Over the last couple of season's he's reinvested over £90mil.

It's being reported Juan Sartori is going to be investing in Sunderland.

Well they best get used to it by the sounds of Big Don!

Didn't realise I needed a bandwagon ticket

To be fair, I read one poster was a bit embarrassed and stating he didn't need to mention us.

The figures have been displayed to reduce the amount of tax payable so more money can be spent on the squad.

They're ready for you now.

Always happy to put you straight

I'll put it as simple as I can for you ;). He is responsible for some criticism, just not as much as a few others.

I just don't understand how Charnley is causing pain and misery just because he's a Yes man. The previous owners wreckless spending, Ashley and players who like to get sent off and can't hit a barn door are far more blameworthy. Things could have been a lot worse also, just like Sunderland, Leeds etc.

Grow up. No I'm not.

He was instrumental in getting a Championship team back to the Premier League at the first time of asking!

Supposed to be a new investor being lined up.

They've been told there will be a big budget compared to other clubs (shouldn't be difficult) and with a half decent manager they should get promotion at first time of asking. They've done well getting Ellis to write of the amount of debt they have. Hopefully they'll rot though.

They seem like a right couple of tits.

Think Rafa is trying to shop around for a better keeper.

You mean gone shite?

There was a certain player who lost pace but could still bang them in

This is the hold up in the Benitez contract negotiations. Benitez wants Torres but Ashley wants a more saleable player.

I don't think anyone can be trusted with things like this.

Unless Rafa's been holding out for the West Ham job.

Won't be much compensation as it's just 1 year left now I believe and the big pay off was for over 1 year left.

A lot of the pundits when we were going through a points drought took great pleasure in stating we were a Championship team.

MA has spend a fair amount on the club, it's just that to date it's all been wasted. I'm including the hidden player transfer costs from previous owners. This summer there should be a decent amount of money to spend. Hopefully spent wisely. I don't expect the club to be sold any time soon.

Reports stating Ashley's summer transfer budget = £80mil.
