Dunno what’s worse tbh. The lads taking the piss out of your club, like Rodwell, but have talent. Or, as we had in league one, being forced to watch the lads who are trying their hardest but simply are not very good at football and are poor for league one levels - and their representing your...

Dead exciting for us. Exactly what you dream about as a football fan. After years of signing jobbers in league one. How many teams “win the transfer window” and struggle in the season ahead though. But then again, we only need three worse than us, and two could be Leeds and Burnley.

Oh lovely. Some great pubs around there. Always enjoy going north of the border

Finally one I’ve heard of!

Sunderland ladies were at one time a force in women’s football - with 6 of the England side having developed there. They were forced out of the top division in 2018 despite finishing 7th in the WSL, based on “financial and commercial criteria” not footballing. Demoted two divisions and the...

Looking forward to it tonight!

Couldn’t agree more with this. It’s a fantastic part of the world, and an amazing city, but not for footballers. But then again, there’s plenty of towns and cities that are pretty horrible to live in - not least various places in the Middle East with teams - but footballers would happily go...

Watched Sunderland lose up in Edinburgh yesterday. What a waste of time that was. I’m pessimistic about the club at the best of times. But really worried after that performance.

I go to every Sunderland men’s game, and for a long time didn’t watch any other football (when we were really bad). But these days I will often stick on games if I’m about the house on a weeknight or a Sunday or whatever. And if you’re in the pub before our game I’ll watch that too. Very...

Have we! Nice. Know anything about him? Any good?

Ouch.

There is a British quota right? I wouldn't be too surprised. That's another one that's [Poor language removed] over the Mags though. They were deffo in for him earlier in the summer. And obviously Burnley as well, he was very very good for them last year.

He had a very good season last year, but I have to agree - can't believe City didn't fancy someone a level above

Let's not get ahead of ourselves lad haha. The Mags I know will often talk about how they like Liverpool, or see themselves as a relatively similar club to them. Stretches back to when they viewed Man U as a "rival" in the 90's under Keegan I think. And was probably made worse in recent years...

i couldn’t comment on how he is, but we’re constantly being told we need PL experience - and that helps with that I suppose. Also, signal of intent for the rest of the window like. We’ve got other deals in the pipeline I imagine - and this won’t harm negotiations with them
