Summer window

Soz I was a tad under the weather yesterday after Sat night.
Bellingham is the answer, his dad used to look after the lads finances.
But now I found out its through Couttes bank.
I will explain, I was asked about my Birmingham connections in a PM.
It was about Jobe and his families connection with an agent and their dispute with him.
Then came the F Advisor craic with who looked after them.
Their dad used to, but now it's a private bank in London.
This should have been a reply to a PM but I fecked up again.

 

I actually thought when he came out with the cameraman following him to applaud their fans, before the match "Who does this twat think he is?"

 

Don’t worry about it man, it makes me laugh

 

?

 

Sorry! I might have picked that up wrong, but I was assuming the reference was to Stewart.

 

Perhaps he's too subtle for some people at the club, or soft southern journalists, which is where these daft stories, of unrest and disagreements, come from. It's a very 'NE grumpy uncle humour' I'm sure we've all witnessed but it may not translate ...

...we had uncles who's every sentence, to kids, began with 'you bloody idiot'.

Always had us in stitches but must've looked brutal to outsiders.

BTW, though all the TV coverage, pre/post match interviews, etc, did anyone pick up the slightest hint of friction ... personally I can't remember a time when the team spirit has seemed better.

Perhaps Stewart going has helped improve it rather than the opposite as some have suggested, he was never the happiest looking bloke tbh.

 

Stewart has hardly said anything of note about safc and the fans. More on Southampton and how great they are.

He can do one.

 

Arsenal had bid 3.5 earlier in the window. What I hear is that he is not going anywhere as him his family and his Agent are very happy at Sunderland and can see he is on a good progression path. Just hope he has a good time in Spain as I believe he is going to be Captain of the U17 during the international break.

 

Hot, hot, hot

 

Dead to me already. Shows that the body language/facial expressions after the Watford game were accurate despite folk saying he was just disappointed to be injured

 

What do we make of these quotes from the Ronny Gill? The headline is positive, but the quotes from Mowbray seems to tell a different story....

Some will always try to find the cloud in a silver lining

Mowbray has been around long enough to know how these things work.
Carry on

 

Fair enough. Not looking for negatives, just reacting to some interesting quotes that back up some thoughts on here about Mowbray and his future

 

You've taken the most negative parts of his answer.

"I can't constantly think I have to play Pritchard, I have to play Dack - these kids need a game."

Mowbray asked for strikers during the window and two of Sunderland's four deadline day signings - on-loan Chelsea man Mason Burstow and Ukrainian Nazariy Rusyn - are frontmen, with an attacking midfielder Adil Aouchiche also arriving. Mowbray said: "We've tried to improve the squad and I've been given some extra tools now with some attacking players, and they might watch that game on Saturday because they were here and wonder how they are going to get into that team!

"That's OK because competition is the main motivator and driver of all footballers."

 

I picked out the quotes that interested me most. The quotes you have added are what I'd expect the manager to say after a 5-0 win.

 

Been disappointing that mind - the others have been at least complimentary. we don't need to crave adulation but thanks and good luck would not have hurt

 

Don't see he's saying anything different to what he's been saying for months if I'm honest.

 

Fair enough.

 

I believe this last window has put us in very good stead for future ones, wums
( like blonde ) will stand out like sore thumbs and can be told to do one as soon as they start.

 

I was making reference to the Chronic article mate, not you
On reflection my post did not make that clear, apologies
