    You should have made it a public poll so we can see the names.

    btw i voted Bruce in, its 1 game of our 4 game run and arguably our hardest of the lot (maybe Wolves away might be harder), but we got hammered 0-3 off them last season, so in that respect its an improvement (yes clutching at straws but **** it, got to clutch something)

    I'd argue it was the easiest, perhaps barring Wigan. Blackburn are better than the league suggests, Wolves the same, and Fulham are simply the worst team in the league when it comes to away games.

    It was the 12th game of the season and 1/3 of the season is now almost complete.

    IF we manage to beat Wigan next week we will have 14 points from 13 games and on target for 38-40 points.

    Suddenly these 4 'easy games' don't quite look so easy.

    Having played, Swansea, Norwich, Bolton, Wigan, Fulham, West Brom, Stoke and Newcastle at home we could find ourselves with a grand total of 11 points or at best 14 points.

    Bruce needs more time to prove what he has failed to display thus far as he certainly hasn't done anything in the first 12 games. The solution? Give Bruce more time! More more more! Give us more Bruce!

    Agreed......BUT......Sunderland are simply the worst team in the league when it comes to home games.

    We have exactly the same stats as Fulham, Home and Away 1 2 3 home 1 3 2 away.

    and btw Wigan is worse, so is Blackburn. 0 1 5, 0 3 2 away from home.

    I just cant see why we were expected to beat them really.

    I voted Bruce in, more a vote based on the fact I can't see us getting anyone any better rather than a vote of confidence.

    Stoke away is a game most would expect to come away with 0 points and 1 point if you are lucky.

    QPR and the toon didnt think that though, well they might have done but they didnt get that.

    its a funny old game this football lark. (we wouldnt have beat Chelsea 0-3 last season either).
