The more I think about this, the more disastrous it would be for the Mackems if they do go down in terms of their squad and prospects for future retun to the Prem.

Goalkeepers
Mannone - will prpobably be poached by a Prem / European team
Westwood - will be out of contract
Ustari - don't know much about him, but on loan so will want to return.

Defenders
Dossena - on loan, so will probably return
Alonso - on loan, so will probably return
Brown - will be hitting 35 (and he's sh**e)
Celustka - on loan, so will probably return
O'Shea - 33 and also sh**e
Bardsley - will be out of contract
Cuellar - will be out of contract
Vergini - on loan, so will probably return
Roberge - will he stay in the championship? is he good enough?


Midfielders
Ki -on loan, so will probably return
Larsson - will be out of contract
Gardner - will be out of contract
Colback - will be out of contract
Ba - he's no Demba
Bridcutt - will be decent
Cattermole - likely to stay

Attacking Midfielders
Johnson A - likely to be poached by Prem club
Giaccherini - will he want to stay in the championsip?
Scocco - don't know enough about him.
Mavrias - don't know enough about him


Strikers
Fletcher - will be poached
Wickham - probably right for the Championship
Altidore - will be useful in the championship
Borini - on loan, so will probably return

After that it's kids/players I've not heard of.

I bet that doesn't make easy reading for Sunderland fans.

Can't see them going down tbf
 
Has anyone noticed the reluctance of Newcastle supporters to talk about Newcastle. Most popular team without a doubt as per comments on this forum is the form team of the moment SUNDERLAND just goes to show success breeds success
 
That thread on their board about the attendance is comedy gold...
Well worth a read.
Someone has scoured the archives to dig out a sub 16,000 crowd for us, when we were in the Championship playing Plymouth in the third round of the cup to help console themselves (which we still recognise as a ****e turnout of course... no arguments).
There mod Mush was spot on with his point, it's just a shame the usual 'over sensitives' hop on board the beel bus so easily.

Help.. can someone translate this please?
It may as well be written in Mandarin (no Fredor I don't mean the citrus fruit before you get the tin opener out and try).
 
Maybe we are clutching at straws but come on its the FA cup and if it was us you would be taking the pee. What l can't stand are fans like my neighbour who never goes to games or even the pub to watch Mackems but him and his brother have been promised tickets through a business contact.

Agreed. Regardless of club, it amazes me how many 'fans' suddenly join the queue for tickets without giving a hoot the rest of the year... it was the same for our two cup finals. I had mates who chucked their ST years before suddenly giving it the 'I used to have a ST ticket therefore I'm entitled to a ticket'..

You live in a funny old area though don't you. At least 50/50.

I've had a bit of "input" on that one. <laugh>

They're like DLT victims. You hear Nowt from them for 40 years, then they all pipe up together.

He's a passionate lad, gotta say.
The trigger this time was a poster having the temerity to point out that all he talks about is:
-fighting
- his rich friends / money
- how he lives in Nice
- how 'connected' he is
