Newcastle v Sunderland derbies - After 7 years gap now still 'hope' of them returning nufc

have never managed anything quite so dramatic, a bit like jumping out of a plane without a parachute.

With their eventual crawl back into the second tier, this current season did at least make it mathematically possible that 2023/24 could see the return of Newcastle v Sunderland derbies in the top tier.Burnley were by a massive distance the best in the division, then Sheffield United with a similar difference in quality to those below.I suppose you can say that Luton and Middlesbrough were a little bit better than those below them.

The Mackems creeping through the back door to ensure the ‘hope’ of the return of Newcastle v Sunderland derbies remains alive. Looking at the record books, you have to go back to a period that included the Second World War, to find a longer gap than the current one without Newcastle v Sunderland derbies. That gap lasted from March 1934 to October 1948, fully fourteen years.As I said, Burnley streets ahead of the rest and then Sheffield United also significantly above the others.
