I've gone Stoke just ahead of Swansea I think. If Ellis is true to his word, he can;t sack his "first choice the last 5 times"
Swansea for me. Was a bit of a strange appointment in the first place and rumours saying he's lost the support of the board is never good news.
Not a club but i think Allardyce may beat everyone to that award this season, the spanner! Not sure who it'll be at club level, Hughes will be fine at Stoke, he's a good manager with a good team just had a bad start. Those 2 prats at West Ham will keep Bilic I think, Swansea is an interesting one though...
Swansea for me, then if the talk is right its out of the frying pan and into the fire in the guise of Steve Bruce, I've heard of him somewhere before
If we beat WBA this weekend (what the hell am I saying) then goodbye Pulis, he has been on the brink for a while now.
Sadly I think Moyes is on the edge...if we lose to West Brom by the recently normal 3 goals at home again the message is clear ..there's something badly wrong and it isn't just about inadequate players in the squad. A good manager makes the best of what he's got by getting them motivated and organized, and moyes has better than Allardyce had last year. Thank heavens I'm a sunderland supporter and hardened to these situations.
Hughes and Bilic have plenty of goodwill in the tank so it would take another handful of games going badly before they're in serious risk. WBA - not as clear as people are suggesting. There's unrest but Berahino was kept and is now playing again, they've got 8 points from 6 games and that's a decent start. Swansea or Sunderland.
WHU and Bilic, 56,000 there every home game that is pressure although very bad designed stadium, and hopefully we win there in 2 weeks time. What about Karanka ? the Boro boss looks out of his depth, Swansea are back to the way they were without Monk.
News today is that the Swansea chairman has had initial talks with Bill Bradley. So it's probably going to be there. But time is running out at SAFC - if we lose this w.e., that's one point from 7 games - projecting forward, that's between 5 and 7 points for the season! I'm sure it won't stay that way - we'll surely pick up a surprise couple of points somewhere. But if Big Sam becomes available, a lot of people would be glad to have him back. I wouldn't push it yet, but it's certainly Question Time here. Edit : Bob Bradley, ex-U.S.A.
