Michael Starr 493 Posted July 25, 2021 It's slightly old news but I've just watched Sunderland Til I die on Netflix on BOY O BOY what a mess of a football club that is. How can they get it so wrong up there? It makes what we do here seem just incredible really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rock bus 757 Posted July 26, 2021 I belatedly watched that earlier this year. Fantastic show but also made me so grateful at how our club is being run at the moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The point is that they are in trouble because of the huge gamble that they took with the finances of the club. They were lucky that Short was prepared to write off most of the debt. If Sunderland were to be run on a sustainable basis such as ours, they would be a regulars in the Premier League and with a ground capacity of 49,000 could be one of the top clubs in the country.
