A kick in the teeth! Another managerial appointment! Over spending on players that under preform! Chairmen want to sell! Another owner! Another season in League One! Sunderland and our foe for today!

Today we take on one of British footballs sleeping giants! Sunderland have a great history and have had some great players who helped Sunderland play in the top league of England for many years!

They are in a select club that have fallen from grace and are trying to get back to the top division along with:
Wigan
Sheffield Wednesday
Ipswich Town
Bolton Wanderers
Portsmouth
Charlton
Wimbledon

Some of those clubs had a chemistry that died when certain parts of them left, retired or didn't reinvest. Some of them invested badly and ended up being unable to control their delise. Most have been punished for their misdealings some even having to fold and start again from scratch.

Some will return to the big time and some won't but what is the big time fo the clubs mentioned? Only time will tell but for this season we are amongst these teams, along with others all tring to gain promotion into the Championship (Our big time). but only 3 will make it.

It's going to be a great game I reckon and one that will give some indication on where we will be towards the end of the season!

Enjoy the match boys and girls!
