@RokerReport Need a total reset, with new manager and new back room staff, with new ideas and game plan, got no faith in Dodds , proctor and rest of coaching staff at the minute not sure I’ll be renewing season ticket at the moment
Really wanted to be proven wrong but just can’t see Michael Beale working at Sunderland. It’s just not going to happen, which is unfortunate.
What are your thoughts?

3 interviews today, BBC radio Newcastle this morning at the ungodly hour of 7.20 am and then BBC news at 2.30 pm then GB news at 3.10 pm, the mr bates v post office drama is certainly bringing the scandal to people’s attention again, so important to share our stories.
I wasn’t part of the group of 555 but I was prosecuted by the post office in 2008 for false accounting and my conviction was overturned in nov 21, there are so many of us who have been affected in similar ways to those represented in this drama, so please watch and show support
Twitter do what you do best and light up #PostOfficeScandal#PostOffice
If you're not watching then get it on ITV Hub. I have the absolute honour to know one of the folks depicted and what she went through is sickening.

The @ITV drama ‘Mr Bates vs The Post Office’ tells the incredible story of the #PostOfficeScandal.
@NeilHudgell took up the fight to clear the names of those involved.
This is their ‘unbelievable’ true story.

#PostOfficeInquiry
Pauline Stonehouse was another SubPostmaster 'investigated' by Natasha Bernard.
Natasha's evidence is that she cannot remember Pauline's case.
On the other hand Pauline can never forget the interrogation she received in 2007:
"They were so aggressive, I was there for hours and hours."
But it wasn't the Police asking the questions of Pauline, it was officials from the Post Office, for whom she worked as a Branch Manager.
"Given they aren't the Police, they made it feel like they were"
Pauline speaks of her 'Scandal 'Hell'
Pauline had two girls at home, the youngest had just turned two when she was eventually brought to court. "I was worried I would go to prison, because that was implied if I didn't plead guilty, even though I hadn't done anything wrong."
Pauline and her family had to declare bankruptcy and were made homeless. She was given a six-month community order.
It was another 14 years until she had her conviction overturned, and like more than 70 others so far, the Court of Appeal made the ruling that the Post Office had carried out a malicious prosecution.
