Ed003 where is ed24 you are a misery I saw graham interview and he was asked a number of clubs where interested in you including newcastle why did you pick sunderland he said because its a massive club and liked what oneill had to say. I don't know would off been a better reply than a half arsed reply of just no {Ed003's Note - Thanks mate,have you ever seen Misery....? }

31 Jan 2013 23:02:53
Disappointing - thought another 1 would have arrived - still, in Martin I trust!
31 Jan 2013 22:51:49
Ed can you confirm graham turned down the mags and chose sunderland {Ed003's Note - no}
How does anyone know this? Let's just say he did! {Ed003's Note -why?}
That is the sort of crap that the Mags come out with every time they sign someone. We are bigger than that.
Jeez.
Is that right Jeez? didn't you say that when Johnson signed? Yep you did.
No I didn't Kay. That is purely a Pardew thing.
Absolutely pathetic.
Jeez.

Well other than signing graham I think the rest of the day results in these next three words, very bad buisness. all caused by ellis short the rest of the board O'Neill Scouts and Agents all they needed to do was bring a half decent creative midfielder or another striker in but never mind we will have to do our best with what we've got and hope we don't have any bad injuries ahead.
Day's not over yet and there's no I in business.
Elmo back to hull. . . reliable source says downing to us on loan has already been agreed
31 Jan 2013 21:04:14
West hams Diame's release clause can be triggered at 3million, surely worth a bid?!
31 Jan 2013 20:17:59
ED any news :) {Ed003's Note - the government lost a vote about changing constituency boundary's and Kate is expecting in July should be another breezy day of sun and showers tomorrow,wrap up warm mate. }
31 Jan 2013 20:02:00
its not looking promising, I think danny graham could be the only signing of january
31 Jan 2013 19:48:38
Looks like its another deadline day disappointment for us safc fans
31 Jan 2013 19:32:38
we need a RB and a ACM in the next 3 hours
31 Jan 2013 19:32:03
MON said our squad needed strengthening. Signing 2 players and 1 on loan still is not enough I fear. We only know how to go backwards and lack any creative players in midfield. Our defence is shocking, Rose apart! I think the season is over Because we have enough to get the points required not to be in a scrap but not enough to get anything other than a bottom half finnish.
A month ago MON was saying our squad was to small, well he's had the whole transfer window and he brought 3 players in BUT let 3 go, hope he's not going to us our small squad as an excuse again!
31 Jan 2013 19:23:31
Elmo's gone back to Hull on loan does this open a space for Downing or Mcgeady beacause if not we have a smaller team now then before the window opened.
31 Jan 2013 14:17:09
We haven't had a double figure scoring number 9 striker in a while. Lets hope Graham is the man. I know myself and 90% of the fans will be applauding you at the madejski on on Saturday.
31 Jan 2013 12:02:34
So Graham may be on his way but may be holding out for a move up the road. Add to this:
Samba - QPR
Bentley - QPR
Jenas - QPR
Bent - ?? Stoke, if they sell Crouch maybe ??
Huddlestone - Fulham
Cissoko - Newcastle
Scharner - Wigan
Milner, Downing, Lescott, Distin etc not going anywhere?
I know many of these were never much more than rumours but it seems we're not competitive or we were never actually after them. I do hope MON's got something planned to give us a boost today.
Julian Lescott on loan till the end of the season will sign around 6 oclock 100%
Where did you hear about lescott? seems pretty keen to stay at city
Well its half 8 now mate so did you mean 100% not happening?
31 Jan 2013 11:46:31
Third window, third time we see that O'Neill has no better tactics for assembling a squad than he has for organising the players on the field. Every aspect of his management is shambolic and out-of-touch, and we now have coaching and scouting set-ups that are as 'disappointing' (MON's favourite word for describing the tosh we see regularly at the SoL) as the team's performances.
When will Short wake up to the fact that O'Neill is just not a Premier League manager? Do we have wait till he demonstrates it by taking us to the Championship?
Marty is the most decorated manager we have had for a hell of a long time. he as been here for 15 months. to all the so called supporters for god sake give this man a descent run at the job.
Bet Villa wish they still had him !
Bet the skunks wish they had him
I am a little dissapointed if we don't sign anyone else.
However, the players that mon has signed have filled the areas that we were weakest namely lb and now two strikers. We also have a great winger, a possible good midfielder and centre back. What do certain fans expect ?
If he plays 442 I will be happier.
Jeez.
Keep your eyes closed if you like. But we play less football now than we have for years, have some of the slowest and most error prone defenders in the league, no midfield to speak of- Johnson was a 10 million mistake who does not look like a premier league player more than once every four games or so- and no discernable plan to improve. O'Neill has been a major disappointment on all fronts, and won't get any better. The fact that there are some clubs with even more clueless managers is irrelevant, they don't make him any better. We probably are safe for this season- though we won't see much to excite us in the league, and were dumped out of both cup competitions by lower league teams. If you think this enough, you obviously have pretty low expectations and even less ambition.

super kev on his way to hull could just get them promoted
Crystal palace
31 Jan 2013 11:31:03
Looks like graham deal going through really hope he is not the only deal today we are still far too weak while teams all around are strenghtening big style. Come on mon give us a nice suprise
31 Jan 2013 09:58:59
graham turns boro down his moving but where to us norwich wba or the skunks look favs
Newcastle don't want him. No better than Shola.
Maybe will go back to Watford or even Carlisle where he also played
He turned boro, the skunks and every other team down! danny graham sunderlands number 9!
31 Jan 2013 09:42:31
just a thought lads for the people who booed graham the other night if graham does go to boro instead of us which I would put down to the other night and we don't get anyone in today what will be your thoughts. plus I shouldn't say this what if fletcher picks up an injury over the next couple of games. thoughts lads
If he went to boro I wouldn't be bothered why pay 5m for a sub just incase fletch gets injured. We need different style of player to fletch to offer something different if plan a isn't working give opposition something to think about
31 Jan 2013 09:20:20
sent a text to me mates when I saw boro have fee accepted for graham everyone are relieved he might be coming
31 Jan 2013 08:49:39
Looks like the stubborn old fashioned git has put all his eggs in one basket with the geordie and has blown it. We will be left with only fletch and wickham for rest of season oh dear we going down. Could be blessing. Without robertson mon is happless useless clueless and tactically inept. Over 12 months in charge and we are NO better off no matter what you might think
Instead of panick buys I would rather not have anyone coming in yes we might struggle if fletch gets injured but overall we should be ok
I knew O'Neill would get the blame, nothing to do with the persons that booed Graham then?
We booed because graham is not the answer to our pathetic displays. He is just a poor fletcher. Same style offers nothing new to opposition defences we need a different type player on bench not the same. If its not working with fletch what's the point in putting a poorer fletch on?
But now we have 2 fletchers on the field can only be good
31 Jan 2013 08:32:22
On sky now 08:30 boro agree dee with swansea for graham
31 Jan 2013 08:31:10
Danny Graham off to the boro
You're wrong.
31 Jan 2013 08:30:20
Ha ha the smog have now agreed a fee for Graham!!! hope he goes> There are much better strikers out there who haven't slaged us off!
