What is it about SAFC that we just can't seem to get our targets over the line. Premier league club, Great stadium, Great training facilities, 40,000 fans at home games, fantastic travelling fans. . must be the canteen Dodgey

Maxed wage bill, financial fair play rules etc etc. We have pretty big overheads what with our stadium, two training grounds, going to be a good few seasons before we can right the ship & get sorted properly.
I just hope we stay up long enough to get it done & we don't just change managers again in a few months and screw up any chance of getting our team in any sort of order.

It's meant for all clubs, if you don't stay within a certain level of income / outlay you get punished, and we do technically have a large debt in the form of a free loan form short that got us out of debt when he took over, that has to be paid back when he leaves.

The third place is split between where we played our friendlies & the girls place in hetton.

The ground at Hetton is owned and operated by Eppleton FC. Sunderland rent the ground for reserve and ladies games. It is licenced as a sports stadium not a training ground.
