there’s no reason to think Jansen was first choice and walked away. He might be no longer in contention because we’ve chosen somebody else
This news has absolutely no impact on my thoughts on the administration. I'm not sure why we would use it to condemn them.
We’re doing our due diligence, every other club who’s managed to hire their preferred candidate is doing it wrong and we’re doing right by settling for our 5th choice etc etc,
Explain to me why the club shouldn't be defended if you don't mind. I thought bring a supporter is that you trust the club and support them through thick and thin and whether you agree with the decisions they make
Perhaps I didn't make myself clear. I said How many will still defend them now. Yes, I've finally gotten to the just laughing at it stage.
Surely it also entails criticising and questioning when necessary? Not just blind support. Anyone and everyone, within reason, connected to the club gets my full backing constantly but it doesn't mean I don't get to question their decision making.
So it's either Rosenior or somebody totally left field imo. After KLD's statement on Friday I think we'll know the man by tonight
So a few things … I said before it won’t be until the back end of next week when we announce the new manager. I think if it is Rosenior it’ll be a decent appointment. Like I said on here a couple of days ago the job he did at derby (as the assistant) was very good and under appreciated. Also I find Sunderland Twitter so frustrating. People complaining it’s not Jensen … that’s what happens when you convince yourself it’s nailed on to be one person. We have no idea who it’ll be. Best of waiting to see who is announced. I don’t think we’ll be close to an relegation battle like some people are inferring
Ffs this is the issue … people aren’t happy that it’s not Jensen instead of getting behind whoever it is !!
Its quite telling Jansen has talked to plenty of clubs by now, and none have worked out sofar. Must be a reason for that. Ah well, hope you guys find yourself a good manager. Good luck for the season
Well it sort of has to anyway. The owner literally stated the appointment is imminent,whoever that may be and despite any journalist reports. So we should take the owner at his word and expect there’s a new man in place tomorrow(I think a few days is reasonable for a statement of ‘imminent ’) , if not he’s left himself open for absolute pelters imo and will have made himself look ridiculous.
How do you know we are settling for our 5th choice? Maybe with this news we are getting our 1st choice
