By the time I finished typing up this post, you'd already deleted it, but to clarify the recent movements to everyone...

This is not strictly correct. Deptford's overall PVR (as at Sunday 25 January 2015) did not change. Whilst Deptford lost work as a result of the service changes in Sunderland, they also gained work. For every bus lost last week, a replacement arrived at Deptford in some form. 8260 and 8272/73 all transferred to Deptford, allowing 4914, 6084 and 8329 to transfer out.

Nothing has replaced 8328 because the PVR at Deptford is one fewer now. As I said before, the Cadet which remained on the nPower services this week has now moved over to the new 33/33A and 39. Whatever Deptford allocated in its place while they awaited the Cadet to be freed up (probably a Scania L94) has become a spare bus, allowing 8328 (which was a spare bus for services 2/2A this week only) to be released and transferred to Riverside, in turn allowing the withdrawal of a further Scania artic. There have been almost daily appearances of a Versa on other services besides services 2/2A this week - this is because they had a branded spare vehicle. This is the downside to having branded spare vehicles, and it's the reason Go North East has moved towards spare corporate liveried vehicles of the same specification, as it gives depots more freedom in what they can allocate.
