Now then lads & lasses Been spoilt this week, grannies got my little one again for a couple of nights so I'm here again.. Remember 3 or 4 seasons ago when the big debate was on the old 606 boards about who Keano (still like the bugger) would sign as time pressed on and he unfolded the Spurs trio of Chimbonda, Tainio & Malbranque? that after the El Hadit, did it and fcuked it Diouff? The way I see things at the mo and what is being voiced is that when the big-guns move, we will move hence the late activity. Now I like the ploy of MON simply because he hasn't blistered the team with a handful but wanted to see what a handful were about in pre-season before he put his plans in action.. We knew the striker role had to be filled x2 and we know creativity had to be introduced in midfield as anybody and their dog who watched us last season could see that. sydstopsreading.. I honestly believe we will get a shock or two before the season starts and for me the Fletcher signing will be a start. I've seen the lad rip us an arse twice now at the SOL for both Burnley & Wolves and a player that stands out in his on-field presence and ability to be pain in the arse for those playing against him. I don't give a **** about stats, you watch a player that looks good, see him do it again and you're sold!! Anyway we had a great player called Marco who also had a brother that played for us (remember him?). I had a beer or two with him, my birthday night and through Marco he said the club has never been in safer hands both management & board.. That's enough for me, so for the ball juggling, frenzy brigade, come and do what I do in a day and keep the faith in life then you're a fcuking star.. Just my opinion like but we are ok, we are Sunderland, we are the laaaads and together.. Ha'Way the Laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaads..
