Sell - Cattermole and Colback.

Win - 10 million big ones.

Apologies to - Cattermole and Colback.

Blame - Steve Bruce.

Why blame Bruce - Bought too many central midfielders.

Money in the bank, do what - Sign quality attacking players. Better late than never.

Result - Sunderland become better team.

Conclusion - Sunderland win more games.
 
The ****test article I've ever read, what's the point in selling one of your most promising young players for small amounts of money. What "top quality attacking players" can you get for £10m? Jeeeez. The actual solution is to not spend money on fringe players in the first place. Better for Sunderland to sign one first rate player instead of 3 that aren't going to be in the first XI.
 
To be fair everyone i speak to who isn't a Mag rates Cattermole, funny that.

He can tackle, very well,but then he gets a rush of blood and arrives a quarter of an hour too late, this happens maybe 2-3 times a match.

Seems people overlook the amount of balls he wins, the organising and the directing, and the fact that our results are markedly worse when he isn't in the side.

He's a ****ing prick though, and Meyler is a better player.

Ahhh BB is on. Fancy a discussion? I've been set the challenge to reach 4900 posts by 23:46 tonight. Done over 100 since that time yesterday.
 
Regarding Cattermole, his fouling cost you the derby, that's the way I look at it.

How's the business going?


Pretty decent mate, going through the changeover time when the tourists **** off, we've done a canny job of hooking Spaniards as well, but i've seen a big drop in the money coming in, as i work on percentages of door/bar etc

Think i'm gonna piss off to Mexico for a couple of weeks, get ready for the winter programme!

Going to Mexico for some sun eh? <laugh>

Hope the money loss isn't bad, and it will probably be just down to everyone going home. Do you still have things going on over here?

It's not too bad mate, probs about a 3rd, which i can cope with.

Aye still have things running in England, supposed to be doing a launch in London next month but it's probably gonna be a bit delayed, pretty much gonna stop the North East stuff, cos it doesn't make enough money to justify me ****ing about, and whenever i come home now, i just wanna see my family, then get ****ed up with the lads!

The Mexico thing is just an urge like, i usually have a holiday about this time of year, and just cos i live somewhere sunny, doesn't stop me wanting to get away and do **** all fora bit!

Suggestion, to get your posts, go on the City board, and tell them that no amount of money will ever buy them the class of United, there'll be ****ing hell on!
 
I love it how the Skunks seem to know so much about our players...The only member of their team I could name is Joey Barton....Oh wait a minute...<whistle>
 
Anyone who reads my posts (anyone?) will know i rate Cattermole. However, given our managers poor understanding of how to create a team, we need to lose a few defensive players to gain attacking players. Alas, the only players i can think of who we CAN sell are Cattermole and Colback. Can hardly sell Gardner or Vaughan having just signed the lads. It'll be crap to see Cattermole and Colback go, but we have strong cover in their position.
