Souness "Suicidal"!

Last updated : 20 October 2005 By Footy Mad - Editor
Graeme Souness said yesterday he cannot wait for his first Newcastle United v Sunderland clash. But there was a different tale to tell today as the United boss said: "To say I am suicidal is not far off the mark. The injury siuation is tough to take."
But having an injury list that includes Albert Luque, Kieron Dyer, Celestine Babayaro, Titus Bramble, Lee Bowyer and Craig Moore, he says he has a major headache before arguably his biggest test as Newcastle manager.
Souness said yesterday: "After Wigan we couldn't have asked for a better game. We wish it was tomorrow, to be honest. I've played in derbies in Liverpool and Glasgow, and managed in them as well. Rangers v Celtic is special, as is the Merseyside derby and Galatasaray against Fenerbahce. I'm sure Newcastle United v Sunderland will be up there with the best of them.
"I'm really looking forward to this one, and I know my players are. It's another one to tick off, and I'll be doing everything to make sure we win."
