Sunderland Reactions (03/11/01)
Bassett on Muzzy:

"He's a fine player and we saw today, as we did at Blackburn, that he has given 100 per cent for this club. Nobody can suggest that he is selling us short....If Muzzy stays with us for the rest of the season and we stay up that will be great!"

Bassett on Ade :

"I'm absolutely delighted for him after the stick he took a couple of weeks ago and it's nice for him to be the hero today with the fans behind him and everything else. It must have been an enormous relief for him and I'm so delighted because you don't like to see people get pilloried and criticised to that degree. It's easy to criticise, he's absolutely thrilled and I'm sure he'll take all the headlines tomorrow. The players are also really pleased for him, we are a team and they recognise you've got to stick by your fellow team-mates when they are having a bad time.

Bassett on the team:

"I thought the character of the players shone through today, their attitude has been good and they've got a reward for it. I don't want to jump to conclusions, people are quick to look for instant answers, we go to Manchester United in a couple of weeks and Alex has probably been quaking watching our game today but we know how much we will be tested at Old Trafford. But this is a start, we've got four points in a week and if we can average that to the end of the season I will be delighted."

Reidy on his lot of chumps:

"I thought we started sloppy, but overall we had a lot of chances and a lot of the ball. A couple of the chances we had were really good, but we haven't hit the target and we've paid the penalty. I was disappointed with our start. I thought we came here with an attitude of 'it'll happen', but you've got to make things happen."

Ade on Ade:

"I have waited a long time for this moment and I'm going to savour it as long as I can. I've always said that when I scored that first goal many more would come and I now believe that more than ever. Hopefully this will start a flood of goals for me."

Man on No 22 bus on Ade:

"'Bout friggin time ya overpaid lump. Now get a friggin hat-trick against Man Utd or we'll friggin send you back to friggin Wolves. Or worse, to McGhoo. And tell that friggin Benjamin to stop friggin falling over whilst your at it. Friggin Donkey's the pairs of ya."
