Fernando Llorente has been advised of #SAFC bid for him... Bilbao: Fernando, we have received bid from Sunderland for you. Llorente: Sunder...? who? Bilbao: Sunderland, they wear red and white, like us. Llorente: ? Where are they from? Bilbao: England... The North East. Llorente: Ah, you mean Newcastle, yes?.... yes?? Bilbao: No, unfortunately not, this is Sunderland, about 12 miles away. Llorente: Oh. Not Newcastle, then? Bilbao: No. Sorry. Llorente: Do you have Newcastle's phone number?? #MackemLogic #SAFCfamily #NUFC #FTM
You get some absolute attention whores on Twitter don't you? If Sunderland get Llorente, I would change my fantasy football team with all haste, but the current policy seems to be sell to spend. Have you sold anyone for £18 million yet? You haven't signed anyone yet, have you? I'm fecking worried about you, nevermind you guys!!!! Get a move on Martin
dick **** how can i be a wum on my own board replying to a wum derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Your brain has gone haywire, because all I did was laugh at your buddies joke and then make a perfectly reasonable comment, which has seemingly got your goat... Oh well, you internet warriors are good for a laugh (at)
Is it a bit ironic your owner doesn't seem to have a short-term vision? Unlike most Mags or Mackems I prefer it when North east teams as a whole do well, so hopefully you'll get a few through the door soon. Someone mentioned on another forum that teams may make later deals to save themselves on wages for a few weeks, but Sunderland can't leave it too long, considering you could take Arsenal with all that's going on there!
I think we'll be surprised, I'm confident there's a few things in the offing, we've shifted a load of ****e off the wage bill, saving a few hundred grand a week, and added £19million a year to the sponsorship, plus the kit deal. We'll make our move mate
Yeah your kit looks really smart this year, I thinks it's one of the nicer in the league next season, though I'm no Gok-Wan, because I think our kit is sexy too! Just don't steal Debuchy etc! Carroll, you can have...
I'd have LOVED Debuchy, been sharking him on here for a while, naturally I'm delighted he's gone to Chelsea
Wouldn't surprise me... We've had a couple of good seasons with transfers, so I would anticipate Carr is probably being trailed espionage style by a few other teams! Luckily there's thousands and thousands of players in the world, so Chelsea and Man City can't sign them all, no matter how hard they try! I reckon that's what the Carroll press crap is about, trying to divert attention from actual transfer targets. Hope so anyway!
I think if Ba was going, he'd be gone now, so I can't see why you'd need Carroll. As Debuchy is Chelsea bound, you need a RB, I present to you, the Egybtian Beckham, yours for €1 plus HBA.
Mmmmmmm maybe we can make a deal if you take Obertan instead of HBA, and keep Fools-Golden Balls I think if we have lost out on Debucy, a left-back might make our squad better because Santon is actually a right-back.
Yep, Italy caps in his teens as a RB. It's standard procedure for NE managers to plays out of position tho, I believe it is contractually obligated.
I would piss myself if we did sign Llorente. Before anyone says I am deluded....... its never going to happen, but would be funny as **** if by some miracle it did.
Haha true that... If you don't get a striker you can always try Bramble upfront, while we fill a fullback spot with Shola! I forgot about Cuellar. Good player, but he was on a free was he not, so theoretically you should still have a fair kitty to bring in players. It's a shame Stevie left you with such a big re-building programme, but that's his level as manager... Side-ways steps after he's spent loads and fecked them, but fortunately for you guys Short sacked him before he could jump ship looking like Van Damme
