Dick Advocaat's Sunderland future in doubt
Sunderland boss Dick Advocaat says he has made a decision on his future, but refused to confirm whether he will be in charge of the team for their next game against West Brom on 17 October.

Reports on Saturday suggested he would quit, having joined the team in March.

"I've made a decision," he said after the draw with West Ham, on Saturday.

Advocaat won't confirm Sunderland future

Earlier, he said: "Today I am the manager, what will happen in next days, weeks and months, I cannot say."

Asked if he will be manager for the next game after the international break, he added: "I cannot say that. The newspapers must have something to write otherwise there is nothing in the newspapers."

Advocaat, 68, was appointed in March with the club one point above the relegation zone.

He guided them to Premier League safety and was due to leave the club, only to change his mind and sign a one-year deal.

However, Saturday's 2-2 draw with West Ham left Sunderland without a win in eight games and leaves them five points from safety second bottom of the Premier League.

"Huge test for Jose now. No disputing he is one of the great managers but most of it has been achieved with huge financial backing. Now he has to manage his way out and not spend his way out. Can he do it ? Not so sure this time."

Chelski "fans" will be deserting them in droves amd heading to Manchester for some more glory hunting methinks <laugh> <laugh> <laugh>
 
Doesn't matter how good you are, if you can't admit that we all fail at times, people will only remember you as a whiner, Jose.
We all stuff up at times but it never ceases to amaze me that some people just can't bring themselves to admit as such .............. to me, that is a real indication as to what type of person you are.

Everything else pales into insignificance.

My heart bleed for u Jose

Someone should point out to him that's what happens when you encourage your players to cheat by diving and it gets noticed. The refs (in their own arrogance) don't like to be mugged off. Mean while the rest of us are sitting back and laughing at them.
