There is no doubt Sunderland will finish higher than the mags. Once Keegan realises what he has done, he'll be out of there quicker than he was last time. Keegan, your taxi is waiting!

As the heading says, NO. Sunderland will be lucky to stay up in the Premiership and probably need to get to about 37/38/points. They'll struggle to get that many. I also do not understand this strange obsession over Roy Keane. he has spent more than £35M and got one half decent player in Jones. He's got plenty to prove before he's in Keegans class you fool. In his 3 seasons in the Premier with Newcastle, he finished 3rd 6th 2nd and was 4th when he left. Sunderland will never reach those heights. You must have been smoking something if you think the mackems can ever compete with Newcastle. Remember we missed the first season in the Premier nad have still amssed the 5th most points just behind the usual four. Keep dreaming clown!!!

what a stupid question hahaha sunderland finish higher than newcastle , will it snow in the summer?

With or without King Kev, NUFC will finish higher. Now that the messiah has returned home, we will be challenging once again for silverware. Ps Roy and his jokers could be playing Championhip football once again

"Tell all the scum you know, That we've got Quinny and we've got Keanooooooo, Kenwyne Jones will score the goals, leadbitter's better than scholes and we've got Craig Gordon in goooooaaaal.

I don't think we will finish above the mags, but it all depends on how well KK does for them. We deserved 3 points against the mags at the SoL and any honest Geordie would agree. I think we will finish 15th, but I hope it's higher obviously. We got Richardson & Gordon as well as Jones but I agree some of Keane's buys were not the best, however alot of players he wanted would not risk their season on Keane, so he panic bought Higgs & Shaggy. I predict Owen will leave in the Summer if not by the end of the month, KK will have his scouts on some players already but he needs some decent midfield.

listen to all the geordies, best fans in the world!!! my a***, lets see how smug they are when kk, doe's his usual trick and vanishes once the going gets tough, and those magnificant fans start giving him loads abuse as they always do. i hope we do as it would be nice to see keegan get the same treatment as allerdyce.....bring it on

Yes my dear Magpie friends... Mr Gripp and I do enjoy following behind the chaos of the "Curly mad eyed mullet monster" and sweeping up his mess with glee and superior results!!...So my friends get urself down to Ladbrooks and place a nice little bet that i will do the same at Newcastle once "Special needs-K" hops on another bus outta St James......without even leaving even a goodbye note!

it's a real possibility that we can finish above the mags. we have spirit in our camp as opposed to the egos in the toon camp. hence why big sam failed so miserably. keegan won nowt when he was there the first time, he wont win anything this time and i truly believe we can finish above them. and i'll win a cool £50 from my mate ;)
you having a laugh premiership your having a laugh finish higher then newcastle haha, and you say we are deluded
by David Dunn on January 17, 2008
WE BETTER FINISH ABOVE NEWCASTLE BECAUSE IF WE DONT WE WILL BE RELEGATED, PS FOR YOU THICK GEORDIES THAT MEANS YOUR GOING DOWN SO IF WERE NOT ABOVE YOU WERE GOING DOWN TO

Here we go again, he's gonna do this, he's gonna do that. Watch tha toon go now......So he got Fulham promoted out of div2, man city promoted out of div1 then finished midtable and then 16th (5th from bottom) he is out of touch with the premier league now and has always walked away when he doesn't live up to his own high expectations. As for his supposed motivational qualities, it didnt do much for the cream of england in 2000 which included another so called legend. He will spend millions, deliver nowt, walk out and then where will you be? I certainly cant see you pulling 40,000 in the championship like we were. Many forget you were on the brink of dropping into the then 3rd division with a massive 14,000 fans turning up. Yet we are accused of living on our 1973 success when you are all hanging onto 1996 when you won NOWT. Spent MILLIONS and MILLIONS since and still won nowt. I cant wait to see you all turn on the "messiah" like the ungrateful, shallow, narrow minded, fickle supporters you all are. Deep

Have a look at the fixtures. Newcastle's run is much harder than Sunderlands. Very tough games coming up. The Pies are playing Man U, Arsenal & Liverpool over the next 6 weeks. Villa, Blackburn & Bolton make up the other 3.. After that they have a reasonble run of games until March when they play Everton away and Chelsea at home. Sunderland are playing 6 sides in the current top half but only one of them away (liverpool). It'll be interesting.

"one word for mackems" jelous hehehehehe, and im dumb. didnt you mean JEALOUS. While on the subject of attendances. 40k in the championship did happen. At present we have the 5ht highest average and the fourth highest attendance this season for a team sitting in the relegation zone....facts. Q. why do you delay a k/o by 15 mins to let 36000 idiots in? that is 16000 spare seats on the arrival of your messiah. A. they only had half the turnstiles open for expected crowd AND delayed the k/o cos they knew those outside wouldnt bother if they missed 15 minutes. Finally, Bolton at home with 5 defenders, 0-0, INSPIRATIONAL.
