I'd have thought that beating the likes of Brighton, West Ham, and Cardiff (as well as Bolton and Wolves) was preferable to losing at home to Notts County. So how's your foot? Not really, the game against Notts County served it's purpose for us. the Silva, Angeleri, Riveros, Colback, Reid, Ferdinand etc all got a chance to play for once. Shame not to win the game but I think Bruce, like the majority of top-flight League managers these days, made it quite clear in his team selection that he wasn't going to lose any sleep over it. Shame whats happened to the FA Cup in my opinion. I'm still relatively young but even I can remember when it used to count for more than a chance to keep the reserves happy. With Richardson, Malbranque, Henderson, Bardsley , Gyan and Bent, who I see you chose to tactically omit. You were turned over by Notts County in your own backyard with your best strike force on offer you absolute clowns cunt. H

H I'm sure that Bruce would have liked to have tactically ommitted them as well, but as I've mentioned once or twice before, we were in the middle of something of an injury situation and the Newcastle game was on the immediate horizon.

Ahhhhh of course!!!! Newcastle - the benchmark for Sunderland success. Above them = good. Below them = bad. If only life were that simple for all of us.

So you had an injury crisis, you played practically most of your best players bar 2 or 3, got turned over at home by Notts County then have the temerity to try devalue our cup run. You sonny are probably the biggest and most deluded spacktard that has ever posted on this board. H

So getting to the Final is "not really", in your opinion, preferable to crashing out at home to Notts County? I can safely say on behalf of thousands on here that the Semi Final experience was just grand thanks. You wouldn't know; you were coming down from losing 2-0 away to Birmingham.

why are we feeding this troll? He's come on here and claimed playing in Europe is shit, the FA cup means nothing, citing the fact that they played a partial reserve team in their game against giants Notts County last season whilst ignoring the fact that we played very similar teams in the eary rounds last year and are even doing the same in our early European games now! It was the first season in which Sunderland finished higher than us (by one point.... thanks to Cattermoles handball!?)and we seem to have a few of these bumders appear.
He even seems to think Sunderland have a decent manager (yeah I know!) because they ripped off Liverpool, on that basis Alan Pardew is a fucking Brian Clough esque genius for getting so much for Andy Carroll.
Everyone knows Steve Bruce has a big fat head, that is all. End of discussion.

He's chatting shit lads.
Qualifying for Europe - its nothing new. For years teams have finished 4th and qualified for the "Champions" league. For years teams have qualified for Europe for being a "nice" team.
I can understand his bitterness. He's basically saying its dead fucking easy to qualify for Europe these days yet his own team still can't manage it.

Soo 5of your best players played then??? I thought we'd established that - you make it sound like 5 first eleven players in a team of eleven indicates strength? Surely it indicates weakness? I fail to see how the performance of Notts County or a bunch of then soon to be former Sunderland players in a one-off cup tie has any relevance to the ease or difficulty of your own cup run? I f anything, the fact that we, like many other top flight sides, fielded weakened teams and lost to lower league opposition backs my point about your easy run up? By reciting our tie then your actually making the point for me.

WD To be fair, we qualified for the Intertoto Cup through finishing seventh twice in the last decade. On both occasions we declined the opportunity to play in it. Reid said that if he wanted to play against pub teams in July he would call the players back from their holidays and play friendlies in the local park against the local pub sides, he didn't need to drag the lads across Europe to do it.

So they weren't good enough for the mighty Sunderland, so Bruce being the genius he is persuaded villa and Liverpool to spunk shit loads of cash on them? Also wasn't bardsley your fans player of the season?
