The Official Sunderland thread

No probably about it, it will definately go to the last day. At least I'll be in England for the last day so no watching on dodgy internet streams for once for me.

My current prediction is Norwich down, us finishing on 36 points and Newcastle also finishing on 36 points but having a worse goal difference.

They might beat Villa 10-0, that'd be just our luck

It'll be all over a week on Wednesday for us unfortunately. Mags win at Villa coupled with 2 defeats for us.
Hope I'm wrong but that's the way I see it panning out.
Ideal scenario would be we win all our games as do Norwich and Palace lose all theirs

Good to see our old boys showing some spirit


Good luck chaps

Brilliant just brilliant.
Great fighting spirit.

[Axionknight]

A great fight back and the team really piled the pressure on in the second half, a victory well deserved despite a few clangers in the first half.

Cattermole shouldn't be allowed on a football pitch, absolutely clueless, he gave the ball away for fun.

Get the fk in!!!!!

Bed time, I left the house at 6:30am, and I'm just home - a long but exciting day and of course a fantastic result.

Plus John Terry getting the dunt was amazing

Looks like you boys have dodged the bullet yet again! Would have liked to see both you and Newcastle survive but that was always unlikely and the Barcodes now look doomed after the results on Saturday....

[Axionknight]

It isn't over just yet, I'm not celebrating until it's nailed on.

Knowing our mob we will roll over for Everton and have to take it to the last game of the season. I hope that doesn't happen but there could be a few twists and turns yet.

Can't believe you won't manage at least 2 points from your last two games and if you do that will be good enough given your superior goal difference. After Newcastle's recent improvement under Benitez I was really surprised they didn't manage to beat Villa on Saturday but for them the real damage was done earlier in the season; I'm not an advocate of sacking managers prematurely but it does look like they kept faith with McClaren for a bit too long (not that Sunderland will be complaining!).

[Axionknight]

Yeah, they should have binned him months earlier. The cash they spent in January, some eighty million, wasn't invested in the best possible way either IMO.

In an ideal world we would both stay up and Palace and Norwich would sink instead, but sadly one of us has gotta' fuggin' go.
