    Actually, several clubs have enquired, an issue is Danny signed for us as he wanted to be closer to his family in the North East.

    As such, only you, the horse haters, Boro or Leeds are realistic, and Boro wanted him but couldn't raise £3million and his wages.

    He's just flown home alone, so it's happening tomorrow, whatever 'it' is.

    We'd not take him out of pre season for a possibility, it's gotta be a probability.

    Sorry but that's ridiculous. No poster on here itk before it hits the media ever 'link a source'. If he could link a source we wouldn't need him to cos we'd have already read it.

    For Sunderland he never remotely looked like a Premiership player. His one in three conversion is , I presume, mainly based outside the Premiership. It wasn't lack of confidence, it was lack of pace (or if you're lucky lack of fitness) and lack of ability. He may turn out to suit Hull or any other team he ends up at but for Sunderland he was as poor as I can think of recently in the Premiership. Equally Hull fans could say the same about Altidore. The problem with Graham is that, at 27, he's unlikely to improve. You can only say it as you see it and Graham was dreadful for us. As I said before Meyler was excellent for us and Elmo a bit in and out.

    Regardless of my opinion I'd wish him well if he went to Hull as the Mag roots that some spout about is well overplayed.

    Well they wouldn't want him, surely? No disrespect to him or us but if they did want him he'd be going there and they've got much better players already.

    This has just appeared on the Sky Sports website:

    Sky Sports sources understand that Danny Graham has left Sunderland's pre-season training camp.

    The 27-year-old striker is not believed to be injured, but his time in Italy with the rest of the Black Cats squad has been cut short.

    Graham has been strongly linked with a move away from the club, and Hull City boss Steve Bruce has confirmed his interest in the player in recent days.

    Graham is not believed to feature highly in the plans of Sunderland boss Paolo Di Canio, who has already bolstered his striking options this summer with the signing of Jozy Altidore.

    Graham joined Sunderland from Swansea in January when they paid £5million for his services, but in 11 league games he is yet to score for the club.

    Bruce admitted earlier on Tuesday Graham is a "very good player" and is reported to be keen on a season-long loan deal.

    "There's lots and lots of players and it's always wrong for me to talk about them, but Graham is someone where there's been a bit of interest," he told the Hull Daily Mail.

    "He hasn't had the best of times in the north-east but he's a very, very good player. Whether it's possible, who knows? It's something that we're looking at but we haven't done anything just yet."




    Also, Dazed, be quiet - stop making **** up.

    Name who and link what sources??

    I never suggested that the 4 clubs all wanted him, I suggested based on DG wanting to be close to the North East there were only 4 options for him.

    Mags don't want him.
    Leeds can't afford him or want him.
    Boro announced his signing BEFORE he signed for us (****ing idiots...)
    Hull will sign him.

    I do have a very close friend on the coaching staff at SAFC, but I haven't suggested to have info on this deal.

    What do you personally think of him, I know a lot of SAFC fans think he's shocking. But you seem a little more level headed about the situation. Should he be given another crack for you, or is best you just cut your losses?

    Who said 6 clubs? I said 'several enquiries'.

    'Several' by definition, is more than 2, Boro, Cardiff & Hull is 3, therefore 'several'. Brainiac.

    A lot of the flak is unfair, we didn't want him, myself included, it was a wrong move, we needed pace and we had doubts as he is a die-hard Mag.

    He looked sharp at first, indeed, he nearly scored with his first touch in the shirt, and that could have changed everything, as the team laboured badly, he had little supply, and his head dropped, the crowd absolutely battered him, too much for me, I never, ever boo at the match (I'll slate the ****s on here, but not at the match), and by the time Di Canio revived the team he was shot to bits.

    He'll never be accepted by the majority at SAFC, fairly or unfairly, and as such a move is his best option.

    He IS a proven Premier league player, he scored 20 in about 60 for Swans in the big league, that's not bad, considering as well that many of his games for Swans were off the bench.
