Good results. Cardiff’s fixtures look tough. Excellent. A win against arsenal would be huge Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

St Anne's is very nice, acktchewally

They brought an awful lot of fans up from Surrey Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No but we beat them at home, and we're worse at home

Weirdly optimistic. It's very Saints to lose to Cardiff at home and then beat Arsenal away. It's how we roll.

Went to see Brighton v Derby yesterday. Take-aways: Derby didn't turn up; probably knackered by midweek game but were absolutely awful. Brighton were okay - Knockhaert pretty good, and two big defenders at the back okay. But they didn't really have to go through the gears. One of their strikers went off towards the end i think with a hammy injury, which could be good for us. Even when they let in a goal to make it 2-1 though (Ashley Cole still showing a bit of class), there wasn't that fear permeating the stadium that it was only a matter of time, that happens at SMS with our mental frailty. Quite distinct. Bruno, their old timer, is canny and experienced enough to marshall the troops, who all seem in it together. Bloody quiet fans though. Stadium's okay - better food offer than ours (pizza included), probably more reasonably priced. They'll get knocked out in the next round, though, and it might be good for us that they have another game to contend with, when they probably don't want it. I don't think they did enough to take on momemtum into their next game, but i think it is against Huddersfield, who presumably we want to get a win now. Oh yes, one last thing. WE would have beaten Brighton I reckon, so it was all the more galling that we limped out to Derby when they had a bit of energy and spirit. Oh well.

Lemina is still in bed in that medical gown. It is how he will be known.

Might Obafemi be back for the next game? Could he play a big part in our run in? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Not really looking like 4-0 to Wolves Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Told ya. Newcastle one up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

No way are Newcastle going down. Not a chance Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ralph should have played Yoshi in the second. Mistake. Unless there’s something weird going on with him again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Would be amazed if it did. Insurance bet on Newcastle win Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Playing kids in the Championship will mean League One football the year after

Cardiff are more streetwise and resilient than us; what you need in a scrap. Not looking good unless we can stop shipping goals. I think Huddersfield on the last day isn't necessarily great for a team like ours. we need to be out of the picture by then. Too many Sunderland similarities

Arup (engineers) have bought a football team? Tell me more.

Watching the Sunderland documentary, we bear all the hallmarks. Depleted squad. Squandered transfer window. A few bad eggs still just collecting wages. Good guy manager. ‘Nice’ club. Similar stadium even. Porous defence. No goalscorers. Frailty. Not looking too good for us at the moment, and quite far from ‘comfortably mid-table’ some on here predicted a short time ago Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And we play them at theirs soon. Eek Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
