Fuck Sunderland.

[Willglynning]

Meh. I don't particularly like them, but we need to move on.

Prefer them over Newcastle anyway.

 

[54yrblade]

Well you certainly wanted to

Sadly, not. It's what the 'red and white wizards' (as once was) dished up on the pitch, and that's why we are where we are.

In your opinion

 

[Vinny Kept Us Up]

You must be talking about another fan base! Because the wendies are the most arrogant, ill informed, hateful, deluded fans that football has ever seen. Feel sorry for them, not one bit....................hope they disappear for good!

Do people forget it was their fans who mocked opposing fans with pictures of a dead child, also turned up at our ground with screen shots of our recently deceased player. Sympathy? I think not a jot

 

[54yrblade]

In your opinion

100% it is.

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Doing really well.

Watched their display at Chelsea for about 10 minutes this afternoon and thought they looked like a promoted team that thinks it can compete in the Premiership, and has.

Wouldn't have had them being 2nd, and whilst it's still early in the season, it's not that early.

 

[Nick Jansky]

They have the sort of manager we need. He was easily the best in the Championship last season. I was hoping for someone of similar ilk when Wilder was booted. Oh well.

Will never happen now

 

[Gimli]

They’ve accumulated more points than we did in the entirety of the 23-24 season.

yep hoping we’d get a creative guy with a cv and winning mentality
We got the Freddy Kruger of serial football failures

 

[JPBrods]

Villa
Forest
Sunderland
All clubs we've had direct sliding doors moments with in recent years and all three went their way big time

 

[Barnette]

Such a fine line between success and failure. But the bitter truth is if we had gone up to the Prem we would not be doing a Sunderland.

We would be stuck with Wilder and his negative tactics and a board who don't really understand that they are doing.

Good luck to them...and Leeds...and Burnley....dispelling the myth that you are a sitting duck if you get promoted.

After Scott Parker in my opinion. Trouble is neither knows the club‘inside out’,as you say,Oh well. They have spent over 200 million,would you trust Wilder with that outlay ?

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I'm pretty happy for Sunderland, to be honest.

I couldn't help but be impressed by their support at Wembley which completely outnumbered ours in London. Indeed, their away support is always very good...
(I'm not so keen on their cosying up to Wednesday with all the "sleeping giants" bollocks but that's probably more online characters than truly representative).

They've not had much to shout about recently and the core fans have stayed loyal.

Good luck to them.
They're giving it a proper go. I had a feeling 2/3 would survive this season and my hunch was that it would be Burnley that would struggle.

Also, better to see well supported Northern clubs up there with some history than the likes of Brentford, Fulham etc. purely propped up on economic geography .

When you look at last season’s budgets I’m placing Le Bris ahead of Parker.

But no, I wouldn’t be trusting Wilder with the sort of money they’ve had this season.

I said at the time, they were probably the club I'd be least pissed off at losing a playoff final to from last season's championship runners and riders.

I don't see it as a sliding doors moment as I don't believe for one minute we'd be doing what Sunlan are.

Think us missing out on another £160 million is a big moment in history for us right now.

 

[Shoes_On]

Good luck to them, nice to see a promoted team doing well

 

[54yrblade]

It starts with good owners who have an ability to plan long term, real vision and the ability to bring in the right people for the right jobs.

Right now, the Black cats are showing us and our ownership the way. It's grand to see too.

The question are

1. Do we we want to move on into a bright future and ditch the proven past failures of the last few years, or just stay in 'Sheffield United average' and be too easily pleased? and

2. Given what we look like from the outside, would any serious ££ players want to take it on?

 

[coaxingstar71]

They spent £161m on 15 players in the summer. For a start there’s no way we would have done that and it’s a huge gamble that seems to be paying off for them so far.
Good luck to them.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

Every time we went up we have owners who had no ambition and it’s still unknown what the current ones are. Expect nothing in years to come

 

[CaptainMorgans]

There's not much legacy from the last couple of PL chunks we got and I trust these owners even less (far less, in fact).

No money but I’m sure plenty of ambition
