    From brief hope about a takeover to the academy shutting down, sounds about right.

    Their goal is clearly to get promoted even if long term damage is done to the club.

    There's no guarantee that all this **** will lead to us getting promoted though!

    Just seen on Twitter that the academy director has apparently left the club.

    No, it's someone else tweeting that Paul Reid has left the club. Retweeted by Roker Report.

    As long he's not leaving because they're closing the academy.

    I put this on about a month ago and no I didn’t have tongue in cheek but I thought even he can’t be that stupid he would actually have a price on his head and there would be plenty chipping in.

    To me, SD looks after his own, so he wouldn't have gotten rid of Reid unless he has either walked himself or there's soon to be no Academy for him to run. Although, I am just a pessimist when it comes to Sunderland nowadays.
    If the news of the club withdrawing their input to furlough is true that's shocking. A letter to say they've cut people's pay by 20% is spineless for me unless it's a confirmation letter of a meeting / discussion. Worrying times for the club though, it's becoming more and more apparent that there is a distinct lack of cash flow (naturally considering the current climate). If only there was £20m of parachute payments still in the coffers to help ease the concerns...
