    Well we are definitely one of the 4 or 5 best teams in the division.
    Hopefully we're better than 2 or 3 ;)

    You've just got to hope there are 3 teams worse than you in yours <laugh>

    The thread title says we were.

    You're not in the same predicament? You're not even in the same division.

    Another playoff heartbreak for you I reckon

    The sooner we sack Bruce, the better chance we have of survival. And if we keep Wilson fit. Teams with goalscorers don't usually go down

    They won't even make the playoffs come May

    They're getting carried away its early in the season and deep down they know it'll end in failure one way or the other.

    Regardless of the thread title we were discussing the derbies and the want or not of seeing one or the other fold.
    I think although a possibility for any club if things go bad, shìt owners etc. We're both big enough clubs to stave it off easier than some.
    We've been there now and come through, Wolves, Leeds and Man city also.
    Disappointing you'd like to see us fold Woy old boy but never mind.

    As for our predicament,.
    Well we're working hard to put that right.
    How's your plans going ?

    How's our plans going?

    We're 2 leagues above you so I'd say they're going nicely quite frankly

    Hilarious

    Sunderland fans see it as one league between us not 2 leagues behind.

    Thankyou you've just made my ****ing day with that one Nigel <laugh>

    Can't you two see what I posted about telling yourselves things to soothe your plight?

    To see nig posting saying there's one league between us rather than the fact you're two leagues behind?

    This isn't just you two it's something fans in general do, but unfortunately I just say it like it is and you know this because I e been telling nufc fans a few truths this morning haven't I?


    You've got to tell yourselves these things but it doesn't alter the reality that nufc have a major advantage over your club right now.

    You see Woy, there is one division between us.
    We are at the very top of ours.
    And you are very nearly bottom of yours.
    So we are doing everything right and your struggling.
    Everything could change dramatically at the end of the season.
    But regardless, I'm certainly enjoying winning regular games.
    How's your weekly thrashings ?

    You just don't get it do you

    I've repeatedly tried to explain the way your brain is performing mental gymnastics to soothe your plight.

    The fact you're looking at it in light of being one division between us instead of 2 below is exactly what I mean.

    It's like when an idiot in a call centre says the words 'IT'S ONLY'

    I'm giving you a lesson in how your own brain works here
