MON should give Fletcher a target of 15 goals, seeing he scored 12 for a poor team, 15 should be easy with the supply he'll get here and signing Johnson shows MON is pushing sunderland in the right direction and shows we mean business this season.... in MON we trust

Dawson would be a good signing for use. enough North East lad. Thats an idea get the players who are from this area. Can only think of two more top of my head Downing and Stockdale. At least these players are more like to come to the club than Defoe and others.

Why do the bags from the SPORTS DIRECT ARENA feel they have a right to write delusional drivel about someone else's club ie ours. Well i can tell you why because this is a transfer rumour site that talks about transfers that are happening in your club and having just had a look on their page and found it is blank haha. To sum it up we have signed 2 (up to now ) class players and you are running scared so please stop writing your in europe nonsense as you wont be there for long

Believable3 Unbelievable0

U be one of the part time fans who has an empty seat in the sol....and honestly really glad you got johnson as for 1 i did not want him and dont rate him at 12 million....theres much better in the world at that money and i dont mean mcgeady as he his real poor.

Agree3 Disagree2

We get the same off your fans it's just banter. And why do you lot keep going on about us in Europe? You didn't even qualify.

Agree3 Disagree2

We got a bargain for the £10m we paid for Johnson then?

Jeez.

Agree1 Disagree3

Sorry jizz skysports says £12 million for johnson and he is a good player dont get me wrong as i posted the other day i personally know him well from the days when him an young parnaby lived up in durham(nevilles cross) tbh but did not want nufc to buy him as hi is known for having an bad attitude and also likes a good night out and party,s a lot even before games.thats not saying he wont change as i for 1 one enjoy the banter on here and also my hubbys a makem and derby matches are such good crack when your there in person.....and finally most clubs will ay over the odds for players some time nufc have on many occaisions but all that matters if they play well who cares what a player costs its that simple....k

Agree3 Disagree0

Sunderland buy Johnson and suddenly every barcode is an expert and Johnson is no good. All I hear is 'we are in Europe' yes - look forward to playing Thursday + weekend if your performance against Chelsea is anything to go by your squad will not cope with it - tiredness, extra injuries, extra suspensions . Eurpoe next year ? Don't think so. And remember the competition you keep going on about is the one Harry Rednapp got the sack for getting into. Good luck in the Carling Europe Cup.

Agree1 Disagree0

We 3 games in and same story from safc as last year...to much look,buble will burst,cashley will sell...etc etc etc....i know adam johnson personally and is a good player its just its well documented he has issues with partying anybody who knows any thing about football will confirm this....if that can be controlled then he will be a very very good signing...problem is people have tried and failed and thats the problem we have in todays game the young players ( not all ) think they have made and it goes down hill.....k

Agree1 Disagree0

24 Aug 2012 22:45:23
What a diffrence a week makes where is all our fans that where on here last friday calling for oneil to be sacked and short to sell up coz they they said quality not quantity not one come on to say you where wrong still handing your season ticket in get a grip we don't need you same every year arm chair supporters that buy there tops at sports direct stores funding newcastle transfers

I would say we have got some of the best fans in the league but we also have some of the worst oneil and short have kept promise now let's pack the sol out every home game give them something back I still think there will be 3 more olsen nzonzi and gudttie my bet but who knows wish we could keep rico though but understand his reasons fair well old always a hero

Wheres the geordie's who said we will never get Adam Johnson or Fletcher eh? thats right pathetic SGBS in your face, thats 22m we have spent in a day, wheres your big top class signings at eh? exactly small club with 47 pathetic fans who go to their 1st european game for 5 years!

Believable5 Unbelievable1

Cannot believe you are shouting about signing Flecther. We couldn't care less. Neither player would get in our side anyway. Keep playing catch up and paying way over odds.

Agree0 Disagree3

When was the last time you where in Europe? Was it in your lifetime?

Agree1 Disagree1

Closet makems here you are...was it not last season that your getting to europe and be a top 6 team we would struggle and the french flops are crap...then this season we out play you totally again as we have in 17 times in the last 20 years....and 3 days ago this was a depressing site saying mon whats going on and now you pay over the top for a striker and over the top for a party goes and safc are the best....becareful bragging as it comes back to bite just remember last season

Agree1 Disagree2

Works both ways bragging as your lot have said we will get relegated and we will never sign top players and I was just making a point that alot of geordies said we would never get johnson or fletcher!

Agree1 Disagree0

But you still haven't signed top players?? Johnson is a bench warmer and Fletcher is average at best.

Agree0 Disagree1

New you would get fletcher and yes he will do a job but he aint prolific or 20 goals a season striker...very surprised u got aj but would be bragging u got him especially for 12 million theres a lot better out there for that in the world as i personally believe young sinclair is going to be the winger for england shortly

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Aug 2012 20:37:47

24 Aug 2012 20:26:37
Hope the two previous posts about AJ signing are true.

My theory on the situation after hearing both MON & Mancini's press conferences today is, MON suggested he'd hoped to have something else to tell us but things hadnt progressed as he'd hoped. While Mancini suggested there will be no departures from Eastlands until a replacement is found. Hopefully its as good as done and where just waiting on Scott Sinclair to sign for citeh!

Believable2 Unbelievable0

THANK YOU VERY MUCH MR MANCINI FOR MR JOHNSON,and to city fans i hope you get a good replacement and top the lge again,cheers from safc football supporters

Agree4 Disagree0

24 Aug 2012 20:36:46
brilliant signing johson and fletcher this is a massive boost to all safc supporters for this season.with 2 or 3. more new faces means we will defo be up there at the end of the season

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Up where? Johnson has warmed the bench for season and Flecther is hardly a top striker. So I would not get ahead of yourself.

Agree2 Disagree5

The bitterness displayed by the goons is unreal. I thought you were a MASSIVE club so why are you so bothered about our transfer activity and targets for this season

Agree2 Disagree0

Johnson is a good Player but his attitude stinks and you broke your wage structure to get him. Watch the unrest start cos players like Sess are gonna want more money now.

Agree1 Disagree2

24 Aug 2012 19:19:44
Adam Johnson is a DONE DEAL, I never had any doubts that MON is the special one

This Toon fan has got something to say. You have not signed AJ.

Richardson is going for £1.25m to WHU a £3.25m loss
Elmohamady off too Al Ahly (Cairo) £200k
Bramble off too Orduspor £650k
Campbell - Fulham £800m
Sessegnon - Montpellier £7m
Larsson - Helsingborg £2m
Vaughan - Bolton £2
Gardner - Walsall £2m

Players coming in

Emily Eskey Free
Michael Owen Free
Owen Hargreaves Free
Jake Noble
Liam Henderson
Ryan Dougherty
Connor Smith
Lewis Hicks
Vincent Louis
James Jackson

Will always be second best to the best club in the North East of England. We will be Top 10, You will be bottom 3.

£800,000,000 for Campbell? That would be good business.

Agree1 Disagree1

So we just didnt sign johnson then? ha ha ha ha ha moron. safc93

Sorry. Who hasn't signed Adam Johnson? Sunderland haven't. Shouldn't be so premature with your posts mate you end up looking like a nuuuuumpty.

Blatantly a mackem posing as a Geordie! No toon fan would sign off FTM!

24 Aug 2012 18:06:32
What I would bloody love would be either Guidetti or Hooper to pair up with Fletcher, Johnson (who I still don't think we'll get), Aly Cissokho and another creative midfielder. Fernandez from Lisbon springs to mind.

S.Rooney

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Rooney cant speak for all the other mags but i,ll be buzzing if you get johnson as i for 1 did not want him....just as i was buzzing when you got bruce and mon.....think sinclair for 6 million is going to be the next english winger and is a much better prospect........k

Feel sorry for Larsson though!

One of englands finest on one wing,irelands finest on the other,scotlands finest in the middle,and the bullet just behind him,good times my friends,good times.

Iam reliably informed that no one has ever seen a mackem in milan. {Ed057's Note - Just wondering why your so bothered about Sunderland jealousy maybe? Big Zach mac}

Agree1 Disagree1

Thought you were getting into Europe last season. One thing saying its another doing it. Sunderland side isn't good enough to finish in the top 6 with or without Johnson.

Agree1 Disagree0

Newcastle fans bricking it. Tone of their posts shows how green they are. If AJ does sign they will have to get back under the stone.
Mon the gentleman.
Pratdew says it all.

Jeez.

Oh sorry.

Whatever people say about Fletcher there is no getting past the fact he scored 12 goals last season in a team that was the worst in the league.He may not score any wonder strikes from 30 yards but that is not the sort of player we need. We need someone who can lead the line and put away chances in the box. By leading the line and occupying the defenders(which he does brilliantly) he will create space for Sess. We haven't had that for a season and a half. Defenders could essentially leave our main striker to there own devices because they went missing on the wings. This meant they could put two men on Sess & McClean everytime. If you have Fletcher actually do the job of a striker then they can't do that thus creating more space for our creative players. He may not be a world class player but he is the perfect player for our squad. And he's only 25 which means we probably haven't even seen his best yet. On top of that if we can get Johnson I'll be chuffed. Here's hoping...

Believable2 Unbelievable0

24 Aug 2012 09:22:14
Think your spot on there, he's a typical number 10 and we've not had a player like that since quinny. He will do well at Sunderland (atleast I hope so) not worth the money we paid but then again Bent wasn't worth £24 million either. Swings and Roundabouts if you ask mr

Believable2 Unbelievable0

You never paid 24 million for bent.

Agree1 Disagree0

Think he meant that we got 24m for bent. Therefore: swings and roundabouts. Donut.

Agree1 Disagree0

Think you never got 24 million for bent person.....spurs got 5 million sell on after safc sold him take that off what you paid and you got about 5 million from bent but wages and agents fee,s need detucting from that..
