1-0 would do me

i would be amazed if they win at our place. a draw is possible but far more likely for us to win and i really think we will win comfortably
Thing is with derby games the old saying of form book out of window is I feel very true. Nobody would have predicted the manner in which we won 5-1, you were bang on form and our home record is shite. On the day we wanted it more and the atmosphere pretty much got to your players.
Come January your players really really owe you one for that defeat and unless its an absolute hammering most Newcastle fans will not be to gutted as the 5-1 will always be a big consalation.
I do think that yous will obviously be favourites come January but you dont know how this young team will adapt again. The pressure to try and salvage something after the 5-1 could be too much of a weight on some young shoulders and they could hide again. I doubt it and I feel it will be a traditional blood n guts derby with a close scoreline
Did you see any of their game on saturday? Barton is capable of passing it about a bit, but without him at the weekend they were f***ing horrible to watch. Long hoof up to the greasy pikey everytime.
I pray your right Jack I'm not that confident. I'ts the attitude of people like Angstrom I find hard to understand, how can being 12 points clear of them atone for them doing the double over us? (unless it means they're relegated)
Neither of us has done the double over the other for decades and if they do it this season I couldn't give a fuck how high we finish, the only thing that could wipe that out would be for us to win the cup.
The 2002/3 and 2005/6 seasons were not decades ago.
All in my opinion of course - but why are so many people unwilling to give Newcastle any credit for their performance against us? I believe that their performance merits some credit, but surely their 5 - 1 victory over us was as freakish as our 3 - 0 victory over Chelsea?
We were convincingly beaten by the Mags. Chelsea were convincingly beaten by us. If the Mags deserve no credit for hammering us, why should we deserve credit for hammering the reigning champions?
Because Chelsea on an off day are normally good enough to beat 90% of the teams in the premier. Sunderland on an off day would be hard pushed to beat anyone in the premier.
