Sunderland afc

[Yarrgh]

Theres something that just doesnt sit right about this takeover,I dont know what it is but I get the feeling it is going to come crashing down in spectacular fashion

20 thousand season tickets though. Can't be bad. 20 home games. A fiver of each of them for each game winging its way to Casa Rodwell.

Conspiracy theory time. What if Rodders is off in the sick and being paid off by the insurance and Sunderland would rather that than have him come back? Rodders mental well being be damned.

He could become an agent and make even more money doing nowt.

I'd do what @jaycee suggested if I was in Rodder's comfortable slippers. I suspect he's an introverted and shy lad. He should be set for life. I hope he finds a path for himself after football otherwise that money won't be able to make him happy.

Stewart Donald has admitted very few Sunderland players have said they want to stay at the club next season.

Crying

“Not the most important job at @SunderlandAFC but one ticked off nonetheless,” he tweeted. “An order for 31,500 seats to replace those pink seats is being made so please look out for a press release over the coming days where we hope the fans can come down and help us to replace them.”

"We can't afford to pay for the installation so we need people to do it for free"

Incredible stuff. Not even the most ardent head-patter can still believe in this can they?

I was having a little breeze around on that forum, apparently

This is their first signing.

2 goals in 24 games at Bury

One season in 12 years he has reached double figures in the League

Just so happened to have been at Oxford with the new owner, who is essentially also acting as the Director of Football.

League Two is nailed on.

Probably because he is a fat, talentless, overpaid, underworked tosser who can't head, tackle, pass, shoot, run or take set pieces.

To be fair, they do need a few more of them

Oh my god, just clocked that one of them posted that they’re paying/have been Lee Bloody Cattermole 80k a week.

Thought we were awful. Jesus.

There's a prominent poster on that forum called 'Brexit'.

I have tried to portray them as head-patting vermin, but they are beyond any caricature. Super-Fantastico.

According to a journo on Sky Sports they also want Lyle Taylor. A cursory look at his League One scoring record across a couple of clubs (he's a striker) would suggest he has played about 138 games at that level and scored 26 goals. At Bournemouth when they were in League One he didn't score for two years.

The owner is pouring it directly into the supporters' ears and they are falling for it again. Magical.

Any negativity is met with “You’re a Geordie” patter. Magical.

Might be as good as RAWK, this.

Transfer News...

It looks like a second signing for SAFC could be imminent as striker Chris Maguire is due for a medical on Wearside today. The 29 year old is a Scottish international and was a former Oxford player so both the new owners and manager will be keen for this one to go through. Maguire is currently under contract with Bury and has a year left on his current deal so a nominal fee will be involved.


Maguire could be joined by AFC Wimbledon's Lyle Taylor. The club have reportedly entered advanced talks with the forward and his representatives as we look to steal a march on his many suitors. The Montserrat international scored 18 goals last season in League One and, despite not being Scottish in any way, is available on a free so it's one box ticked at least.


In other news, it looks like the deal to take want-away midfielder Paddy McNair to Boro is now back on after the clubs had agreed a fee but Boro took the huff as they thought we were touting him around to get a higher bid. SAFC owner Stewart Donald explained: “The club hasn’t accepted any bids other than from Middlesbrough. The agent is trying to see what other clubs are interested – I can’t stop that. Sunderland have done nothing wrong.We had an acceptable bid from and said you can speak to the player, nothing more nothing less.”



Meanwhile, we're looking at bringing in Hearts stopper Jon McLaughlin as we try to fill the hole left by the departure of Steele and Camp (ed - let's call it the arsehole). It'll be a welcome move as I'm sure Jon can't do any worse than the lads he's coming in to replace. He's also Scottish and available on a free to it's pretty much nailed on.



Finally, our proposed loan move for Celtic winger Lewis Morgan is looking less likely as the former St Mirren player sounds like he's staying at Celtic Park. He said: “I had a wee chat with the manager and he welcomed me and was saying what he expected of me. He wants me to really kick on in pre-season and try and get into his thoughts. I’ve always had that belief within myself anyway. I know it’s a tough task, the squad here is full of quality, and it’s going to be tough to break into it, but I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t think I could add something to the team.”

For Sunderland to sign the player they need to be:

- Preferably Scottish
- Free
- Bad

But the owners are not fly-by-night chancers

To be fair Lee Cattermole is so slow he hasn't got to the final 2 zeroes on his weekly paycheck yet so they'll get away with 800 quid a week.
