@TheExiledRobin Just caught up. Think they sum up the mediocrity well, but miss the point that its an interim appointment to tap into his knowledge. Feel they have just seen the headlines from the press conference and taken them out of context (e.g. "I don't know what a sporting director does")

To any young kid reading this… I’ve doubted myself in every league I’ve ever played in. Ryman Prem. Conference South. League Two. League One. Championship… And even right before my first Premier League start last night. That’s not weakness. That’s being human. That’s being alive. When I was growing up, I thought Premier League players were superhuman. Like they never felt doubt. Like they never felt nerves. The truth is…. it’s often the opposite. Social media won’t tell you that sometimes you step out there with no confidence. That’s normal. That’s ok! You now have to then step out there with courage. Confidence feels good. Courage doesn’t. But you do it anyway. Show courage enough times…. You build confidence. Here’s the mindset that’s carried me for 31 years. When it goes well: I worked for it. I earned it. Well done. Watch it back. Get better. When it doesn’t: I know I prepared the best I could. It didn’t go exactly to plan. That’s football. But Well done. Watch it back. Get better. That simple recipe gave me a special moment last night. Leading the team out. Playing alongside a group that fights for every ball. Celebrates tackles. Gives everything for the city of Sunderland. And sharing it with supporters who never gave up, even after four tough seasons in League One. So if you’re a young player feeling doubt… Low confidence… Or like you don’t believe in yourself… You’re not alone. Every player feels it. Confidence isn’t something you’re given. It’s something you build. Bit by bit. Day by day. With courage. With work. With learning. Anything worth building takes time. But that’s what makes it so worthwhile! Thank you @SunderlandAFC ❤️🤍

What happened to the sentiments expressed in below post from February 2024? It’s fantastic that he’s still playing and chasing the dream.

After years of hard work building up an organisation that promotes nothing but inclusivity and making a positive change - @instagram and @Meta have decided to permanently delete our account without any explanation. This is heartbreaking for our volunteers who have worked so hard to build our brand up. Please could we make some noise on this and try and get our page back? 🙏 Thank you.

Before people get too carried away with their "banter" next weekend, can we all just take a minute to remind ourselves of what our former Head Coach went through last October. Must be pretty much a year to the day since Liam Manning and his family lost baby Theo — something no parent should ever have to go through. And something that I know affected a great many of us deeply. Despite that, not only did he drag himself out of the pits of hell, but he came back and took us to our highest league position in nearly 20 years... If that doesn't deserve our respect, then I honestly don't know what does. Support our lads, of course we want the win. But let's do it in a way that reflects the best of us, with class, compassion and perspective when it comes to LM... 🙏🏽 ❤️🤍

@Bristoldelboy2 @BristolCity @nahkiwells Not sure riis is lazy. Think its more likely he's knackered. Would also explain the drop off in quality we've seen from him recently. Which would lead to lack of confidence and conviction. But can't afford to give him a break for the reasons you've mentioned. Vicious cycle!

The lack quality up top for @BristolCity is a huge worry which increasing looks like will cost us .Riis looks lazy at times & lacks conviction. Then we have 3 fellas on the bench no other clubs want , & righly so clearly Struber does not rate or trust , yet we binned @nahkiwells

@TheExiledRobin Yeh, and his reason is usually "I don't want to give things away for free if people haven't earned it". Would be surprised if he changes that answer if asked about it again, was just thinking out loud around whether there were any additional factors

@cider_red_sam We’ve only taken 8 regularly this half of the season though. It’s a consistent pattern

One thing I really don’t get, Liam. We have nine Sub options. Only filled 8, plus Williams clearly not fit enough to play any part Why do we not think experiencing tonight’s crowd & atmosphere wouldn’t have been good for a youth player or 2? Don’t like it at all

@Joey7Barton @McIlroyRory Man who moans at anyone having an opinion on football when they’ve not played at the top level is telling a career grand slam winning golfer what to do whilst admitting it’s the first time he’s ever sat down and watched a golf tournament from start to finish.

@3PIAPC Lee Peacock vs Real Mallorca (if I didn't dream that!?). Not sure I've ever seen a replay, not sure I want to. In my mind it was incredible lol

In the absence of any Bristol City action this weekend… the question is… What is greatest goal you have ever seen at Ashton Gate?… hopefully “greatest goal” means different things to different people and we will get a variety…
