It's hard to imagine Watson sulking if he doesn't go, he's not the type. He'll just concentrate on having a cracking end to the season and either going up with us or continuing to impress prem sides.

It doesn't go to Tribunal, there's 18 months left on his contract.
He signs a new contract or is sold in the summer.
Sorry if I have misinterpreted your comments
yes I agree with you. I was commenting on the person who said we should just keep him for 18 months and bank the tribunal money
A lot has been said about Watson, but credit to the lad. I'd much prefer he went to Brighton, who let's be honest love the lad, than go to a United or a City. He'd never get a sniff at City. United would have him in and out after about 2 years.
Brighton are like us but 10 years in the future, they're who I think we should aspire to be. They will know how to develop him and we will see another Sunderland fan playing at the top I hope...
But I think he's gotta be staying because we obviously didn't get what we wanted in that respect, I think he gets his head down and scores 5 goals as we sail into 2nd...
Question is if we go up, does he stay and sign a big meaty deal? You'd have to think yes?

Tbf to Watson he didn’t ask for Brighton to bid silly money for him. He’ll get his head down I’m sure, local lad as well. Dunno if he’ll sign a contract mind, but really, losing out on £5m or so compared to what we’d get in the summer if he goes then is a small price to pay if he has an impact between now and end of the season
Probably, I'd play him ahead of Mundle but I don't know what Le Bris thinks about that. Either way, starting or subbed on, it doesn't prohibit him from having a great end to the season.
The window is closed, now to the important part. We back the lads to the very end
The way we delay all sorts of announcements I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if we announced Danns at 08:30 tomorrow morning
Surely though, as someone who has only played a few championship games, he'd take 15k p/w to sign a new deal here? I think he would, but maybe we won't be willing to offer that yet.
I think Danns coming in and at least one of Ba/Anderson going out will be our lot…

if Danns was off surely it would have been announced now by our journos
id have expected it to come from Liverpool.
but the fact nobody has confirmed it has happened clearly means nobody knows for sure it has. So who knows
