    `Tis a big, big game´ for us too
    In the words of Martin O´Neill,
    Where a win would almost see us through
    To the points where our place it was sealed

    But wins have been in short supply
    Although points have been coming in,
    With our form from the last six ties
    Four draws and an Everton win

    And I guess a draw here again
    Would suit us more than it would you,
    As both our teams look not to end
    Down in the relegation queue

    But I must admit I´d not seen
    Your lot being down quite this low,
    So what´s been going on in between
    The games where you put on a show

    And what of your January recruit
    Mr. Graham, I ask because,
    When against us and when he shoots
    Then sadly he generally scores

    But I noticed he´s still to find
    The net since returning your way,
    So I´m sure that we wouldn´t mind
    If he continued that on Sunday

    And last year´s 0 - 3 on your patch
    I remember well as a game,
    Where we were totally outmatched
    And came home with our heads in shame

    So if we could avoid a repeat
    Of that quite forgettable day,
    And perhaps too, keep a clean sheet
    Then who knows what might come our way.

    Hoping for a good, free-flowing game, but under the circumstances expect it to be a bit cagey, and probably tight, finding it hard to see past a draw I must admit. All the best :)

    Nice one mate <laugh>

    I pray for a repeat of last year's game!

    Atmosphere will be very tense, a good start for either side will be crucial. We, however have grown into the habit of starting like dog **** then playing well in the second half (you'll remember from earlier this season...)

    If we get an early goal, i.e within first 20 minutes I think we should win, provided the goal was the opening goal.

    In reality that probably won't happen, though, this game will be very tight. I'm not ****ed about how we play, we can have only 1 shot for all I care as long as we win.

    Yep, I remember the home game against you, you were like chalk and cheese, actually you very nearly came away with a draw. What kind of reception do you think Hughton will get as an ex- Toony?

    The way our team are playing
    A lot of Mackems are saying
    We take what ever we can
    We have no other plan,

    As for this player DG
    A Geordie by choice is he
    We haven't seen much of him to cheer
    But he scores for us I'd get him a beer.

    We would have if Kilgallon didn't miss an open goal <wah>

    Not a friendly one, I'm sure! Probably just be restricted to jeers as he comes out the tunnel

    I won't be jeering Hughton, I think he's a really respectable bloke.

    I know it´s a different siuation, but I don´t remember him getting much flak from your away lads when we met earlier in the season., and you´re right Safc, he does come across as being very respectable.
