Wonder how many players turn up at the ground with their brand new Ferrari's, baby Bentley and Range Ronney's as the back room staff are being handed their P45's?

If the club hierarchy had any back bone or an ounce of moral fibre the useless, lazy, couldn't give a sh*t, workshy tw*ts in the team would be publicly shamed and wages docked for industrial misconduct.

The players like to use industrial law when it suits them - let them be subject to all the industrial laws - failure to put a shift in means wages docked.

They were a perfect way for the club to make more money, and the city to be rammed full of concert goers for a weekend and all the knock on effects with hotels pubs, restaurants etc etc.
Imagine the beer sales alone that can be knocked out at a concert

I'm sure it has been reported that the council and the club were putting loads of money into the concerts and making a loss. The pubs in the town will make a decent days trade from them, but it will hardly be life changing. I reckon if you asked the owners of the pubs would you rather have Premier League football and bigger crowds/people in watching on TV, or championship crowds and a couple of gigs they would choose the first one every time.
 
Not nice but might be what is needed in some instances. Think there are a lot of staff in jobs there earning mega money doing sweet fuck all. These are the fuckers that need outting.

Chances are though, it's the ones on the breadline who will be first out of the door. Time will tell, but it usually goes that way.

A weeks wages from one player would probably keep 1-2 people in a job for a year.. f***ing stinks when it's them fuckers pissing about every weekend knowing they still get paid at the end no matter what they do.
 
Think is we cleared the wages bill in the summer with about 20 players gone who would have been on good wages. Moyes has then replaced that deadwood with more deadwood

It's shouldn't have had to have been an either or, especially since the concerts were during the summer so no footie then. It's the putting money into staging the concerts yet still losing money...I assume someone (probably not)at some point went to other concert venues, especially stadiums and asked about how they staged them, what worked what didn't, the costs involved etc so the club didn't get into the position of losing money.
 
If you're employed by a struggling premier league football club, you have to be aware that your job security is dependent on the success of the team.

If anyone is surprised that their job is at risk, considering the likelihood of relegation of a club that struggles every season and the financial ramifications of relegation, then they want their heads examining, frankly.

Yep, blame the little people as jobs are so easy to get in Sunderland, they MUST have had a choice and chose stupidly.

I could be wrong, but I think you pay the promoter a fee up front. Once that fee is paid it's up to you to then make a profit on it. These promoters know their onions and I'm taking it that someone has been taken for a ride.

But isn't that the point, not getting the right people in for the jobs required, and we can equate that from the chairman through to all positions in the club for years
 
The well off looking after themselves again, 12 million wasted on the likes of Fletcher, but worry not! we can save a few bob sacking people that earn a pittance, pheeeeepp, pheeeep, ALL ABOARD THE GRAVY TRAIN!!!!!!
 
Its just the club preparing for relegation. We are going down so we should be looking to cut costs as much as we can. We think its bad now but we are in for years of real misery in my opinion. We will look back in five years time and class these as the good times
 
just an idea following on from the Nissan visit.Why not take the players to the local job centre plus for a day and then treat them to a night at the cinema. I've heard that film"i Daniel Blake is a good watch"
