Marcin Bułka in Saudi Arabia. @FabrizioRomano : Just last week, Sunderland were set on signing Bułka. Talks were very advanced. However, Neom stepped in, very determined to reach an agreement with the Polish goalkeeper. Everything has been agreed, and Bułka has already passed medical tests and signed a contract until 2029.

Poland international selectors aren't happy, as if he wants to be no1 he needs to be a higher team playing more competitive league..
He's probably not arsed about a "legacy", his family will be set up for generations and that's enough of a legacy. Can't blame him but would have been nice for us if he chose to come here.
If Neil did leave who would people like to see as captain? Considering O'Nien won't likely start. For me it has to be Hume.
Hume would be my pick Ballard is an option but injury record rules him out for me and not a big fan of a new signing coming in and taking the armband
Ballard's a bit softly spoken and seems quite shy to me. Trai seems the type who'd both lead by example on and off the pitch.
I wouldn’t argue with Hume like, he’s massively liked in the squad too I think he’s perfect edit I’ve met Ballard a couple of times when I’ve been around Tynemouth he’s genuinely a lovely bloke but was fairly quiet now that you mention it, me shouting BALLARD in his face probably didn’t help mind
