According to the Sun Dean Whitehurst is signing.
I have three things to say to that NO ,NO,NO
Absolutely garbage and ridiculed this season by Sunderland fans.
Cant pass,cant shoot,can runaround headlessly.

Do you mean Whitehead?
I saw that too mate (Sun linking us with Vignal and Whitehead).
Whitehead must be Plan B after Scholes said no.

We have already got one of those. Any guesses ?

If he signs then it smacks of lack of any willing to push on, we already have better.
Pull the finger out Stoke and sign some quality!

Didn't we try to buy him just before we got Rory and Liam, i seem to remember we were link with him but couldn't afford Sunderlands valuation. Remember, Pulis always gets his man |

Certainly no better than Rory or Amdy Faye in the middle if the uniform contempt he's held in by the S'land fans is any gauge at all.
Haven't we got enough midfield squad filler?
He seems the definition of average at Premier League level.
Hoping it's just a lazy link from this time last year, when his signing would've made some real sense.

If we were trying to sign at this point last season I would be delighted. He hasn't had the best of seasons, but who has at Sunderland? Am pretty confident he is a good quality player and the only way we would know if he is am improvement is if he played for us. Pulis does have a knack of getting the best out of most of the players that he signs.

Sorry lads, got to be in the minority.
Definitely an improvment on Salif, probably an improvement on Amdy, perhaps a little closer to Rory, although even then a better option.
He's not better than Whelan, but I'd much rather Whitehead than Salif or Amdy in the middle and I think he'd be a steady signing. Also, I'd rather him than Butt or Nolan.
And wasn't it the Sunderland fans who were ridculing Liam and Rory? Not done too bad for us, have they.

But, I suspect TP has Plan B in place if Plan A fails. However, this might be the media re-running last year's stories to fill pages. |

But we've already got that cupboard well stocked  I really don't see why we'd need yet another player like him, as you say we've got players at the club already who can do that job, I'm hoping this is just a re-hash of an old story, but we know Pulis loves this sort of player. I just don't see what he would add . ??? he certainly doesn't fit Pulis' mantra of only bringing player in who are "better than what we have". |

In The Mirror also!!..He may turn out to be a good signing but what i will say is that after Stoke played Sunderland off the park at the Brit he justified it by slaughtering Stokes and the football ( his words) we play!...funny how a few grand might sway his opinion?.Saying that if he signs then i will get behind him!!
