New Head Coach

I’d like to see Phillips get a job in league 1 and make a success of it before we bring him here.

 

Well after being missing for over a year (apart from the odd visit)
My Black Cat "Sunny" was fetched home yesterday.
So I'll take it as a sign something imminent is about to happen








Well it looks just like him anyway

 

I could have got Shields promoted on the budget they had

 

Oh no, it's going to be Paul Ince isn't it?

 

Not a chance, hopefully.

 

Tidied

 

Based. Top-6 here we come.

 

@CasseJosue
Excluded FM: Didier Digard will become the new coach of Ciel et Marine ⏳ To succeed Luka Elsner, about to join Stade de Reims, Le Havre has decided to bet on Didier Digard @footmercato

 

He was likely never in the running, but I am a bit disappointed in that, after I did a bit of a dive into his record I liked what I saw.

Anyway, the frontrunner is Cifuentes and the hold up is the fee, which QPR are demanding way in excess of the £900,000 I've seen quoted on here, the delay is leaning in their favour as well, this will seriously mess up their planned season and they want to be well compensated for it.

 

I wasn’t suggesting we give him the keys to the city, just to give him a chance up to Xmas. Some on here are enthusiastic about foreign coaches who have never worked in the Championship but are very wary about one of our own. Okay, I admit it is a bridge too far… BUT, If Phillips does come good in the fairly near future, as a penance I request everyone on here who doesn’t want him to donate £5 to a charity. .

 

what if we have someone signed, but they forgot to announce it or
waiting for preseason to start OR due to some contracting malarkey they cant be annouced til after 30th of June

 

The one that got away

 

Looks the spitting double to me mate

 

If he can do a good job at a league club I think he comes into contention purely because of what he did in his playing career, that said, non-league and Sunderland are worlds apart, it would be malpractice to hire a non-league coach.

 

BREAKING FAKE NEWS:

Graham Potter has turned down the chance of managing Leicester and has opted for the magnificent club that is Sunderland AFC.

More to follow....

 

After all this shìt show I'd be happy to give him a try. With Julio as assistant.

 

Its amazing how Farioli has come back to haunt us.

Farioli goes to Ajax and frees up the role Nice

Lens manager goes to Nice

Still leaves Reims and goes to Lens

Digard goes to Reims


All would have been well if we'd just appointed Farioli in the first place

But anyway, to complete the circle we need to appoint the old Ajax manager. Which is *checks notes* John van 't Schip

 

If John can turn a van into a ship he'll dee for me

 

Just a shame he's not called John van't magic carpet

 

I’d really rather we didn’t. He wasn’t very good.
