10 Reasons Sunderland Shouldn't Fear Man United

1. Don€™t Mention The Word Revenge€

Some Manchester United fans still say they owe Sunderland revenge for when the fans had the nerve to celebrate Manchester City snatching away the Premier league title in the last seconds of the 2011/12 season. Some fans on social media keep bringing up the word 'Revenge' even though we were relegated at Old Trafford years ago, we took three points off City during that season and four off their rivals last season, it seems they have forgotten that doesn't it? Maybe we must just have to roll over and hand them three points every time we meet in order to keep our relationship friendly€ get a grip it was all done in banter. You are telling me they wouldn't have done the same if Newcastle won the league in the last seconds and we thought we had won something? No, of course not. Never mind we got our own revenge last season when Larsson volleyed home a great winner to keep our club in the Premier league for the 8th consecutive season. Let's hope they mention revenge when we go to Old Trafford later in the season as that will mean we played well and picked up either one or all three points. Do you agree that Sunderland can beat Man Utd and do you see the Black Cats having a steadier season this time around? If so, please leave your thoughts in the comments thread below...
