Twenty five shots on goal with only three on target is a damning statistic....even taking onto account some of them would have been blocked.

Seems like a defeat today Sad...said it plenty of times and did so again last week to lads who sit near us - the only thing i don't like about Mowbray is his substitutions when he hoys three on at once - it invariably makes us worse....today looked like a case of i'll throw plenty on and I HOPE they can sort it out with it looking as if there was no new plan of attack.

I know nothing happened in first ten minutes of second half but thought it was too early to hoy three on together....all throughout first half, especially when they had a full team i thought it was just a case of how many we'd score.

Still no striker to score ....Rusyn Cry

Sunderland is a club remodelling itself in the image of its ownership group; young, dynamic and modern. Sadly for Tony Mowbray, a 60-year-old from Middlesbrough never quite looked the long-term answer. Very harsh but strangely inevitable

And...

Mowbray can still leave with his reputation enhanced. Sunderland were a joy to watch at times and those wins v WBA, Preston and Luton at the back end of last season were a measure of the unity he’d built.

And...
