TheBrownBottle Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 It is gearing up for a hell of finish for the PO places like. Millwall vs Blackburn and Preston NE vs the mackems final day, as well as Swansea vs West Brom (Swansea could still be in the mix at that point), and Coventry vs the smoggies. If Preston somehow win at Sheff Utd - who in fairness have nothing to play for at this point, given that their win vs WBA guaranteed promotion and they can't catch Burnley mathematically - would mean a Preston win guarantees they finish above at least the mackems. It is in sunderland's hands now, mind - provided they win their games and hope that Millwall don't do the same while scoring four more goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkeye Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 Even just a single season on the Premier League would bring in money the likes of which the Don (do they still call him that?) could only ever dream of. Talking about 100mil to finish last plus some delightful marrashute payments to help the transition back into the Championship... It is basically - or would be - all he ever dreamed of when he bought Sun'lun. Maybe even enough money to print something on the front of their seeyson cards. Even the young kid that has some money in a trust fund would be in a whole different world with Premier League money to play with... I would rather they stayed skint frankly... hate everything about the club! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donald has basically nowt to do with the club now, He owns a mere 9% which is becoming diluted smaller and smaller after every transfer window. KLD has played him like a fiddle.

Stal Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 I haven't really kept up with their boardroom antics. Donald was the chairman with that methvan bloke, is that right? Who/what is KLD and how are they involved? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking in from the outside obviously so I might be wrong. But it seems you're now being run something close to properly which clearly wasn't the case when pinky and perky were in charge and left to their own devices.

Optimistic Nut Posted April 28, 2023 Share Posted April 28, 2023 (edited) No doubt Everton didn't turn up tonight just like the sides in our other 16 league wins didn't. (Banned so can't check) They were convinced we were going to do what they did in their 7th placed finishes in January the absolute cretins.

He's diluted his shares drastically at every opportunity to the point now he only owns 9%, Donald is now on the verge of buying Eastleigh again so he will be gone imminently.

One of, If not the first name on the team-sheet every single week. I guess you know better than them though. ‘Bally’ was first name on the team sheet too, but he was fucking shit as well. Being semi decent relative to the others in a shit team doesn’t make you any good. Those managers you mention are picking a team in L1/the Championship. It’s a country mile away from being a PL standard, let alone a ‘good’ standard. The standard of the championship this year has been the poorest I can ever think of. Let’s see how good he is when/if you make it back to the PL- going by his attempts at tackling this year, he’d be suspended the vast majority of the season.

Methven is already out the door. I'm just looking at it from the point of view that 9% of something (especially a Premier League something if you do go up) is better than 90% of nothing. From the outside it looked like Donald didn't have a clue what he was doing, was running the club into the ground until KLD steadied the ship and he should thank his lucky stars that he's getting out with anything. Obviously I'm not as familiar with the goings on at sunderland as you are so if I've got that wrong then fair enough. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
