I’ve already read that Rusyn is ready to step up at LW ffs

People have different ways of coping

Rusyn is f***ing hopeless and I won’t believe otherwise until I see it with my own eyes

 

[Nelson!]

It’s true, we have accepted the offer this evening. £17m plus extra if they stay up.

He’s talking it over with the family, Harte pushing the move, it’s not definite yet

Assume this is too in the weeds, but any indication why we have accepted a low offer relative to other deals with plenty time left in the window?

Hope he turns them down, but seems very unlikely.

 

[Dodgy]

Ipswich taking him is a proper blow, vile little club

They're really not, though.
C*nts at the minute, mind.

 

[ooh its a corner]

Well we’ve got some decent cash and a decent amount of time left.

Let’s get it spent.

Let’s see what happens now, big few days coming up

Like the big few days after we sold Ross Stewart.... Sod all will happen. That's the model.

 

[Hongkongphooey]

Kinda puts the “our team is worth X” into perspective.

It might be worth that to us, but to the owners…

The players are assets and the club is a commodity , I keep coming back to what KLD said about lessons being learned, it looks to me he knows f*ck all about what a successful and ambitious team means to our supporters.

 

[Father Larry Duff]

Yep this is the toughest one for years Clarke leaving. It’s really hard to take because I think if he stops we’ll get promoted. The club are so short sighted.

 

[SAFC_Jack]

While we can all quibble about the fee and lets be honest none of us will ever know the true ins and outs of this deal they surely can't be any Sunderland fan who never expected this to happen

Some had convinced themselves otherwise because it has taken so long, clearly.

 

[Roker Mackem]

Has the club actually stated how much he has gone for or is it what the media/press are putting forward?

We'll never know officially.

"Undisclosed fee"

 

[Oily Oily Oily]

FFFFUCKKKKK OFFF! We're in the Premier League. Used to be in League One with you. Remember? That team you played at the start of last season. Should've won. Didn't. Then Broady scored that deflected first and Hirsty let go a screamer for number two. Then, while your Director of Football or whatever it is was writing off a season, because he sacked that bloke with the massive mole on his fizz, the Londoner, swarthy type, double chin, looked like he enjoyed a nice cooked brekky once too often, well, where was I? Oh yeah, because he sacked him off and left his twat sidekick, the bloke who always wore that baseball cap, in charge, and your results went south quicker than a fat bird's tits after fifty, you missed the chance to compete excitingly with Leeds and Sarfampton and do last minute jammy winners. And lo, we went up, and are therefore so minted, we could keep you as our bitch and still have enough left to buy Liam Delap for fifteen massive. That Ipswich.

Wow, you would think we are Norwich with that rant

 

[Geppetto]

Gutted he's leaving, been fantastic having him here. Such an entertaining player to watch.

Assuming he does leave, I wish him all the best. One of my all time favourite Sunderland players.

 

[Cream Soda]

May be best to stay clear if this bombsite for a while

This f***ing club man

 

[dred73]

FML.
That’s me still not watching football then.

If you are not watching football, how do you know what Rusyn is like?

 

[Foreigner]

f***ing Mundle on the left man

 

[safcyank]

…with 11m quid plus all the wages. We lost 9m last year, so not sure if they are flogging Clarke so cheaply they are gonna be popping multiple deals thru

This is the genuine concern. With Clarke now definitely gone - I'd really like to see Benson (or another LW that's not a child) brought in to play while Mundle continues to develop. Then two of the three strikers will do. If they don't reinvest and we hit a rough patch, things will turn, even for the rational among us. A win this weekend, reinvestment made in attacking players and fans will move on.

 

[Roker Mackem]

Yep this is the toughest one for years Clarke leaving. It’s really hard to take because I think if he stops we’ll get promoted. The club are so short sighted.

Not the model sadly

Not sure if it’s short sighted or just potless
