Aren't they after Kyle Lafferty? Or do they want both?

Off their forum it seems Lafferty held talks but didn't want to go there. ?
If that is true it is pretty amazing..

Doesn't surprise me to be honest. The amount of stick the players get of their fans when things aren't going right is enough to put any pro footballer off. I know we may have booed players of the pitch and slagged them off on here, fb, phone ins etc when things weren't going right. But their fans take it to the next level shouting at players in the street, as they go in to training. Look how they have reacted to Stewart Donald I'm surprised they haven't stormed the boardroom yet.
They aren't a big club in a big league anymore. They are on par with atleast half of league 1. They are delusional, they are now saying Billy Sharp from Sheffield United is a possibility. ??

welcome young Atkinson.
great to get all this done early and can't wait to see who else arrives.
ST, KR, the recruitment team and everyone else involved deserve some praise tonight. was a shaky start but they've turned it around and given us a team to be proud of

Not surprising. When was the last time a player moved to Sunderland and improved their reputation?
Maguire maybe, but only because he'd been at Bury the previous year.

No thanks. I know it's just about the football and all that, but he's been convicted twice of assault. Jailed at least once for breaking a bloke's cheekbone..
Probably end up at Fleetwood then.

I remember when David Penney did that at the manor, against Bristol City. Junior Bent I think it was.

Our squad is the best in the league by a mile, promotion surely now!!
Unfortunately in this case, football is rarely that simple

Peterborough do. Whether Ferguson can get the best from them is a different matter.

Do they? Absolutely disagree. They're a 2 man team.

It's all very subjective. The fact is that we currently have the best squad that we've seen in decades. We have some of the very best players in the league and a manager who gets them playing to their very best. Is that enough for promotion? Time will tell. But we can't be looking at any other club and worrying about what they have.
Really? Excellent strikers if they can keep them but I'm not particularly impressed with their defence?
Havent we a better balanced squad?
