Tom 14018 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Teams: Sunderland (from): Gordon, Fulop, Chimbonda, Ferdinand, Collins, Nosworthy, McCartney, Diouf, Whitehead, Miller, Reid, Richardson, Malbranque, Tainio, Henderson, Cisse, Murphy, Healy, Chopra, Jones, Waghorn. Newcastle (from): Given, Harper, Beye, Edgar, Enrique, N'Zogbia, Taylor, Coloccini, Cacapa, Bassong, Tozer, Butt, Guthrie, Geremi, Duff, Barton, Jonas, Doninger, Xisco, Ameobi, Carroll, Donaldson, Ranger, Danquah. Referee : Mike Riley BIG-MATCH FACTS The 129th North-East league derby could provide Newcastle with their 50th league victory over Sunderland. Newcastle are chasing only their second victory of this league season, which could see them climbing seven places and above their opponents; Sunderland already have two victories. This is a clash between the Premier League's draw specialists; both clubs have three stalemates, including their last two outings in both cases. This match pits the most recently appointed Premier League manager and the second oldest in Newcastle's interim boss Joe Kinnear, with the youngest in the highest league in Roy Keane. Newcastle are unbeaten in nine Premier League meetings with their local arch-rivals; winning six and drawing three since the Black Cats' 1-2 success at St James' Park on 18 November 2000. Sunderland have only beaten Newcastle twice in 14 Premier League meetings, and have never managed maximum points against them on home territory. The Magpies have not lost a North-East derby since the 1-0 away defeat to Middlesbrough on 22 October 2006. Distance between the clubs: 13 miles (20 kilometres) This is the shortest Premier League journey Newcastle will make this season. CLUB FORM SUNDERLAND Club stats 12th 9 points Highest achievable after Saturday's matches: 8th Lowest could fall: 15th 2008-09 Premier League performance - best and worst categories in the league 1. Eight of their 11 goals league and cup goals this season have been scored in the last 10 minutes. 2. The highest placed North-East club. 3.

Fixtures NEWCASTLE UNITED Club stats 19th 6 points Highest achievable after Saturday's matches: 12th Lowest could fall: 19th 2008-09 Premier League performance - best and worst categories in the league 1. Making a sixth attempt to add to their 1,000 post war league wins. 2. Picked up two points out of 18, both coming under Joe Kinnear with 2-2 draws away to Everton, and home to Manchester City. 3. A 1-0 home win over Bolton on 23 August is their only league maximum of this campaign, and only win in 11 Premier League outings. 4. One of the bottom four clubs all without an away win. 5. On the longest current run of seven matches without a victory on their Premier League travels. 6. Drawn two and lost two league games away from St James' Park this season; drawn four and lost three on the road since beating Tottenham 1-4 at White Hart Lane on 30 March - their only win in 15 away league games. 7. Won one and drawn four of the last five Premier League matches against North-East clubs. 8. This match precedes back-to-back home league fixtures against Midlands' clubs next week.

Jill 0 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 Anyone else bricking it? Yeah I feel sick at the thought already. Usually I drink through it on derby day, but I'm watching the match in my sister's pub so I'll have to behave in case I need any bar shifts over Christmas.

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I've been quietly confident about beating these tramps from the start. You only have to look at their squad, tbh they're a bunch of nobody's. But, it's a derby so owt could happen, imo though, all the pressure is on them with all the money they've spent and the state of us at the moment, if we do beat them this will be one of our sweetest victory's in history for me. 1-4 I reckon, keane to walk before christmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm expecting Keane to follow in your coward of a chairman's footsteps and get all defensive, as the pressure is starting to seriously mount on him and a loss against us will see the fans starting to turn. P.S Gordon to drop a bollock, the pressure will be far to much for that pansy. Edited October 24, 2008 by Wacky Jnr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was more nervous last season. I'm completely relaxed about it, Sunderland will always shit themselves against us, it's just life, there's something mentally that stops them. Man City totally raped them earlier on, and I wasn't at all impressed by them on Monday, I was going to go for 1-2, I am in fact going for Sunderland 0 Newcastle 2.

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 (edited) After what went on with the Ireland set up I couldn't believe Quinn went sniffing keanes arse, the only reasonable explanation is it was the consortium told him he had to.
