Lass in Costa at Eldon bus station just told me she thinks we'll struggle as Zaha is back for Southampton and...you know... Roy's under pressure.

My Fulham mate is furious why we didn't let them have Mitro back in August or they must be top of the table already. On the other hand he is very pleased they dodged Gayle. Eh? It's almost like last season never actually happened. Or maybe it's like one of them is a developng youngster and the other has reached his peak. It's just a 6 month loan we're talking about, surely they want the player at their peak now?

Reckon we'll draw and be shitting ourselves for a few weeks.

Exactly. Another season of this would be glorious. Arguably better if we stay up, keep them in shitlimbo. Well yes, us staying up would be preferably regardless of what they do.

They should loan him to Fulham.

Nail on the head. Same reason why Mbemba isn't getting a proper go imo.

Glad he's scoring, should have plenty clubs queuing up for him at the end of the season

Or he's just gradually getting back into the swing of things after the worst injury of his career and people are overreacting.

Tim Krul came through our academy too.

Any Newcastle fan with an ounce of sympathy for Ashley is fucking bat shit insane.

Unsure if I can be arsed to reply.

Sunderland are anything but lucky 5 points adrift with an massively inferior goal difference to Barnsley and Hull. I know people say it's only 2 wins, but that's a huge ask for them. No doubt they'll win and others around them will too. Seems to have been the theme of the season so far.

So they were fined because the tifo also displayed the name of their ultras, who I assume have done some naughty shit in the past.

3 wins keeps us up imo, so this would be huuuuuuuuuge. Really looking forward to it but it's not one you'd like to try and call with the erratic nature of both teams. Nervous, but looking forward to it

Caulkin - Obvious James Richardson - Could sit and listen to him all day Atherton - Had his book a few years ago and it was a great read. I rarely disagree with anything (cricket related) he has to say. I actually don't mind Kyle Martino, but the majority of UK journos / TV personalities are dribbling messes.

I just burst out laughing :|

Them staying up with no takeover happening would be pretty funny though. Another year of scraping around the rim of the seat whilst their stature dimishes even further sounds like it might drive a few of the knuckledraggers over the edge.

Didn't he buy in when they were fucked a couple of years ago?

It doesn't matter what the other teams around them are doing if they continue to lose and draw every now and then they'll be down regardless imo. Even if they do stay up can anyone actually see them retaining / adding any sort of quality to their squad in the summer? It'll be even worse for them next year if they stay up.

2-0 Fulham, guess who hasn't scored.
