I’ve donated Horc. As it has been so quiet on here during this horrendous time I’ve been using vital to keep up with events and its through vital this idea came about I think. It’s a great idea just to let the club the management and players know that we are fully behind them still. Pity we cannot have a massive banner describing our feelings for Begbys and the poxy EFL.
Our administration has been different though egg. We didn’t run out of money and couldnt pay the players and we were paying the necessary debts on time. For whatever the real reason is Choi and Yeung planned it to happen and scarpered at the earliest opportunity. At the time we had huge assets in Robinson and Gelhardt who would have brought in millions a few week later a d all would have been rosy. Unlike all the other clubs as well we were only operating for a few months without fans before admin. This season we have been running on less than a shoestring budget selling off what’s needed to fund the cost of this season. Using academy players on very low wages and bringing in players who were unwanted elsewhere again earning buttons. All the other clubs have still been trying desperately to operate as normal. So I dont see how we can be in a worse position during this period than the rest. Our debt is still coming down and if an owner comes in and pays the asking price it should disappear. How many other clubs will be saying the same
Because every other club has an owner who can put money in when needed.
We are paying the wages albeit small, with income alone and no other means of generating money.
Absolutely correct egg but we are not amassing debts along the way trying to survive the season that’s my point. Many other clubs are going further into debt so as long as a new owner pays the asking price we will be ok even if it’s in Div 2.

Streaming channels and other small incomes you quote come nowhere near to the monthly wage bill mutt you still have players earning obscene wages and parachute payments only last 3 seasons. Surely you must be worried especially as you have followed our struggles. I came to like Your owner as he seemed to understand the need to make massive cutbacks in expenditure although he didn’t have the necessary time to implement them before covid hit. He also saw he needed massive investment from outside or he would need to sell up. Again thanks to this covid shit he has had to put the club up for sale. Sure once fans are allowed in again Sunderland can make a recovery by getting the masses back into the stadium but I’m sure at present their debt is growing on a weekly basis.
Just watched Sunderland till I die season 2 for the 2nd time how the fuck Sunderland are surviving this pandemic fuck knows Programme was 18 19 season so just before pandemic. Wage bill was 40 mill plus upkeep of Stadium of light, academy of light beacon of light. They stayed down again so are getting the same money as us as no fans allowed. Wages now probably over 15 times our wage bill and we are robbing Peter to pay Paul just to pay our low low wage bill. Proposed new owners up there must be bailing them out to the tune of millions or how the fuck are they surviving. Must be many more clubs in our division on the brink of disaster when you look at our plight and desperate fight to stay alive. Scary times ahead for many.
Sixfields better than the DW ? What the feck are you smoking New Meadow and Plough Lane half the size of the DW. Nrw Meadow out in the sticks. Valley probably the 3rd hardest ground to get to after Selhurst Park and Spurs stadium. Milton Keynes Bowl, it’s in Milton Keynes enough said. Get real mutt lad. DW is a great stadium that just needs a few cosmetic upgrades.
Where does all this shit keep coming from its total bollox and making things worse for us the fans. I just wish we knew the fucking truth for once.
People’s heads?
Quite how we get from IL to possibly selling Wigan Rugby to a current Wigan Rugby shareholder, to said shareholder buying Latics i’m not so sure.
Pollard himself has said he ain’t selling the Warriors

Statistics will probably show he is the worst keeper. He has cost us so many points against some of the weakest teams we have ever played. But again his defense has to shoulder the same blame if not more. We are in a nightmare situation and he is a part of the nightmare but not the only part. Everything has conspired against the club with devastating consequences and it has affected Jones very badly. Had we still been in the championship with last seasons team Jones probably doesn’t make half the mistakes he has made up to now.
It aint just the lads fault egg circumstances at the club have turned him into the worst keeper. The poor guy has had different players in front of him every week and his nerves are shot. There is no way he can recover this season because we are utter garbage and that’s down to those running the club at present. We cannot sack them unfortunately and the takeover is taking an eternity so there is only one outcome I’m afraid. I’m surprised we didn’t sign a keeper in Jan but again that’s down to the clowns running us.
We dont want to get out of the bottom 4. We have had so many chances over the last few weeks playing all those around us and as soon as a victory takes us out the relegation zone we put in a horrific performance. We have gone for sure unless 4 teams around us go into administration.
