Defoe gives his two bob on our search for a manager and he mentions old saggy chops among others. Could you imagine him as our manager!!! http://www.fourfourtwo.com/news/defoe-highlights-quartet-potential-advocaat-replacements? Apologies if this has already been covered here.
I'm sure QPR fans would disagree. Expect Wearside Pride along any minute to tell everybody they're idiots again and that 'Arry is better than Fergie.
QPR apart, think he did a very reasonable job wherever he went, he was only a whisker off the England job as well, if it hadn,t been for the dodgy brown paper bag dealings (alleged) it would have been him
No, no and no. He spunks his club's money up the wall, he's too old and he lives on the South Coast. NO!
Shows the players know **** all as well. We're playing this very quiet. Got a feeling we're bringing someone in off the continent.
Didn't he bankrupt Bournmouth, Portsmouth & Southampton? Wouldn't want the old **** anywhere near Sunderland.
He won't come this far North, so he is irrelevant. He was offered the Leicester job a while back, and he declined that.
He (Defoe) also says "You want to be in a position, especially in the second half of the season, where you can enjoy your football and think about finishing somewhere where the club has never finished before." I know it was a long time ago, but does he know our history? Even if he's talking about the Premiership, are we really likely to be looking to finish higher than 7th?
To be fair he doesn't say anything about it being higher than anywhere we've finished before. Could be talking about 8th...
Defoe's a one-in-three games striker. Before he opens his mouth again, he needs to tell me how he fiddled a place over Bent in 2010. Just shut it, Jermaine, and leave it to Congerton, Advocaat and Short to sort out.
Am working on a job this weekend with someone ITK. I will try and take him out for a beer to get some info. He is a personal friend of Shorts and has been general manager of 2 other big clubs.
He would not come this far north now, I could see him going to Bournemouth if Eddie Howe left, he would rinse the club dry too
His managerial career spans Bournemouth, West Ham, Portsmouth, Southampton, Spurs and QPR! Correct me if I wrong but, in order on the list above, after he left... Administration, severe financial difficulty, administration, administration, massive debt funded by huge player sales, right in the **** financially? Tells me everything I need to know. If redknapp comes here I will find it very difficult not to turn my back on the club. I ****ing hate him!
For the good of football, I think the safest bet is for somebody to take him out back and shoot him, he's had his day now, it really is the best option... put him down like a stray dog.
Aye, you can't polish a turd. You can roll it in glitter or even gold dust but it's still a steaming, stinking pile of ****.
