    Well here we go again, down to the penultimate game of the season where we can seal our survival.
    West Brom two seasons ago and Arsenal last season, You can't say we haven't got experience in this situation.

    To say I'm Nervous; Anxious; Edgy is an understatement. but tinged with excitement at the same time.

    i think if we can go into the game on the back of the Chelsea win with confidence; total team togetherness and fight the game is there for the taking. Yes this is Sunderland so never seems to work that way. So I'm not going to predict; what do you canny lot think?

    I'm in Oz so will be up at 4.30am to cheer on the lads from afar. Interested to know where other fellow Sunderland fans will be watching the game.

    If you're going to the game let's hear ya in Oz... :) It sounded amazing on TV against Chelsea and a few of my Oz mates where impressed at the passion and noise.

    Keep the faith lads and lasses; let's hope we're all dancing in the streets by 6.30am tomorrow....!!!

    I've got a massive week in work so will likely be in bed for the game. Will struggle to get to sleep and then go into a blind panic when I wake up and check the score.

    Fingers crossed.

    Well done mate, best wishes. Marriage can and should be the greatest decision you'll ever make. It can also suck, but I'll not go there. Neither will you.

    Perth here, 0245 game for me. Even worse than a 0445 game. Always the worst ****ing times for me :( I will either sleep through it, and resist all temptation in checking the scores and watch the match on demand afterwards when I wake up, or say **** that and check the score before I watch... or just get up. But 0245 is a **** time to wake up. Especially when I don't get to sleep until 2300 or there abouts :/

    And congrats Disco, just do yourself a favour, and don't support Collingwood ;)

    My Everton mate coming over to watch with me. He pretends that he wishes us well. He doesn't. Sneaky bastard. Known him 25 years. Drinking and fighting on the agenda.

    He does. It seems to get stronger with the passage of time. He's convinced he's a lad. He's not. Stories of the "great Everton teams of the 80s" forthcoming. Always the same. My mate nonetheless.
