    To be fair, the gaffer did say the job was only half done at Wembley.

    Fully expect us to be a bid draw player wise in the champ , however getting all the pieces to mount an instant push for promotion in one summer might be a bit ambitions.That all being said what @Prehab says in regards to the new set up , then why the hell not !!!!

    Agreed, I'll openly admit I was excited at the thought of Keane coming back,but as the week went on, memories of him turning on the fans and talking ****e came back. I was never against Neil coming in though. He fits us perfectly. Good Times a head, I can feel it.

    What a time to be alive eh.

    Crazy what's happening at this club when it all looked so bleak.

    We always knew we were a hot prospect, looks like other people have dived in before they miss the bus <laugh>

    I'm never one to fish, but can I just ask, are these serious people? Sizable transfer kitty and more importantly, full blown no nonsense professionalism?

    Tell you what, I love this board, it's an escape, somewhere to interact with like minded people, mates at your fingertips from all walks of life. And just to add, it's 2022 and its still amazing that you can crack on with lads in places like Australia,America who support sunderland and can still be apart of it on here. I

    Last post of the night before my wife takes me away from the havanna.

    SD and CM are gone. The difference is going to be massive ok. No more checking if investment can be made. No more checking if transfers can be made.

    Just huge difference. It should have been more but still class..

    Right that's me out. X

    Exactly, no bullshit, calls a spade a spade and has managed to turn a team that was spunking goals to 15 plus unbeaten. We were promoted by scoring 4 goals and conceding 1 in 3 games. class.

    For those of us who, for one reason or another can't get to the games it's almost a vital lifeline. One day I hope to meet up with as many as I can. Cheers everyone. <ale>

    I'll let other people, who are sending the info, answer and take the credit. I'm NOT in the know with any of this, just receiving messages from people I trust. One is on here and the other on RTG who posts little nuggets but slips under the radar. Same happened with KLD.

    Anyway, opening a can to celebrate D&M going plus news that's even better if it's true, which I believe.
