For them big games where you need 2 CDMs to shield the back 4 and let the attacking players get forward. Hargreaves

I kind of liked Kenwyne, because the few occasions he wanted to do it - he did it. I thought he was a good footballer for a midtable team, but Bruce never warmed to him. B*stard scored an equaliser at OT last season. F*cking Foster.

I don't think we'll welcome them back with style, I think it will be a workman like performance. 2-0 hard fought win. But they'll want to come back with a bang.

Fletcher is an outstanding footballer. Not only is he great in that holding midfield role but he always seems to do well when you play him out wide and he has a few goals a season in him as well.

Birmingham just got a goal back. Terrible goal to concede too. This is getting tense. Eep.

Wigan are now 4 goals adrift. Damn, that has to be embarrassing...

Sunderland.

Unlucky Mojo.

Same old Sunderland. I know we were down to ten but we just can't hold on.

There's a lot of Trinidadian players on Sunderland

Odds for the first manager to be sacked Martinez?

Well, not anymore. We did have Stern John, Kenwyne Jones and Carlos Edwards in recent years but they have all moved on.

Could be. If things look bleak for Wigan this season then i don't think he would be given the chance to turn it around, not again. There are other contenders i feel but yeah, he has to be a possibility.

Well not that that much surprised he knew the players' names, just a tad surprised he knows their nationality.

Of course i do, Sunderland are my team.

I'm not sure if i can think of any others though, apart from Dwight Yorke...

EDIT: Oh and Shaka Hislop.
