So based on that 45 minutes, Howe has got it all right and Almiron and Burn have played well. The next 45 minutes will determine whether Howe got it all wrong and Almiron and Burn are absolute dog dirt

Aye so that's a free kick

We're class.

Let's be realistic, even with all of the injuries, we should still be beating arguably the best team in the world.

The one positive of global warming is it will hopefully put an end to the notion that Newcastle is a baron cold wasteland.

My left back

Crazy to think if Laura Woods lowered her standards she could have a chance with me if I wanted so.

Can we make the Sunderland match thread a safe haven for those who won't see getting beat as the end of the world.

Clear from the line up its one of those games inwhich we'll either win, draw or lose and the reaction will match accordingly

No Joelinton, Barnes or Tonali?

Don't be so pessimistic

We'll smash these lot, if not we'll get beat.

It's just as bad coming from the Gateshead side. Running every 20 minutes by the looks of things and only going as far as the Haymarket.

Would highly recommend getting an earlier Metro as they're already chaos

That article has been up for nearly 12 hours now and Bruno still hasn't come out and denied it. Does him and Ashworth even care about the club!?

Aye, if you completely ignore what they came out with just over 24 hours ago, showing that the club continues to grow off the pitch, which is what we need to grow on it, then it's clear there's not much difference between this lot and Ashley.

When you really think about it, has much changed in the past 10 years?

Half of 31 also isn't 12.

Triple H tore his quad and successfully defended his tag team championship. Joelinton tears his quad and he won't defend this great city. Footballers, man.

Miggy to go one better and get a hat trick infront of a global audience.

Worrying.
