Connor Wickham on Sky 21:06 - Feb 28 with 3360 views | Chris_ITFC | Never scored more for a club than his 15 for us. Who would have predicted that when he left! Certainly one way to sum up the sadness of that unfulfilled potential. |  | | |  |

Marcus Evans man *Appreciate we got decent money for Wickham but it was still a shame, and in hindsight and ignoring the £££, the move came too early for him. |  |

Yeah, ironically, we made an absolute killing when you look at how his career went... £££ |  | |  |

You can’t ignore the money buh! It allowed us to push on with the key signings of Michael Chopra, Nathan Ellington, Jimmy Bullard (the 2nd), JET and Ivar Ingimarsson. |  |

Nothing wrong with the business we did on Wickham. The criminal one was letting Rhodes go for peanuts. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

It was terrible business, in that we didn't progress, re-invest and our owner ended up losing 100mil or thereabouts of his own money for a third tier club. Had we kept Rhodes/Wickham we may have managed to get into the Playoffs one season and up, and made significantly more than the sales of both brought in. |  |

Surely the bad business is what we did after, not that fact that we got very good money for Wickham? |  | |  |

Any longer and we'd have risked punishment by the FA for having had both him and Rhodes on the books at one point. |  |

Yeah, but the FA would have punished us heavily if we'd ever played the pair of them together. |  |

The worst business we did that season was keeping Famous Roy in a job past mid-september. |  |

We replaced Rhodes with Priskin essentially |  |

I don't think Wickham made a bad move, he was just unlucky that he got a knee injury & by the time he was fit again, he had fallen out of favour with new sunderland manager Martin O'Neill, under whom the club were having something of a revival. |  |

Rhodes was down to Keane. Ego and stupidity is a dangerous combination. |  | |  |

Sort of. Jordan was collateral damage in the row between Andy and Roy. #footballdads |  | |  |
