Has anyone mentioned the Graeme Murty link yet? Presumably Murty and Beale both worked together at Rangers under Gerrard. It could be that he was always on our radar because of this connection.
I think the backlash from a couple of hundred internet users is completely irrelevant to a billionaire mind m8
Just a small thing. Asked a lad in the Liverpool setup directly about him. He says top class coach. Brilliant with players and said his sessions were so different when he landed, players loved training. Also said he thought he was just a decent fella who talked sense and didnt really see why he would be a rubbish man manager. Pinch of salt because Liverpool loved him, but there you go anyway. Doubt any of us would argue his coaching upbringing at Chelsea, Liverpool, Sao Paulo, isnt top level. Dodds been exceptional two games, but does he have that pedigree? Does Helborg, Still etc?
He doesn't read this **** or that other **** over the road. He's a billionaire with many choices and opportunities in life. He's not wasting that time reading and considering the views of Barry from Hetton who works at Nissan.
Everton had a 'more modern approach' and kept going backwards with the likes of Benitez, Ancelotti, Marco Silva and Martinez. It was only when they appointed Dyche, who was universally reviled by Everton supporters, that they actually made progress.
It’s a very negative take on why KLD came on board in the first place We’re a baby billionaire’s My First Football Club which is far better than being Stew and Charlie’s clown car with bits falling off and glitter coming out the exhaust
Agree. Let him have a go. I also agree with the notion of the record we have here of giving managers a year or so not helping at all. Ive said this often in the past. How can it do any other than harm? Whatever good reasons there have been for managers being replaced here, a coach has to look at his future. They will not be Sunderland supporters. They have been seeing, for a long time, through a few owners, managers getting about a year plus, and it will not help at all. Coaches don't get all that many chances when they are hot or warm property. It might explain, in part at least, why we don't employ in demand coaches. Or employed ones from a comparable level.
That may or may not be true m8, all we know is Mowbray was in charge at the start of the season and apparently we were interested in a foreign coach who went to nice
We're an English club who've had Mowbray, Neil, Johnson, etc ... ... we're in the play-offs again. If none of the foreign coaches impressed, in their interviews, why hand them the job?
