New Head Coach

[Dunder Mifflin]

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

Are we any closer to what you heard the other day?

 

[TopCat.]

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.

Stop whining, you fanny

Yep, i heard the talks were very positive and just a few minor things to sort out

Im not getting ahead of myself tho as i was told the same with Still

That Copley fella is a tedious twat with his daily tweet of how many days it has been

He gets zero Intel so relies on this place for info. The devil finds work for idle hands...

Appreciate the update, here’s hoping we’re almost at the end of the most draining 7 weeks of close season ever

Will the majority of people be happy? Obviously not everyone will be, it’s the way it goes.

Does anyone have an info/links about the Cifuentes 900k buy out I've seen mentioned on here, because that is contradicting my source.

Nixon said it's a six figure fee

Okay, might as well just say what I've been told, paraphrasing:

Negotiations are way beyond 900k and QPR are looking for a massive windfall under the guise this derails their season, a tribunal may see it that way.

I've never heard of a manager or coach going to a tribunal.

Didn't realise that was a thing

I was surprised at the £900k figure as in the early days I’d seen £450k mentioned, more than £900k seems excessively high for a. Championship manager.

Is Speakman still talking about new coach and first team affairs? I've got a suspicious he's been moved aside to u21s

Someone leaving Apple for Microsoft can be put up to tribunal if the contracts are set up a certain way.

Usually manager compensation is the value of the remaining contract. However there are exceptions, such as when Big Sam left us for England, the negotiations went on a while if I remember rightly.

Example, 1 year left at 5k a week = £260,000.

5 years left at 20k a week = £5.2m
