Its makes you wonder how/why we didnt dominate when coming down from the Championship with the likes of McGeady, Catrermole and Oviedo in the team, "the biggest budget the league had ever seen" and 30k+ crowds every home game.
How did manage to waste that opportunity man?

I do think that year was particularly strong mind, Luton, Barnsley and Charlton all had good squads that have gone on to better things.

There has been bigger. Manchester City and Leeds spring immediately to mind, but if this continues another season, yes, Sunderland will be a case study for fallen giants.

I remember Wolves in the 4th tier mind a few seasons after being in the top flight.
 
Doncaster and Accrington winning are the stand out results tonight. Those two and Fleetwood are making a run at the play off positions. 2-3 weeks ago they weren’t.
Difficult to keep track of who are making a run for play off positions. Blackpool were previously and are closer to the bottom three compared to the play offs.
 
Precisely, not a Parky apologist but the points per game of 2 through 9 is similar. Two wins for Sunderland would be back on track for automatic promotion. It’s that close. To listen to some on here you would think the league has gone.

Yes
The fixtures are also OK after Friday until mid January. If we can avoid defeat at Highbury then the outlook may not be bad. We are turgid and awful but so were Bolton when he got them up.

Man City bounced straight back. Mind, they weren't the Man City of today, they were a club much more like SAFC.
 
Swansea went from fifth bottom of league 2 to the premier league, won the league cup and played in europe

burnley were one game from going out of the league altogether iirc

safc will go back again. When, who knows but it will happen
