Not while Oliver Holt is alive.

If they lose to Reading tonight, then they are in serious, serious trouble, and MON will be under real pressure.

I feel torn by all this. I like Sunderland, my best mate when i was a student in Newcastle, was a Sunderland fan, and I went to quite a few Sunderland matches with him, amongst them third division ones and a Wembley play off final, so I still have a liking for them.

I have to consider this against the fact I am sufficiently bitter still to want MON to fall on his arse.

*TURMOIL*

Monumental gubbing at Villa Park sees O'Neill relieved of duties with immediate effect with Sunderland in relegation zone with three games remaining. Caretaker manger, probably Malcolm Crosbie, steers them to safety.

They did win.

Reading are shite and will finish bottom. Them and QPR are gone imo so just the one relegation spot to worry about.

Still think Sunderlands fixtures in the next few weeks will leave them with very little, he ain't out the woods yet!

I agree, Southampton away could be the death knell with the two Manchester clubs inbetween.
