Why do you think their's is bigger than ours ? Because of the fact they've sold millions worth of players over the past year or so. really ?

Apart from Reece James, there aren't many better left backs available on a free. I wonder who DC has lined up?
I still see potential in Bola given a run of consecutive games

Peterborough signed a LB Jason Naismith from Ross County said to be one of the best in the SPL - 6 figure fee - but Ross Co were bottom and would struggle in the League below us. Spending over £1m already but cashing in on Marriott, Maddison, Forrester, Grant & da Lopez Silva all moving on. He's a right back and they've done well to get him considering he was being linked with Sunderland and Championship clubs. It sounds like Sunderlaand are struggling to shift players, perhaps they won't be as strong as feared next season? www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/jason-naismith-ends-talk-sunderland-14778470

I'm not sure what to expect from them really. They've still got some decent players on their books and some quality youngsters at the club. I certainly wouldn't be 'fearing' them though.

They will struggle to shift players. Jack Rodwell apparently, is on 70k a week ! He refuses to play, they can't get rid of him as nobody wants him because of his attitude and wages. That alone is probably more than the entire players budget at Rovers.

Apparently his wages have dropped to £40k per week (bless him) and he does now want to leave and Sunderland are trying to reach an agreement. rokerreport.sbnation.com/2018/6/12/17452954/an-update-on-the-contract-situations-of-sunderland-midfielders-jack-rodwell-and-lee-cattermole

Being now apparently debt free with a massive home attendance for Div 1 plus the continued parachute payments they could be a real force, although the new manager is hardly inspiring and you do wonder if the ex-Eastleigh owner has taken on a task which is well beyond both his ability & bank balance!

I think the old owner wrote off the debt so as Topper says they are debt free. With the parachute payments being £32m then I would imagine we will be playing for second place next season like all other League 1 clubs. Rodwell will go I would suppose but surely he wasn’t refusing to play was he, that would be breach of contract and any board of directors with balls would suspend any player doing that. Either way it’s not a level playing field and I have little sympathy for the club who have been badly manager over a period of time. UTG!

He hardly turned up for training. I recall reading that Chris Coleman had hardly seen him !

Not L1 but Exeter have sold CB Jordan Storey for a reported £750k and he only made his full league debut in February.
We had to sell 2 of our best players to even reach that amount!!

You are right of course, I wasn’t disagreeing just being gobsmacked that he could do that and still get paid! I read the same thing and thought well you’re the manager do something about it. UTG!
