Wise Men Say

Another pretty good performance saw The Lads get a point against Arsenal. The KKK excelled once more. Would it be greedy of us to be disappointed we didn't pick up all three points? We're out the relegation zone though, so that's canny. In the studio this week we've got ALS stalwart Paul 'Sobs' Dobson and WMS regulars Craig Clark and Rory Fallow. Hosted on Acast.

Well, well, well. The lads only went and won at Carrow Road, knowing a defeat would have almost certainly consigned them to relegation. Stephen Goldsmith is joined by the Sunderland Echo's Chris Young and Rory Fallow to talk about it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Defeat to Leicester. A frustrating game. A miss of the season contender from Rodwell. If we don't win next week then we're probably cooked. Joining us to discuss our latest disappointment is the Evening Chronicle's James Hunter and WMS regular Rory Fallow. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

There's a pattern emerging. It involves Sunderland playing well enough to win and then not winning. It's annoying, isn't it? The pressure is on now but do we believe we can still stay up? Joining us is former Sunderland Echo writer and freelance journalist Graeme Anderson. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Nine derbies undefeated and another good performance, unfortunately we couldn't hang on. Should we have been hanging on? A draw not the worst result in the world, but we're back in the bottom three. We'll talk about all that kind of stuff and more. This week we're joined by WMS regular Rory Fallow. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

After a decent performance against Manchester City, we managed to get ourselves a draw at Anfield. Somehow. We'll discuss the result, Billy Jones, hear from Sam, probably talk about Billy Jones some more. Listen in. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A draw against Bournemouth wasn't want we wanted, let's be honest. Yet half an hour into the game, even that looked way beyond us. There's been a lot made of Sam's comments on respecting the point has thrown up quite a debate. We'll hear him make that comment and debate ourselves on it. Hosted on Acast.

In what is a bit of a bonus episode, we discuss the much needed win against Aston Villa. We've had many false dawns with the lads over recent years, so beating a side somehow worse than us isn't enough to fool us. Or is it? Maybe the team should be cut some slack. Or should they?Listen, eh, and find out. Goldy is with WMS lads Craig Clark and Rory Fallow. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In what is the last WMS of 2015 (ITL is still going, so don't worry) we discuss the predictable turn around by a Mourinho-less Chelsea. What makes the whole thing even less bearable (if that's possible) is the sudden form of sides around us. Bastards. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Alright, well if last week we were positive after defeat, this week gives a different feel. While the first 20 minutes were shocking - we were certainly *alright* after that. It's not enough though, is it? Or is it? Have Newcastle and Bournemouth suddenly turned into Bayern Munich or will they revert back to being rubbish so that we can continue to be rubbish and get away with it?Tom Lynne makes a WMS return and is joined by our own Gary Spalding. James Hunter off the Chronicle makes his hundred millionth appearance on the pod. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We won a game of football. Let's not get excited all at once, but it's nice to talk about positive things from time to time. No Stephen this week, so hairy philosopher Craig Clark gets involved.
