Sunderland midfield 5 ages v Bristol City: Watson (18) Jobe (19) Neil (22) Rigg (17) Mayenda (19) Average age: 19 #SAFC

#SAFC have arrived on BlueSky 👏🏻

He really is. Great to see the academy produce another bloody good footballer.

Thank goodness all those people telling us Tommy Watson wasn’t ready for the Championship a couple weeks ago don’t pick the team, eh? 😄 Good win, that! Deserved it. #SAFC

Kicking off December with the best Christmasy Christmas movie 😎🎄

An incredibly frustrating few games, but we have some really talented young players, who play really good football to watch, give their absolute all every single game, and go toe-to-toe with the best teams in the division. Back them to the fucking hilt. #SAFC

Interesting seeing mixed opinions on Tommy Watson’s performance. I didn’t think he looked out of his depth or particularly good. Some bright moments, some poor ones, as you’d expect for a kid making his third ever start and first at home. Happy he’s getting a chance. #SAFC

Definitely feel like the fine margins are going against #SAFC atm. The Isidor offside a real borderline call. It’ll turn. 😎

Frustrating, but keep plugging away. A lot more still to come from this side I feel. #SAFC

Well, last night in Vegas and looking forward to getting home now. Long trip when you’re travelling solo and working.

When the right riot, they’re ’protesters.’ Actual protesters? ’Hate marchers.’ They’re ‘concerned citizens’ and ‘patriots.’ The rest? ‘Traitors’. They’re never ‘fascists,’ just ‘normal people.’ The rest? ‘Commies’. They have ‘opinions.’ The rest have a ‘woke mind virus’ Does my head in.

I’d be tempted by something like this. Give Rigg a rest. #SAFC

‘Just’ the nine quadrillion three hundred sixty trillion or so miles, then… 😅 No doubt #SAFC would still sell it out, though. 😎

Well that was fun 🙂🏎️

Think last two games have shown what a huge miss Jobe has been. Natural for teams chasing a goal to rush right up (and push you right back) but Jobe best we have at operating in tight spaces, protecting the ball and winning free kicks. All invaluable in protecting leads. #SAFC

Think we’d have all taken a point before the game, but gutted to lose those two points in that way. Still, think those lads were warriors today. #SAFC

Ages of Sunderland’s current midfield 5: 19, 17, 22, 19, 18 #SAFC

27% of the players on this pitch are Sunderland academy products. #SAFC

Impossible to feel confident about #SAFC today with all the injuries/suspensions. Will have to settle for hopeful 🙂

Didn’t actually make it to the F1 practice or qualifying despite having the three-day pass. From Strip level all I could really tell was it was loud.

Tomorrow starts with watching #SAFC at 7am in bed, and finishes with me going to the Las Vegas F1 (10pm). Should be interesting.

The greatest free kick of all time 😂

Just never get sick of this place. ❤️🤩 Feels odd to be in Las Vegas working rather than just Vegasing.
