It’s about time we informed the lads they’re not fit to wear the shirt (bar Vards). 

He's a legend, but gets far too much of a free pass on here.

Players are just far too comfortable at this football club.

 

We have such an unlikeable squad, I can just about count on one hand the players that I actually like.

 

For me its

 

Mads

Ricky P

Wilf

Abdul

Bilal

Vards

 

The rest ill genuinely be happy when they can no longer put our shirt on,  its not just lack of talent, its that they are very much unlikeable at times

For me it’s Winks and Coady.

 

Coady a ****ing talk show host and Winks “I miss Enzo like a child” plus laughing and joking with Pep.

 

Two utter ***** who shouldn’t be anywhere near our club. Attitude stinks.

What a bombshell article! Maybe one of the best written about the club for many years.

 

RVN is on the clock now, but I have sympathy for him. He's clearly trying to change the culture of the "Seagrave Hotel" but it's not working, because the overall culture at the club is rotten.

 

Sadly this makes me feel like we are YEARS away from any improvement.

 

- Ruud walks

- We get relegated

- The good players like El Khannouss leave, the overpaid ones stay

- We perform badly in the Championship because said overpaid players don't really care and are just going through the motions

- We don't get promoted in the first 3 seasons, parachute payments run out and we become the next Watford, Stoke, Norwich, etc

 

You can see it coming a mile away.

 

 

 

Lots of people have been saying this since relegation: that it signalled the end of our golden era, the beginning of an unarrestable downward spiral, and that we basically had one chance to get promoted and get this season right. One chance. 

 

I've got absolutely no doubts if we get relegated at the end of season (see: nailed on certaintly) that we'll be in the wilderness for YEARS. It'll be 2004-2014 all over again.

 

Sadly the majority of our supporters cannot, or will not accept this and just think we'll bounce right back. It ain't happening.

Coady has made a career out of being able to speak well in the media. Another dreadful signing.

Well he has at least turned up for his press conference…

 

Gonna be proper boring as usual isn’t it?

What a nothing article, was expecting something juicy!

 

Firstly players who had relegation clauses to take a wage cut are bound to get it back when we are promoted, whether they are regular or not, shock horror!

 

No one had an issue when Kasper commuted from Manchester every day, it is only an issue when things are going poorly. 

 

Players and managers argue when it going shit, hardly a bloody newsflash.

 

As it's anti-club, I suspect this is a player morning who has an in with Percy.  

Probably Vardy’s wife. 

[egg_fried_rice]

Ruud is going to pour cold water over all this hearsay at the press conference and it will be as typically dull and uninformative as we've come to expect from him.

For those older supporters we've seen it all before. It won't be the first time we've been labelled a yo-yo Club.

 exactly my list too. 
 

Before the start of the season I would have said 8, but Winks and Mavididi can both get in the bin now too.

But you know what happens with yo-yo's. One day they go down, the string snaps, and that's it. Think that's where we're  at.

Didn't people say that at the end of 22/23?

That article is absolutely astonishing. Every time you think you have a measure of how bad things are it's even worse.

 

I can't stand this squad. At least you get to watch them humiliated every week.

 

We're in complete crisis. You really wonder if we'll win again this season.

 

Who is this fringe player on £100k a week? Coady? That would tell me absolutely everything I needed to know. That's a post relegation signing. Wasn't wanted by Everton or Wolves but we'll hand out money like that.

 

What an utter utter disgrace from top to bottom. You couldn't make this ground toxic enough. I'm glad that I'll be able to say that I didn't cheerlead a single bit of this run to oblivion.

One of the most cringeworthy things I've ever watched, can't stand the bloke.

 

This is going to be this seasons 'play like that and we'll be fine' isn't it?

[sm1]

I'm backing Ruud on this. The majority of these players are c*nts, and should be put on notice. Top tried after the Cooper sacking, but everybody ignored him. Ruud has talked the talk, now he needs to walk the walk and make changes, stop picking the same shit players that keep stinking the place out.

The difference between them and now though is that our squad was too good to play in that league. You can’t say that about this squad, especially with the utter shit we have added to it.

 

Sell Mads and Bilal, clear out the shit and recruit well could see us bounce straight back but let’s be honest it’s not the likely outcome.

[moseeds]

We are on the delayed Sunderland trajectory at the moment :-(

Slap them some more Ruud. Top is a utter piece of shit for what he’s done to the club.

Utter utter scumbag. I despise him.

It's impossible to predict an outcome, too many variables. 

 

People just love doubling down on the negative.

It’s not coady 

sounds like a player who was on 100k, dropped to 70k with relegation clause and is ow back up to 100k. 
 

sounds like daka or Bouba.   Unless Percy was referring to this season rather than last in which case it could be Ricky

Last time I checked Yo-Yo’s don’t stay in one position for the best part of a decade.

Sunderland had terrible recruitment for years, wasted loads of money on duff players on big wages.

 

I'm glad we haven't done anything that stupid. I mean, how daft would you have to be to hire 2 consecutive heads of recruitment with that Sunderland downfall on their CV. Oh, wait...
