Still thnk F1 drivers. Imagine doing your job cramped up in the cockpit of an F1 car at well over 200 mph. Got to be exrtemely fit and quick thinking.

Even as a fellow Newcastle supporter that comes across to me as pretty pathetic and just sour grapes to be honest. Their effort, application and organisation deserved to get them some luck as they were brilliant today. Wish our players would have applied themselves like that in their last few matches. Well played Sunderland, great day for the fans.

Nicely said. Mon has certainly transformed the same set of players that Bruce was playing, none of us are getting carried away though but days like yesterday don't come around too often and I still have a massive smile on my face.
 
Sunderland were very very fortunte as City were far the better side, particularly 2nd half. But credit to Sunderland they stuck at it and got a slice of luck. They were royally ****ed over last week with the pen so swings and roundabouts
 
Back on topic!!!

To an extent I think Sunderland were actually quite lucky to win the game as they scored the offside goal and were territorially dominated for the whole game,
However you could argue that they deserved a good point as MON got his tactics spot on and obviously had the team well drilled.

So IMO - fortunate to win but a point would have been fair.
 
O'Neil got his tactics right yesterday. Sunderland already are looking better under him.

Goal was just offside but that's the luck of the Irish for you but well played to them.

Let's hope we get a result against Man U.

I've just saw the replay, and if he was offside it was by the width of a fanny's hair and probably wouldn't have been highlighted had it been the other way round...

I thought he was offside by quite a bit considering the small margins in the EPL these days. However I really don't begrudge you that decision, because other than the goal, the ref was hugely biast in Man City's favour (letting Yaya Toure and Lescott basically sit on top of your players to win headers)... and it evens out the abomination of a decision against Everton.

All credit to MoN, got his tactics spot on <applause>
