Sunday Dugout Discussion

Sunday brings us three Premier League matches, with events kicking off at midday with the Tyne-Wear derby clash and culminating with the titanic clash at White Hart Lane. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open and will be around to soak your reactions as the day progresses.

The team news from the Sports Direct Arena brings us no surprises in the Newcastle lineup with Papiss Cisse shaking off a groin problem to partner Demba Ba up front. Martin O’Neill has given us food for thought, however, drafting in Nicklas Bendtner in attack, presumably shifting Stephane Sessegnon to a support role. Jack Colbak makes way, while Phil Bardsley recovers form a calf problem to take his place in the back four.

Enjoy the game, and the Fulham vs Wolves and Tottenham vs Man United clashes later today and pop into to the Dugout Discussion for some real-time Fantasy Football bantering.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Yesterday the mini league leader in my league of which I was 7 points behind at the start of the week had the benefit of no Silva so RVP (c) and Mcauley on I then had sess and ba with -3. but thanks to Dempsey (vc) after no aguero I make 66 - 62 is bonus is how i think they should go, 3 points in it. It is on.

      Same players minus Taiwo didn't play. Didn't realise Ba was my VC after Aguero so double negative. Sess red. Played Krul (3) over Mignolet (8). Now got BAE and JEvans playing, where I doubt either will keep a cleanie. Also I don't have RVP or Dempsey. So in total I have 8 points, assuming Rooney doesn't score 10 goals or something. Angry? Yes.
