Summer window

Not once in any description of the model has a transfer figure been mentioned, if your reasoning is right which player did we buy for 500k and sell for 3m to allow us to buy Clarke. We are not short of money, If the club thought a player who is valued at 8M will be worth 30M in 3 years and ticks all the boxes they will buy him. What they do have a limit on in the championship is wages, this is why we haven't been paying 7M to 8M in transfer fees, because most players selling at that fee will want more wages, this lad has great potential to go on to be worth a lot of money however will probably be on peanuts where he is, so coming to us will be a huge pay rise within our wage structure. This is probably why we are monitoring the South America market so much

 

I could see the Mags buying part of a player, maybe a finger, leg or hand but not us

 

It wasn't long ago there were plenty fans calling the club because we were going to accept an offer from West ham for Ballard then the lad signs a new contracr

 

Just seen Mowbray on SSN, didn't catch what he said but I've now got a question.

He was wearing a top with TM on it, what do the club do with all the personaliaed gear when a manager or coach leaves?

Can't imagine the departing person wants to keep it, maybe there's a huge cupboard at the AOL with old personalised teamwear?

 

Rogues Gallery in the boiler room - training top with the former manager's initials is added to the next spot on the wall.

 

What was said?

 

Nevermind, seen it. What a prick.

 

Sunderland fans have,are, patient these last 10 horrible years and 60 per years before that.....I can wait a bit longer. I'm more positive now than I have been in those 60 years.

 

Agent being a ****er, no shock there.

 

Ian Harte really is thick as **** So ****e at his job that he thought the contract he negotiated for Jack Clarke last year was good enough, and now bitching on Twitter because he can’t get him a move away. Absolute rat.

Then deletes it because he’s suddenly realised how thick he actually is. Would love Clarke to ditch him.

 

Wouldn't be surprised if Harte was still pissed off last night and hoyed that tweet out

Be interesting to see when he's up here next, he's at loads of our matches. I think he maybe keeping his head low for a bit

 

What did he say?

 

Oooh. Political commentary on the Saudi justice system.

 

he's got what's he's wanted already got people slagging the club off for it,

 

Shoe box appeal

 

I was using that as an example in response to an earlier poster who said we wouldn’t spend £8m on one player. It’s about buying, developing, selling and reinvesting and then repeat the process. A bit like people who move up the housing ladder by buying a lower price house, doing it up and then selling it for a profit and moving into a bigger house and starting all over again.

 

What did it say?

 

Other way round, they'd buy a whole player but if they find out he's gay they'll just sell his head.

 

I’m not on twitter what did heart say?
