He's been awfully quiet for a while now, Big Tuna.
One does wonder when and how he'll pipe up.

Retaining Rohl and backing him will continue to keep the mob at bay, for now. I'd personally prefer him to sell.up but to be fair should he continue with this current approach of quiet backing then we can probably all just leave each other alone, for now.
Fingers crossed he's not cooking the books again lol

Assuming we mange a semi successful/stable few years and we’re not under new ownership it wouldn’t surprise me if Att took over the running once he’s finished his degree over here at Northwestern. SCO being local should have a word and get the scoop.

All I need to do is get him down to a few of the sports venues over here so he can see how things are done properly, then ask him who the owners are and see how little they usually say about anything sports related. Only problem with that is I will need to hide the price of the tickets from him or else they might go up even further!!!

I’m sure he’s visited anyway before choosing Northwestern. Most reasonable size colleges have better stadiums than most of the PL along with equally high prices and lots of Alumni season tickets too so we’re already screwed on pricing.

College football is no joke, some if the stadiums at college level are superior to many EFL grounds.

The budgets aren't terribly dissimilar with coaches earning hundreds of thousands if not millions.
It's often a point of contention as schools need more money elsewhere but the focus is so heavily skewed towards

Still, whether amateur or pro they tend to run things competently with game day bringing various activities excitement. As SCO said the prices are steep at times. However, you tend to receive more for tour money than you would in the UK.

I think we're finally turning that corner now with the light shows and pyrotechnics but it still looks out of place given the absolute state of everything else, covered in mildew.

Not too fussed really. Would have only taken up any spare bed in the vortex Thumb up


RE: New start summer transfer and gossip thread 24|25 season - Imre varadi - 25-07-2024

They've give him a 4 year contract we offered 2 due to his injuries .


RE: New start summer transfer and gossip thread 24|25 season - Statesideowl - 25-07-2024

Sunderland... ffs

He'll probably have a good season without injuries. Let's hope he's out for the games against us.
Would love to see Sunderland have another fall from grace this season.
I haven't forgiven them or Pritchard for the copius cheating and low life tactics used against us.


Players tend to hit the slab once they've signed for us anyway, like Hamer.

We needed a player that runs forwards and takes Players on. Poveda does this well.

Fingers crossed Rohls able to find a replacement. That isn't a medical liability
