Leeds fans seem to keep using words like good business, bargain, capable. etc ... ... Farke seems to be planning another attritional attempt at survival.
I’d really like to see movement on a centre back next 3 days. I know I know, deals take time. I don’t need patronising. But I’d like to see one so that they can begin integrating as well as the other new lads seem to be.
If we failed in our CB targets and then went back for Meps do you think he would come? Obviously we are trying for better but may well have p*ssed him off. At the end of the season I just thought it was a given.
Interesting question. I don’t think Bournemouth would sell him at the moment as they’re short at the back. I think he would come though yes. He seemed to really like it here.
Not that desperate if he has not signed. Dragging feet in championship. Think its probably more agent than Dan hinself
I avoid TikTok and X they’re like drive by shootings, I’d much prefer to debate on a forum where you get to know the character, you’ve got some knowledgable posters and you’ve those who just love hating it’s the same on every forum. I’ve said my opinion on a couple of your signings already, new news has also been forwarding on our own forum with a poster who does actually have a small amount of inside info. I’m not going to start going into it all or we end up waving the flags too. Betting men would say all three to go down, you think you’ll finish above Leeds, I think you’ll be below us, a long season ahead with lots of twists and turns I’m sure
I'd like both teams to see both teams stay up and both teams have done differing but interesting business this summer. Its teams like Brentford, West Ham and Bournemouth I'm looking at with interest. The worst thing about league one and the championship was the continual false rivalries made, I know its largely down to modern day social media, I'd hoped we'd be past all that now but this summer it seems otherwise. I know we have some history, and ultimately we may be battling for a relegation place but let's just enjoy the summer while we can.
Preseason is the best part, we get excited about links, hammer YouTube for footage, discuss where signings will slot in, no pressure of winning a game, no spoilt weekends after a defeat, it’s when the season starts it begins to go tits up
all any of us promoted clubs can do is hope we are “doing it” better than the other two and at least one other. nobody will know who’s done it “right” until Christmas at the earliest. I’ve got no problem with Leeds and Burnley fans being happier with their business than ours. If they can’t enjoy the lead up to a premier league season then when can they. My hope for us is that even if we do go down, which is still probably more likely than not, we’ve invested in talent that will be sellable at a profit, or if not will be able to grow with us back in the championship. I love what we’ve done and I wouldn’t change it. But I wouldn’t expect Leeds or Burnley fans to be saying “oh no I wish we were doing what Sunderland are.” You absolutely should be backing your club to finish above us.
