They get this wrong from day one and they will know what a s**t storm really looks like.. 5 bloody months.
I’m worried about the length of time, equally I’d be worried if a smaller group selected after 1 round because of availability. There are people on RTG saying that Cifuentes is overrated, lying that Rosenior was not liked in Hull, everyone gets a hater.
I just left Abu Dhabi recently where there is a sizable Liverpool fan base… I played golf with a lot of them.. if you think we moan.. check those out.. they finished 3rd in the premier league, won a cup and you would think they just did a Sheffield Utd.. At least some of the negative comments I have read on here and other areas of social media are not without justification
I have a cluster of 4 mates who are Liverpool fans. Unlike yours they think they are going to win even when the whistle has blown or the season ended. They are so superior.
@OldNewtown l'm still being Patience, but may become a Patient if it goes on alot longer. Dyslexia rules, no he is not being interviewed.
Happy if it was MC, did a bit of an underrated job at QPR, they looked dead when he came in and kept them up with ease! Although that could just be a slight on the job ainsworth was doing. if it is only 6 figures then go and get him if he’s the one!
Whoever takes the helm now...what a ****in ride! Enjoyed every single twist and turn! Great work everyone; tremendous entertainment, which is what this board is at its best. Folk looking for a Sunderland outlet when not much is actually happening. Tremendous
To be honest this is wearing everyone out - they need to appoint someone and then we desperately need the season so that we can talk about football and stop all this crap which is dividing the fans - there will never be 100% agreement but let's get a manager and back to football.
His track record, what formation he plays, which types of players he might favour, who should be sold/kept/loaned etc
His accent, his facial blemishes, how he's 'not from round here' so 'doesn't get us', what fans of his previous club said about him, how friendly he is with Speakman, whether he knows Mike Dodds.
Shame about Jansen, seemed to tick a lot of boxes about how we go about things with the youth. Still think it will be Rosenior, chucked a fiver on when it broke about Still being out of the running a week ago or so. Just dont see any other realistic candidate at this point, unless it ends up being someone that hasnt been mentioned at all.
We can talk about how this guys tactics and YouTube videos goes against every other manager we have been linked with and watched and background checked and compare how the editing was done on each video, then kick off with the club because one might have a better video than the other
Strangely enough I'm probably swimming against the tide somewhat, if anything I'm feeling a little more confident that we may get some positive news tomorrow. Why else would information be leaking from the club as to who isn't getting the job? Nurse, nurse, it's time for my meds On a more serious note I really don't understand this faux outrage by certain individuals, yes it's not a great look but all the shouting and screaming won't effect who will be our next Head Coach. Well other than possibly putting some of our targets off. Nor will it change when that appointment is made. There is very little factual information out there at the moment so I'm just going to sit back and see who is appointed, at that time I shall make my decision as to whether I'm excited or underwhelmed. Now, to go against everything I've just said, roll on tomorrow and some good news.
