    This is why I always say to people imagine if we weren't ****e...

    My whole life weve been ****e apart from moments and even then we weren't amazing.

    Yet we still turn up in our numbers it almost feels as if owners know this so they can take the piss.

    We need to stop that and I know it sounds bad as they are deluded ****ers but we could take a leaf out of their book.

    Not OTT with nonce vicars and that but start making a stand with our feet and making it well aware we wont put up with it publically

    I'm starting to think it's because we allow it as we will turn up no matter what.

    I reckon a good thing to do would be all turn up to the first home game that we have when it restarts but if SD is still in charge and they are taking the piss nobody buy a ticket and go in.

    Just all turn up and cheer the lads on from outside listening to the radio

    I guess that the only positive for us that comes from a salary cap is that we should make a decent profit for the season once fans are allowed back in.

    If we had decent owners that money could be banked and spent wisely to make us competitive in the championship. Imho a lot of other clubs would struggle to be competitive financially if promoted.

    Only problem is that we don't have good owners and you just know that any savings won't be spent wisely.

    It'll depend very much on whether or not Donald thinks he can hold out. He's got a lot of things against him at the moment. He's shown already that the slightest hint that the fans are not happy with him, he'll run for cover and look for a potential way out. It may have to be that fans vote with their feet to get him to budge, but we can't just sit back and do nothing. Our club is nothing without us - Ha'way The Lads!!!!

    It's a dilemma mate, isn't it?

    Do we cancel our season cards and go game to game, with a few boycotts, as you've mentioned, and try to force his hand - but risk hitting the club hard.

    Or do we continue as we are, and protest before and after each game.

    Donald has shown me nothing to suggest he can turn our situation around, or that we can trust him. I really fear for our future, if he remains in charge and we just accept the situation like we have done for the past two years.

    It would hit the club but I'm sure once they **** off the season card numbers go back to normal

    Either way we can't just sit back and do nowt. I shudder to think what sort of squad will be assembled for next season.

    He’ll have done the maths and deduced that NUFC are the world’s second favourite club, just as he worked out that snooping on Facebook and telling lies lets you run the country

    But the way it’s looking we can’t go to any games for a season anyway.

    I’m still renewing so at least we have a club to support, but we just know we will all just sit back and see how it unfolds. We just accept any old **** given to us. Let’s be honest, there are still some Sunderland fans out there who can’t see that he has destroyed the academy, taken us backwards, but still wants a profit, gave his mates jobs who had little to no experience and still can’t see that we as fans have been consistently misled by the pair of them.

    If finance is so desperate why did SD insist on keeping the academy running with prem league status and cost, and appoint another MD rather than run it himself? Also. why no update from the club as to the promise that the club would be sold by the end of May, even if just to say that it will not?
