Umm, its Sunderland- Had to read your former comments about this team-I haven't been following English football that much, just how well or bad Newcastle is playing.

I have no possibility to watch The TOON playing or some other team This has something to do with the 4-6 TV-Channel that broadcast English football matches from England. Premier League or from Championship

In the end of last year Eurosport 1(I think it was) was sending a Newcastle match, 2 weeks later, another Sport channel was sending another Newcastle game. About 2 weeks ago a third channel had Newcastle as their main match of the day- If I have to follow Newcastle I have to pay for least 3-4 sport channels-No way.

Sunderland, or Mackems if you're a Geordie, are currently the bottom club in the English Premier League. They have like 19 points of a possible 81, netting 24 times against 50 conceded. They have won five matches, all season. Sunderland is the main rival for Newcastle, and visa versa.

My point, which was a joke anyway, was that only two kinds of people would be looking forward to this match. Man City fans, to watch their team win. And Newcastle fans, to watch their arch rivals lose.

This is no game for the neutral, and so it proved.

I know someone who have this plaque hanging from a doorside window of their property:

'I support two football clubs. One is Newcastle and the other one is whoever is playing against Sunderland'

TOON drew 0-0 with Reading last night therefore dropping two points to those chasing them but still have a three point advantage.

Brighton beat Derby last night to go equal on points but behind on goal difference.

TOON play at home to Fulham today....HWTL

A shock 3-1 defeat and hopefully the added realisation that promotion is not a certainty yet.

Still top on goal difference but nothing can be taken for granted.

I'm terrible sorry posted a comment in a wrong thread-that is what happens when you are doing two things at one time.

I agree.

Fulham plays against Blacburn today evening. Rovers has a scant chance against recently well performing cottagers...bye bye six point safety cushion...

A victory for Burnley hopefully

I'm not a Chelsea fan but it was rather satisfying seeing Mourinho knocked out of the FA Cup on tv last night

Choosing between Chelsea and ManU is the same thing with FC Lahti and HJK, Of course with english football I can be neutral observer.

I think Sunderland-Burnley is either draw or use my only option to play all three choices. On quick glance Everton, Cardiff and Fulham will most likely win. Chelsea too but Stoke is good home team, so back up home win or draw
