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
<laugh>
 
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 :D

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

Luke Elsner is going from Le Havre to Reims, and Digard is going to Le Havre.

Spot on though, proper merry-go-round...which has shafted us.

It's just so quiet, it's been a never-ending cycle of no news and journalists tweeting out what number day it is without a head coach, it feels like purgatory <laugh>
 
In all my years watching and talking about Sunderland, I have never known a shambles like this.
I ain't a whining fanny or nowt, but this is a clueless attempt to run a massive football club.
We need a positive owner and a sensible DOF who can communicate with the fan base.
If these 2 tomorrow are not the answer we will look sackless.
It's no good saying we have kept the new coach under wraps, cos no one believes the **** KS spouts.

I’m done with the excuses now. We’ve seen other teams lose their manager and already someone is installed.

They didn’t use the excuses that our supporters keep giving. ‘Things change in football’ - ‘Heads being turned’ - ‘out of our control’

It’s all bullshit. You’re a businessman, Bob. You know fine well a good businessman closes the deal and gets it over the line. No excuses. Other clubs are doing it. We aren’t.

I knew when we were a bigger shambles, when we were in L1 with SD n CM in charge - they would have ran us out of business

KS n KLD have no doubt made mistakes but all very fixable. Get the right manager in, have a good transfer window and apologise for how long its taken (some wont need an apology and will be fine if they get the right man) - theyll be praised again by most

It's hysterics to compare our current predicament with the League One era. People have short memories.

This is terrible, no doubt about it but it was worse under those muppets in League One. Donald and Methven, both scumbags.
