    Yeah just seen it. Think Short might sack Brucey though. He their new chairman now so don't think he will be as loyal as Quinn

    Sunderland AFC has announced today that Niall Quinn is to spearhead International Development on behalf of the club.

    This new remit means that Quinn will relinquish his day-to-day Chairman's duties as he focuses on developing Sunderland's profile and business interests overseas. To allow Niall sufficient time to devote to the challenge, owner Ellis Short has agreed to take up the reins as Chairman.

    Speaking about the changes, Niall said: "This is a great opportunity for us to make the club stronger and I'm delighted that Ellis has agreed to support the plan.

    "He'll be a fantastic Chairman and taking this role on speaks volumes about his ambition for the club."

    Ellis Short said: "I can assure our fans that it's the same group of people continuing to lead the club.

    "With financial fair play rules coming into effect it is essential for the long-term success of the club that we develop interests on a global scale and there's no-one better than Niall to sell the ethos of Sunderland to an international audience. He has been keen to drive this change for some time and I agree that it's the way forward for us now."

    "Assuming the position of Chairman is a great honour and I will treat the role as guardian of this club with the utmost respect."

    SAFC's Chief Executive, Margaret Byrne, added: "Niall is widely known and hugely respected throughout the world of football. His profile, coupled with his vast knowledge of the game and the business, means he is perfectly placed to bring Sunderland to the forefront internationally."

    "This new challenge begins immediately as he represents the club at the prestigious Leaders in Football conference in London this week, after which he travels to Korea with Steve Bruce and Mike Farnan, International Marketing Director. Trips to territories such as Vietnam, India, Abu Dhabi and Africa are also taking place in the coming months." ​

    Don't really get what his new job is. Can't be bothered to read it all haha. But, he won't be behind the decisions of sacking managers etc. now will he?
