Methven still claiming credit


Not reading that as I’m not a fan of him but one thing I will say about those two. They stripped all the crap out of the club, like a £1k pw plant waterer, to make us more saleable. This has allowed KLD to buy a blank canvas and take us to where we are today.

Let’s face it, taking over a club which had Oviedo of £50k pw in league 1, more that’s most league 1 whole team budgets, just shows how close we were to going bust.

Like I say. Not a fan of those two but they did serve some purpose behind all of the other shit.

I’m not a fan of him as a bloke but he is right about the culture of the club around that time and the spirit about the place at the time
 
He had to do most of Donald's talking for him, always noticed that. I didn't mind him in the STID series tbh, club needed someone to come in and change the culture
 
Spoke with him yesterday, albeit via LinkedIn and he's actually regrets a fair bit of his time here. Wanted to use Charlton as an opportunity to right some wrongs in his mind. Still think he's a wanker mind, I've been trying to get business with him for years.

Show him this thread. He'll be over the moon with the outpouring of love for him from Sunderland fans.
 
He’s a total dick and we’re miles better off without him but these were the only people queuing up to buy the club after the “ambitious” and “well meaning” Ellis Short was done with it.
 
He wasn't very good like, it was Dreyfus that got them out the shit and even then we still only went up through the play offs.

If he was still in charge today we'd still be in league one.
