Swindon fans said dabo was shit, donny fans said marosi was so whats your point. You have decided that Sunderland fans, well known for over the top reactions, know best and you can't judge anyone for yourself by actually watching them. To use your own words I'll watch him myself to make an opinion on him rather than write him off like you as clearly you rely on others to decide for you.Look at Sunderland fans reactions. They say hes shit. As walsall did with baka. The people that watch him every week can wait to see the back of him in the league below us ffs.
No one on here seems particularly enthused either. I suppose you think Kastaneer is still going to turn into Messi n all
Agree. It may not be the most exciting signing, but...I doubt he’s coming but he’s played 60 championship games his stats are pretty good so it’s odd people are negative about it
Played us off the park ? we both had our spells in the game, but we certainly weren't played off the parkThe St Andrews game we must remember Sunderland played us off the park. It was a grinding out 1-0 champions performance from cov but on another day they'd had won. From what I remember of him he looked decent enough, big guy, strong and quick.
Whether we sign him or not let's not let a childish rivally with Sunderland mean that we auto judge him as being shite. Stealing good players from league 1 to compete in the championship is not aa bad tactic.
Also shows our stock is on the rise. Only a year ago two of our players fucked off for them thinking they were bettering themselves
We didn't have a single spell. We scored after a min and then sat back.Played us off the park ? we both had our spells in the game, but we certainly weren't played off the park
Big and strong? You surely weren’t looking at Flanagan then. He’s about 12 stone wet through.The St Andrews game we must remember Sunderland played us off the park.

I’m amazed how many people watch players from other teams and remember performances in such detail
I would take another look at the stats if I were you.We didn't have a single spell. We scored after a min and then sat back.
Completely disagree, Godden should have scored in 2nd half and Allen had a chance.We didn't have a single spell. We scored after a min and then sat back.
All of the above. I also think it says something that another, established, championship side are after him. And as a side we lack height!Agree. It may not be the most exciting signing, but...
A. He has Championship experience without being old.
B. We're going to need some depth in the squad with the step up.
C. Sunderland had a good defensive record so he can't be that awful.
If its a free I really don't see the problem.

Considering we are now a championship clubs again yes we should be spending money, even if they are team rotation.Should we really be looking at spending this amount of money on a 4/5 choice CB when we have a few holes in the first XI?
Not for me

Funnily enough their best chance was in 1st half a free kick or cross back post fell to Flanagan and he blazed it over when he should have scored or atleast hit the target.
I remember him winning quite a few headers and for some reason we had McCallum marking him. Cant recall what he was like with the ball at his feet.
Think you have Lways got to take what opposition fans with a pinch of salt. Sometimes appraisals are true (Allen, Godden, Walsh, O'hare, McFadz, Rose, Kastaneer, Hiwula) where there performances for us mirror the feedback they got as they left their former clubs but also you have occasions where players either do better or worse than what other fans said. Baka was poor to start and Walsall fans were laughing but he scored some important goals, they are in L2 he is a championship player and I wonder who is laughing now. Probably Baka.
In regards to Flanagan we have to trust Robins. I think the recruitment since he returned and 2 promotions should give him our trust that he might know a little bit about what he is doing.
If the rumors about Flanagan are true, I think it probably has something to do with his Burton connection (when he, Fadz and Allen played in the Championship). Plus he's likely to be cheap and looked at being a squad player to give us some depth. Supposedly he can play midfield and defence and so may be a versatile option. However, I'll admit he didn't look great the few times I've seen him and the reason I remember this (for those who wonder why I can recollect this) is because his performances stood out to me for the wrong reasons (i.e. his glaring misses in front of our goal at St. Andrews in March, his woeful defending in the 5-4 win at SOL where he let the ball slip through his legs and allowed Chaplin to score the winner).
Just a quick briwse of Sunderland thoughts on him. Absolutely glowing reviews....
I don’t get what you’re trying to prove? Huddersfield and Scunthorpe would say Robins is a terrible manager
And we know this by watching them most weeks?if we're signing Sunderland players we may as well give up now, every last one of them is fucking shite. Definitely not Championship standard.
Why are we assuming he'll be cheap? Sunderland had a massive budget compared to the rest of the league last year. I doubt he's a high earner there compared to some from the PL/Championship but I imagine it's a decent enough amount to be noticeable in our budget. Plus he's at his 'prime' earning age so won't be willing to just play for a pittance.
I feel we've got more important positions to fill before we consider signing the likes of Flanagan to most likely be a back-up.
Far too much common sense. :happy:If the rumours are true and it does come to fruition, I will judge him on his performances on the pitch and not some bitter ex club bias and experts who have seen him play against our team on a 2 or 3 game basis when we were on the ascendancy. On that basis, all defenders of opposing teams who we played after Christmas are/were crap. You heard it here first......
I think we are just looking for cheap cover, we are paying over 1million for a foreign midfielder, so I wouldn't be suprised if Rose has already been earmarked for sale, and rumour of a injury to Dabbo, means it makes sence to bring in a couple of cheap squad defenders with decent experience.If the rumours are true and it does come to fruition, I will judge him on his performances on the pitch and not some bitter ex club bias and experts who have seen him play against our team on a 2 or 3 game basis when we were on the ascendancy.

Im trying to prove that signing someone who was dog shit and ridiculed in league 1, even as back up for a championship campaign is strange and not a good use of our reportedly limited resources.
Especially with Drysdale and Pask waiting in the wings
Left back ? now that’s interesting.
Neither of which have played more than 15 senior games between them. Pask is coming off 2 long term injuries.Im trying to prove that signing someone who was dog shit and ridiculed in league 1, even as back up for a championship campaign is strange and not a good use of our reportedly limited resources.

A manager like Mark Robins (and his coaching team) improves players, I have faith in their choices.Swindon fans said dabo was shit, donny fans said marosi was so whats your point. You have decided that Sunderland fans, well known for over the top reactions, know best and you can't judge anyone for yourself by actually watching them. To use your own words I'll watch him myself to make an opinion on him rather than write him off like you as clearly you rely on others to decide for you.
Thanks, I contemplated for days, if not weeks, if the people of sbt were ready, months were spent writing, proofing, checking every last detail - and the result, phenomenal!It's about bloody time somebody had the balls to put that out there, well done sir!
