We haven't made a big thing about not being rivals. Cloth heed

As in saying we’re not rivals anymore? Atleast 50 posts a day about how we’re not Newcastle United anymore and just a sport washing vehicle so no longer rivals

Yous went down to Bournemouth the other week fully expecting to turn them over with ease and got out fought

I don’t think many people expected that when they saw the team sheet lol, our worst time for injuries was then

I mean I’m not giving us no chance but we will need everything to go our way but your logic here is miles off. Your current squad cost about 550m quid, ours was about 25m. PSG would need a squad that cost about 10billion quid to be the same sort of gap. Plus when you get round the figures yous have been spending it should be proper high end players, players that can be close to equals of players who cost 10m or so more. You’re likely going to be playing a left winger who cost 160 times more than the right back he in up against. Apart from Dubvrka, is there a player in your squad who you paid money for you didn’t cost at least treble the most expensive player in our squad?

I think you’ll give it a good go definitely, and yeah we’re beatable.
I don’t think you’ll be up for it more than we will be. Tbh our greatest asset currently is our workrate, commitment and team spirit. Vast majority of clubs have struggled to match that so unsure if you’ll be able to ?
I’ve not seen a great lot of SAFC so unsure of your team spirit and work rate etc or if it’s a major strength of yours.

We've a big group of young determined players. And a few local lads who will know what this match means.

You'll have the likes of Bruno pretending to know what it means as he's desperate to be loved by your fans. Likes of longstaff will drill exactly what it means into the majority of your players I'm sure.

I’m unsure, who’s the most expensive player in your squad ??

At home you're a top side who are very difficult to beat. However, away from home you have been very poor such as the defeats to Brighton and Bournemouth.

This match can go either way as form goes out the window for derby games.
 
Even rivalry aside, Sunderland beating this Newcastle team would be one of the biggest upsets in English football over the last decade. One of the great fa cup upsets.

This newcastle team are a great side, and will probably finish 4th again.

Sunderland have some good players including Clarke who can cause problems, but it will need a major performance from SAFC to pull off a giant killing.

Burnley best Sheffield united 5-0. Wouldn't be reading much into beating Sheffield united. Is there any team that hasn't beat them this season ?

Wouldn’t read much into an 8-0 win ok lol. They are shit but the premier league is still levels above the championship.

Also though yeah we have been poor away from home but the only really poor game was Brighton and they’re a good side. Bournemouth was jsut injuries getting to much for us

I’m not arsed if there from Benwell or Barbados to be honest. Last night we had 6 English and 5 foreign and once again to a man, they individually put in an unbelievable shift.
Personally I’d rather have Bruno in the team over local lad Elliot Adamson. They’re both 100% grafters, but Bruno has the quality.
Like I say, our greatest strength currently is our commitment and workrate. Very very few sides have struggled to match that.
