Disco Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Still don't reckon he's a good manager and they've had a very favourable run of games (home to Blackburn, Swansea, Norwich and away to Wigan, QPR). Things will go back to normal soon. Still though, under Bruce there is 0% chance they'd have taken points from all those. Credit where credit is due and I suspect they'll draw a lot of games come the end of the season where previously they'd have lost. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 It's obviously theoretical but I'm sure I heard 5Live say that if O'Neill had been there from the start of the season, and if they'd started in the same type of form, they'd have been 3rd now.

Benwell Lad Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Just seen their highlights 2 good goals, Sessengon is in form. The stadium looked half empty, considering the number of free tickets they shell out and kids for a quid etc, they must have amongst the lowest receipts in the league. Nile Quinn needs to get himself whoring around the local pubs and clubs again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 http://t.co/gytR805O NETD 2012. Where's that Sunderand fans pic again? Great form, but can't believe were up there, win the game in hand and only 3pts off the most in form team in the division, and were playing shite.

BlueStar Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 http://t.co/gytR805O NETD 2012. If, at the end of the season, they try to pull "NETD since St Martin took over" remind them that means we're NETDs since Shearer took over in our relegation season because we both got four points over those last 8 games but we have a goal difference of -6 to their -12. If their time under Bruce doesn't count, neither does ours under Kinnear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 WTF how are they eighth all of the sudden? Where did they come from? Look at the table though its pretty close, Swansea in 14th are only 3 points behind them..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 they've been great recently tbf, looked solid yet still a chance up front, will beat us i reckon and finish just behind us. O'Neil has been a massive leap forward by them, just wonder how much money Bruce has left them with... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 Even if the form since O'Niell took over continues, with us averaging 1.63 points per game and them 2.11,it would take them about 20 games to catch us and there's, what, 15 left? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
