Monsieur Salut confesses: thank heavens no one went for Sunderland 0-2 Leeds. There are quite enough people who could tell you I already owe them mugs. They will come, I promise. Pete Sixsmith, Leeds-born but SAFC through and through though he also loves the Rhinos, has written superbly, and without partisan bile, about the disappointing […]

SAFC vs Leeds United Guess the Score: who’ll be on top on Saturday?
Malcolm Dawson writes….I nearly put SAFC v Dirty Leeds in the headline in an attempt to attract a few irate United fans along to our Guess the Score competition but opted for diplomacy rather than provocation. If you’ve never been here before then all you have to do is be the first to correctly predict […]
Sheffield Wednesday vs Sunderland Guess the Score: extending Grayson’s run?
Pete Sixsmith had a long trek home from East Anglia yesterday. I bet the fish and chips tasted especially good at Wetherby after a fine 3-1 win. We’ll doubtless hear from him some time day – his report of the match, and his travels leading up to it, is eagerly awaited. In the meantime, […]
Norwich vs SAFC prize Guess the Score: a repeat of 2016 would be nice
We’ve had a first winner in this season’s Guess the Score series and it’s yet another correct prediction from Paul Devine, a Sunderland supporter exiled in the Netherlands. He sensed we would draw 1-1 with Derby County and was right. As I write, the Bury League Cup game is still to come. There may be […]
Guess the Score as Sunderland take on Bury in the League Cup
Pete Sixsmith has added another superb instalment to his self-inflicted First Time Ever I Saw Your Team series. Whoever who support, it’s a great read, taking in Sixer’s experiences of seeing SAFC play Bury. Monsieur Salut thought he had missed a rather important shared experience of the more distant past – that awful Boxing Day […]
Beauty or beast: prize Guess the Score as Grayson’s ‘different animal’ faces Derby County
A new season beckons and we’re raring to go, full of optimism and excitement, our confidence nourished by the knowledge that Sunderland AFC are in the safest of hands. No pre-season calamities, no breaking of ranks or signs of dressing room dissent, no one facing disciplinary action before the league programme even starts. And everything […]
Chelsea prize Guess the Score: ‘it’s our party, we’ll cry if we want to’
With apologies to the late Lesley Gore and the writers of her pop classic – it took no fewer than four of them: Walter Gold John Gluck Jr, Herb Weiner Seymour Gottlieb, and their song of teenage betrayal was elevated to new heights in the 1981 version of the non-Eurythmics, non-Sunderland Dave Stewart and Barbar […]
Arsenal ‘Guess the Score’: just a matter of how many Defoe scores?
We all know relegated teams like to turn it on for the swansong. After the meekest of surrenders to Swansea, SAFC players – especially those with an eye on lucrative summer transfers – will accordingly raise their game at Arsenal. Two for Defoe, one more for Billy Jones as we romp to a 3-1 win. […]
Relishing victory at Hull and time to Guess the Score vs Swansea
Monsieur Salut writes: talk about killing two birds with one stone. Peter Lynn has put away – probably smashed – the crystal ball that kept telling him we’d stay up. But he hasn’t lost the faith in an broader sense. He was at Hull and will, I imagine be at the Stadium of Light on […]
Hull vs SAFC Guess the Score: down with pride, or self-pity?
Before we reach this week’s business of guessing the score at Hull City on Saturday, Salut! Sunderland is delighted to be able to say that our friends at Art of Football are the first confirmed sponsors of this season’s farewell-to-the-Premier-League edition of the HAWAY (highly articulate Who are You?) awards. These, as most readers […]
