    Yep, he just needs paying off and kicking out. Its all negativity surrounding him, and it creates a dressing room full of resentment

    I fully understand what you are saying but I also think it is counter productive to where the new guys are going to take us. He is a representation of the greed and lethargy that sunk us. He needs to be removed IMO

    Which is exactly why he should rot. We shouldn't be rewarding him. Just another nail in the footballing coffin imo if we do and we look a soft touch to the sort of player we want to avoid attracting. If he'll agree to a settlement I'd be happy to see him go. But greedy footballers need to know it can cost them more in the long run. 100% against paying him off and rewarding the cretin.

    Exactly he's our footballer we own the little ****. Call him in for double training sessions Monday to Friday and make him clean the real 1st teams boots after a match. He's on 40k a week let's put him to graft! In fact make him change the seats! Force him to shadow our general maintenance staff and labour for them.

    There is no long run for him though. After us his career is over, so he is going to extract every penny he can from the remainder of his contract with us.

    The mistake was made in the past by Byrne, Congerton and Short by giving a player with his lack of ambition a lucrative contract, so rather than looking like a soft touch I see it as putting a historic contract to bed.

    Don't get me wrong, I hate him and would love to see him get what he deserves or being compromised away, but I can't see it happening.

    PR now your talking my language. SAFC should have been stricter a year ago. Go as far as you dare (and a bit more) by giving him legal but humiliating jobs - specially if those jobs brought him in contact with the general public. Hurt him emotionally as much he hurts our club Financially.

    Wonder why we just haven't put the **** on gardening leave?

    Gets him away from the club without breaking any laws. If he wants to sign for another club, he can, and we can stop ****ing paying him.

    Flop Jack Rodwell set for Sunderland exit amid MLS interest RICHARD MENNEAR Email Published: 15:31 Updated: 15:47 Thursday 21 June 2018 Share this article Sign Up To Our Daily Newsletter Sign up A Spoiler-Free Guide To The New Star Wars Spin-Off Before you head to the cinema, here’s what you need to know. Read More Promotional feature From LG Electronics 0 HAVE YOUR SAY Flop Jack Rodwell could leave Sunderland as early as next week, owner Stewart Donald has revealed. The club has been in negotiations with the midfielder and his agent and a deal to end his time on Wearside early is said to be close. Jack Rodwell. Rodwell, who has a year left on his bumper contract, is understood to be keen on a move to the MLS. Rodwell earned £70,000 a week in the Championship but only played a handful of games and didn't play for the first team after the EFL Cup defeat at Everton on September 20. He did turn out for the Under-21s in the Checkatrade Trophy in a bid to reinvent himself as a centre-back and trained with the Under-23s at the end of last season having become an outcast under former Sunderland boss Chris Coleman. Rodwell's 40 per cent pay cut following relegation from the Premier League, deferred for a season should the club not bounce straight back, was due to kick in this summer but he would still have been earning £40,000 a week in League One, a figure that was unsustainable for Sunderland as they look to cut their cloth accordingly. Donald, speaking on the Roker Report podcast, said: "It’s unlikely that Jack Rodwell will be here next week. Him and his agent have been excellent to deal with. "When players don’t want to be here we need to be reasonable with them and they need to be reasonable with us. "Jack Rodwell is being sensible, and if he’s being sensible then there is a chance he will leave." In an Echo poll this week, 96 per cent of supporters say his time is up and that Sunderland must find a way to get him off the books. Donald & Co appear to have found a way with the midfielder set for the exit door next week.

    Beleive it when I see him hold up the shirt. I'd be staggered if we can get his wages off the books.

    Seems Cattermole and Maggie Byrne are going to be harder to deal with than Rodwell and whatever gooseberry he's got looking after him. Didn't see that coming.
