Sunderland

If our new owner had deep pockets and we were able to pay fees, if we are talking about buying young promising players with possible sell on value then we should at least be having a word with ManU about Amass. He will cost a lot, but he's the type of player who is only going to get better and can likely be sold for a lot more than we pay for him  - and we can guarantee him first team football which he might not get so much at ManU. 

Same with Ipswich when they went to EPL. 

Four years time we will be looking back thinking how far we’ve come.

It will take a relegation but really good things are upon us

I think the best we can expect there is another season long loan.

It's hard to believe the 2 separate paths we've been on as clubs, since narrowly losing in the plays to them, in 2022.

They have had their tough times lately, but I think moving to their current ground gave them the opportunity to be a much bigger club than they used to seem and bounce back better from hard times

Hopefully we can tap into the same potential. I've noticed that Hillsborough has a lot of the same old faces sat around me, for many years.

We need to tap into the possibilities to attract new fans and even football tourists. That can only be done through improved facilities and a winning team.

At the moment we have neither.....

I still think of Arsenal 1993 as separate paths

They moved out of Roker Park in the last century. I’m not sure their move to the SOL is much to do with their upwards trajectory as they’ve had some very rough times since they flitted.

People said similar when Chansiri first took over and was splashing the cash.

Would say look a different paths Sheffield United and Sunderland have took since the play off final in May 

United probably should have won that day.

Although United have sadly picked up last few weeks.

I'm not sure we'll get that opportunity in L1 unless we buy him. Doubt we can buy him, but money talks and it's definitely worth the ask as he is exactly the type of player with a huge upside.
