Staines of course
How many on here were calling for us to sign Graham during the close season or recent transfer window ?? After seeing him play on Saturday and reading a few rumours on the Swansea board looks like we dodged a massive bullet there.
 
Perhaps another example of how Harry & Co will always know more than we do. Harsh to judge on one game but did not appear to be a particularly talented player.
 
He certainly looked slow and overweight at the weekend. I was still glad to see him go off though as his rare good games have often been saved for against us.
 
Sunderland fans have mentioned how crap he has been since joining them. Overhyped player living off his season in the Championship with Watford.
 
Telling that Swansea regarded him as a sub at best, must have been laughing all the way to the bank for 5m and did not feel the need to replace him.

Fletcher scores goals but 12m for him versus 8m for Remy? No wonder the Mackem board and my Mackem mates have had enough of O'Neill already - Sunderland look very vulnerable indeed.

If they don't beat Norwich next week they have a tough few after that and could get drawn in
 
But Newcastle have looked to have pulled out of it...maybe good for us and our last home match of the season????

Yeah, it was always a bit fanciful that they'd be truly sucked in to a scrap and have shown good form the last month or so. Hopefully their minds will be already on the beach by the time our game comes around.
 
Graham was never good enough IMO and has been found out.. it was similar to the daft calls for other players that haven't got it. We missed out on M'villa and at the time I was a little disappointed as he is such a good player as I knew was Sissoko however I think many on here will begin to look again at our squad with a more balance mindset.

Just look at what QPR are today and just maybe you will see what I am going on about, the owners of our team have backed us and we deserve to back them because this lot are beginning at last to show exactly what we have in strength and depth ... it has taken too long of course but now is the time to feel proud

Queens et al. Happy to eat humble pie if it means us staying in PL.

That's no to say Adel is exempt from any blame if we do go down. We needed consistently big performances from him, but sadly, as with others, he disappointed.
 
Have to confess to having been a bit of a Graham fan right up to this last window. What with our painful lack of line-leading goal scorers, saw him as the replacement for Cisse... especially when it looked like we'd missed out on Remy.

Still, what do I know? I leave all that kind of stuff to 'Arry...
