Has anyone noticed that for the last few years Sunderland do crap all year, bring in a new manager, then beat Newcastle and just about scape their way to safety. 3 years in a row now.

And I'm sure they'll do the same again this year - before quite probably yet another new manager comes in.

They've got three more very winnable home games, and given that Stoke and Everton have nothing to play for, away trips there could well bring them success too. On the other hand, Leicester are in massive trouble, Hull have a very difficult run-in, and I really would not want to be in the shoes of the loser of Villa-QPR on Tuesday (if there is one) given what they both then have to come.

It's a shame that they'll probably stay up really. Sides like them and Villa really deserve to go down in my book; neither are exactly an underdog punching above their weight, and neither seem capable of moving away from being a relegation fighter. Get rid of them, let fresh blood have a go (ala Burnley this season).
