    As TLL has said it might be best to write this season off and start again fresh in league 1 next year.

    We got really lucky when Markus Liebherr bought us and coupled with a ruthless Chairman in Cortese we had a great 5-6 years following relegation to league 1.

    You get the right owner and team around them and you'll be back in the Prem in no time.

    Agreed, especially with that support behind them.

    We were immensely luck with Markus and Nicola though and there's plenty of bad owners out there.

    Yeah especially seeing how close we were to being taken over by Sisu at one point. Dodged a hell of a bullet there.

    Your net debt from the 2016 accounts is £63m, which costs £6m a year to service, and including that you made a £6m profit, so the debt burden isn’t an issue.

    As for putting new potential owners off, it won’t, as any debt is in effect owned by the current stakeholders and will be factored into the value of their shares when they sell. That’s how it works when you sell a business mate.

    That's two things I've never done actually. You see people who wake up outside and that or piss themselves etc. when they've had too much beer

    Never done any of that, always find my way home somehow no matter how ****ed n never pissed myself when too drunk either.

    ...hate to burst the bubble but it's actually just Matth ... he's bid an old style, soon to be withdrawn from circulation, tenner, plus back copies of his mum's Next Directory catalogues (some pages in the women's lingerie sections are somewhat stuck together) ... the national press got hold of the story and the next thing you know "Virgin bids for Sunderland" <whistle>
