Harte has buckets of top flight experience and didn't cost 6 bloody million.

Hasn't Jones got 18 in 18 two seasons ago and something like 15 in 23 last season. Not bad.

I don't rate Ian Harte, but when did he fail?

Willow85

On what basis - the 150 games or so he's played at that level?

He's more than good enough for a bottom half of the table side. Which is what we're aiming for right now. </BLOCKQUOTE>

you'd kind of have to look at how well he's played in those games ("not very" is a clue tbh)

least he's a tryer though </BLOCKQUOTE>

As a centre half I've always quite liked him, so I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Both previous prem sides he was a regular in were relegated :thup:

Please tell me he's good. </BLOCKQUOTE>

he could be potenially a very good signing for you. he rarely loses a header and is pacey. his balls skills used to be dreadful but has improved alot over last year. i would question his attitude as would you want a player who goes on strike and refuses to play until he gets a transfer?

Hating on Harte yet claiming Higginbotham is a good signing

This man's a genius </BLOCKQUOTE>

Just saying, he's only young... if he scores a couple at the weekend all of a sudden £6m won't be such a bad deal.

Why do we nowadays insist on judging players before giving them a proper chance?

Alwyas good fare on hear when Sunderland sign someone. Albie certainly with some interesting views.

Some would say it's the move he was born to make then.
