You obviously never watched the Will Grigg signing episode on Sunderland Til I Die!! With over 5 weeks until the transfer window closes it is impossible to tell what the situation will be at that point. There will inevitably be teams that unexpectedly underperform, who as a result will be more...

A favourable start on paper doesn't necessarily relate to the reality. If anything playing the 3 promoted teams first thing is probably the worse time to play them, as their confidence will still be high from the previous season. Hopefully our class will prove otherwise, but I'm not taking it...

Thats not how I remember last season. There were countless games where we were all over teams in the first half but missed chance after chance only for the opposition to score with the first time they threatened our goal. We need to do the same this season except to take one of our chances...

Have you ever seen Adamarola play? I know I haven't. While he appears to have a lot of promise, I've no idea if he's better defensively or going forward, or where he will stand in the pecking order in relation to Bidwell, and I very much doubt you know any of that either!

Whilst we obviously must aspire to getting in the PL I don't imagine it would be a particular enjoyable experience. Even with the parachute payment supported clubs the Championship is much more evenly balanced , more interesting and more fun. Long term it would also produce its own problems. To...

Darby was better than is widely accepted. He played in a team that finished mid table in the PL and contributed quite a few goals in the process. There have been many far worse than him that have played for us over the years, particularly as we slipped down the leagues.

As long as O'Hare doesn't leave in the interim that is pretty much our strongest team. Have a feeling that MR will play Wilson and Rose in place of Moore and McFadzean though.

The woman at the ticket office will probably have no say or influence whatsoever. It's the sort of thing for the fans forum really, which is why I mentioned you sound out @Sky Blue Pete. I appreciate you don't want to wait around for their next meeting, but maybe he has contact details of...

Have you tr Have you made any attempt to contact the club about your situation? It's all well and good moaning about it on here, but that's not going to resolve anything. As I posted earlier this just might not have been a scenario that occurred to them, and it might be that they try to...

Where will Billy Gilmour be next season?

On Evo's point about the points difference between him & his kids, I'm sure some communication between him and the club or by someone like Pete with his club connections, could provide a common sense solution for him & others in his situation. I would have thought it ought to be possible to...

Wow, really? If anything we released him 2 years sooner than we should have. His extra experience and nous would have been invaluable in the 2nd leg League Cup semi at West Ham, and would have probably helped see us through to our first Wembley final in 1981, and boy did he deserve to play for...

I'd feel more confident if this was anyone but you making this prediction. You never seem to be right!

This really rings of McSheffrey's move to Birmingham when they were trying to get him as cheaply as they could. Bruce was in the press for weeks before the deal went through moaning that we were standing in the players way and wouldn't sell for a fair price (their low valuation of course)...

There is still some considerable time until the window closes so I don't understand the urgency to sell our better players below their value to us. As pointed out the club might well make a strategic decision to review in January, rather than accept a low fee now anyway. If we did receive a late...

I thought MR stated last week that he was looking at bringing in 4 defensive minded players, so if so that leaves 2 still remaining. One could be as cover/ replacement for Fadz. If not I would have thought Hyam was the most likely to step into that role as Fadz starts to feature less.

Lets hope its Wood v Gyokeres 2nd game in then :)

This seems a pretty strange decision to me. Would love to know the criteria for it as it seems to be denying a city based business from operating, which I thought was the opposite of the purpose of hosting such an event. Are the hotel and casino also going to shut down?

........ but you don't know if 10-12m has been offered. It could be as likely that 3-5m is what has so far been offered. I think most of us would reluctantly accept if a sale is made for over 10m but anything less I would like to see us hold on. I don't necessarily buy into your point on...

Maybe Panzo will play tomorrow night. Will be nice to see what all the fuss has been about! If MR has truly had a long term interest in him, and with Forest getting promoted, now would seem a perfect time to sign him up.
