Well, it wasn't to be for Sunderland yesterday away at Fulham, and since he was there in the away end at Craven Cottage we thought it'd be a good time to catch up with our owld marra Tom White! On today's agenda... Sunderland were flat as a fart - but why? The blame game - how much of an impact did the poor officiating have on the way things flowed, and how much did it matter in the end? With some huge games coming up, is it time to ditch five at the back, or will Régis stick by it but just shuffle his pack? We couldn't get Tom on without asking about the upcoming transfer window, so we picked his brains on how active he thinks Sunderland are going to be in January...

January is right around the corner, so you know what that means - the transfer rumour mill has kicked back into gear! With that in mind, Gav, Andrew and Jonny got together to chat about the players we've been linked with in recent days, to look at how the international break has gone for our Lads abroad, and to chat about an interview with an old pal... Matteo Guendouzi has once again been linked to Sunderland. Does a move for an old teammate of our captain and a student of our head coach from his time at Lorient make sense? We've also been linked to a pair of strikers - one from Real Madrid, and one from AC Milan. Andrew can't believe how far we've come in such a short space of time... We've got loads of players away on international duty, and with that comes the worry about them all returning in once piece! LEE CAMP. Bet you never thought you'd hear that name again?
