Alright lads, great win for you on Saturday, I'll be honest, I didn't see you getting anything better than a point so fair play. I'm not sure if you're aware, but Newcastle have one of the worst Novembers possible (Man Utd, Man City and Chelsea) and having looked at YOUR upcoming fixtures, you face a series of very winnable games. Now I'm not here to reignite the still smoldering BoB v BiB debate...Simply gauge how optimistic you're all feeling... Fixtures Sunderland v Aston Villa Man Utd v Sunderland Sunderland v Fulham Sunderland v Wigan Wolverhampton v Sunderland Sunderland v Blackburn With the exception of Man Utd (you'll probably play well but lose anyway) all of those games are winnable...So, what are you thinking? Has this Bolton victory helped you turn a corner or are you prepared to be driven round the bend?
I am hoping mate but naturally pessimistic. That stops me from building up my hopes & then getting a kick in the balls.
It's a cliche but there are no easy games. In saying that, I wish that had been our first 6 games rather than the ones we had. x
Cut the man some slack, It must get pretty lonely staying in a hotel every Saturday after filming MOTD...
Sunderland v Aston Villa...........................................WIN Man Utd v Sunderland..............................................DRAW Sunderland v Fulham................................................WIN Sunderland v Wigan.................................................WIN Wolverhampton v Sunderland.....................................DRAW Sunderland v Blackburn............................................WIN
Aye, certainly wouldn't say they were easy, nor would I say the 9 games we've had (that pundits are so ready to write off) were easy...But as we saw with Bolton away (tough enough game considering their upturn in form) you are capable of winning those games and the same can be said about your next lot.
If you come away unbeaten I would be massively impressed/surprised. Having said that, aside from the Manure game, none of those results would really shock the bookies!
Its a poor photo, the back of it has a solar powered duke box and inside there is a polyester mesh which cures athletes foot!
Syd, your optimism will kill you in the end. I'm sick of telling you it's no good. It's the hope I can't stand!
I rarely look past the next game...If we can beat Villa with a good performance it should lighten the mood of doom a little that his hanging around our club at present..
We are too difficult to predict at the moment. Confidence is still lacking, we improved as the game went on. Can we start where we left off? We are starting games badly at the moment.. It's fingers crossed time.
Back to back wins will certainly bring some much needed breathing space but I'm sceptical as to whether Bruce has actually leaned his lesson and will still keep the 4-4-2 and Wickham and Bendtner partnership. I can just hear him and Black telling each other that Sessegnon really is a striker now he scored a goal and reverting back to the 1 up front and pack the midfield v Villa. He wont want to lose to Bent and its thats fear of losing that pisses me off so much with him. Instead of going for the win all the time, he always wants to avoid the defeat first and foremost and this is why we are struggling and boring as **** to watch. We are 14,000 down on total capacity and probably 6,000 down from last year alone! People are simply not buying into the failing Bruce management strategy at all. That said, if he doesnt make a total arse of things, we do have a good run of fixtures for the next 6 or so games and he has a small glimmer of a chance to win some fans back. If he goes for it and falls just short then even I will give him my support. If he ****s his pants at the prospect of winning some games with an attacking formation, as per usual and buggers this next 6 games up, then I will resume my war of words with relish.
Poor attempt at being patronising by somebody who is going to spend along time in purgatory or SidJamesPark for blaspheming, just cos' you are a lucky streak does not mean your safe yet or is it CL you are aiming for.
