Popular Post Paul.. Posted February 21, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 21, 2022 Where is the basis for this accusation of penny pinching? Seems to be a recurring theme Andy, previously you made a thread accusing the club of not paying wages again based on nothing? Then there was another similarly themed thread to have a go at Chansiri with no foundation? Don't get it. Yeah we all know he's fukkcked up loads of stuff, but stirring up crap with little to no foundation, what's the point? 49 10 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As others have said, he's messed up on a grand scale but nothing to talk about here. If he doesn't try to get the pitch sorted in the summer then it's a different matter. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camffiti Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I gave up on promotion, on Feb 1st For whatever reason, we didn't / couldn't bring in a goalscorer on deadline day. Its obvious we desperately need one I'm relaxed about the rest of the season. We might make the play offs, but our chance conversation rate, makes promotion a long shot imo Hopefully bangs in a hat trick at Wembley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah we all know he's fukkcked up loads of stuff, but stirring up crap with little to no foundation, what's the point? Agreed. Yes he cost us promotion but he has stumped up for the likes of Dean and Storey when it was obvious they were needed. Not sure how light bulbs missing has anything to do with DC. You think he’s making calls from thousands of miles away to tell staff to take light bulbs out and the likes ? Fact is we are in with a shout now and have almost a full team out injured as well How many other clubs could cope with that ? Wawaw 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he’s now injured for the rest of the season but we did at least try to cover the forward position. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morganowl Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 but do we know fully why the pitch is such a mess after such a large investment? has the drainage now failed? if so why? even the worst groundsman in the world couldn't get the pitch to be so bad .i mean upto 9 days ago it hardly rained for 8 weeks. but just throwing cheap shots at chansiri all the time isnt the answer , what a mess he caused in 2016 which we have been paying for since is the past , im sure he wont take such stupid advise again and put the club at risk . darren moore has been backed as well as any club in the division ,we have shifted out 95% of the high earners and its now much easier than it has been for 6 years to create a new team . end of day we are in league 1 with a massive hit money wise of upto 10 million a season , we cant afford to shell out another million on a pitch and loads on training facilities unless we cut back on the playing staff. 16 new players wages have been funded , if your now happy with that have a chat with the sunderland supporters who smell blood at the present time with there owners ,or the reading fans or the derby fans . nobody is arguing with the mess chansiri created but seriously wanting a new owner be very wary that there is a lot worse out there ,, all full of promises and spend and do nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdan2003 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I think it’s fairly obvious there’s an element of penny pinching going on. To an extent I understand it and I don’t blame the club/Chansiri for it, guess it happens in most businesses when they’re in a financial pickle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we are all aware of that. But there's been no indication that players haven't been paid right? Despite your sh!t stirring thread in November. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
