Ayatollah Hermione 17238 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 Reckon the only thing giving them half a chance was the fact that they were scoring goals. Now Grabban is away, they can't even manage that. They're done. Down. Finito. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 15535 Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 The only thing they have going for them is how tight it is at the bottom of the table. That's it. They've got no money and if they did...who in their right mind would sign for them? The best they'll get is league one players who are taking a gamble. Im curious to know the financial difference between league one and the championship. Looking at Short's lack of investment it must be negligible.

TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Has it been confirmed? I read they'd agreed to it but Rodwell hadn't got back to them in 2 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 8367 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 No way he's giving up £5m or whatever it is, surely. And no way they're gonna stump that up to pay him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He's a cheeky bastard, mind  Apparently he approached them about wanting out. Then when they offered to cancel his contract he's asked for a pay-off. If you want paying then do your job mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 8367 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He's never going to get anywhere near £70k/week from any other club. He should sit tight and run his contract down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 8367 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Aye but remember they were really excited about him at the time. Was going to propel them to great heights iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGingerQuiff 2412 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 "Our Jack vs Their Jack" was the discussion at the time iirc. Another they signed from a top side so assumed he'd be class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 15535 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018  Some of Sunderland's players should have  really known better than to sign for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 42163 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 This sounds like shit ITK bollocks but Rodwell was meant to have some sessions with a well known locally-based sports / motivation coach to help sort his head out etc. Anyway, he didn't turn up for the first couple of sessions so the bloke in question contacted Rodwell to ask if there was an issue. He said he wasn't arsed if Rodwell didn't want to see him but he'd rather know one way or the other so as not to waste everyone's time. Rodwell's response was he wouldn't be turning up because he wasn't interested and all he was bothered about was getting away from Sunderland asap. As others have mentioned, quite where he thinks he'll get anything approaching what he's on now is anybody's guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 15535 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Understandable I suppose. He's supposed to be holding out for a payoff too...which would be more than sunderlands transfer budget I imagine... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kelly 1839 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Apparently they're in talks for him from Coldplay. Would be a reasonable signing for them. His records probably not quite as good as Grabban's but he scores goals and he's got a bit of experience which they need given their other striking options. Looks like, similar to us, the stuck with scratching about for loans.
