Aye we recorded a preview and it was mint but everyone involved went and sold their players, so upon hearing the news of Jack Clarke's imminent departure our Gav and Martin sat down for a chat at 1am.

Fabrizio Romano announced on his social media feed at 22:24 on Thursday night that our Jack the lad will be leaving Sunderland AFC for Ipswich Town following a medical on Friday morning so...

How are we taking this news?

• Is the £20 million fee with an as yet unknown sell-on clause enough for one of our most talented players?

• What do we think RLB will do for now to address the absence of Jack on the left?

• Wilson Isidor is very close to an announcement as a Sunderland player; so what do we know about the former Rennes, Monaco and Zenit forward?

• The promising young RB Salzburg striker Roko Simic could be a Sunderland player soon if reports are to be believed; do we like the look of him?

• The Mendy saga continues with another statement from the player on his wish to join Sunderland;

• Oh and we play Burnley tomorrow yes so the lads squeeze a bit in about their ever evolving squad and our prospects against them as they visit the Stadium of Light for a rare 3pm kick-off...

It's all going on.

Thanks for the memories Jack! Ha'way the Lads!
