Mackem board in meltdown!!

No ones comparing, someone said Sunderland don’t have any.

People are saying Defoe is not a marquee signing. The mind boggles, but that’s fmttm for you
 
News is reaching me that the Lincoln manager is being linked with WBA, hope it doesn't affect them in the second leg....

HE was a marquee signing for sunderland....but at 33 he wouldn't have been for us or many other sides. That's the point. HE's no Alan Boksic, Ravanelli, Viduka in his prime etc. Not even Ziege, Karembeu level. He hadn't won the world cup, champions league, spanish titles, and wasn't the next big thing like Juninho or Emerson not at 33. But that epitomises Sunderland, a big thing for them is signing a 33 year old. They got a good stint out of him, but he had swanned off to MLS after a year bench warming, he was running his career down but somehow eked another 2 decent years out. A 30 plus marquee has to be coming from Barca, Milan, Real not Toronto FC
