The Chelsea game went our way last night, with them beating Southampton 4-2. Southampton are now four points behind us with one game in hand.

Meant to see it, but I missed the Women's Football Show this past Sunday night on BBC One. It's the start of the spring season.

We got there in the end but its another three points for us sorry about your result's Steedeel and Geoff.

My mate text me from the match (he travels away games) and he said it turned very ugly. Constant Moyes out chants and the players were heckled at the final whistle. Our home game is going to be toxic on Saturday. Moyrs had yo go before he destroys the club. The guy is not capable of taking us back up.

Here's a Tob. Glad you won.

Geoff, it was a fine effort. You are fine though. You will get it done at the weekend.

Big changes in the summer for Sunderland then Steedeel i never asked you before but who would like as the next manager and what players would you like to see coming in at the club who could make a difference.

Howe from Bournemouth Tob, but that won't happen lol. Chris Hughton has done a great job at Brighton also. We will probably end up with Alen Pardew.

...or Karanka

Some might think I'm crazy, but going on his time with Southampton, I think Nigel Adkins is worth a shot.

Wes, it's good to see you posting in here agin.

On second thoughts? Karanka!

Yes, Adkins can't be worse than Mr Sour. He has to go Wes, the fans have spoken.

Cheers mate Yeah, it's been a while!

Lol I know that appointment wouldn't go down well at all, but he's successfully negotiated the Championship before...who's to say he can't do it again?

As for Adkins...true, it didn't work out well for him at Sheffield United, but unfortunately, these things happen. I think he would be a good fit

I am in complete agreement about Moyes. It's an even sorrier state of affairs now than it was before he was given the job.

The only thing that would go down well at SAFC at the moment is Moyes on a tampered with bungee rope.

No worries, today was a complete freebie so emerging from it with the minimal 1-goal loss will do me fine, though losing Sakho has soured it a little. Got to get it done on Saturday, Burnley have been diabolical on the road all season and we can't afford to let up now. COYP!

I think Pardew would do a good job at Sunderland.

As do I. Although I'm sure it wouldn't go down all that well with many of the locals up there.

Interestingly, he's being linked with the Middlesbrough job!

Tob, don't please. Just don't!

[Geoff D]

Dudes, don't even joke about that. The guy's a one-trick pony, just look at the utterly shambolic state he left Palace in which resulted in some folks (and not just me, the media too) wondering if Fat Sam's magic touch had finally been defeated. But Steedy knew better, oh yes.

Forget about #pardewout, it's more #dontletpardewwithin100feetofthisplace

Yes, and he left the barcodes in a utter mess as well. (Gladly )

I know it's been a fair few years, but how long has it been since Alan Curbishley last managed a football club? I think I remember him saying he wouldn't manage a Championship football side.

He said that he won't manage again and he is happy to be a pundit for T.V.

Wouldn't want him to. . He should stay a pundit Ocean.
