Connolly signs for Sunderland

Breaking news on SSN David Connolly has left Wigan for Black Cats.
Seems Roy Keane is trying to sign anyone that has Irish links.

Shame we didnt ask for a sell on clause as well as £3 mill, his home debut gonna be against us whats the betting..... :-(

 

[Graz]

They signed him for £1.4m... Wigan lost half their money on him in a year!

I think if Wigan had put Heskey and Connolly together it could've worked quite nicely. Hopefully DC won't come back to haunt us.

I'm sure if our groundsman puts some preservative on the goalposts we will be fine:icon_roll

Sell on clauses are usually based on getting the percentage of profit from future sales. As they made a loss maybe they expect us to pay a percentage of that :icon_conf

It was a panic buy in the first place, Leicester got 3m for a player who had scored 1 in 3 at championship level, thats daylight robbery.

Was never going to be quite good enough for the premiership. A decent signing for Sunderland though.

IMO Keane has made some excellent signings, he has been sensible and signed players that he knows well from previous clubs or international duty. IMO he has also signed players who will do very well at this level.

I think Sunderland will do very well now this season.

Highlights..., dont you have the telly at your home. Actually been tempted to go Wigan for a while to tick a stadium off the list if the attendance against Reading was ought to go by should have no probelm for tickets.

Been there, unless watching Leicester it has not a lot to recommend it.

Pedant! I was more referring to the ground - actually, to be fair, it must have the highest proportion of loos to paying customers in any ground I've been to. And the bar service at half-time was pretty smartish too.

I hope they've got decent goalposts

We'll be testing them out in a few weeks.

Roy Keane's already got David Connolly working hard on the training ground
