Just like they should have had credit for how they could have beat Man U, even though they didn't. Or how their players are better on paper, even if they're not on the pitch. Even if they don't get these guys as managers, it's a massive one over on us just because they might have done.

8 entries to the work prediction league so far (all non-geordies) only one guy has put us down for a loss.

Good performance on the back of Bruce going, Eric Black given the job on a permanent basis

He'll never get to play his song

Fingers crossed they have no-one lined up and end up with a permanent caretaker ala Steve Keane. Who's been spotted on the train to Sunderland so far then? Mourinho? Ancelloti?

Keep expecting to see threads like "Is there anything at all to lol about Man City"

Can't wait to hear him try and do the Mackem accent.

Do teams still sing that "The football league is upside down" song? Maybe the mackems could revive it.

Kind of parted on bad terms with Everton and got dogs abuse every time he played against them though.

:lol: :lol: still? they STILL think they have better players!? How is this possible, how... Look it's simple, Gardener cost twice as much as Tiote, so Tiote is only half as good. Did they not larn you mag kernts maths in school?

Mint, it's time for song writing day in the special school showbiz class http://www.readytogo.net/smb/showthread.php?t=648411 Hope to see some cleaming jewels by the end of it Fighting amongst themselves because they don't like each others songs as well

Already starting to slag off the Europa League as a shit competition for wankers that they didn't want to be in anyway, just in case

FORMER Newcastle United football manager Gary Speed was found hanged at his home by his wife, an inquest was told today. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/north-east-news/breaking-news/2011/11/29/inquest-told-wife-found-gary-speed-hanged-72703-29862134/#ixzz1f6zYmrkT

Steve Bruce to learn his fate at Sunderland within next 48 hours • Steve Bruce to meet Sunderland owner Ellis Short • Niall Quinn's influence could save manager from axe http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2011/nov/28/steve-bruce-fate-sunderland Will Niall retain his sainthood if he subjects the mackems to more Brewcie performances?

Almost hope they get something against Wolves to give him more time.

Charlton wear red an all, like...

He'll be seen at Sunderland International before the night is out.

You missed out the option of Ancelloti, Rafa or O'Neill taking them to European glory.

Man U didn't originally have as high a "respect towards referees" rating, but 8 of them chased the ref into a corner in the dressing room till he changed it.

Anyway, back on topic... @George Caulkin: Steve Bruce leaving rumours: not true. Rafa and O'Neill came all that way for nothing

John O'Shea believes making the Stadium of Light a fortress will be a key factor in Sunderland retaining their top-flight status. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11661/7337766/ Good plan

Sustained. Absolute nonsense. Hang on, Ferguson questioning the status of his part-time job doesn't give rise to his primary profession? Yeah, right. Yes, that's right. What he does as his primary profession, unless it is football related, has no bearing on whether Ferguson has a right to question why we are still using part time Linesmen. Ryders tweet is Sun or Mail standard dislocated emotional wummery at its finest. Ferguson went beyond questioning why we are using part-time officials, though. That's, a really odd use of a comma. In what way?

But they don't care about that, because 9-1, 9-1, 9-1!

They were talking about how that proved how unlucky they were
