Leveller Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Strange goings on at Sunlun who’ve just announced that Pritchard wants to leave and is refusing to play.

I think that sums it up.Theyre saying he’s been offered a one year extension on reduced money. Edited January 27 by Leveller 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
formerly known as ivan Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Of course it’s unprofessional! They pay his wages, how can he refuse to play. The only Sunderland fans who will agree with him are those who still believe they are a big club and have a right to be in the premier league. They have been petty ever since Beale was appointed. Manning had mixed reviews when joining us but Sunderland were embarrassing about Beale. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

formerly known as ivan Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Looks like they are doing alright without him anyway. I wonder how much arrogance is involved that he will be gutted to see them winning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chinapig Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 As I posted on the Transfer Forum when he was subbed in their last home game he was raging at Beale and pointing at another player, presumably suggesting they should have been taken off not him. Downhill from there I assume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nest Egg Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 One of those where if his attitude wasn't so poor he would have been a Premier League regular. Huddersfield fans saying that he threw his toys out of the pram when it all started going wrong for them too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashton Fete Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Sounds petulant unless he’s done this to force a transfer to us in which case we’ll be singing his name at Leeds… Attacking midfielder is the signing predicted.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelts Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 I like him as a player . Going on strike not a good idea and won’t endear you to some fans . Be a few takers for him . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie BCFC Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Good player, dealt with this wrong but a lot of Sunderland fans turning on Beale interestingly. Do remember at Rangers, Gerrard was very much the man manager whilst Beale was the tactical side. Is his lack of man management costing him here?

Mr Popodopolous Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 (edited) Here is what I would consider looking into if I was Sunderland. Rules may not allow for it I hasten to add..but here goes. You don't want to play? You don't get paid. Breach of contract?? If that in conjunction with Sunderland still holding his registration can be aligned, he could be stuck there in breach until the summer or in limbo until then. Either that or pay him and banish him from the side, training etc. Edited January 27 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TV Tom Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 I suppose his only excuse is that he is in the twilight of his years of earning decent money, back in the days he would of had to spend the next 30 years of being a postman or pub landlord 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Popodopolous Posted February 19 Report Share Posted February 19 (edited) The only real sackings so far which have definitively been for the better have been Rohl and Cifuentes. The others? Treading water at best. Obviously the odd one you don't get a choice ie Schumacher quitting to go to Stoke, he hasn't yet done impressively there but I do believe he left a strong base at Plymouth. Plus Mowbray for Rooney of course. Edited February 19 by Mr Popodopolous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
