He's away man might as well get use to it.

Another weakening of the squad due to penny pinching at a time when we're at our lowest ebb and being told we have lots of money. f***ing scumbags that own us, lying f***ing scumbags.

He is not ad good as people make out he has cost us plenty goals. The problem is he will be replaced with somebody worse (probably Burge)

Burge will only be here a year and whoever becomes his understudy will be out number one in 12 months time. Likely to be Alnwick.

It’s been documented already he wants a big increase and Donald is struggling to meet it. He’s a journeyman and unfortunately I expect him to leave for nothing. I would, however, lay the blame with his agent or him before I’d blame Donald on this one.

You can't blame someone for taking more money elsewhere if they can get it man, fuck sake.

If he can get better money at a shitter club then that's absolutely Donald's fault.

I can't see our owners offering contracts to anyone until they have an idea when we'll get out of Covid 19, we could be playing in front of empty stadiums for the next year, how can you budget for that.
I'll be amazed if we renew one contract or sign one player until we know whats going to happen.
Its going to be the same for every club that relies on gate money as there main source of income

We'll be weaker again next year. We'll be sliding down the table under this mob.

League 2 within two years

how do you know they are penny pinching? McLaughlin could want a ridiculous wage for all we know

The Dortmund model

 

[Maravilla]

Does anyone who isn't that bothered about him leaving seriously believe we will be replacing him with better - or even as good? And if so, how the hell do they think we will ever get out of this God forsaken league?

In the last 18 months, we have replaced Cattermole with Dobson, Oviedo with Hume, and Maja with Grigg.

It isn't a coincidence we are getting worse, and we will get worse yet if McLaughlin leaves.

Get the feeling we'll be heading out of the league within a couple of years if the Chuckle Brothers remain in charge. Only problem is it'll be down to League 2 as opposed to going up to the Championship.

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

We will be?

Ok, in my opinion we will. We have weakened the squad from last season and have no parachute money coming in now. Do you expect us the strengthen?
With Burge number one instead of McLaughlin, we'll be weaker in that position for a start.

 

[Fact Hunt]

I don’t think we will be in a position to offer contracts until 20/21 is sorted in terms of live crowds or not.

This you misunderstood - I was implying we're already on the downward spiral.

Ah sorry mate, I thought you were implying the opposite. I can't see anything but mid table our third season in this league.

 

[Exile in Ayr]

He will go to Blackburn because Hibs have a better keeper and he is ex Hearts anyway. Donald will weaken the team further but he has lost the fans so he won't survive for much longer.

 

[Sons of The Wear]

It'll be the fans fault. #sunderlanddisease
