According to Kieran Maguire the entire club is worth, at most £30m, which is less than we spent on Bruno. Imagine being worth less than Andy Carroll 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toonpack 6985 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Craig said: ....and how did that game end up for them? BTW, 5 times they've been involved in play-offs. 4 of those times they got the final (1987 it was the final game under a different format). They've won none of them. They'll crow on about how they were promoted in 1990 but that was only due to Swindon Town being corrupt. Conversely, we've appeared in it once (we all know what happened). Since then we've been promoted back to the top tier 3 times - each time as Champions. How had I forgotten all about that tbh, they couldn't even get promoted properly, team that finished third should have gone up (and who was that again?? ) Edited February 17, 2022 by Toonpack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. Team that finished 6th ended up going up despite the fact they never won the final. TBF it was a farcical mess and all 3 teams had an argument for going up - Mackems because they lost the final, us because we finished 3rd and Blackburn as they should have been in the final at Swindon's expense. Football League's fault - they should have dealt with the Swindon situation BEFORE the play offs began but they choose to delay it in the hope they wouldn't win the thing. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 17973 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 We were something like 6 points clear of the mackems iirc as well. Can't remember why they didn't just demote the bottom 2 that year with 2 going up, would have made more sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, And wasn't the case for Sheffield Wednesday staying up strongly argued as well? The went down on GD from Luton. Both of them finished 13 points ahead of Charlton who were 19th.

Craig 6321 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 That said, I would champion the simplifying of the playoffs. 17th in the Premier League v 3rd in the Championship. 2-legged affair, aggregate winner takes all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/keane-on-why-he-turned.1572728/ RTG reacts to Keane saying he wanted more money than they could afford to pay him. Outraged that he wasn't falling over himself to pay Sunderland for the opportunity to manage such an illustrious club, the consensus is that they've dodged a bullet, he's shit, can't motivate people cos he only cares about money, will never get a chance like this again, etc Full on scorned ex-girlfriend sentiments. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
