Colback Staying With Town
at 13:04:24

I see David Healey is saying that he plans to leave Sunderland and would have no problems dropping a division or two. Personally I wouldn't mind getting Dave Kitson in on loan or would that be too much ginger for one team?

Good news about Colback, and Lee-Barrett certainly deserves a longer contract after 3 clean sheets in 6 games. On his current form I think it would be unfair to drop him when Murphy becomes available.
As for Stern John, why do we need him. We already have one lazy striker and we actually paid for him. Send Stern John back and get Kevin Philips in. I know Keane generally gets players in for the long term plan but sometimes it's about the here & now and Phillips can certainly still do a job for us to get us away from the bottom of the table.

I'd be quite happy to see Stern John return to his parent club but I'd like to see Colback stay and I think Lee-Barrett deserves a longer term contract than just as he hasn't put a foot wrong.

And people aren't talking about Curbishley because he has said numerous times that he will not take a step down into the Championship.

I get the feeling Fulham fans felt the same when rumours of Hodgson taking over surfaced - now look at them.
Keeping the faith is all well and good, and believe me I support the lads as much as anyone making a return journey of 600+ miles for the home games (season ticket holder Sir Bobby Robson stand), but at what point do you say "Oh well, Div 1 next season - but I'm glad we stuck by Keane to achieve it"?! He just isn't good enough I'm afraid. I'd have more respect if the board just held their hands up and said "Yes, we got it wrong." We are 11 games in to the season and already 5 points adrift.
Keeping faith doesn't make a poor team play better, this team is struggling and struggling badly. We have now lost against teams at the top and teams at the bottom.
Not sure if MaClaren is the right choice (and I also think it is probably paper talk) but he won a trophy with a shite team like Middlesborough and took them into a UEFA final and he got his current club into Europe. He might be a poor International manager but as a club manager he isn't too shabby.
