Pressure Is On - 3 points A Must
Thu Dec 26, 2013 9:58 pm
The pressure is on Malky and the team and 3 points against Sunderland on Saturday is a must. After the Southampton defeat we need the 3 points with away trips to Arsenal, Man City & Man Utd coming up in the next 3-4 weeks.
Hope that we go out play attacking football and score a few goals to build confidence.

One of the funniest chants today was that we were going to win 4-3!
Fair play, that made me laugh!
How many times have we scored 4 or more under Malky?
I can recall Blackburn away last season but am struggling after that.
The idea that we might score four times in a single Premiership match is pure fantasy unfortunately.

Premier League Preview: Cardiff City v Sunderland
After their first away league win of the season on Thursday, Sunderland will hope for a repeat performance at Cardiff City on Saturday.
Gus Poyet's men have endured a miserable year, narrowly avoiding relegation last season under former boss Paolo Di Canio, and winning only three times in the current league campaign.
However, they enjoyed a surprise 1-0 win over Everton on Boxing Day and will seek to end 2013 on a positive against another club involved in the relegation shake-up.
Ki Sung-Yueng was the man who scored the all-important goal and the Swansea City loanee will look to make it three goals in four Sunderland games on his return to Wales.
Cardiff, who sit in 16th place, are four points ahead of their visitors and, following Thursday's comprehensive 3-0 home defeat to Southampton, have won just once in eight top-flight games.

I don't want to be negative, but we needed a result today and one against Sunderland - we needed the 6 points really, but at best we can get 3, but even that's not good enough I'm afraid. The situation and the way we are playing we could end up with nothing but even with a win and 3 points. Either way by us playing the big guns in January, we could well be rooted to the bottom by the end of it. West Ham and us are the worst performers in the bottom six or seven teams at the present time. Lets hope the others around us get a blip soon.
