Sunderland fans have reacted to news earlier this week that NUFC midfielder Jack Colback could be heading back to Wearside in January and they make for amusing reading.

According to an exclusive by TEAMtalk, the United outcast could be set to make a shock return to Sunderland in next month’s January transfer window after being told he is free to leave Newcastle by Rafa Benitez.

Here's some of the best reactions on Twitter from the Mackems - to say they aren't keen on a reunion is an understatement:

As you can see, the vast majority are passionately against the idea, but there's a few who seems to be keen on the idea:

Colback arrived on Tyneside in the summer of 2014, but he looks like he's played his last game in black and white.

Having reportedly turned down loan moves to Wolves and Hull over the summer due to 'geographical reasons', heseems to be keen on remaining in the North-East. Step in Sunderland!

It would do us a favour. An NUFC outcast and one who's now doing so little to pick up his alleged £40k a week.
