1 down, a funny looping header why Dixon didn't get though

Always going to concede. Is this a relegation battle now?

Being diplomatic here a taller keeper would have saved it but Dixon has kept us in the game with the saves he made

It’s just too repetitive; the BEN don’t need a reporter at an away match, just photocopy Sunderland one and change the names.

I'd let young Henry have a run at them might take some pressure off us

We get Amaechi instead so he best score

If only our team was as good as the support

All done in a point would have been nice but alas it was not to be

Just hoping Doyle and Bakayoko are fit for Tuesday, Kachunga on his own it's too much. Williams injured if it's long term potentially Holden level. Feel as low as I've felt for a time.

January's incoming players look a long way away tonight.
They best be good, they might need to pull some rabbits out of hats as well as defend, make and score goals.

thanks Benny swie did the right thing today

I don't want to spoil everyone's tea. Sheehan out 9 months, Bakayoko minimum 6 weeks, Williams dislocated shoulder, popped back in. Absence unknown.

Donny at home 8pm on Tues, can you take a midfield with you if you are going to the match.

No point having 2 players for every position if now most of them are now long term injuries.

I make it currently 10 out. Including MJ Williams one. And dislocated shoulders are tricky things at times.

Started September with 3 spare spots to fill the quota plus could have had another of Edwards not registered. Letting sarcevic and comley go before January just as daft and coming back to haunt us. Thought a mistake letting Darcy go to Norway. He should be involved, he was in the first team 2 years ago in league one and one of the better players. Yes bad luck but bad management too.

Another option bring back Crawford in January.

IE after match and our huge injury list

Bring your boots on Tuesday night don't be surprised if you see a red card.

More injuries than we can cope with means we will not achieve a playoff position. We may be lucky to avoid relegation unless there is a miracle in January.

Benny pinpointed Evatt's mistakes in letting players leave or loaned out before January when we have a small squad.

He's a young manager and it shows his lack of experience. Hopefully, in the fullness of time, he will improve. He has to because he has a three contract.

As expected, I worked most of the day and on returning inside with my son, I turned on Radio Manchester and within seconds we were a goal down.

November was predicted as a month were we could possiblystart a mini revival, as it is it could be a total disaster.. All we can can do is wait and see and hope.

Norway's season ended when the clocks went back so Darcy should be match fit and able to slot in on Tues night.
If anybody knows where the Trialist family are wintering can you give IE a ring. What was the swerve Crafty Ken used to get players in when we needed them.

I don't think Darcy will be allowed to play until January. A long 9 games including the cup tie before we can recall loans or bring signings in.

I have us down to 15 fit pros at the moment. Out on loan. Until the end of the season politic, greenidge, colvin. Until January Crawford, Hutchinson, fitzmartin. Darcy December, Edwards and Senior until 12 December.

Plus Alexander until the end of the season.

We'll not be able to wear many teams down with our super fitness will we if we run out of players. If there is a plan B to implement I'm not sure we'll be able to cope with the confusion.
Unless the B in Plan B stands for Baldrick and it's a most cunning plan.

Is there anybody out there who is fit and ready to play, must be free and available now.
