More amused by Newcastle. I'd love Hughton to wave to Ashley on our way past them.
Beyond Bridcutt and Buckley, I feel for Sunderland fans.

Sunderland look like relegation certainties, surely it'll soon be time for Allardyce?

I reckon some if it is down to them having the most impatient set of fans in the league. They are always getting on managers and players backs meaning neither club ever has any stability.

He's joint favourite (with Rodgers) to be next Premiership manager to leave. Allardyce would be logical man to step in,not sure how the Newcastle fans will react, especially if he manages to keep the Mackems up and they tumble.

Can someone else please post the FACT that Sunderland have the 8th largest wage bill in the Premier League.
Between laughs I'm getting stuck recorditis.

Advocaat didn't want the job, then he did - that's never ideal. They've also bought some right rubbish (Kaboul, Toivonen??).

Funny isn't it? I wouldn't want them back now even if they were FREE.

I'd swap Buckley for March but Bridcutt can do one.

They both need to start winning soon otherwise Bournemouth might do the impossible and stay up!

i'd like to say Allardyce would have more sence, but he cant resist the challenge can he?

Football is a funny old game and maybe if Big Sam wanted to go back into management,why not Bolton Wanderers ? Lennon can't have much shelf life left.

And pay high wages for a sicknote? Nah.

Not on very high wages. £15K before non-existent bonuses. If we could afford Vydra we could afford Buckley. I think Buckley would fit in with CH tactics (especially the long balls out from Stockdale) better than Poyet's. Early in Gigg's career he had hamstring problems but he went on to play lots of games without missing many through injury.
