So is the bet still valid with Keane gone?

They have an odd set of players but Sbragia seems to have got them playing and with the league as tight as it is they have a good chance of doing well if they can put in even a sustained burst of form. They have goal scorers at the minute in Jones and Cisse but neither of them are super reliable and two up front I think is unlikely to work for them against the better teams.

Mate he has his faults and they are many, but he got them promoted first time out the traps and kept them in the Premiership ... no cake walk or shooting fish in a Barrel... give the guy his dues

Only 6 points mate and they have been very unlucky with some results .. the United one coming to mind .. one thing is for sure they wont go down .. which in of itself is a major achievement considering, I hope Blackburn and Newcastle go down

Hope not mate, my flat mate is a Sunderland fan and so I'm hoping they beat the drop.

For me, Middlesborough and West Brom are going down, along with one of Newcastle or Sunderland.

I dont think they deserve to drop mate .. to be fair .. then again Reading went down and not always the worse teams fall through the trap door

best mate is a maccam, been to a few games this year....so no them inside out!!

basically they have had some scandalous decisions against them this year, been unlucky in a few more games as well.

DOnt think they will go down they played well last week but there is definitely a lack of cnfidence at the club at the moment, goes without saying this is the biggest game of there season today. win this and reckon they will win a couple more and not even be worried about a dogfight, lose or even draw and its off to the wire.

I don't think Sunderland will go down they are capable of winning the odd game as today showed. I think Hull are going they're in free fall and can't buy a win at the moment. They've only picked up 7 points since the turn of the year
