The way this has turned out with Still it does feel like that if he had come and did well he would be looking for his next move in the summer!
Beale made zero sense, he was still brung in. Nothing at all would surprise me with the club currently.
Beale made a lot more sense than this guy. Championship experience, Rangers experience. EPL experience as an assistant. Reputation as a great player developer Don’t get me wrong, not for one second suggesting Beale made sense as he obviously didn’t. But this guy is a whole level below in terms of sense
FWIW I’d buy the “nothing surprises me with this club” logic if we hadn’t very openly been trying to bring Will Still in. The club are very evidently aiming higher.
it’d surprise me. Makes no sense to be going after somebody like Still and then dropping down to this geezer
Maybe this isn't our model - if there is an ambitious Championship club, who wants to work in the right way, to be open and honest about things, and to really try to push to get somewhere
Do you know what our process is at the minute, who we've had talks with, who is on our wanted list, how far down the line we are with those talks, or are you just going off Internet rumours. Smug has stated he's happy to see the process out and wait and see who we actually appoint before making judgement which is all we can really do. However so many are judging and commenting on Internet rumours as if they are fact. Although some are only picking up on the negative rumours
So can someone please confirm that what I think is right. Still is going to Lens to replace someone who is going to Nice, that’s replacing Farioli, who’s going to Ajax. Is this the same fella we were linked with last summer to replace Mogga that started all the upheaval?.
I think it’s a must personally. Otherwise Doddsy will be the one planning pre-season (if he hasn’t already)
Also that Echo story saying Maric is being offered a deal at Bayern… that’s not new news. Wilson is just writing a story about other people’s stories. Modern day journalism. The Echo don’t have a clue what’s going on at Sunderland. We supposed to believe they have the inside scoop at Bayern?
Well that's an opinion I never thought I'd hear from you ... ... my opinion is that Still was our priority and he may become our next manager.
I think they have ballsed it up but it’s going to take a lot more than Nixon saying a random Scottish manager is in the hunt to make me think we are in desperation mode. For all we know there’s 10 other Rene Maric types in a queue. Put it this way, at 10pm last night nobody had even considered Stephen Robinson might be a candidate. There’s more or less infinite options that we might not have heard about yet.
