[HitchBerg]

You're being silly now. Time for bed.

Buzz off.

 

[Perryqhill]

Good luck on the rest of your career Dan.

 

[Idlewild Mackem]

Every poster on here would have dreamed of what he's achieved. Love him, wish him nowt but the best.

You're almost suggesting they are the 4 best central midfielders in the history of football.

Eh? That's a mad post

Good luck Dan .Prove Sunderland wrong

Is it official

 

[Rokeroar]

We have, could have been a few million in the coffers for him, glad he's gone not good enough for the top flight and another wage off the bill, you could tell he didn't want to be here, spat his dummy out instead of trying to fight for his place, no heart.

I recommend you read what 09 has said about him this season, might change your mind

 

[Nope]

Best of luck Dan. A big part of us being where we are now. cheers lad.

It depends who you want to listen to, for me not O'Nien, why just because he's been here for a few years ?

No because he knows more about what goes on behind the scenes than you do

Why do you feel sorry for him he’s loved the dream n captained he’s boyhood club to promotion. He’s a good championship player so we’re letting him play at he’s level. What’s to feel sorry about?

Empathy … check it out in a dictionary
Good luck lad, sorry it ended this way. You along with the other 4 double promotion lads will always be legends long after you have hung up your boots.

 

[El Gen]

best of luck to the lad. Shame it hasn't worked for him here, but i'm sure he'll go on to have a cracking career

Tribute thread.
The equivalent of a leaving card at work
Filled with messages from people you don't know or will instantly forget
We'll meet again xxx

 

[Jasper]

Is it official

Will be today

 

[FatDrummer]

Just had a quick skim through this thread. It’s not really a tribute if you quantify it.

He played for his boyhood club.
200 total appearances.
He captained it.
He lifted the Play-Off trophy at Wembley as captain.
He was a big part of the squad that took us from League 1 to the Premier League.

That is all that needs to be said.
No “back to his level” proviso shite.

Good luck Dan. Hope to see you back next season in the Prem with Ipswich.

Is there a link to 09s comments, wouldn't mind reading them myself.

 

[The Archer]

Good luck to the lad. He lived the dream and captained SAFC to a win at Wembley and there are precious few players than can say that.

It’s a shame that for whatever reason he didn’t get chance to establish himself in the Prem with us, but I wish him nothing but the best for the future.

 

[Steve Leeds]

All the Best Dan. Sunderland through & through
