lifted enough to let me continue with these. Getting back to the important things in life, Sunderland  currently & Saturday.

All Aboard, the Magic Carpet has Reappeared.

I want to say to all of you who are going on Sunday, I am so jealous of you. I wish I had the magic carpet here to whisk me down the road. Until I got the news that I am due in hospital again for a test next Thursday, all I have thought about was Martin and Sunday. This is an exciting period to be a supporter. Where will Martin lead us, to the golden heights or another 7 day wonder?

Bye Bye Bruce, Hello Martin

I know I said that I would not be writing a blog this week but that is depression for you. One day something seems too much for you and another day you think you can.

The storm clouds are passing over SOL and a new era is about to being. Wish the same could be said for up here. Winds overnight of up to 70mph and 30-40 winds for the rest of the week with maybe snow. Bruce is gone but lets think kindly of him. He has stabilized us a premiership club, not the mid table team he has been saying we are but one that flirts with relegation most seasons. This tosh the media are saying about we have always been against him because of his childhood, is rubbish. I wish him well and hope that he is soon back in employment as a manager. I believe that he has always tried his best for us but I am afraid that did not work for us.
