I know Sundland have signed 9 players, but Where's the quality. I don't see any real improvement on last season, Bent and henderson are gone, both real talent, going backwards. Come on Brucie Get some proper players or there'll be a stuffing from the Geordies.

Cum on Mackems

Wot you on about. this squad is miles stronger than last season

They may not be world beaters but at least you have some depth now. You're excuse for losing 10 games out of your last 12 was having so many injuries. This should prevent that from happening.

WARNING: mike ashley billionaire has shares in numerous businesses owns a football club that he has become bored with, as he knows he has taken them as far as he can. also knows that he is not going to run the club at a loss as the sale would then come non viable so no big signings will be made as he needs to keep the wage bill down. he also knows that no matter where they finish in the league he will still have a full house as the fans are still living in the days of kk and kd so no reason to take a gamble on players. he will scour the lower leagues and small foreign clubs looking for young talent who he hopes will show improvement and sell them on at a profit with the money going into his retail business and not the club. this man is one very greedy individual so beware if he tries to buy into your club after the sale of newcastle, try and do everything you can to stop him as this could seriously damage your clubs improvement.

King asley. f@cKs the mags right up lol.

Is that rick astley or mike ashley you refer too?

Asley? Something really wrong in this post The man has built a club back up financially and got the club running as a profit making viable business that can stand on its own feet yet still he is deemed a failure If being a successful business man worth over 800 million is failure the i hope i can be a failure too. He not the greatest where his football knowledge comes into it but no one can deny the man can run a business and make money

There was never a King Asley in this country you retard. Check your history.

why are we signing all the man united rejects? and all the old players, henderson went for 20mil bent 35mil both quality players and we get a young unproven teen for 10mil and all the players ready for hanging boots up, shame bruce won't buy any talent that's proven and at there peak can see us struggling next season but rumours have it we're after a world class midfielder and a previous golden boot sriker, maybe roy keane and kevin phillips both a load of toss {Ed016's Note - We sold Darren Bent for £24 million not £35 million and to be fair I dont think us sunderland fans got to see much of this "quality" Jordan Henderson has got}

Stop talking crap, We need a proven goalscorer and a left winger, have faith in Bruce and Quinn they know what they doing. you must be the only sunderland fan to not be happy so far with our signings, Bent wanted to go for more money. 20m for Henderson was a bargain and he was poor for a fair bit of last season. so stop your twisting and get behind Bruce and SAFC

You need prayers lads. Another hameering on the cards on the 2nd game of the season. . boo hoo hoo

Funny when geordie's get the reality check they deserve, relegation for the scum this season. SGBS

Funny, you said the same last season. Jackass.

ellis short has an estimated fortune of 1 billion plus around the same as mike ashley before he took over at newcastle due to the current economic climate ashley has dropped to 750 million, as his fortune is tied up in deals where as short is retired but has still kept his title as president of loan star loans the biggets loan company in the world so his money is in the bank. As sir alan sugar said recently ye can have ye fortune wrapped up in business deals and companies but if we have a big crash like we did before its only worth the paper ye can wipe ye a*** with. people like sugar and short as sugar said i can go to the bank tomorrow and withdraw 100 million pounds something people like sugar and short can do but ashley cant

Thats wrong ashley sold 90% of sports direct shares after floating the company and making another 750 million just after his fortune went down to about 750 million so he was a billionaire again.then he was kept as a director with 10% shares and sports direct mysteriously started to go down hill and ashley bought it back for nearly 200 million and for the last year its been doing real well and is worth nearly 600 million again and he went out and had big part in america blowing 200k on champagne. .ashley is a f****** p**** and we all know it but he knows how to make money shame he won't give it to us for players. .unhappy mag

Ashley pocketed £929 million(mind bending)in one day when he floated sports direct.
thats in his bank.
dont know how much now tho but sports direct are doing really well.

have yous still got 80% wage bill

Yer right mate i knew ashley done well but was clever to stop on start running in down then re buying shares and now owns it again ans pocketed the big sum in one day think it stands him roughly about 250 million and again its worth 800 million as it made 1.47 billion lasy year alone that's why he blocked the 20 million blacks help and started to buy out blacks. the mans a genius just don't know why he won't spend on the maggs. .he obviously thought when he bought us it was cheap until the loan had to be repaid for the stadium which cost 130 million .

Ashleys money is tied up in deals he has his fingers in that many pies that if the stock market crashes he will end up skint the money he has made is put back into other business around the world on the other hand if he sold all his business interests he would be worth 2.5 bill but as shown this week would rather pump 7 mill into 2 clothes retails than screwcastle who seem as though they are an hobby for him

If you where a billionaire would you put money in football club where you never get a return or spend 20, 30, 40 million and make a 100 million any body with half a brain(makems ruled out) would make money not spend it. .

Dont think he would be skint are you serious.

If the stock market crashes like in 1987and you got ye money in the wrong companies ye end up with 0 every so often it happens richer men than ashley have gone to the wall

Every penny he owns is not on stock is it. .nufc paid for and we actually made 16 million profit without carrol money (check the times) thens there karrimoor, slazenger, dunlop, 15% addidas, and otheres sports direct and blacks. so yes i know what your saying about wall st 1987 but they are all investment bankers who put every penny they own in shares just like the bank firm bearings who went pop.

Which is why MA money is tied up in his own business cos that way he only has to rely on himself If you check the times rich list he is on thier as being worth over 1.4 billion with estimated cash wealth of 650 million so who was it who said all his money tied up in business?

glad to see sunderland come out with statement on the defoe and nzogbia rumours finally putting to bed the stories appearing on here and the media. both defoe and nzogbia agents spoke to and wages were a put off straight away also like gibson who wanted double his wages he received from man utd the club are finally seeing sense and like a lot of other clubs won't be held to ransom by players, agents and fat wage cheques.

Bet N'zogbia wanted £65,000 and Defoe about £90,000 a week. Not worth that, Villa are welcome to them

Anyone who would even consider paying Defoe 90k per week is a moron. There are way better strikers out there for the price yous would have paid for him.

09 Jul 2011 10:27:09
We are not bidding for Defoe or N'zogbia (sky sports news)

Dames :(

Yeah right trust me there coming to sunderland we have the money get in

Bruce is just mixing the press up a bit

Ed do you think we are going to spend big or are we just spending the henderson money we got as that's what i think we are doing. i would like to think a big named player will come just think short is keep the purse strings shut for big transfers. {Ed008's Note - I expect a couple more players to come in another striker,a winger, maybe another defender.

To be fair look at Brown and O'shea, they weren't supposed to be coming and then we signed them both on the same day. would be good if we get them but think Bruce and Quinn have the players in mind

09 Jul 2011 10:03:42
ive seen rumours that we need a left back, isn't that where bardsley will play, maybe i am wrong and brown and o shea are playing in the middle but i thought brown was playing on the right so that meant bardo would play left.

anyways, a striker is needed. defoe, pogrybenyak, crouch, pav, adebayor and cisse are all options.

the way the team is going it looks like sessegnon, larsson, gardner or vaughan arnt going to start. that is only if the nzogbia rumours are true.

to be honest it looks like a season of unhappy players that can't get first team that was promised to them

09 Jul 2011 00:38:37
no way would we match nzog £65 grand wages, never mind pay £75 g
