    Has there been a recent poll that you can point me to? I'm basing my judgement on the comments I read across the various social media channels.

    If we announce that we are just tarting up SJP then that is a very worrying sign for how long PIF plan to stick around IMO. A huge statement of intent needs to be made this summer and a new stadium needs to be the priority. I think the vast majority of the support have now come around to the idea that SJP is now hindering our progression as a club, so the owners should quit worrying about making the decision to build elsewhere within the city centre.

    The amount of humble pie being gorged on by people will be something to behold if this happens.
  4. Good, not great. IMO. And definitely not worth £50m.
  5. This is my worry too. If we blow £50m on Solanke this summer then that will be confirmation for me that things are going in the wrong direction.
  6. Honeymoon well and truly over now I’m afraid. And his position needs to be under scrutiny for the rest of this season. I don’t think it’s guaranteed that he will be here next season. This summer is absolutely crucial and if we get it wrong it will shaft us for a significant amount of time. It’s a worrying time IMO. Awful performances for months and we have now lost our much-fabled Director of Football, with one of the reasons apparently being that he doesn’t have the best relationship with the manager. Are we certain that the right bloke is leaving the club? We have had rotten luck this season but what is happening on the field right now is simply unacceptable.
  7. What exactly are these stats describing?
  8. Finally, they are starting to catch on. https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/what-is-the-point-in-sunderland-afc.1628318/#post-40206224

    Match Atmosphere

    Lots of chatter on social media about Leeds' brilliant atmosphere at Elland Road last night. Interesting how looking at this video of it, & the demographic seems to be widespread kids in their 20s and early 30s. An all new extended SJP should allow us to get this kind of crowd into our stadium.
  10. It also took them nearly 100 years into their history to overtake us on trophies won. Or 102 years if you’re just talking domestic trophies. Not once before 1968 had they ever been ahead of us on trophies won. They are obviously a giant now but that’s only happened in the last 30 years. Busby made them big and Ferguson made them elite. Before the 1950s though they were the literal definition of mediocrity.
  11. Twelve managers in the last 10 years. Or 20 managers if you included caretakers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Sunderland_A.F.C._managers
  12. Utter shambles of a football club.
  13. I've watched the first couple of episodes of this series and I've never seen so many unhealthy-looking people as those in this documentary. Not even on trips to Blackpool, and that takes some doing.
  14. Unfortunately, we will. They are correct in what they are saying on red cafe. It will get negotiated down to about £12m IMO.
