    Just his tweet yesterday : "ConnorWickham10 Connorwickham10
    good day training today! ready for the game tomorrow.. looking forward to my first sunderland v newcastle experience..."

    Poor lad, bet he didn't think his first NE derby experience would be do nothing when he comes on and lose at home.

    But then again....... Its a cruel world <laugh>

    I think Sunderland playing 4-4-1-1 with two attacking players that aren't very strong was playing into our CB's hands. We dominated Gyan and Bent over the course of the last 3 derby games.

    It's target men they need. Jones and Bent were a perfect pair. Jones was a lot harder to handle.

    Think thats a little bit harsh. You have to remember he has a strike rate of 1 in 6 from the Championship.....

    So in this much tougher league, he could score the same as most goalkeepers in a season! What a bargin for 13 mil. What was Quinn smoking when he thought that was a good deal <laugh>

    They needed height and left him on the bench then brings him on a substitutes him for Larrson who could pick him out with crosses. Bruce Clueless <laugh>

    Has to be something stronger. That's the same as Javier Hernandez, Peter Odemwingie and Shane Long put together :O

    Actually.... Thinking about it, that's ridiculous! Javier Hernandez, Peter Odemwingie and Shane Long vs Connor Wickham at the same cost? Who the hell is Sunderland's chief scout?? and why does he hate them so, to waste all their money. It may be Ameobi making these decisions for them <laugh>

    He's a potential player but £13 Mill over the top for him, wonder how long Brucie had to stay there with his trousers around his ankles <laugh>

    To young and inexperienced for the EPL just yet, so for them to bepinning their hopes on him is a joke

    Whickham made the wrong choice when he decided to move to the mackems. He should have waited a few years or waited to see if Arsenal or someone bigger came in for him.

    That Colbeck lad seems canny though, was abit worried about him being out in the sun for too long..
