Lack of transfers concerning?

[gipetto]

Well it’s give them time to look at them and asses them it could save us a fortune

Hawkes isn’t getting start ??? the season hasn’t even started ! he’s getting linked with West Ham and Spurs etc that suggests he’s good enough for league 1

West Ham and Spurs man, it's a load of rubbish. The lad is 22 already, he has to do something this season really. I hope he gets a chance but should have been involved sooner. Why didn't he start tonight? What is the point of starting Grigg and O'Brien, they are both shite.

We seem to be in the same position as when Short closed his wallet albeit with less debt

Hawkes is an attacking midfielder and got 20 goals last season would you rather we spunked another couple of million on some 28 yr old from Shrewsbury or something

Wrexham fans reckon Callum McFadzean is on his way there.

Poor bastards

Why didn't he make a league appearance last season instead of persisting with O'Brien then?

Who said anything about spending £2m on a 28 y/o? You always come back with rubbish like that, no one has suggested that.

So what do you suggest then signing another aiden o brien ? or giving someone a chance who could make us millions

 

[Northern Munkey]

Victoria sponge. Got to have a good layer of buttercream tho. And don't you dare put normal f***ing cream in it like the cafe I went to last weekend.

Over a red velvet? Madness I tell you!

Don't do it Wrexham.

Poor bastards

They deserve everything they get negatively. Not loved by us.

Because it was his first season at this level and maybe he wanted to have a look at him and see if he felt he could cope rather than throw him in at the deep end when we chasing promotion, a years a long time when your a young lad

Yes because Josh Hawkes and a 2 million pound 28 year old from Shrewsbury or somewhere are the only two players on the entire planet.

Just the way it is. Sustainability is the aim moving forward. There are going to be financial loses this hear and it's a new culture moving forward. Had to be really. Have to trust the process. No choice really.

Sunderland being sustainable with cat 1 academy in league 1 is next to impossible imo. Our strategy should be to be smart with signings, but we must aim to get out ASAP.

..there's a bit of a stand off regarding who we want/ got offers in for, you heard the same?

Feels like there’s a stand off over who we want to sell or not as well (Wright).

Reading between the lines I don’t think Johnson and Speakman get on

I'm beginning to agree, unless we are happy to be a perennial feeder club and remain in league one with little or no ambition for eternity.

That sounds pretty positive, hopefully Speakman gives him the bullet sooner rather than later!

..hmmm.....why give him the bullet?

 

[Maxie]

Deeper.

Deeper for KS & LJ or deeper as in other reasons to selling Wright

Sounds like LJ wants him but may not get his way
