Whether it's the Newcastle of old or this sorry bunch, it's never a dull team, that's for absolute certain

Well done Darlow, made a couple of really important stops today!

After the greedy Bastard chants just prior to the penalty I sincerely doubt he was in a generous mood

No, Cabaye would never do Newcastle a favour.

TherapyBoy

Whatever he was doing it was a poor penalty, and I'm grateful it was.

Gotta love Mitro's passion.

Sunderland equalise... balls

Get in

martyos121

Great win, showed tremendous fight today and props to Darlow for the peno save.

If Norwich lose to Arsenal, there's every chance of survival yet. Every chance.

SlickRic

If you stay in the league, Rafa will make you a top 8 side within a season or 2.

Mark my words.

That_Guy

Jesus.... My heart.

COME ON ARSENAL NOW FFS!!!

Seannew1

Good result indeed, but I still maintain that Sunderland are in pole position with a game in hand and a superior goal difference, we still have it all to do lads!

Moneymaker

3rd game I've been out and not watching.

Pattern emerging here :pac:

Nerves are shot! Great result, pity Sunderland stole a point

kevthegaff

Woohoo

LuckyLloyd

Won two, drawn two of the last four. Huge game against Villa now.

Dont you dare watch the remaining games!!

Next round of games, nufc at villa, Sunderland home to Chelsea and Norwich home to United.

We could be 5 points clear this time next week. Much rather 2 points on the board than a game in hand at this end of the table

Not over yet buddy! Not by a long shot! If the results above go as expected it will be over this time next week though. Would be surprised if everything goes as expected mind!

How? You still have a game in hand and it's against Everton! They've only won 8 games this season!

We've won 2 in 14, or 1 in 9, failed to beat Palace and West Brom at home in that period, thrown away 2 points at your place. We've failed to beat far worse teams than Everton.

Meanwhile Newcastle have drawn with City and Liverpool and beaten Swansea and Palace in their last 4, taking 8 points from an available 12. Rafa is proving his worth as expected. You'll obviously take 3 points from a Villa side who have lost 11 games in a row and then you're at home to a Spurs side with nothing to play for and minus Alli on the last day of the season. I think you'll reach at least 37 points, perhaps even 39.

I think 36 is Sunderland's absolute limit, which would mean taking 4 points from Chelsea (H), Everton (H), Watford (A). For a side with 2 wins in 14 (or 1 in 9), 4 points from those games is even a bit of a stretch to be honest.

It's just my opinion and I've been wrong many times before, but I don't know how anyone can look at things as they are and not think Newcastle will stay up.

GT_TDI_150

Surely if Spurs loose the tittle like this they will be deflated as **** come the last game of the season .... surely!?

Duff

You would think so. Hopefully half the lads are mentally already on holidays/Euros.

rob316

They will be desperate to finish ahead of Arsenal still and its not guaranteed yet. A lot more on the line for Newcastle though regardless.

TaosHum

Wouldn't be looking over Villa TBH.

Given our away form this season, it's by no means a given.

Cant beat villa = DESERVE to go down

They have been rubbish and their fans are planning a huge protest.

We have to as fans assume we'll beat them, the players on the other hand can take nothing for granted!

As above, im more nervous about this game then our one against spurs or our last 4, maybe its because we went down against these the last time but villa tend to raise it a bit against Newcastle.

we need everyone on form, a performance like city and this could be a walk over, and the players need to look at it that way aswell, no better way to make a statement going into the last game then to hop off these!

by the state of Villa park attendance there could be more away fans than home!!

Obertan and Marveaux released, hardly surprising.

JPNelsforearm

So much dross in that squad, they wont be the last, Championship or not. Hard to believe Obertan is 27, I thought he was only around 23 and had some growth potential, what a waste of space.

M5

Not good enough for Super Pards, good enough for Barcelona

Massive day tomorrow.

Need 3pts against Villa, end of. Hopefully Manchester United can do us a favour in the earlier kick-off, but I am more worried about getting out of Villa Park with 3pts. Not going to be straightforward.

Vurnon San Benito

HOWAY THE LADS!

martyos121

Mitro would've buried that, Cisse offers absolutely nothing, he makes good runs and that's it, can't finish chances anymore.

M5

Don't get sticking with cisse, he offers nothing and we.play better without him

tastyt

Where ye watching this game lads?

That wasn't even a difficult volley to hit ffs, just focus on making contact with it! Cisse would be out of his depth in the Championship tbh.

At least Chelsea have turned up

Cisse man, just get off ffs

What does Benitez see in him, Perez and Mitro far better, far busier players

I honestly don't know, he is either too slow to release or gives it away. We have had at least 3 breaks slowed to a crawl by him

Sunderland ****ing winning
