And we see the consequences of more mystifying selection decisions- another clueless, toothless performance given a veneer of respectability by an undeserved equalizer- enough to keep the hapless Poyet in place as we die a slow death.
Garbage on the pitch, yet another player bringing ignominy to the club off it, while the manager engages in unseemly scuffles alongside it. Never has this great club been shamed so regularly- on and off the field- by its employees. Shambolic all round, but still Short does nothing to rid the club of the freeloaders and incompetents that have turned us into a laughing stock and will take us into the Championship. I despair.

That was an appaling display against a poor Hull side and Poyet got it wrong with his team selection and tactics which confused the players as much as the visiting Sunderland fans .we were so lucky to get a point we were all over the place !! and I can't see us surviving with this manager who showed tonight more passion on the touchline than his players did on the pitch ! we are becoming a laughing stock and this manager either now or at the end of the season has to go . I can't see us surviving ! why he dropped both Alvarez and Van AN Holt who changed the game is a mystery ! and why he continues to play Bridcutt I don't know !.

Agree0 Disagree0

Alverez & Anholt both are still carrying knocks that's why he didn't put them in at the start. I don't however have a flying clue why he played four central midfielders (and none of them managed to close the gap they scored through) we have wingers in the youth team, I'd have went there in a shot.

Agree with you about using the youngsters ! although un experianced they would give us 110% and more importantly PACE ! why Poyet has loaned out Gooch(who scored for Gateshead ) is so negative and the likes of Whatmore would have given us some pace which is badly lacking !

Bridcutt and Graham selected ahead of VA, Alvarez and Wickham? Is Poyet determined to clock up his fifth defeat to Hull in a season and a half?

Poyets formation was weird 4-2-2-2 what on earth was that Gus ! why can't he play 4-4-2 ! . the players don't understand his formations !. and 6 bookings ? losing it off the pitch is affecting moral on the pitch ! I feel sorry for Defoe as he must wonder why he's come here as he doesn't get the service off the midfielders ! and game after game no width !.

Agree0 Disagree0

I think it was supposed to be a 4-4-2 diamond, which I think is a good formation for the players that we have, but there was no width. He talked about having wingers, but it looked like 4 CMs. Every time the ball made it to the top of the box there were between 4 and 6 players (plus their defenders) trying to feed the ball through. It wasn't until Alvarez and PvA came on and start stretching the pitch that we had half a chance. My opinion: Right idea, poor execution.
