Sunderland till I die

Post by Oforever »

Anyone else watched this? I have seen the first five episodes (of six) of the second series. The transfer of Will Grigg is interesting, they offered £1m and said that was their final offer only to go back with an offer of £3m at deadline. Their manager, Jack Ross, said he was worth no more than £1m. Interesting viewing.

I watched the first series. Very interesting.

Great club, Sunderland. I wish them well.

Is the second series on netflix?

Started watching season two. At points I thought it was a new season of the office...

Laughed at how they tried to make league one football look exciting when they played Charlton

Finished season two. God that posho is a tw*t. My idea of hell working for someone like him.

Cant help but feel that Donald bought them knowing that if he could get them promoted and balance the books, he could sell quickly and make a profit.

The new owner definitely has the David Brent about him.

The new owner can`t have done much research before he bought AFC Sunderland. As soon as he saw the wage bill, he started to talk about selling the club!

They have some unbelievable supporters up there.
