Wtf wrote that list? If that's last season's list then van hecke would be way above most of those players. Was it someone writing up random names?

Hugely disappointing if its 3 and 2 of them are caulker and hyam. This wasn't the window we were told it was going to be. Yet again venkys look like they are refusing to spend much money. I fear jdt will walk by the end of the season

Hes interesting. Born in Scotland but only because his father was stationed there. Move to England at 18 months. Has played for Scotland under age group. He does score 1 or 2 goals. Before Coventry he played mostly non league lower league football. He might be a late bloomer

Barcelona drawn with bayern. Had to happen. As for the English teams ( couldn't care less about Scottish teams) decent draws.

That'll be your Gussets

Would be hilarious if Mowbray was appointed a day before the game

I'd take a removal van

How is Gordon worth 60 million? When Brereton a full international and a far better goals to game ratio is only worth 15 to 20 million

When Is the draw for the third round

Pears

Rovers look completely on tip according to stats. Need to make it count

Yet we were portrayed as the devil incarnate when we protested

Talking of van hecke. The Sunderland fans messageboard is full of arrogant tw*ts. Calling us a tiny club compared to theirs. What the fuck have they ever achieved in 80 or 90 years. Complete non entity club. They're like a poundland Newcastle

A bit different. It's expected that clubs have numerous nationalities. Wolves have 11 Portuguese players and 2 English players. They're buying from the Portuguese Market. Something wrong with that

This is mowbray's mess. Effing about for 5 years. Signing dross. Allowing player contracts to run out. Signing loan after loan. Even pep couldn't cope with this mess

The ref is anelly retentive

Burnley have been hit and miss and sam Allardyce had 20 odd years in the job when he Took over. Jdt is a relative novice In comparison

I'm laughing at how they've won fuck all in 80 odd years

Of course it's relevant. Hes not had the chance to implement his own ideas

Hes had a couple of months in the job. Give him a break. Mowbray did eff all in 5 years

I hope the English club wins today against the Portuguese club. Its 0-0 so far

Htf can Sunderland promise van hecke champions league football in 3 seasons? Is this a joke. They'll more than likely go back down

Better not be van hecke. Can't stand Sunderland. Tinpot club, overrated fan base

The project has many conatations. He could mean promotion then stabilising the club from there. I don't think he wants to be a championship manager for the next 3 years

I don't think jdt wants a slow build. He's not a bullshiter like Mowbray, he's ambitious. He's basically a winner that wants success now. Mowbray was more interested in filling his pockets. They have to back him with some dough. Otherwise it's back to the likes of coyle and another decade of crap
