Meanwhile, North East neighbours Newcastle are set to rekindle their interest in Per Ciljan Skjelbred once his loan spell at Hertha Berlin ends.

 

:lol: :lol:

 

For what it's worth, he's been bossing it at Hertha Berlin. Wouldn't surprise me if that rumour came back if it weren't for Hertha Berlin being a German club, not a French one.

What the fuck has happened to him at Villa?

 

This?

 

Really thought he was class for us, had so much talent and seemingly the brain to do something with it. Never hear of him any more and he must be what, 27?

I randomly follow him on Instagram. Judging by his photos on there, playing football is the last thing on his mind.

 

Shit load of pictures of him playing lawn bowls? He won't be the first and certainly won't be the last dammit!

After Will Buckley and Liam Bridcutt from Brighton according to the telegraph. Had enough if dem forrins I guess

 

Oh, my gaffer wont be happy (Brighton fan).

 

Still, maybe Keith Lemon will veto them in favour of signing more Johnny Foreigners, and it will all kick off.  :iamatwat:

It's not clear cut but I haven't seen anything from them that suggests to me they'll stay up.

 

could be wrong but didn't they have the worst start in PL history?  from that point they've fought to within a win of getting out of the bottom 3

 

they look like they can give anyone a game at home as well, players and crowd always seem up for it there

 

away form will be key

Their 3 wins have been single-goal "spirited" victories against top 8 teams, backs against the wall, relying on the other team missing chances and being vaguely solid. They've shown a total lack of quality and creativity to beat teams around them when the onus is on them to go and attack.

 

Something major will have to change for them not to go down. They're awful.

very few teams escape by being quality to be fair, not sure that beating teams higher up the table should be seen as such a bad thing vs. the usual route of winning 6 pointers and such

 

i think they'll stay up...IP has listed 10 home games they might reasonably expect to win, i reckon they'll win about half of them and take some points away from home to scrape

 

might depend who they sign/sell of course

But that's the point, dude. They've not beaten a single team around them this year. Why is that about to change?

 

Granted, they've had some hard home games so purely by the law of averages they'll eventually win a couple. But to win the amount they need to win, I can't see it, especially given there is absolutely no sign of them picking up a few wins away from home - their one win being a gift against 10 men, and even then they were second best for much of the game.

 

I think part of the mentality here might be that people just assume Sunderland won't go down as it's too good to be true for a Newcastle fan. Really, they're total turd and need a massive turnaround to accrue the points they'll need.
