Forget signings coming in ready to play, nobody is coming in if we hav'nt got a manager.

Was this in the offing has a row being going on behind the scenes, what about salary, signings etc is going on,... this is not the way to run whelk stall

Nobody Club or Neil comes out of this with credit!

Speakman has to go for me. Twice he has left us in the lurch due to his piss poor planning which is one of the main roles of his job.

Recruitment is in place with scouting systems and a head of recruitment who imo has done well with the players we have brought in. AN was backed in the window and it's simply incompetence from the DOF that has put us in this mess.

That's some serious mental gymnastics to say "apart from all the good stuff, it's clearly speakmans fault that Neil has decided to leave at the drop of a hat"

I've clearly stated that he isn't involved in the recruitment. We have a head of recruitment and scouting team in place now and was backed financially by KLD, nothing to do with Speakman.

You mean like the end of the January window?

I wouldn't be surprised if Stoke back Neil with money and he comes back to raid us for a couple of players.

I don't think Speakman would be able to stay in a job then. We'd make it untenable for him.

In all walks of business some people will just leave you in the lurch and jump ship for a better wage.

No one knows the full facts but we have one side ravenous for speakman and the board to resign… Why, we don’t know what has gone on yet.

The facts are Neil looks to have gone, he’s left the day before a big game and at a pivotal stage in the season. Unless speakman has bullied the man and suggested his mam is on the wrong side of overweight id say he owed us a lot more than that.

Looks worse and worse from Neil by the minute. Leaning towards siding with the club atm

Really? What brings you to that conclusion? He hasn’t travel to stoke. The club have to allow stoke to tak to him contractually. If he turns them down and stays, what precisely has he done wrong to give him “no way back”. He’s still in Sunderland at the minute

if he was committed he would have turned the approach down. showing interest indicates he's not happy here .
