    Sunderland v Sheffield United

    Did anyone see the match it was a cracker.

    The one thing that stood out for me was how good Sunderland are on the counter, and how poor Sheffield United are defensively.

    If United don't sign a CH in the transfer window they will have to settle for the play offs.

    Don't write Sunderland off, they have 2 excellent strong and powerful strikers and are a well organised outfit. I know nowt about their manager but he really has got them ticking, and expect they will take it to the wire

    We need to look after ourselves. Get Beyer, Ramsey and Benny fit, buy a proper left back and someone up top like Cannon from Stoke.

    Then it will be us and one other in the automatic promotion places.

    Get a canon from Stoke or anywhere else is a good idea

    There have been times this season (usually when we have drawn a scoring blank) when you might have wondered whether Rex Finlay or Johnny X of Fulchester United would have made useful additions to our striking options. The January window is open and we will see what it brings.

    I'd go for Roy of the Rovers but he's a b@stard and we don't take to them so much.
