Good result for us

I know I'm probably being too negative. After our win at Norwich I just hoped they'd have another Bournemouth type home game v Swansea then lose to city. To see them win one and do decent in the other just has me anxious, we've been kicked in the balls that often you wouldn't be a Sunderland fan if you didn't at least half think "be typical if these ***** end up pulling it out of the bag". A point probably was about fair but like I say their one goal shouldn't have counted, they didn't come really close many other times and when the assistant showed five minutes I was more anxious they'd win it than think "gerrin, they'll concede here". Just been texting my mate and saying if Liverpool do their job I'll feel much happier, and I'll be positively delighted when one of the two games I can just see them getting 6 points from ends up in a draw/ defeat

Agree with most of what you've said, as I usually do, but Newcastle have sometimes pulled these performances out at home, even under McClaren.

They've been poor away and I can't see them finding Liverpool so slack at the weekend tbh.
 
They had that before the game and they've just dropped 2 points' in a home game' with only 2 left.

If Man City had hammered them then they might have been curtains for them with such a mentally weak side, this keeps their mood positive about staying up.

Any points against Man City are a bonus.

Correct.

It seems people are forgetting we had a great win on Saturday. If we do what we need to do it won't matter what they do.

And if we did what we needed to every game Leicester would be a distant runner up.

And if Newcastle had won they'd have been flying ....... I'll take them dropping 2 home points and staying 2nd bottom.

Yeah, I've seen nothing to assume they'll be better away than they have been, just hope Liverpool don't play the kids. And if I'm giving them the win v palace because they're at home then maybe I should accept that villa will have no pressure and have the players to get a one off win. Plus, even if they do get 9 points from their last 4, we've been canny so there's no reason why we can't get 8 from our 5. We're still in the better position but like I say I always fear a kick in the balls. Why couldn't they have just had a frustrating draw v Swansea and an expected defeat to city, 3 points less and they'd be gone now
 
I'm fairly certain that a piss poor Aston Villa side who "roll over for everyone" took a point at St James Park
I'm not too disappointed but Liverpool need to be at the races. Newcastle were all huff and puff with very little quality. If that had have been us numerous posters would have blasted the result but because it's them......
Dependant on what happens at Anfield, Sunday could be a bonus game for us, we may as well go all out for it
@dangermows ??
 
Me fatha just said the same thing

If we were effectively 2 points behind, played a game more, only 2 home games left and possible Champions showing up on the last day I'd be worried.

Even if Newcastle get an unexpected point at Liverpool they'd still be 2nd bottom with 3 games to go.

You are favourites to stay up but this is a disappointing result for Sunderland, most people were predicting Man City to smash them all over the place.

Man City might have finished them off tonight but didn't.
