    Saqueeb Rajan: Newcastle look lost...at least #Pardew had a system to which the players were able to respond...squeaky bum time for Toon army.

    Emma Gregory: The apathy of the Newcastle players is absolutely disgusting. They should all be ashamed to collect this week's pay packet.

    Rob Porter: Newcastle are currently one of the worst teams in the league. We've been awful since December.

    Forget local bragging rights for a moment.

    That is a huge win in terms of the Premier League relegation scrap.

    Sunderland could have moved into the relegation zone, instead they move three points clear.

    "Sunderland wanted it more, they needed it more and this came across. The one moment of quality - Defoe's volley - settled it. Signing him could be the best bit of business they have done in many years."

    The Stadium of Light is bouncing as the fans hug, the players wave to their audience and manager Dick Advocaat looks on with a satisfied look.

    Newcastle's players skulk off - after acknowledging their fans.

    Five wins in a row against Newcastle for the Black Cats. Thank goodness it is a bank holiday tomorrow eh Toon fans?

    Ryan Taylor delivers but Costel Pantilimon holds on. Game over.

    Corner to Newcastle. Surely not? Tim Krul is up...

  8. Postpublished at 17:51 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    That is surely that. Sunderland have a throw in their own half. Whistles going all over the stands.

    Sunderland fans are already celebrating but Newcastle have the ball at halfway...

  10. Postpublished at 17:50 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    Patrick van Aanholt tries a shot from distance. It is poor and Newcastle have the ball back, briefly. Adam Armstrong concedes a free kick. Time running out.

    Sunderland have suddenly turned into a bag of nerves. Newcastle with possession again. but the hosts win a free-kick. They will take their time here.

    James in South Wales: Newcastle United are a disgrace to the Premier League and British football. No passion in wearing the shirt, an owner with no ambition and "professional players" who make Sunday league players look world beaters.

    Chris, Towcester: Mike Ashley, show some compassion. Sell up... Please!!!!!!

  13. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 17:48 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    Lee Cattermole eases Ayoze Perez out of the way in the penalty area. No penalty. All Newcastle.

    Sunderland boss Dick Advocaat is living every moment. He tries to roar his side forward as five minutes injury time is signalled. Plenty of time...

    The ball pings around Sunderland's area before hacked clear but the visitors pick it up again... Sunderland fans getting nervous.

    Newcastle come forward again...

    "We were asked before the game if we thought John Carver would still be Newcastle boss in the summer? If they continue like this I don't think he will be. I think they were a better team at the start of the season than they are now."

  18. Postpublished at 17:44 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    It perhaps should be. Daryl Janmaat flicks on Ryan Taylor's corner but Ayoze Perez volleys over from close range.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 17:43 British Summer Time 5 April 2015

    Sunderland playing a little bit deeper as the clock ticks on. Newcastle replace Sammy Ameobi with local boy Adam Armstrong. Can the striker rescue it for Newcastle?

    Maybe, they have forced a corner. Is this the moment?

    Dave Hill: Yet another reactive performance from #nufc and not a proactive one. No game plan from kick off and players aren't motivated!!

    Niall Murphy: Newcastle players are a disgrace to the club and don't deserve to be out there.

    George Bassett: Pardew in!
