Pritchard

The lad put some great performances in while he was here, contributed to some good goals/assists and was a key player in a team that has been the most entertaining Sunderland team for decades.

He could have left and always been held in good regard here, had a warm reception when he came back etc.

He’s got to the final hurdle and ****ed it. Can come out and say ‘I’d like a move away’ etc but to refuse to play is criminal in my mind. You’ve signed a contract just like all of us with our work, if I refused to go in my boss would drop me like a stone, but footballers can get away with it while being paid a fortune.

Fully stand with the club on this.

 

It's all in the past now, don't worry about it.

 

Mind your own business, people are talking.

The BCB affair is in the past but you keep banging on about it.

You tried to put forward a ridiculous defence of Pritchard and people put you back in your box ...

... now you want to sweep the thread under the carpet and forget it, tough.

 

I hope he was watching the reception for Gooch ...

... he'll never have that at any of his previous clubs, quite an achievement.

 

End of the day he was a slightly more consistent and (amazingly) less professional Chris Maguire.

1 more game and his reputation would have been in tact. Strange that he's so keen to go to Mowbray when he was largely out of the team under TM.

All the best getting things off the high shelf Pritch.

 

It's all fine though, nothing to see here, the club have dealt with it despite there being no evidence that they have....

 

The player's gone ...

couldn't be more dealt with

 

Money is his motivation just as it was for Alex Neil ...

... all the flannel about control on signings and what that nasty Mr Speakman said is just a smokescreen for the cash.

 

Was never an issue in the first place, don't worry about it, in the past, why do you keep going on about it, nothing to see here, none of our business etc.

 

It's a current topic for discussion on a football discussion forum

If it was never an issue why did you spend days building an argument with made up facts ...

... grow up man.

 

Guys can you set up a separate thread for your constant nagging at each other?

It’s disrupting a few threads and the rest of us just want to talk about what’s on topic,

Cheers.

 

Slow on the uptake as usual.

 

Shouldn't think he's too bothered about the reception he gets, doesn't seem the type and has had stick off likes of Huddersfield fans before.

 

Not so slow that I haven't noticed your sudden flurry of posts, about SAFC, since I mocked you for having no interest ...

... it must be aggravating having someone pulling your strings so easily

Anyway, it's a football thread so I'll leave it there and talk about the topic, with interested people, if that's alright with you.

 

It won't break his heart but I think it'll hurt a little.

Football like to be admired, even if they can't be liked.

 

I'd wager it's not as aggravating as realising that I've just been saying to you exactly what you've been saying to others over on the BCB thread and you haven't cottoned on

I post the same as I always have.

 

Stop disrupting the thread, and annoying others, you two

 

100k? Is that all, ****ing hell.

 

Plus six months wages tbf.

If he'd sat out his contract he'd have gone for free ...

... and you can't let him stink the place out with so many young lads around.

You can't even get him to take the youth team to Alton Towers, he'd only sulk cos he couldn't go on the rides

 

Done, back on ignore.
