    Speaking to another supporter - I must say I did'nt know that till then - so query that.
    I've been out of the country for a while so thought I'd missed this news.
    Not too important - he's doing a great job so far

    According to the commentator Grayson is a huge Leeds fan just to clear that up.

    This is correct he was very open about it whilst managing them.

    There's links to Sunderland through his family or something but he is a fully confessed Leeds man.

    I'm sure he does squire, as he's a Leeds fan.

    Bit of a state of the obvious that.

    That'd do me, we should both be Prem sides mate.

    I think Boro will walk the title but the playoffs are there for us both, no question.

    Not nailed on it's a tough league, filled with average teams with a few touches of class.

    Common enemy Monk's a tw4t and Boro don't know where their roots are. It will be a good gane today but not sure about our performance with rumours abounding

    Wood is a big loss I think that's about to be confirmed, he won't play.

    I think Jansson is the best CB in the league I seen a bit of him for Torino and he looked raw but like he was going to be superb, last season when I fought your games that looked about right.

    Be a tight one of imagone but I fancy us at the minute.

    Sadly I think you could be right. If Saiz and Alioski can get their act together, they are good ball players and can score, then just maybe, If Vieira and Bridcutt or Klich are named in starting 11 then we could be going all out and there could be game on.

    Be a good competitive game I'd imagine and a good atmosphere.

    I'm trying to resist the temptation to be out for midday and **** faced by kick off but it's a beautiful day and I'm up and bored already..

    It's why I booked in a game of golf as soon as I land in durham this morning. Otherwise I'd have been on the piss since 8am on the train.... and most likely arseholed by 5

    Bit fresh air and exercise to keep me off the sauce til around 3/4pm.... I'm knackered like, so I still might get arseholed by 5!
