    Ross had a 1.85 average in his first season which slams Parky's 1.6 last season and 1.77 this season but still not good enough for automatic promotion. I'd disagree about points per game average not being a reliable indicator of a mangers or teams performances tbf. It's one data set you can use that doesn't depend on someone's opinion, it's just factual information. I know I go on about the golden 2 point average but if a team is hitting that, they're going up. Get less and no guarantees. Fwiw Pearson and Gus achieved over 2 points a game average in their seasons managing in league one and both went up.

    Because that would be common sense, and that doesnt seem to apply at the minute

    Just sums up them two amateurs running our club into the ground. Shall we sort a massive takeover l or investigate a kid speaking the harsh truth about their lack of any ability to see what is right and wrong? The sooner these 2 **** off the quicker we get our back. Chancers

    I like a bit of hype it's fun, but we've left that behind some time ago and moved onto hysteria.

    Things are happening that's clear, I don't think anyone knows exactly what but all we can really do is wait it out and discuss it when it actually happens, which seems like it'll be very soon.

    If anyone made comments like that on social media about their employer there's a fair chance they'd be dismissed for bringing companys name into disrepute or something similar.

    Whilst it may be the truth he's gone about it the wrong way employment wise

    Out of the loop, who is being investigated?

    This is the sort of thing that is company-cultural but ultimately comes down to the entirely contractual. Personally I'm employed by a company that would 100% stand by my right to criticise them if I did so in a public forum, but would also ultimately have no legal recourse to do anything about it if they ever changed their stance on that.

    Spot on.I posted earlier that I'm in the "aye whatever" camp. Not in a derogatory way, just after all that went on the other day, we all got a bit carried away as it seemed something was on the cards, then nothing. So, let's wait and see as you say mate.

    I'd rather not see this unreactionary **** from a John Wick profile. Either call for (literal) heads or stfu imo.

    Hopeful things will come to light later today, unless things change again

    You can't even get 2 points in a game man. This argument is pointless. <whistle>

    Need to brush up on your reading skills a bit there marra as I've constantly said 2 points a game average, not 2 points a game. Happy to clear that up for you.

    That rumour started from nqd and he hasn’t been seen since he posted it, he must be laughing his cock off looking at what has happened. Got to admit when he posted it I wasn’t a bit happy, now I’m just letting it go until the club announce who it really is.

    People are getting confused of the share allocation, Madrox own 100% of Sunderland, SD owns 74% of Madrox, Sartori owns 20% of Madrox and CM owns 6% of Madrox.

    The new (alleged) share distribution of Madrox is going to be, SD with 15% of Madrox, CM with 5% of Madrox and (a new consortium with a new holding company) with 80% share of Madrox. The new consortium company will have a 50% share holding split between Sartori and KLD

    Madrox will still own 100% of Sunderland

    It couldn't be more obvious you're either Bob or have been talking to him, no problem with me.

    As far as the takeover is concerned I'm afraid your opinion is irrelevant, as is mine.

    In the real word there's no such thing as 'a jiggling of shares' ...

    ... it's a takeover however we choose to think of it.

    Whilst this is true, any half decent boss would recognise the emotion in the situation and have a quiet word with the young lad.

    It's like when you hear a noise downstairs mate.

    You look at what's at the side of your bed and consider your pepper spray or extendable cosh.

    Both will do the job but in entirely different ways.

    If we'd been in the close season the process would be much easier but, if we're to rescue this season we need a quick fix with whoever's available.

    The alternative is to ignore this season and start laying foundations.

    That's my opinion, based on guesswork btw.
