Get in. Went to bed after night shift this morning with the news that BL had set a deadline and never expected a “Here we go” on wake up. Thought he was top quality for Arsenal. What a signing this will be
Currently on holiday in Bulgaria for 2wks. It's a beautiful place. We head on over to an archery game at 15:30. Ahhh you from England. Who do you support? You won't have heard of them....... Sunderland. Ahhh Sunderland, Jermaine Defoe and you've just signed Granit Xhaka. My 17yo is sitting back loving it.
Just a job too big for him. Had a weird speaking voice that didn't help But Parkinson was much worse IMO. Useless and arrogant with it!
The Netflix documentary did a lot for us. Think a lot would have researched us on the back of that and now keep an eye on us.
We’ve had some candidates for that and he’s definitely up there. However, it’s Michael Beale for me. Can’t stand him and the way he just lost the dressing room after a month takes some going. What a disaster.
Parkinsons football with Sunderland was a low. It was so difficult to watch at times. Just as well we got Little Lee to turn the tanker round. Just think, if it wasnt for Lee Johnson we wouldnt be signing Xhaka today. RLB should make him joint head coach imo. Another to bring home and get our fans excited.
Hope Newcastle manage to get Ramsdale and second hope is that he keeps up his record of getting his new clubs relegated - wouldn’t it be great !!!
He definitely got the ball rolling. Surprised he hasn't popped up again somewhere, though it didn't go that well at Hibs. But he got us going. He was one of the steps, no doubt
Haven’t had a single person try and put a negative spin on this one all I’ve had is ‘fair play yous aren’t ****ing about’ messages, can’t remember a single window where every single signing has been impressive like this
Sounds like the clubs didn't agree a fee until today unless I'm missing something? What Malaga said was very positive from the player's perspective but would have been for nought if Leverkusen never sanctioned the sale... thankfully KLD made it happen
I don’t want to derail the thread here. I’ve always said I’m not perceptive and I’m certainly not a master football tactician, but apart from Parkinson I said from day one of his appointment, that Grayson should have been nowhere near our football club.
