    Absolute madness not to sign him, loves the club, one of us & sure he would encourage younger players...just look at the way he was on sidelines in his last game

    Ah I see. He would smash league 1 definitely. Maybe get him on loan in Jan if it's not working out at Coventry :1980_boogie_down:

    F*ck that. He's tainted now playing for them c*nts. Unless of course he does absolutely sweet FA for them and then I would have him back.

    RR: You were linked with a move back to the Stadium of Light last year when Simon Grayson was here, but in the end you signed for Mick McCarthy at Ipswich. How close were you to coming back?

    MW: There was a lot of talk between myself, my agent and Sunderland but Sunderland needed to move players out to make the move happen and they couldn’t get them out at that time fast enough for the move to happen.

    I was on their list of a few potential players and I’ll admit I tried to push the move through, but Sunderland had a lot of players on their hands at that time on big wages and the move had to be right for them. They couldn’t shift them following relegation for the move to happen and the financials meant it could happen.

    Did I want it to happen? Absolutely.

    I remember I sat in the car with my agent in Glasgow and he said “okay, there’s clubs interested, but unfortunately we don’t have Sunderland” and I just went “argh...s**t”, because I knew it was close, but it was a case of they needed to move a player out to balance the wages etc. That player didn’t move and it fell through. That’s football I guess.

    Hopefully I can come back in the future though, who knows.

    Good to hear but basically not as committed to us as I'd hoped.

    You must be easily pleased then.

    Poor goalkeeper, we need better.

    He's poor by PL standards ...

    ... more than good enough in this league.

    ps, I'm far from easily eased, just realistic.

    Hi mate,

    I heard last week (posted on takeover thread) that 2 of the 4 had definitely rejected contracts. I believed one would sign and the other in further negotiations.

    Seen someone say all 3 now leaving..shouldn't be a surprise..more money and Championship game time on the cards.

    I expected more than 1 new signing this week..something may happen over the weekend.

    We will get players..patience needed..I know our squad is thin but players are coming.

    Once we find out which of the 'bottlers' are going there will be movement I've no doubt.

    I'm looking at it like this: Better players will take longer to get over the line. The ground work will have already been done, and the floodgates are opening. Exciting month ahead!

    No matter who is in charge, no matter who the owner is. We still dont sign players early in the window. Odd that.
