Which can only realistically happen once you're in it. To get into the PL,a generous input of serious cash also comes with a generous input of serious contract expenditure,which can be extremely destructive in the event of things not going to plan on the pitch. In my opinion,we have the right idea. Acquire young talent on longer contracts to mix with that coming through from the Academy,and develop them into a winning side. If we receive an offer or two which we can't refuse,then we replenish the coffers and ensure we have replacements ready to step in. In that event,you could say the recruitment people,and the DoF,have done their job well...... we currently have 3 or 4 who could well be the subject of offers,and we wait to see the recruitment targets. As and when promotion is achieved,the players are rewarded and the club has the new found financial muscle to improve the squad as necessary. In my opinion,that's what we're trying to do..the so called Model. The problem we,as fans have,is that it can take time. The Second Division is full of clubs with exactly the same ambition,hampered by the comparative wealth of the clubs coming down and,in some cases,by the momentum of those coming up. Our collective patience has been worn thin over the last 6 months,but,if our leaders get things right,next season presents us with more opportunity. Hoping for a pleasing imminent announcement!
Everyone is jumpy! If only someone would say what imminent means,we could relax a bit.....or....get even more jumpy!!
Just too early for me to remember that one. I do remember Paul Cannell who played for the Mags. Boy, did we have fun with that name!
Just had a look on oddschecker for a laugh and Maric isn’t even listed anymore. Will is Still the massive odds on favourite. But we all know it means nowt…I’m just bored
https://sports.williamhill.com/bett...OB_MG267191/Next-Permanent-Sunderland-Manager William Hills odds for anyone interested. Still was 11/4 this morning so people have clearly backed it.
We used to love a Friday announcement, really hope theres something today Ciders are in the fridge so hoping they are getting cracked open to welcome our new manager
I’m hoping news drops on my drive home, make the a1 traffic bareable, celebratory cans are chilling in anticipation though!
sorry to burst everbodies bubble but cant see it being today. Even when Beale was announced there was a 48 hour or so period of fury between it leaking and it happening.
I feel certain it isn't Maric. Not sure why. Too many people saying he isn't in the running. Feels like a weird leak to come out and not be true.
That Training Ground Guru guy went out of his way to say its not him as well. He had no reason to lie or even get involved.
They also had the BCB debacle to handle in the same period so not sure it's like for like on timings.
