I’ve liked the way the club have went about recruitment and knew the time would come for potential sales. Letting Stewart go is disappointing, understandable and I don’t have complaints with the fee or the decision. To let Roberts go as well, to a league rival, with no one currently in the squad capable of replacing his standards in the short term and to do it the day the window closes would be hard to accept. I’m happy to be patient with the clubs growth, but we’re Sunderland and some ambition needs to be shown.
