• Cult Heroes: Ah Cult Heroes, where its often someone awesome, but occasionally it's someone who simply played for both, as that's the nature of the article. This week, and running out of people who played for both we profiled Carsten Fredgaard. Why? It was him or Tal Ben-Haim - CLICK HERE

As we like to do on a Monday, we reviewed the weekend's action. So here we are once again casting our tactical eye over the game with Aston Villa, in the feature we've called Talking Tactics...

Coming at it from a totally different angle, we also got all poetic about the Aston Villa game, somehow anyway, so here's what we like to call, and you love to call, Roker Rhymes...

We all got quite amazed when David Boyle managed to chip in with some opinion. He did bloody well too when it came to looking at what Martin O'Neill might be doing this summer. Bargains? Experienced players? It's all on the list and then some, so come take a look...

We also found time for more opinions in Captain's Blog. Sort of backing up what Dave wrote earlier, the Captain discussed how Ellis Short could approach the summer, where it's expected that in this age of Financial Fair Play, prudence will reign...

On Wednesday afternoon, I myself chipped in with some statistical analysis on our strikers. How do the likes of Stephane Sessegnon and Nicklas Bendtner compare? There's not a great deal between them if you look closely. Come have a read for yourself though for this, and more...

We also "Dropped The Gloves" once again, in the feature where we speak to people who don't support SAFC. Those who are editors of other, more independent sites, and get their honest take on our beloved club. Some times it amazes, some times it infuriates. Come see how Simon McPolin of Debatable Decisions got on...

We've still got stuff over the weekend, including our match report from the Bolton game, to be published shortly after the final whistle, plus we've got our latest column for The Durham Times.
