    3 away and 1 at home!

    I love being home on Boxing Day like! Always a great atmosphere.

    We have to look for a minimum of 7 points from the 4 games. Anything on new years day is a bonus.

    2 wins and a draw from the next three should be gettable. And I'm not really bothered in which game we get which.

    Another example of anti Sunderland fixture arrangements? Xmas is always a crunch period and can make or break seasons. We get 3 out of 4 away making it harder for us to pick up points.

    I thought the same but left it as I didn;t want to sound like a whinging twat!! <biggrin>

    I do agree though. 2 + 2 would've been just as easy for the fixture people to arrange. The last on against one of the biggest squads in the country as well.

    On a plus side, if we can pick up 6 or 7 points then these four games will be very useful - but that's a big if!

    six points in the next two games will be a great help:)But,why don't we get a run of "winnable games"???

    Judging from previous bunched up games, Wes will rest for either Hull or Villa. I'd rest him for Hull. Jones should be back so Santi or Coates can step in.

    Should be some rotation around those two games but we have the likes of Coates, Jones, Rodwell, Ricky, Giacch and Jozy who have fresh 'legs'
