    Another rumour

    He wasn't just half decent, he was our outstanding player in League 1. He also played pretty well against us last season, so on his day is Championship level. That said his injury record is scary so I would be very surprised if we were interested in him now, unless his salary was largely...

    Transfer Rumour Josh Windass

    He certainly seems to play well against us, but past history tells us that is not always a positive indicator in making a good signing.

    SBT Ticket Exchange

    Although the rules don't say so, selling your tickets on is quite clearly different to lending them out for free.

    No Euros For Madders

    On his early season form Maddison would have been in the squad, but can't really argue with those picked ahead of him, once Grealish was also omitted. Surprised also about Dunk, as I would have definitely gone with Quansah instead, even as a learning experience as a squad member for future big...

    Championship thread 24/25!

    The lad is 18 years old, but already has a couple of years Championship experience behind him. Take a step back and try not to compare him to his brother and you will realise what an outstanding prospect he is. You and the Sunderland fans seem to be expecting him to be the finished article, but...

    Channel 4 tonight at 10

    The lads dressed in the black gear made me laugh. Obviously taken from the Russians at Euro 16, but the difference being that they were like para military trained cage fighters, while those on display last night were weedy kids who would run a mile if ever they came face to face with those Russians.

    Transfer Rumour Josh Windass

    I think its more the other way round. Am sure some people remember his Dad being decent and in their minds have Josh as being the same level.

    Summer transfer window 2024

    I appreciate that, but for a myriad of reasons they will still be one of the major players on the transfer front in the Championship. They could make serious money from selling any of Summerville, Rutter, Meslier or Gray, plus countless others, so there might be a lot of wheeling and dealing...

    Transfer Rumour Josh Windass

    If you just compare their records in the Championship I suspect that Campbell might have a better record, but even if not we need to consider that Campbell is 6 years younger. 6 years ago Windass had only had one season at Championship level behind him, scoring a grand total of 5 goals. For me...

    What do they receive in parachute payments?

    Transfer Rumour Josh Windass

    Hope he goes to Hull. If we want an available striker with Championship experience I'd rather we go for Tyrese Campbell who is younger and has much more potential upside. Windass is not going to get any better than being a mediocre Championship/ decent League 1 level player in my opinion.

    Ex Player Watch

    https://fb.watch/sndvxg37Rr/? I'm sure I read a previous post from someone on here adamant that he was a Liverpool fan.

    Summer transfer window 2024

    Possibly. Doesn't rule out Leeds being that place though!

    Summer transfer window 2024

    Another transfer thought. Now Leeds haven't made it to the PL I can see them being a likely destination for O'Hare.

    Summer transfer window 2024

    Your argument about Sheaf's value automatically decreasing in a year's time isn't actually backed up previous experience. Plenty of posters on here were urging the club to sell Hamer and/ or Gyokeres a season before we did using the same argument, that it was too great a risk to wait a year and...

    Tomorrow's FA Cup Final

    Don't think you can compare an instance from nearly 50 years ago to the feelings on the weekend of a cup final many of us think we should have been playing in. There's also a difference between bitterness and hurt. The bitterness will wane with time, but I suspect the hurt will linger until we...

    Tomorrow's FA Cup Final

    Not what I was getting at! Big teams against big teams is pretty much 50/50, but the big teams against the others is definitely not. The Rashford example was made more with comparison to the difference in how it was treated to the Wright disallowed goal.

    Tomorrow's FA Cup Final

    Even if you're lines are correct, how does the decision to disallow fall in line with the Rashford 'marginal' goal mentioned earlier in the thread? While I don't believe there is overt corruption in the process, there is a definite unconscious bias displayed towards the big teams in marginal VAR...

    Summer transfer window 2024

    They've done exactly the same the last few seasons, with many posters on here envious of their signings, only for them to flop once the season comes round. I guess by law of averages they have to get it right sooner or later!

    Is it 1 April today ?

    When Burnley came down last time there were plenty on here predicting they would struggle and that Kompany's lack of Championship experience would be a problem for them.
