    Regis is a fantastic name. I feel like it belongs to a character in a medieval times set tragedy rather than a 21st century Sunderland manager.

    "And as Regis looked upon the broken bodies of his slaughtered mother and father, he pieced together the fragments of his shattered childhood and the shape they took as a whole was revenge."

    Not my best work but one for the back pocket if I go through a Dumas phase.

    Right haway, let's get some more players in and get cracking. Massive opportunity to improve this summer and we need to get it right. Hopefully the wheels are already turning on more signings.

    He’s already talking about being excited to help Patterson progress.

    It’s a good move imo.

    Exactly. People clamouring for signing some experience,then,when we do,snorting like stuck pigs.

    I think people would like players in the middle somewhere.

    That being said, it's a backup keeper. People moaning about it are just moaning for the sake of it in this case.

    It would be nice to sign a few along the lines of Roberts and Stewart this summer though.

    I agree, tell them how to play, and if they dont do it kick them up the arse. I suppose he could just try not talking to them?

    Can we now go back to slagging off the transfer policy?

    All jokes aside, let's hope he can get a tune out of Ekwah, Ba and the other French lads.

    This is just the narrative that the club have asked local journos to put out. That's fine but to say we have waited for this manager for 3 weeks is not true. If that's the case why was Ronenior spoken too twice ?

    I am happy it's coming to a conclusion and we absolutely have to back him. But let's not always swallow the press narrative control Safc play out. We have seen this all before with Pritchard and Still deals.

    Fingers crossed this one works out.

    Quite like the Breton flavour of his tracky top there.
