Not us. Ours are absolutely horrific.

The home kit is atrocious. Reminds me of the old flybe exeter kit (which was better). Struggle to nail "lower league" better if we had tried.

Why do the socks look like they're designed to prevent strokes post operation?!?!

People will laugh, but i actually do think Rollbit warrants fan push back. Awful company to be associated with.

Is this going to be clever accounting - i.e. we sign Downes so WHU can bank a larger fee and we can split the transfer spend over 4 years etc... and they sign KWP the same way around... or are we in with a chance of lining up with KWP and Sugar as our wing backs next year... Or has a bigger club come in for KWP

Trying to see how this doesn't look terrible on our striped shirts as well... Let alone the headlines where we get rolled over 😆

What an atrocious sponsor.

I'd have been more likely to cancel mine had tanswell moved back, the worst one though was Sheldon.

Think we need to just acknowledge that SR don't care about the academy tbh. They binned off most of the key staff that took the these batches through and developed them and they're now making no serious attempt to even keep what are some serious prospects. Feels like all they really want to do is buy young kids from elsewhere that they can sell on for a profit - seemingly no interest in developing our own home grown talent through to the first team.

Tbh, if we can't match lyon's wages for our best academy player it's pretty laughable. This is a pretty damning day all in.

I actually reckon Carlton Morris may not be a bad shout for us, certainly someone who can fill the Che Adam's void.

Thing of beauty: Disgusting Sunderland kit 🤮: ( Or at least, a pretty grim knock off) 😛 But lets be serious here for a second. The white chevrons look cluttered, the striped sleeves are bad and add to that clutter, and the stripes from the sleeves and the shirt body don't align. Its a shocking striped shirt.

That's horrendous FYI.

Tweaked it slightly... He Signed from A-ZEEEEEEEE!!! Whilst EAAATTTSS SUSHIIIIIIEEEEE He Fuck-ING H8888TES POMPEEEEEEE Sugawara, he's our man! I was bored, be gentle 🤦‍♂️🙃

Agreed. The kid has everything he needs to take off imo. It would be such a shame if we are genuinely interested in him and it ends up being with someone else.

That's easily one of the best youtube highlights reels i've seen for a CM at saints. Imagining him in the middle alongside Downes. Failure to sign him now would result in only one thing i'm afraid...

Probably never been in the Gods in his life in all fairness 🤣

Championship footy clearly high on his list. That or they're paying him a fair whack.

That's what hassenhuttle thought... for like 2-3years...

I'd be even more worried that he thinks Macca and Lumley are enough for half the season personally.

Why in hell would we throw in £10M for a player that is no longer on Tottenhams books? The last thing anyone needs to give levy is charity.

I'd personally say we're fairly break even on Man City signings. Lavia was a huge profit and great Signing. THB was a very astute acquisition and one that will turn a profit. Edozie will come good. Bazunu is a bit uncertain now. Shea Charles i'm not sure over, and Larios has just been bitterly unlucky with bad injury problems.

Broja has 3 goals in all competitions since the start of the 22/23 season. Delap scored 8 last season for Hull.

Broja is fooked mate. Bad injury, loss of confidence and form, and struggled at both chelsea and Fulham. Conversely £!5M for delap is us singing one for the future - and that kid is certainly on course to make the step up based on attributes and his actual performances - he is exactly the kind of player we should be getting in as a back up striker now, and one that will flourish into a good first team player over the next couple of seasons. Doesn't change the fact that what we need is a starting no.9 though - but anyone saying £25M for the post ACL Broja (who is a shadow of the player we briefly had at saints) is off their rocker imo - Saints don't have that kind of money to waste - let alone on a player who (even at his peak for us) shouldn't be the main man relied on to keep the current team up - and that is when he was fit. Signing Broja is us wasting £25M (at that price), would be mental. He's not up to the required standard at all.

Oof, MLG got his facts wrong here then!
