    Sunderland a bit out of form and just getting over the line in games. Good time to play them.

    Ironic really.

    TV money has effectively ruined the competitiveness of English football due to poor distribution, then they're surprised when the availability of lower league football online is affecting attendances.

    If the TV money were more evenly distributed, the costs of attendance could go down, nullifying the impact of being able to watch online.

    There's plenty of money in football so that clubs shouldn't be charging £25 for an unattractive, one-among-forty six kinda game, but nope.

    Better just to pump hundreds of millions into the Premier League so we look good internationally.

    K, cool. Working really well for the international team, isn't it. One good tournament in 40 years.

    you'll know Dave, it's the hair that gives it away. Last season Dave mentioned a club near Bury ground, worth a visit, parking, all that stuff. Car park gate was shut, saw this bloke outside and said "Are you Dave?". He was, hair's a give away! Good bloke too.

    He won't recognise my hair, as I have none!! Missed him on Accrington trip, have his number and he has mine. Don't know if he knows Rocket but we're all on the same bus.

    Question from me is - with Payne playing well and getting attention from other clubs is it possible for him to not play well at Sunderland but us still to get something out of the game? We can all dream!

    We need points. Either now or at some stage. He needs to play well every week. If he goes so be it

    The EFL iFollow page only mentions Saturdays (14:45-17:15) as not being available:
    https://www.efl.com/iFollow/
    Also, when I go to the City iFollow page, it is offering me the Sunderland match to watch for £10 (I haven't completed the purchasing process though).

    I’m disappointed more city fans are not going... we should have sold out too. Embarrassing

    I get the feeling the EFL are making up the rules as they go along.

    Agree. We've got confidence and have settled into a way of playing.

    Three games in a week is going to be a challenge though. The bench, JOB apart, looks pretty thin.
