manorpark Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Time to update the thread title. Some bloke has been appointed manager. Maybe something simple like "Sunderland of League 1". Best to call it by its proper name . . . 3rd Division. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 They've turned down £2m from Brighton for Paddy McNair. Think he's their star player going by RTG. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's made of glass man, he's also on a pretty decent wedge no doubt, so they should snatch anyone's hand off who offers anything for him. Also really he's not that good.

SEMTEX Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Kind of depends how in the shit they are financially with wages, no? They're not exactly in a great place to make a deal. Everyone will be overpaid for League One and everyone will want to leave. Time to cut some losses. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robm Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Their new managing director and mascot sounds comfortably out of his depth Just spoke to a chap at work whose son worked with him at Tottenham. The general tone was that it was quite a surprise that he had been given such a prestigious title as his previous positions were not of the same magnitude. Also that he was nervous.

They should be looking to get their money back. If the new owners can cancel rodwells contract and give cattermole away then they’ve took a huge step in the right direction.

Why would they be able to cancel Rodwell's contract ? And who has the money to pay Cattermole what he wants, that actually think he's worth signing ?

Optimistic Nut Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Also find it funny that they slag off the likes of Kone & Rodwell for sitting on their pay cheques, yet one of their models for coming back up is that they'll be offer a couple of grand a week more than their competition can afford in wages per week. They're just going to attract a different kind of mercenary with much less ability using that logic? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
