To think in 2017 Chris Martin didn't even want to sign for us on loan.

Now we're signing all these promising young players and sitting just outside the play offs

Like them or dislike them, you cannot deny that Speakman, Harvey, Young and KLD have done a fantastic job over the past 24 months. And tony has us playing some good stuff. Will be the odd Cardiff at home result along the way cos we're a young squad, but my god, the club feels like its in a progressive place. HWTL
2017 was a busy year for Coldplay tbf. <laugh>:emoticon-0159-music
 
I agree but I’ve also got a soft spot for Trai Hume. I think we may have under the radar unearthed a future star here. Like top level.

I was saying at the start of the season that I'd seen enough in Hume to think he would be our starting right back by the end of the season. I didn't realise he'd be one of our most consistent players whenever he's on the pitch. I think he's destined for the Premier League within the next 18 months, hopefully with us.
 
Rumour otr that we want Gelhardt on loan with view to permanent…

I just went to have a look to find that post and saw this posted a few minutes ago.

"I’ll hold my hands up about the recruitment me, don’t get me wrong I despise speakman, heard to much about him to like him."


So, rather than judge the man on the job he's paid to do this crank despises another human being purely on the basis of gossip.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why RTG is such a minefield when imbeciles like deodrant2 get 'likes' and believe their views are anything but proof that the Internet allows social inadequates to spout their drivel with no appropriate action from so-called Moderators.

We all know how that was allowed to happen here recently and has now been thankfully resolved.

That same poster was the one who mentioned it
 
I’m just pointing out it’s also deodrant mentioning us wanting Gelhardt on view to permanent


Ah right, so he's claiming to be ITK and despises one of the most important people at the club ...

... if he actually despises someone, purely on the basis of gossip, he's a symptom of what's wrong in our world.

Absolutely gutless.

Why are people so bothered about other msg boards, people have opinions on rtg and people have opinions on here, what does it matter

he talks about(or has in the past) of the truth coming out one day and then we'll know

'He’s a bullshit merchant who’d make a very good salesman. What bloke brags to players the day our managers gone saying ‘I’m on sky tomorrow addressing it’. I’m not looking for arguments, he’s rotten to the core.'

...hes picked his hill to die on and thus will never change his mind its the RTG way

Been a member a long time and used to post . This is a great time to be a Sunderland supporter we can the plan , not just the magic carpet ride but a real plan . We are bringing in young exciting players who would never have come to the cloud . For the first time we actually have a “5” year plan that will see us fans seeing some of the best prospects in the footballing world . We have already seen what the plan can do , when we got promoted everyone thought we would struggle but we haven’t and have gradually improved. So if we get promotion I believe the recruiting team knows what it is doing (if we can see it happening then surely they can) and they will have lots of options available .
We have seen this year every time we have worried about an injury there is always a player that stands up and proves us wrong.
So for me promotion to the premiership is not to be feared but embraced as this is where we should be and with the management team we now have we will continue to grow whatever happens .

Why are you <doh>

"How would anyone over the road have any clue what its likee behind the scenes!!"

"Yeah seen that on RTG, that Paolo seems desperate for the takeover to fail, very strange."

"Some on here and on the RTG, seem to jump onany news that might sound slightly negative."

Good post mate.

In the past a manager saying we had a five year plan translated as,

"I have no plan, but please give me time before you criticise the mess I'm making of the job."

We really knew it was all nonsense but went along with it in desperation <doh>

Spot on m8 we went along with it because that’s all we had to follow with our blind faith as supporters of our club
