“SUNDERLAND. New interest for Donald shares. Three parties sniffed since Mark Campbell backed off. Deal would be less shares for less cash by sounds. But that changes on a weekly basis.”
Bless xxGood, Donald needs to go, he has been a total disaster for the club.
You're a complete muppet if you think that like.
He got the club for next to nothing, he has sold off any player worth anything and ran us on parachute payments, from day one he has been taking about selling us on rather than planning for the future. Rather than getting an experienced manager in he took the cheap option and went for Ross who clearly isn’t up for the task, even after leading us to the worst position in our history he has stuck with him.... He continues to make all the mistakes of the past - putting the wrong players on big contracts... and now apparently there’s no money left. Brilliant, sooner he goes the better.
Yeah but realistically the club is still at the bottom price because it's in league 1. It's not going to go any lower than this.

We'll all be in the graveyard before that happens ffsBecause when/if we get back to the top flight his share will be worth shit loads more than it is now in league One
That only works if we get promotedBecause when/if we get back to the top flight his share will be worth shit loads more than it is now in league One

At one point it was a straight choice between Ross and Chris Wilder, Ross was the cheaper option by farThe bit about Ross just being a cheap option is a bit harsh mind. Yes we could have gone for a more experienced option but we had that with Moyes, Grayson and Coleman (and Allardyce like, just for balance). Most were desperate for us not to go to the merry go round, to get someone young, someone on the way up rather than the way down, someone who needed to succeed for the good of their career rather than not really being arsed if they get sacked thanks to the pay off they'd get. I'm not exactly happy with how he's done, and if we don't start well I'd happily see him sacked, but I wouldn't criticise the decision to bring him in, he seemed (and might still turn out, fingers crossed) to be a decent young coach
Why.Good, Donald needs to go, he has been a total disaster for the club.
He hasnt been a disaster. He was the right person to stabalise the club but he is not the right person to lead it into its future.Good, Donald needs to go, he has been a total disaster for the club.
This is how I'd thought they'd go. Buy the best players from the lower leagues, the best PL youth players that get released etc.I'm all for being sensible but I also want the club to spend, after the way we were another year in league one isn't the end of the world but a third year would be really poor.
This is the season we need to get out of this league then we can start to enact a long term plan for youth investment which we have started to make use of in the last few years looking at 16 year olds who get released from bigger clubs academies.
