looks like the pressure is getting to howard wilkinson:
"I'm not stupid - honestly, seriously," he said. "At the moment, I know where we are. We're bottom of the table.
"What I was trying to say - I'll say it again and will say it very clearly, I hope - is that I cannot allow myself to contemplate relegation.
"I have to think only that we can get out of this trouble so long as we have the games and the points to play for.
"For me to start talking about the consequences publicly is, in my opinion, to invite the players to think that somewhere in the back of my mind, I actually think it can happen. It then becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
"At the moment, I don't think that and I cannot allow myself to think that,
and the Sunderland fans need to understand that.
"I'm not stupid, but I am, and we are, doing everything possible to try to
rectify the situation."
