Job done. Well done Karl.

Job done. Well done Karl.

Indeed I don't think any of the other names mentioned would have been able to salvage the season like KR did. As well making it clear who will or won't be in his plans for the future.

Also, Shaun Derry was there today and having spoke to him I get the feeling he could be here next season in a coaching capacity.

On that note did Faz and Allen join the walk around the pitch? After the two disastrous parts to the season they contributed to, they should be off two, and KR allowed to bring his own team in.

Derry was the manager at Cambridge United who took Lego from Everton as a 17/18 yr old and gave him his first open age games. I think he's a big Lego fan...

 

[Ovaltoyou]

Still struggling to score from open play. I trust KR to get it right for next season. Do not think (hope) the person on the front of the programme is signed on for next season.

 

[Fourthstand]

I honestly think we will get rid of more including Obika. KR is talking of signing 11-12 players and a smaller squad.

 

[LondonRoader]

Let Ricardinho go???
Are you for real?
Mr entertainment is worth the price of the season ticket...On his own!!!??

Unfortunately I think he will not be here next season

His next contract started today or something along those lines what KR said when asked

An I missing something?

been suggested somewhere that Derry being brought in to help KR - so somebody else has put 2 and 2 together and is hoping Lego will stay !!!

I don't think he said that. KR said that Ricardinho's automatic contract extension was NOT triggered by him coming on as a sub today - it applied to starts, not appearances.

After the more than acceptable start and the strong finish they contributed to it's surely vital that they stay?

 

[brassmonkey]

Didn't we get a new academy manager in today? Sure I read it somewhere? One of our ex players. Darren purse. Obviously some changes in the backroom staff coming.

No. Darren Purse is coming in as U16 coach.
We seem to have a very good Academy manager.

 

[PottersRightBoot]

Robinson has had an excellent start to his OUFC managerial career.

The bloke clearly has a plan and is in - for the comparatively - long haul,

We are now playing with energy and aggression. Ledson was superb today. I’d love him to stay - but guess he won’t.

And well done to Mousinho - showed leadership with that spot kick.

Although there seemed to be a team schism re penno 2.

Get rid of the deadwood, keep as many of the 10-12 real performers in the squad as possible, rebuild judiciously - and we are looking at realistic playoff place next season.

I trust Robinson to deliver - he seems suited to OUFC. He gets our DNA.

Fans brilliant again today . ?

Thanks I didn’t hear all the interview due to noise, being a bit mutton and maybe a bit wishful thinking.
Personally no would keep him for r another season as back up.

 

[uptheus]

Hope we can take a few to Blackburn next week.

Faz and Chrissy Allen were part of the walk round the pitch at the end of the game ?

 

[windmill]

When do the Sunderland away tickets go on sale?

Better snap them up quick, they could be non league in two seasons time.

The East stand was truly superb again today. We have our mojo back.
The support has been brilliant in the last few weeks, right when we needed it most.
I was not in favour of the drum at first, but, you know what? It works! Brilliantly.
Even the north stand use it to get behind the team.
Today I thought we did enough, but no more than that. The 2nd pen was soft but the lino gave it and the ref followed his lead.
Shortly after it was calmly dispatched by Kane, ‘U’s are staying up’ U’s are staying up’ echoed round my ears. Gave me a cuddly warm feeling. Lets all hug Borntobeyellow guys!!!?

Thought the fans were brilliant today. I don’t make it to many games these days due to being an exile, work and young family and that was my first experience of the drum. Thought I was going to be embarrassed by it but it and the overall atmosphere created by the ultras and the east stand in general was amazing! My personal favourites - the clap, clap, clap-clap-clap-clap U’s! Chant and ricky’s song.

I still feel like hugging Borntobeyellow - with a pillow on his face (until he stops struggling). ?
