Howay 12496 Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 It’s just fucking brilliant that all of the nonsense they leveled at us last season has been shown up in spectacular fashion.

TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Is there much of a financial impact in being relegated to pub league one? In terms of income I mean. The impact for those lot will be devastating when their external creditor's arse calls out and call their loan in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinRobin 11263 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I was talking to a friend of Alan Kennedy on Christmas Day.

I can’t imagine there’s much money in League one, isn’t it something like 2k a week or so players usually get down there? The mackems will have Jack Rodwell on 60k a week still . A big point for any creditor will be that it means at the very least 3 seasons outside the PL. Realistically it’ll be a lot longer as they’re in a horrific mess, it’s been festering and getting worse for years but the fans have brushed it off so now it’s an utter plight.

Howmanheyman 33169 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 That thread they had last season about how they'd get on the championship might be worth a look if it's still on there? (I know there was a few said they'd struggle but there was quite a few who thought they'd be play off spots, mid table at worst). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People can't get their head round it but it's happened to better clubs than Sunderland. I just think they'll do enough to survive this season. If Coleman can get a tune out of the like Grabban, O'Shea and the younger players they should have enough to cling to their place in the second tier. However, that they're even in the conversation is shocking. They should have offloaded Kone, Ndong, Khazri et al, reduced the wage bill and overhauled the squad. They've bought mostly shite, and kept mostly shite, no wonder they're mostly shite. That said, I expect them to cling to the bowl like a stubborn shit stain. They won't miss an opportunity to "brag" about being the Premier League for 10yrs, but what has it given them? No European football, no silverware, few star players, few memorable games. A decade of turgid football, mostly at the wrong end of the league and the only thing that gave them joy were the results against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Selling Ndong and Kone could bring in £12-£15m.They'll both be on decent money.We can only hope Monkeyface blows it on 4 or 5 shite players from the lower leagues with attitude problems.The league table doesn't lie,nor the tv footage of 35,000 pink seats ( their 25,000+ attendance figures are fooling neebody).They cannot afford to pay 'quality ' players big money to get them out the shite.They've got Cardiff away,who are due a win ,then crucial games against Hull at home then Brum away.A right hammering off the smoggies this weekend wont help their confidence either.

Predicting the bottom club for survival on the basis that Coleman gets a tune out of a striker that's almost certainly leaving this month and that they've already been getting a tune out of and are still bottom, a defender that's older than God and some young players which I'm assuming he thinks are better than complete shite, which they aren't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1244 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Their best hope is that Coleman can use his previous position to get someone like Woodburn in and he immediately finds form. That's a pretty big risk and if I were Liverpool they'd be one of the last clubs I'd be wanting to send a promising youngster to. I can't see the likes of O'Shea ever finding any form again, he turns more slowly than an oil tanker these days. A couple more defeats, especially if they're to teams around them and the smoggies, and the fans will be turning on them again. I saw on twitter last night that there's already some who are saying they won't go back as long as Coleman is in charge. Basically while it's certainly not impossible, and they do have a history of being the turd that won't flush, I can't really see anything about them currently which suggests anything more than relegation come May.

Alex 35077 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 I think at the very least they're in a relegation battle until now and the end of the season. Can't see them getting the sort of run they'd need (picking up ten points from six games or something like that) to take them clear of trouble.

NJS 4378 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 According to Fish's analysis, they have to win 10 out of 20 games to get a total in the region of what meant survival last year. I'm still mildly hopeful because of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
