Absolute bollocks that mate. 10 pound a raffle ticket to win 100m or 5 pound to win 10m. Which ticket would you buy?
And thats also showing ambition and intent aswell instead of being a pussy and happy with mediocrity and hoping for a miracle
It's obviously fine you being miserable about everything, each to their own, but laughing in the face of positivity isn't really helping anyone is it. Surely it's better to let people be optimistic than trying to pull them down.
You need to learn what i mean when i talk about net spend We have a bigger out lay of spend than they do so therefore more ambitious going by your theory They have spent 25 millions but brought in over 53 million, so theyve made a massive profit (if they were as ambitious as you say they are then they should have spent more than theyve receieved?) We have spent 18.5 million and brought in just over 10 million, so therefore we are in a negative so therefore spent more of our own money
Blackburn finished a few points behind us last season, stayed up by the skin of their teeth.. Huddersfield finished 3rd in 2022.. then started scrimping and now they’re in L1. Barnsley made the play offs a few years before and got relegated the next season. League position isn’t really an indicator of ambition, sometimes teams just have a good season coupled with other teams being ****e. I don’t think that play off season can be looked into too much, we didn’t get promoted therefore it counts for nothing.. it’s what you do to build on that imo and we’ve gone backwards, but we all know that. Hopefully a decent managerial appointment and a good transfer window to come, some better players ready to hit the ground running. Offer competitive wages instead of wasting millions on players who A) aren't ready and B) are competing with other players that have had transfer fees spent on them - because you might make a few quid.
Hes been a nob towards me over recent posts. Dont get involved mate ive known you a long time and dont want to fall out
How the hell have i? Ive never had an issue with anyone on this forum, even when i have disagreed with them You keep going on about how other clubs are more ambitious than us, i have disgreed with that You called me a Nob for no reason I come on here to debate all things sunderland, not to be called a Nob by you
I dont want to come on and name call anyone even if i disagree with their opinions I just dont get thos whole boro are more ambitious than us, yet weve spent more money (look at net spend for last 2 seasons) than them over the last 2 seasons
Depends if I was homeless in the meantime and how much I was spending on rent etc. I get your point completely, but there’s no guarantee if you wait that someone won’t swoop in at last minute. It’s complicated, it’s always a trade off. It’s not my money so that’s all down to KLD ultimately, he’s the majority owner.
Ok sorry mate, ive always respected and enjoyed your posts. Im having a bad few days and lashing out. Hope we can move forward and be respectful towards eachother going forward
I get that mate, and if you ever need to talk just DM me I didnt take it personal, we all have opinions - we wont always agree on them and thats totally fine btw I get more defensive on recruitment aspects as i know how tough that side is in football We both totally agree that last season was totally unacceptable from a recruitment point of view and the managerial situation
Yeah apologies mate, my posts are coming across aggressive based from my current mood with every day life. Please dont hold it against me
I was just about to post to you that was your response to my post Disco quoted there. I hope you wouldn't think that I'd been a nob to you. Anyway Tees, hope all is ok with you mate.
Mods have removed my challenge, which is fine, but I think sparring is a great way to take someones respect, sometimes known as a straightener, it can chill people out online.
