Agree, thats was me + lots
I wasn't there so this is all speculation but... As far as the "flat" atmosphere is concerned I would think that some of it had to do with people watching the tactics, positioning and movement of the players more attentively than previous years. There was so much talk the last few months about how we were going to set up, play and approach the game philosophically. My guess is that instead of singing or yelling something at Defoe many of the match goers were instead quietly contemplating why Clichy and Bac were playing in the middle of the pitch and observing how Stones + Kolarov would start the attack by dribbling forward, passing, then making a run while Fernandino dropped back to fill the space.
Could be way off... But that's my theory on the "flat" atmosphere
PM one of the mods or RicFor the love of God will someone please tell me where the match thread has gone....or can a mod please make it re-appear.
Sunderland did really well today and I hope they have a good season.
