How would everyone feel if Big Mike bought Sunderland?

He obviously still has an interest in football and the potential there (NUFC, Rangers) he could easily bankroll a fight back up to the Premier League.

If he sells Newcastle that is.

Would you take the SOL plastered in sports direct adverts and get guaranteed promotion to the championship?

I would have thought that was for advertisement. Which logically would only apply to tv games etc.
It's just the sports direct thing that is the problem. Other than that he appears a very decent owner who was dealt a bad hand.

I don't even think it's that much of a problem tbh. Wonga for instance was worse if the moral card is being played.

Live within your means is a sensible approach to any endevour never mind a footie club and the reason were in league one.

He uses NUFC to advertise his sports direct brand, which requires premier league coverage. He wouldn't consider buying a league one club, not that I think it'd be a good thing for us anyway.
