Has a pre season feel about it, not that it matters.

" Sunderland going down and Newcastle going up" being belted out. ??

Clark our best player going forward as well.

This would literally be my least favourite transfer ever...... 14m NUFC 360 @NUFC360 According to CalcioMercato in Italy, Rafa Benitez and #NUFC are keen to bring Moussa Sissoko back to St. James' Park in a cut-price deal.

A no for me...... http://www.football-italia.net/101745/santon-heading-back-newcastle

It was probably him who tipped them off, gets a transfer ban, knows Rafa will walk and welcomes back Pards.

Boro vs Sunderland on TV?

Twitter people saying SSN are reporting Charnley's house being raided.

Probably get a transfer ban at the least, probably Ashley who tipped them off.

Anyone sum up what has happened, just got in from work and saw the headlines?

Automatically possibly, not if you include play-offs certainly. Burnley and Hull both did it last season. Yeah automatically they were on about.

Huge relief, massive weight lifted, especially considering how difficult the league will be next year.

Think Llorente would be a perfect signing for us.

Scenes if Mitro scores the winner.

Poyet s*** himself in Palace's dressing room before play off 4 years ago. Goes back way before that https://www.theguardian.com/football/football-league-blog/2011/sep/27/brighton-crystal-palace-rivalry ?? Cheers.

Nope, he's hopeless. Would take Llorente if Swansea go down though.

Probably wrong thread, but why do Brighton and Palace fans hate each other? (Brighton fans singing Crystal Palace were coming for you).

He's been poor since coming back from his ban, hardly surprising though, his whole career has been inconsistent which is why he is playing in the championship with us.

Think this result will depend on the Huddersfield Fulham match. If Huddersfield slip up I reckon we will get the win, if not then a draw at best.

Clark should be back according to Ryder.

Is there any reason Boro never replace Karanka? Pretty much accepted relegation by not getting someone in.

Whenever him and Ritchie start together we have been shocking, better to leave him on the bench and hope for an impact. Hopefully him and Gouff will be nowhere near Newcastle next season, whatever division that may be in.

The two worst changes were Mbemba and Mitrovic (unless they were carrying injuries), both had decent games and Friday and would have surely had some confidence coming in for the first time this season, plus they have hardly played so certainly wouldn't have been tired.

They do well until they get near the box and they then have zero to offer.
