If we'd kept Mannone .....

[filfy]

I think we would have had at least another 10-15 points and thereore be mid table mediocrity instead of relegation fodder.

It’s probably closer to 20 , our keepers are woeful

 

[ebb]

No disrespect to Vito but have you seen where Reading are in the league ? - and this after making the playoff final last year ?

I'm not saying he is a world beater but just an average goalkeeper which the three we have are not.

 

[Alfa]

Manone wanted away but with the fee we got for him we could probably got Pantillimon back.

Chris Coleman admitted his players couldn’t have given any more today as they fell to defeat at the hands of Sheffield Wednesday.


What ???

 

[Kubicki26]

Keepers have cost us a place in the championship.

Ellis short has cost us a place in the championship . Giving no money so we have to sign these shit goal keepers

 

[Chizno1]

Rose tinted glasses. He's made plenty mistakes this season; two against Burton alone were as bad as owt we've seen from rioter or camp.

Bullshit, Mannone is head and shoulders above either of those two wankers mistakes or no.

Mad isnt it ? - I was fearful today once I heard Kone was out but tbh I doubt he would have made much difference as our full backs / wide players always allow the cross to come in

Totally agree. It feels like basically if the opposition get a shot on target it’s a goal. Derbys one shot on target was there only goal. To be fair Wednesday had to stack up 5 shots on target for their 3 goals today. It’s beyond funny and was a shockingly bad decision. Bain was absolutely purring about the sale last September.

 

[manilla]

I second that even though I wasn’t his biggest fan he’s head and shoulders above the clowns we have now

 

[kelsoray]

It was 2mill towards the debt, and that's all that wanker short thinks about.

Fuck the team, he wants his gold coins back, and if that screws the club over in the process, well that's not his problem anymore.

Totally sums everything up Short is only interested in money and couldnt give a toss about the future of the club

 

[GipseT]

We would be talking about a boring 12th place.

I f***ing hate what Short has done to this club.

Short really doesn't care if he destroys the club

 

[DJM]

Absolutely, it's said every time one of the Camp, Ruiter or Steele has a stinker, which is pretty much every week

At least only one has a bad game each time out. No mistakes from Steele or the inured Ruiter today.

 

[janey]

And yet when it was announced he was leaving loads were delighted.
Others suggested it might be better to see who replaced him before being so glad to see him go

The Debt is the main concern, nothing else matters.

Anyone can see...

 

[CARLOS CLASS]

Bain said it was good business...

The absolute ducking charlatan. I absolutely despise the oily twat

Exactly. We pay for Short's mistakes.

 

[Mallard]

With the benefit of hindsight we should of kept him yes, but the goalkeeper situation typifies Sunderland by replacing bang average players with worse. It is amazing that Sunderland have had 3 cracks at replacing Mannone with a keeper of equal standard and failed.

 

[xmfd]

Forced out for £2m get in Bain ya played a blinder there like.

 

[chr1s1973]

Well we didn't. Welcome to Ellis Short and Martin Bain's SAFC.

He wanted to leave and the managers decided to sign shit replacements. Nothing to do with Short or Bain.
