A slight shame they equalised but they've scraped a 1-1 at home to WBA. Rubbish. Hopefully enough to keep Moyes there though.

Interesting and not in a good way

Yeah, 2 wins from 2. It feels like infinite money right now £10 is already £35. Have you tried it?

The friend must have shocking self-esteem to sleep with that gorilla.

My first ever match was a free Sunderland one, 1997. School isn't even nearby because it's Chester-le-Street. First year of the new stadium too.

When it comes to the manager who was "caught with his hands in the till", which sackings have been out of the blue? I remember being surprised when Pearson left Leicester. Pearson, Pardew, Warnock, Pulis, Redknapp are the most obvious candidates, I wonder how many are right.

Would he call you an ostrich?

Looks like Baines and Shaw won't be playing again, so it's another week with 10 men

Accompanied by his advisor, Michel Ouazine, Ben Arfa walked across the hotel's opulent Edwardian reception area—black-and-white tile floor, elegant stone arches—and asked the concierge at the check-in desk if he could use their fax machine. Ben Arfa called the club secretary at Hull, Matt Wild, who talked the concierge through what needed to happen. A Premier League deal sheet was faxed to the hotel from Hull, Ben Arfa signed it and the concierge scanned it and sent it back by email. The paperwork dispatched, giving Hull an extra two hours to complete the transfer, Ben Arfa said thank you and returned to the slightly dilapidated black BMW parked outside. Ironically, the concierge was a Sunderland supporter. "Anyone leaving Newcastle is fine by me," he says.

Has to be him in for Diame to go up front with Gayle. That partnership will destroy a lot of teams, hope it's now clear to Rafa.

94th minute - down to a 5. 96th minute - 8.

Thrilling but fucking lucky We lost that game, in spirit. Lessons must be learnt from tonight. But holy shit! :lol:

Football, man

Momentum is our only hope

The invincibility is gone, that's for sure. We're greatly underacheiving.

Have we ever seen Gayle and Mitro together?

Well we're one goal away from football's most dangerous scoreline.

Got to think Nigel Pearson's in there too.

Seen on Twitter that his teams have conceded 302 goals in 158 LaLiga games

A lot of those are ex-Premier League, so it probably includes Colin and Rosie

This is fascinating. Can't wait to see what else they've got.

This is amazing :lol: There's something delicious about a scam artist, who we all knew was dodgy, get his dream job snatched away almost instantly. I reckon the FA want it to be Southgate til the summer, then Howe/Wenger. But if I was Howe I'd stay well away from it - he has great potential and the last thing he needs is the England job. Not Pardew because he'll surely be implicated in his investigation. Somehow.

On a train back to Newcastle during this one, gutted.

Biggest game of the season, I don't think we'll win it and dont trust us to. We cant afford to lose this, let's say 2-2.

2 for captain Aguero, 2 for Defoe, 1 for Sanchez. Annoyed that Firmino lost the 'rock paper scissors' to decide which Liverpool player runs riot this week. Shaw & Baines injured so it's only 10 men, but decent week.
