That was a rant about nothing, after a european game a club is granted 48 hours without a game. No complaints here.
Similar to SAFC83 in that we play better at their place except i am expecting us to win 2-1 and the mags to invade the pitch.
To be fair a lot can happen between now and the derby. We both have big games to worry about before that one and potential injuries and suspensions that could affect the outcome of that game have not yet been revealed.
Your not alone, I always go with the thought that worse case its a draw. You are having a bad run of it but that means nothing in the derby it's a one off.
Tbh i couldnt give a **** About the mags game! we need to concentate on the game on sunday ATM then one game at a time.. Finishing Above Newcastle is well over rated. It would only ever be great if we finished Above them And won the league, Anything else means **** all..
I always expect to win the derbies. If we get beat **** it, so what! It gives them craaaing rights for a few weeks, lets not forget they have very few other things to craa about.
Sorry but to say the local squabbles mean nothing is baffling. Every derby game in every city on earth means everything to fans mate, regardless of status and leagues. If you can't get passionate about the derby games then what's the point? I love and hate them with equal measure.
atm they mean nothing to me, we need to secure premier league football first of all, if we beat newcastle and get relagated i wont be happy will you??
According to the SAFC web site still a Saturday kick off! Sky still have us playing Saturday as well!
A lot can change over the next few weeks. I think the mags will get beat off Wigan then they travel to man city where they will get beat. They are too light up front. But have a really good midfield which is now missing cabaye. Massive game for us tomorrow, & with the fans behind us I'm confident we will win. We will then need to win two games for the rest of the season so will survive, just, mags not much further up & knocked out Europe in semis. We will probably get beat in the derby but would be happy with an away point & is achievable. It will come down to bottle, & a bit of luck, all the measures to win a derby.
