@Matt_Walker96: Outworked, outfought, outplayed and tactically outdone by an awful Sunderland side. Utter joke today

@LiamEmery: As expected yet another poor performance against a poor side. But knowing donny we’ll go and spank 2nd placed Oxford 3-0 on Wednesday. You reds

@SallyHonch_x: Sunderland wanted it more 1st half..Ennis Taylor Dieng played their socks off Coppinger had a mare.. thought we deserved something but wasnt to be! Ref was awful aswell!

@BigBenjani: Sunderland were awful but we were worse!! So lightweight and lacking ideas. Big changes needed!

@superryandunphy: That’s the biggest difference from last season. We are far far too “nice”

@JohnLeslieCoyl1: I don't wish to add further to the gloom at #DRFC but we are now 16th and only seven points above the relegation places. Not where I expected us to be. Worst home performance of the season too.

@daniel_nice7: It was always going to be a tough game today after the exerts of Boxing Day. Say what you like about #safc but they have a good squad, including 3 strikers all capable of getting 20 goals at the level

@Donny_Rovers: I can see why DM would be keen to find the positives in a poor performance but the lack of consistency from us at the minute just proves we need a serious reshuffle in January!
