I've not mentioned Keano in my post, and I wouldn't want him back here....Ross needs to get into his players and show he cares to the crowd.

I never said you did. I was just making the point quite a few have short memories. I’m with you, Keane is yesterday’s man, don’t need to go backwards.
 
Also say it's all confirmed etc this week. They could be having all sorts of meetings about who will be the new manager and maybe a DOF etc. Drawing up a short list and arranging meetings will take a lot of organisation imo

Agree, I think it was last home game, looked like their player lashed out at Power right in front of the dugouts. If Ross had been more animated it could and should have been a red card instead of a yellow. He seems to conscious of keeping this cool headed intellectual persona.

I’d forgotten that. Boiled my pi55.

Not asking for him to be a raving lunatic on the touchline, just show that he gives a toss every now and then....if the team are performing, then he can be chilled....

yes I agree, If we are winning and playing well, there’s no need for the manager to be doing much, but we aren’t so just standing there doesn’t show much passion

That post's got me thinking so much, it's given me a headache mate :cheesy: :emoticon-0107-sweat.
Would make sense for potential Managers and DOF's to meet the new owners too, I suppose. Flying from all over the place...... Foreign? <doh> :cheesy:

The 2 week break gives the opportune moment to get this sorted.
We've made a few changes at this time of year in the past. Could this be the biggest??

There are many explanations mate, but like I say, this is unprecedented in our history, and it all seems a pipe dream. Nearly 50 years of ****, why should it change now, it’s like me winning the rollover. That’s my default stance because it is what those 50 years have done to me. My lad who I go to the games with, ever since he was a tot old enough to talk, it was football, football, football. He’s 25 now and is all he ever talks about, nothing else matters. He was making arrangements to go to Shrewsbury. Yesterday he actually uttered the words! “ at this moment, I’ve no interest in football”. Of course he will get it back by next game, but not sure how many kicks he can take, especially since he was Leicester born and we lived there for the first 8 years of his life. Come 5pm on a Saturday he must ****ing hate me. We’ve had the Germans, that Campbell fella, which looks like it could be a blessing, all falling through. We need this break because staying here, we are going to lose a generation of fans, even though the mags are at a low. Apologies for the pessimism marra, but that is me in a nutshell.

Ladies and gentlemen, can we all just remember we have a nice Leasing.Com Trophy game on Tuesday?

Jack ain't going anywhere.

If a announcement is made on the takeover being off, I'd imagine it'll be at the game... So no one... Well the people that go anyway can't react straight away

The vast majority has been ****, I noticed you included relegations in your summary, were they not **** to you. How many times have we won at Wembley in those play offs, yes that’s right, ****

What I am saying is that we have had more success than the vast majority of league clubs in that time, but the ups and downs, including relegations, have all been part of the roller coaster ride which is the life of a Sunderland fan.. I back the team regardless, and never call them ****e as they are the club I love..
