    That's true about the serenity. Something has definitely rocked the boat.

    The sooner Donald is completely gone, the better. Even if its just so we have some clarity. I think while we're in League 1 and he's quiet he's largely irrelevant. As soon as we need to push on in a higher division then I think they have to find a way to get him out.

    I know your a good poster mate, i know Smug personally aswell and he speaks highly of you, so for that reason i apologise for venting my frustrations the way i did last night mate, and the way i reacted towards you. Its not a good time right now as you already know.
    I hope we can move on from that and still both contribute in a respectful way towards eachother.

    I acted in a way that often bites me on the ar$e throughout life, and like i said i apologise.

    even for you i would have to say no, the price is to high,i watch for entertainment value and love of the local club, but this is just taking the piss and our supporters don't deserve it. We will be lucky to muster 20 thou at the next home match at this rate, KLD has seen whats capable here with an idiom of success 38,000 and more, but there are as as many mistakes being made as when Short was in charge. I pine for success of my beloved club and hope a remedy is just around the corner.

    Yep

    I was thinking earlier today that I started watching football and supporting Sunderland when the ball had laces and an inner tube and was very heavy. My first pair of boots had a big strong toecap and you tapped in studs with a hammer.

    Sunderland have never been so bad as they are now and the incentive to go and watch them less.... the umbilical cord has or is in the process of being severed.

    The mags have an owner who chop journalist to bits and kill gays, but cos it makes them rich they are happy, Even a rich golfer Mickelson thinks they are beyond the pale

    In general, FOOTBALL IS JUST AWFUL ATM.

    Roger don't you think this season is being stage managed? KLD said at the beginning of the season lack of promotion wasn't a problem. So why would the team be weakened in January? why push crowd numbers down? Why is AN playing hoofball when it's not his style? KLD released share allocation which upset the fans, he also has some very clever advisors. If revenue drops then directors have to fund the shortfall. No promotion then no increase in club value. I think he is forcing the chuckle brothers out and the upset behind the scenes in January is they realise what's happening. It's hard on the fans but ultimately if it leads to what we all want then I think KLD will be forgiven and I think results will be controlled with a buyout coming quickly and hopefully not too late where there may be a chance to recover the season. How about that for a conspiracy theory?

    Excellent post mate, and i for one agree with you totally, i mentioned a scenario nearly the same as yours, in The future thread, obviously he cant let the fans and media into what he is doing, but the chuckle brothers know their time is up, Whilst they tried to shaft KLD on the transfer of Club, he will have experts advising him how to sort those plebs out,for the smallest amount possible, So whilst its hard to see whats happening to the club and the anguish the fans are going through, i hope when its sorted it doesn't detract from them coming back into the fold
