We got a point at Shrewsbury where Sunderland got beaten today. We got three points at Accrington where the home team had beaten the previously unbeaten leaders in their last home game. No team has a right to win games and we’re doing OK. Don’t pretend the comments on here are about football. They’re all about Evans. Some people just can’t get over the fact that he’s the manager. I know this might be a bit radical but how about giving the team a bit of fxxxing support.

Absolutely on the money. If SL had scraped a 0-1 win like yesterday there would not be some of this negativity from the usual suspects.
