Yeah joined up late, think his sister opened up a store or something? No idea who the guy is next to Bentley must be a non work mate

Oh I know that’s why Bryan’s is delayed I’m just saying it is possible to announce players before they announce the retained list.

Chair supposedly going with Leicester linked, seen that Willock will be off. I quite like Ainsworth but can see this ending in tears

Have to announce him like this but with “Dickie extension”

Norwich signed Stacey from Bournemouth before announcing the retained list I believe

Thankfully not as hands on as he used to be. Believe Nicky Butt has taken the reigns now, and appointed the new manager who’s taken them to the playoffs.

Plymouth got 2 more points than our promotion season and are same odds as us when Wednesday are shorter? I don’t see Wednesday as too different to when they went down tbh, like you said with sensible recruitment they should be ok but that isn’t a guarentee under the Chansiri’s

Them and Birmingham who have a points deduction. Sheffield Wednesday don’t look that convincing, QPR and Plymouth are same odds as us. Then you have Ipswich being 6th favourite which screams of (what promoted team is most likely to do a Sunderland?)

We finished our season less than a month ago, Premier League finished theirs last weekend. Absolutely ridiculous to moan at this point, Pearson has already said he wants new players in before pre season aswell

I don’t normally look too much into these as they are always fairly inaccurate but some of the teams with shorter odds and are the same odds as us are absolutely laughable

Wish him well, with the runs their front 3 like to make out wide I think he’d be a good addition. Although always preferred him as a full back as opposed to a wing back

Yep had Cirkin out for the playoffs and then didn’t field a centre back for the back end of the season so would imagine they get the likes of Batth and Alese back. Aswell as them no doubt splashing some cash

Yep, really unfortunate timing with our injury situation at the first team. Araoye one who looked really impressive v Bournemouth in pre season who was an injured centre back. Elijah Morrison is being heavily raved about by Tinnion, think his time could come this season and hopefully we see more of OTC

Looks strong but I do remember being really worried the last time all of the promoted sides stayed up and only one made the playoffs and we finished 8th. One team I really fancy this season is Sunderland even without Diallo

Playoffs is definitely achievable whilst they have McKenna. Definitely shouldn’t be seen as a minimum and god help them also if McKenna gets poached mid season

Is a shock he’s in there considering he has struggled for Walsall and didn’t exactly have a debut to remember for us. Clearly rated by Wales so all credit to him

We’ve looked decent but trying to over complicate it for me. We get to the final third and it’s like a hot potato

Problem is Holden started with a system that didn’t make the most of him. Made sense to cash in at the time, which is why it was frustrating that the system was quickly scrapped

Great goal from Osula in fairness

Definitely this, doubt Pearson will be joking with him like that if he was waving goodbye to the away fans after what he said about Massengo doing that last season

Pearson says we’ve offered Dasilva a new contract and new contract for Scott still on the table. Not saying they’re both staying this summer, but doubt any firm decisions from the players have been made yet

Schumacher has worked wonders, thought Lowe was a huge loss at the time but to do what he’s done competing with Ipswich and Wednesday is an excellent achievement

Shock of the century that Cardiff is in for another of our former players

Does anyone know what the requirement for apprentice of the year is?
