New Head Coach

To be honest Smug has hinted at this for a good week or so

 

That's down to interpretation.

He's just doing a daily count to get clicks

 

Hinted at what? and how?

 

I'd argue that his daily count tweets are better than 90% of his articles though

 

One Million..... ?

 

The QPR bloke coming in well that’s what I’ve picked up from some of his posts

 

Just a thought I have no idea of his contract at QPR but couldn’t the £900k be for the remainder of it? Doesn’t mean QPR have to accept it

 

I'd definitely take Cifuentes like

 

As per my earlier post,

https://www.sunderlandafc.news/tran...s-sunderland-confirm-first-transfer-decision/

This falls into my theory Speakman is toast. My original thoughts were KLD replaced Speakman in the hunt for the new coach, relieving Speakman of his duties. Speakman was downgraded to review the u21 squad, this article backs up this role. There are no quotes on coach recruitment or first team recruitment.

I believe Speakman will be removed in August/September after a handover to the new DoF. Removing him at the end of the last season would have been seen as a sign of weakness, the club being rudderless etc.

We shall see.

 

The Stewart money (except the promotion add on) is long gone. That was basically what covered last summers signings

 

The £9m loss?

 

My personal opinion I think SAFC are trying to secure the services of Cifuentes or Maric...time will tell...we need a breakthrough soon though..

 

How when we sold him at the end of the window and bought no one after

 

@Prehab26 have you heard anything regarding Le Bris. That seems to be going around from a couple people. I’m hoping for Marti personally

 

Just looks like a bog standard article to me with nothing else to read into but who knows.

 

Just know there was a big meeting Monday and the expectation from that was it was down to 1 instead of 2. Similar to Scout.

That's why I said on Sunday that there should be more news in next 24 hours. Surprised nothing else has come out since this period.

Again though, every day that passes, I feel we are losing opportunities to improve.

 

Thank you mate hope it’s all sorted soon

 

The club has managed to look utterly rudderless anyway

 

That’s from the year before. Stewart sale and most of last summers business isn’t out till next year in accountancy terms

 

Not necessarily how it works, we could have been planning on that sale all summer but spent the money on outgoings first. That fee then replaced it. We also spent a bit in January and a bit sacking two managers
