Why dos Spence have his hair in pigtails?

So Sunderland can continually foul and don't get a yellow. Leeds...first foul is a yellow. I called it before the game and it happens too often to us

Was thinking the same

Marley had dreadlocks, Spence most certainly doesn't!

Referee their best player. Stopped us with standard fouls and kicked lumps out of us. 1 yellow each is ridiculous. But not unusual for us.....Rutter needs to give his head a wobble 2nd half.... hopefully DF will tell him same

The officiating issue isn't surprising, but what was it about Rutters performance that upsets (didn't see most of 1st half)?

thanks for the link Andy

Rutter has been very casual and wasteful. He is a 'maverick' type player and a bit of this is what you get but...too wasteful today. Retaining the ball, being strong, pass selection, positioning to receive easy ball and build up play. But he has talent and hope he shows it second half.

Thanks for the update

I realised I was wearing a red t-shirt first half. Pleased to announce I'm now ******* naked.
