Sunderland at home match thread

[Jose]

A big three points. Struggled to see the plan but couldn’t fault the endeavour. 

[Gert Mare]

I’m getting xG’d out of my skull now.

 

[redsquirrel]

wow,just wow.  didnt see anything more than a possible draw today. well done city

[BigTone]

A wins a win. Upwards & onwards

[cityexile]

Sunderland looked like a play off side, we didn’t, but sometimes the result is everything. Feels like a huge three points, and whilst looked second best for the second half, had to work extremely hard to keep that clean sheet. Get in.

And well done Max.

That old bottle of Thatchers Gold is coming out of the firdge right now. Excellent result.

I'm so shocked I've hit the Stoli. 

[MelksRed]

MOL had an excellent game. 

[Red Exile]

Excellent defensive display. Bit disturbing that we had so little possession in the second half - and what on earth was Cornick thinking?! But if Max has his doubters - and he does on here - that was a top class display from him. Impressed again by TGH.

We've played better than that under Manning and not won, so I'll take that. Good resilience and fighting spirit if nothing else.

I'll take the win, but my god we need to improve 

[Jerseybean]

 

Wow, well played Bristol City. Well played Max O’Leary.

The second half was like attack against defence but we stood up to them and showed real character.

Max made two world-class saves and we worked our socks-off all over the pitch to pick up a great three points against a very good Sunderland team.

Character, commitment and hard work in spades, well played lads.

2 wins from 3 at AG for Manning. Be nice if he can keep that up... 

[Northern Red]

I see QPR's turned corner continues apace...

Exactly what we were worried we’d lost. 
 

[Banjo Island]

Fantastic result

There's a bottle of Italy's most affordable fizz chilling.

January can’t come soon enough though.

We really need strengthening.

33% possession & their 18 shots 

Sometimes it’s not all about the stats & data!!

[The Coach]

Good win. Something to build upon. Still a lot to improve upon. 
 

Well done all the team 

[Red_Alligator]

Good grief. Thank goodness for that.

Three very valuable points which could well prove vital to us at the end of the season.

One of "those" games today. 

Next.

Ooooooooh we needed that....hopefully a few more onside to Liams ways.

A welcome 3 points however I very much doubt on that showing it would’ve convinced many. MO’L kept us in the game. 

[cotswoldred2]

For me that's the most important result this season, it keeps us just one defeat deficit which we can kick on now and hopefully climb the table. I wouldn't have betted on us not conceding second half...so breaking open the red.

Desperately. Let’s hope that £37m from Scott and Semenyo gets found again (hoping they check down the sofa). 

[fisherrich]

MOL MOTM

[Dan Robin]

Honestly I didn't expect that. 

Crucial win. Good job, ladsssss!

[pillred]

9 points away from the bottom 3, that was a very good time to win.
