With Michael Owen in the last year of his Newcastle United contract, speculation is growing about how much longer he'll be at the club.
Newcastle fans are already worried about losing their star striker and it seems Sunderland supporters would be happy to pile on the misery
for their rivals.
The latest hot topic on the Sunderland Echo Sports forum suggests that the Black Cats faithful would be happy to see Owen wearing red and white stripes should he leave the Magpies.
The recent post by 'pallionlad' asks whether Sunderland should move for Owen now citing "his doubts as to who will be manager in three months time and whether the club will be sold" as two reasons the England striker is likely to leave.
