Sunderland 'Til I Cry: EFL and beyond 19/20

if brentford fuck us here then i have no words tbh

BRENTFORD

Brentford equaliser

fucking hell i've got no dog in these races and my heart's still pounding

Luton 3 Blackburn 2

Swansea needing just one more goal to pinch Forest's play off spot

and they've got it

Barnsley score!

jesus christ

-_-

lol, Stoke sticking the knife in. 4-1.

sorry imago, terrible night

only had my all-time musical hero die today as well

i noticed :(

would be v weird and funny if the EFL decided to dock Wednesday 12 points now ofc, but that ain't happening

Brentford have been amongst the worst chokers in history this season, they don't deserve shit in the playoffs

Sorry imago, that’s rough.

Perhaps Pontus Jansson has the secret of the classic choke.

You wouldn’t bet on Brentford even winning the playoff semis now, eh? Still hoping for a Watkins-shaped payout.

lol he sounds like the type of lad who wouldn't have choked in the 40's when it came to volunteering for the waffen ss!

Whilst at Leeds, Jansson has had a famous chant made for him, the song is called 'Pontus Jansson's Magic, He Wears A Magic Hat' (with a choking death's head insignia on it!)

Ha!

I remember fondly the season Brentford missed out on promotion from league 1 finishing second (cos of premier restructuring) and then we under uncle Neil, beat them in the playoffs on penalties despite being an absolute ragtag bunch of cloggers and went up at the expense of Bristol Rovers in the final, can't say we never get any luck really!

and my old classmate Chris Billy scored the winner at old Wembley

the last time I heard a report on Chris Billy he was doing a shitty telephone centre job and cursing that he never got into the electrical or plumbing trades rather than the dead end of being a decent lower league professional footballer who kept following Warnock to every club he went to in the 90's!

I think this might be the first time the entire bottom 5 of the Championship (with 20 days of season left) all avoid relegation. Although the compressed end to the season and Wigan points deduction were not the usual.

Corberan is official

Oh I've not read anything yet, will do the new manager bingo when I get home. Obv getting the nod from the mighty Bielsa has got to be a good sign. You surely can't have three bad managers in a row, we are due a bit more managerial luck now!

Oh Jeromey Corberon!

Why the fuck is Trevor Francis trending on twitter when a: the cunt isn't even dead. And b: the mighty terriers have just installed a new manager!

lol i checked, it's some Bluenoses having an eppy because they've retired Jude Bellingham's number

Lol that will wind up some of the worst cunts in this country, like it!

if we hadn't let them equalise in the 93rd they'd be down

can someone else name next season's thread btw, I think I've suffered enough karmic punishment for rubbing the black cats' noses in it

Superb Swansea goal.

my fuckin god the brentford red card, keith stroud is the worst pro referee ever

No Mitrovic. Is he injured?

compelling narrative arc to this one pic.twitter.com/5fUA39tN5P

never over till it's over tbf

all teams that play in white are cunts, yeah you heard me London ilx!

ok well it's over now

wariotifo shd have waited until this finished 5-0 lol

i think this might be the last ever competitive game at Griffin Park.

isn't that competitive

Perhaps Pontus Jansson has the secret of the classic choke.

XP LOLS!

a classical choker puts the tory white shite back in the game!

the mighty Warito abides

how lovely for west london

you can't deny their transfer policy has been pretty impressive and canny, lots of champo clubs have spent their way into mediocrity. Including my lot (when they were a pretend prem club!)

matthew benham is tbf in actual fact a moneyball genius and he kind of deserves this

yes he is a complete stain, but they have either been incredibly fortuitous in the transfer market or someone knows wtf they are doing! Saying that, we've been fucking pony this season and still took 4 pts off them.

we were even ponier and were 15 minutes from taking 6 off them

Hoping effing Fulham get through because I can’t face wanting Cardiff to win. Don’t care what happens really, just desperate for Watkins to be sold. Desperate!

back in pre Rona times you could have have afforded yourself the luxury of a bit more patience and gamble on him being a success in the prem and yielding a better sell on cut, but them days are gone:( Rough times for league 1/2 clubs right now
