Didn't have a good time at Sunderland last season at all. Gelhardt is not an out and out striker from what I've seen. If he did come in I can't see him scoring more goals than Siggy, tbh. The LT reckons there's nothing in it either

Doubt JDT will expand on Travs departure to any great extent. Probably just the usual about needing experience, certainly won't talk about any fall out with hom

I doubt it tbh

On top of the potential O'Riordan signing? ...

Agree. He is just one of a number of players that have been below par for a few weeks now.

He's at Standard Liege on loan at the moment, so not sure how that works unless his contract there is terminated?

Wouldn't say it was his worst game yesterday but he has been a lot better. Had a big assist for Sammis goal though

We've been linked with a couple of full backs as well though, one of them was the Rotherham right back,/wing back yesterday. Didn't particularly impress me though

I realize this is probably pie in the sky stuff but just putting it out there. Would people be happy with this ? Do you think there could ever be a situation similar to what's happening with Jim Ratcliffe at Utd, whereby Venkys would be willing to accept a substantial cash injection from a third party for a minority share in the club ? They would maintain overall control ,but the new investors would have the say on any transfers in or out, thus removing the need for every decision to have to go through India before approval. I would imagine a figure of around £20 m spent wisely could see us challenging again for promotion to the Premier League, and the new investors would recoup their money back with the fortune to be gained. Like I say, probably get shot down for this, but it's just an idea to get us out of the meandering situation we're in at the moment. Plus, is that person or persons out there ?

That explains a lot over the recent centre back speculation

Looking like it could be a busier January than normal in and out

'fraid so

Actually think there's a decent player in Brittain, just that he along with most of the back 4 are going through a bad patch. Hyam looks like he came back too soon, Hill hasnt been the same player for a while and Carter also been off. Ironic that Wharton who was awful himself a few months ago has been our best defender these last few weeks. Wouldn't argue that full back is a position that should be a priority, even over a striker. Second worst defense in the league says it all

So, the silly season is upon us, looking forward to all the itk's keeping us informed of developments on the transfer front 🤔🤔 Happy New Year to all https://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/1211082539?-11198:839
