I can get on board with that, yeah.

But I'm now being brutal like RK. Time to stop being the underdog; the plucky losers.

Time to start taking some names...

Not really a Derby though is it.

it's a derby in the sense that us vs City/Utd is. A city vs a city I suppose

They've had big changes. The person who offered it might not be there now.

Hardly Kone's problem though is it, not that I agree with what he is getting up to now. If I was promised a raise by my boss then he/she left I would be hitting up my new boss for the raise I was promised.

And from Everton's point of view you don't get any points for being gentlemen. Same has been done to us before and will be in the future.

just like when players want to leave us I always say the most important thing is to get top dollar and then wave them off ( or kick them out ). If they don't appreciate playing for us then I won't be crying if they leave.

I would say 99.9% Sunderland fans feel the same. If he doesn't want to play for them, then flog the beaut for as much as possible. If that's to us then great because I like him. We get a great player, they get top dollar and so the circle of football life continues.

in 2 years time he may very well do the same to us, if that was the case we would sell him for 40m and again the circle of football life continues.

This fella will sign a new contract with Sunderland when the window, same as Rom will for us.

I know fans are fickle, but I'd be amazed if he was still at Sunderland come the end of the transfer window, when he has basically feigned injury to pull out of a derby game. How could the supporters forgive him for that? You may be right and moyes ' won't allow him to move (and hold the lads career back) therefore he'll have no option to sign.

He might be injured, who knows?? You could say Rom feigned injury last weekend.

There won't be an injury mate. Managers, in the most part chat bubbles to the press with these issues.

Bit like Lukaku with us then - gave up for the last ten gameslast season, mouthed off alll summer, nobody wants him so will sign new contract, score a bafgfull next season, we will all sing his name, then he will want to go again. rinse and repeat.

Kone virtually done I reckon. Still got a hunch that Sissoko is on the radar too....the Galloway loan will pave the way for it.

Would prefer Galloway to go to Sunderland. The thought of Galloway playing under Rafael and trying to win promotion for the toon doesn't rest easy on me. Shows you how the mighty have fallen, Rafael wanting to loan Galloway from 'small clubs' like Everton.
