First kit ive liked in years.

By signing a player we already had ahead of the end of the time period we had for first option on him? Most of our activity won't be happening until late June/July, like most clubs. We will possibly be making signings earlier than we usually do but I wouldn't expect anymore incomings in the next 4-6 weeks. You've got to admit that's pretty sharpish for us

Looks like we are going to be very proactive in this window, no hanging about.

HMS Colback? Hes a sunken wreck.

He would have known Atsu from his brief spell at Chelsea as well, so he must be very familiar with him now and probably why he asked about the loan deal at the start of last season.

We can always give Carr the transfer money again

Id have him but I want a destroyer in the middle to help the back four out.

He was more popular than Pardew and couldn't put a tackle in, so he had to go.

What will be the new insult for the fans wearing shirts and going tot he match. "Fungaloids"

Who is Semedo?

whut! 45 million over 3 years Sure it'll be more like 4.5 million a year for 3 years.

Does it have a white back tho?

Anyone worth knicking off Hull?

John Salako on gear. Let us remind John... Why does every single player have a different coloured shirt? Ask Pardew. Stiff, the game was developed in the 80s

John Salako on gear. Let us remind John...

He still has decent pins tho.

Spare me this nonsense. Yeah its time to split.

He'll be bowled over if he gets a move to London.

A great bunch of lads.

He'll end up in the gutter if he stays at Sunderland.

http://www.totalsportek.com/money/premier-league-tv-rights-money-distribution/ if this right looks like ~£100m for finishing last, push on to mid-table we could be looking at nearer £120m wonder what our outgoings look like, £50-60m? no idea therefore assuming our new sponsorship deal isn't turd and we can rustle up ~£20m from sales somehow i guess that £70-100m isn't far off Do we get that wedge from the prem at the start of the season.

Plenty of little gems out there and I'm sure Rafa has contacts and friends from previous clubs who'll do him a good turn.

Not sure of the exact figure of the current tv money, is it 100 mil , do we get that at the start of the season of at the end of the season? We get very little for finishing as champions of the Championship.

Ive now torn up my Pardew returning this summer betting slip.
