    S Americans and SAFC dont really go hand in hand. Remember the Scocco fiasco.

    Admittedly i know jack **** about the player mentioned.

    We've had some bad luck but it wouldn't discourage me if I thought the player was good enough. I'll have seen this lad play before but it doesn't stick out. Nads has seen way more and you can always trust nads.

    Totally chilled. I just recall starting the summer with such hopes with Sam wanting early transfer activity.

    Still chilled.





    Still.

    Nothing to do with chilled, every bloody year we struggle to push deals through, how many players have boro brought it whilst we wait for a player we want, a player that appears to want to come. And every year we have pre seasons without these proposed new players, then not match fit until October. There is a reason why we don't win opening games because our season starts 6 weeks after everybody else.

    For sure circumstances are different through cause, hmm or are they, dick last year. Hopefully moyes is hard at it but we really need to be playing catch up and quick. Ayew, to West Ham ? Defoe, latest report I have read saying may miss start of season, don't know if substance.

    Angellari, Alvarez and Cabanas? who was sadly shot in the head before we signed him.

    I think the club had unexpected upheaval and for once handled it superbly.

    We will be fine mate.

    I hear you mate but Boro's signings are average at best. Wouldn't fancy any of them here. Ayew at £16m? No thanks. Moyes been in a week. When they back home from Sunday I expect some movement next week.

    Too right they are. When was the last time we even had a manager poached let alone for the country's top job just as the window opens.

    Easiest thing in the world to say this is Sunderland, happens every year. If you think about it. The situation is entirely unique to us and the club can't be blamed on any level. Unless of course it's the budget holding us back in which case it's back to type. But remembering transfer deals are often weeks and Months in the making. We could still be quite a way of signing anybody yet. If we've had to start deals from Scratch (for exemple Moyes wants his own targets) the season could be started before we bring somebody in. It's a real possibility.

    I think it's worth remembering it's the FA whose got us in this mess, not Sunderland.

    An apology is due to Com, who had already noted Alvarez <doh> . On the subject of Cabanas, what a player he was on the evidence of the games I saw him play in . He practically played Argentina off the park in one game just before he was mistakenly targeted in drugs related shooting.
