PieFacE Posted April 16, 2013 VT Supporter Share Posted April 16, 2013 (edited) I'm still not so sure about Sunderland's survival campaign just yet. They are playing better for sure under PDC. But last Sunday was a derby where any kind of result can happen, and Newcastle looked jaded to say the least. And to be fair, Newcastle should have scored a few too. Cisse missed 2 sitters and they had a goal disallowed. Edited April 16, 2013 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingsombrero Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 (edited) They looked pretty drained after the shift they put in against Newcastle, wouldn't be surprised if they are fairly lacklustre in their next couple now, despite the obvious importance of every game. It is essentially still an O'Neill side after all. That balls to the wall display that has got everyone on here so jittery could in an odd way be what eventually costs them. .

Would love to see Di Canio relegated. He's another media favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted April 18, 2013 Moderator Share Posted April 18, 2013 They love the fact that he's box office, so they love him in the same way you might love poking a bear with a stick from a safe distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CI Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I think Sky flip both ways to be honest. Yes they were gushing over Di Canio on Sunday , equally once it goes tits they'll be foaming at the mouth watching PDC meltdown. The only exception is Rednobb who appears to be escaping any voyeuristic glee at present. The knives are out for us though for sure hence why their broadcasting all our games. Fully expect the Norwich game to be switched then it's a full house of our run in on tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 wigan vs villa will definitely be on sky if one of us is not safe and that is one game i am dreading but we owe them a spanking after what they did to us at villa park 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 I really think both teams will not be safe by the time that fixture comes around. I just hope we only need a draw. I think Sunderland will be safe unfortunately. I don't like Di Canio but he has given them a lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 If they have already allocated the matches for that day they cant switch I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully expect the Norwich game to be switched then it's a full house of our run in on tv. I find it odd how you say that Sky have the knives out for us when they broadcast our game live on television. Isn't that a good thing? More exposure (albeit maybe for the wrong reasons)? Over here, people would love for more live football to be broadcast.

I think it's based on the superstition we always lose when we're on TV. A load of nonsense if you ask me, I'm not putting my shirt on until I get in to the ground so no one needs to worry anyway.

JB Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 (edited) DiCanio: "I went to St James' Park without any sort of worry - you can't imagine I would be worried at Villa Park, with all respect." Looks like a couple of the old cliches apply here... Dick-anio has done Lambert's team talk for him, pin that quote up in the dressing room etc. Cock. Would love us to be the team to wipe the arrogant, fascist smirk of his face. Edited April 27, 2013 by JB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
