What’s to be said? We didn’t deserve anything today. #SAFC

There’s just something so special about beating Leeds 1-0 πŸ†#SAFC

Yep. Definitely correct to use AND instead of OR. The Dan Neil thing was absolutely staggering. Totally up his own arse.

Depressing. I’m getting really fed up with the growth of racism, fostered by rags like the Mail and certain unpleasant right-wing politicians.

What a disgusting thing to do. Absolute fucking morons.

I know there are exceptions to every rule, but I’ve always believed that when you talk about a referee after a match, it’s because the referee has had an absolute howler. Or he’s behave like an entitled prick. So why does everybody keep talking about Jarred Gillett?……….

Totally agree with you.

Ok, a draw is a fair result, and team and fans were up for it, but I must have looked at the Enzo penalty farce over a dozen times. And try as hard as I might, it is, was and always will be a penalty. What is the point of VAR if it backs such a ridiculous decision by the referee? #Sunlun

A strong team, but really surprised Isidor not starting. Assume Diarra will play on the right?

You have put this so well. Sadly, we will always have a small minority of entitled idiots whose lack of intelligence is absolutely breathtaking.

Club Statement: Romaine Mundle Sunderland AFC is appalled by the vile online racist abuse directed at Romaine Mundle following today’s Premier League fixture against Fulham.

Racists disgust me, and I wish they'd fuck off away from Sunderland. Football is for everyone, and to target players, no matter who they play for, simply based on their skin colour or ancestry is as abhorrent as it is ignorant. I'll stand with Romaine.

The team is having an uncomfortable run at the moment, not helped by the bigots who parade their racism in the stands. We knew form on the pitch would fluctuate, but that’s why we need to get behind the team again, and show what being Sunderland is all about. We are Sunlun, win or lose. #SAFC

That’s what’s really concerning. The club is built on togetherness, some, if not all, of these players must feel absolute disgust. You couldn’t blame some of them if they decided that this is not for them in the long-term. You’re absolutely right to call them β€˜worms’.

It’s Monday morning, and far from calming down after the appalling abuse of Romaine yesterday, I find myself still raging about it. These scum who’ve violated this lovely lad are beyond evil. They have no place whatsoever in a modern society. They need to crawl back under their rock. #SAFC

Racists are evil. We don’t want them in our society. We stand with Romaine Mundle.

Romaine Mundle looked really upset at full-time, no doubt agonising over the chance he missed. I thought his contribution when he came on was excellent, and the missed chance just needs chalking up to experience. He’s a proper premier league player in the making. #SAFC

Great news that Granit Xhaka is fit again, his leadership is off-the-scale. Any team would miss a player of his quality. A blow though to lose Reinildo. One of the best full backs around, but a great opportunity now for Dennis Cirkin. Just hope we get news soon of a long term contract for him. #SAFC

The story of our season in that respect. Standard of commentating is terrible, almost as if we’re premier league imposters. It seems to be the other way round where the mags are concerned.

Shocked to hear about Kristjaan Speakman’s departure. He’s done a phenomenal job. Is it a case that the club’s continued evolution and progress has seen Florent Ghisolfi effectively move into the space that Speakman was occupying? #SAFC

Wish him all the very best. We wouldn’t be where we are without him. Will never forget his Wembley heroics. Legend.

Looks wonderful in the entrance foyer at the Stadium of Light.

Really disappointed to see Dan Neil leave. Let’s remember we are where we are because of him. He rejected leaving when the Chuckle Brothers were asset stripping the academy. He chose to stay and fight. A club legend. #SAFC

So sad things haven’t worked out for Dan. Without his contributions, we wouldn’t be where we are now. Deserves the gratitude of all proper fans.

Looking at social media, I wasn’t sure if there had been a massive earthquake, a really serious volcanic eruption, or the biggest most destructive storm this century.
But no, we’d lost a football match. It happens, get over it. We’ll be back stronger than before. Ha’way the lads! #Sunlun

Twitter simply not worth it anymore. Need everything SAFC to move to BlueSky. Would really love all of the Sunlun press to do the same.

Diarra has had so little football, but I think we’ve got a real player there. Don’t you think he needs to be in the team somehow?
