And that is the honesty some of your fans wont admit to. 99% of the fans every club would welcome this investment. SAFC need an investor as Donald etc was just another Mike Ashley, he said the right things at the beginning! And your latest owner seems a bit invisible.
I note some of you think this Bloke is one of us in disguise, I sincerely hope not!

Oh he is….and the cheeky t*** has the gall to use my hero as his name. He couldn’t be more Bisto if he called himself Super Mac or Sheeraah.

The games they've won lately have all been winnable home games which tbf they've won them which is easier said than done but the 2 away games they've been awful Everton and spurs. They've got a few tougher games coming up now. They've never went to Chelsea and battered them like Brentford did.

Nobody in their right mind would have predicted 9 points from three of the best sides in the league below the top 7.

I also don’t really understand why Everton and Spurs are being focused on when the game before was also an away game which we won :lol:

Where do you get these figures from?Your sportswashed brain?

Agreed. It’s likely there won’t be that level of success in the summer with every signing. But I think credit is due for the approach to January - it must have been tempting to sign some bigger names as per Man City but by focusing on Trippier, Burn and Targett as unglamorous as that may have been, players that know the league, meant they slotted in seamlessly and our defence has become one of our biggest assets in moving away from the relegation zone.

Targett would be on for POTS if it wasn’t for Bruno tbh.

Sportswashed ☝️
 
I might be a hypocrite as I post on another team's forum but for the life of me I can't understand why so many mags post on this site. I don't think there's a single Spurs fan that posts on the Arsenal forums and although I've never visited a Spurs site I'd be pretty sure it's exactly the same for them.

I just don't get why you'd post on a bitter rival fan's forum - even just to wind them up. Have they nothing better to do with their time?

I'm on here mainly for the SMB crack and I'll occasionally post on PF but I'm not going to come on here and try to wind up and piss off Sunderland supporters. Just seems small-time to me.

They're weirdos mate. They come on here in their hordes and they literally attend our third division games. Mad.

I’ve nowt against any mag that wants to have a normal discussion on here.

But pretending to be a Sunderland fan and posting on here is sad as fuck.
 
Looks like Luke Edwards has been sportswashed! Having a tiff with a reporter from The Athletic.

I get that, and the three you mention were intelligent signings, but was it really due to the approach or the fact bids were rejected?

It was well documented they bid for Carlos, Ekitike (sp?) and Botman. Maybe even Zapata at Atlanta? They would also were in for Lingaard and DvdB? Any of them could have gone tits up. I mean look at Thiago at Liverpool - it took him an age to adjust.
