You're talking about a guy who's won nothing in his career, been booed at pretty much all of his recent clubs and there's a line of cunts on SSN and the rest falling over themselves to call him a great, successful manager.

I read it as a hot streak overall, not specifically against Norwich. I like Mitrovic a lot but he's contributed virtually nothing this season, obviously.

It's like when Beardsley said we'd been a great run under Pardew when we'd drawn twice and lost three times in the last five.

He wasnt on decent cash with us was he? He was the lowest paid manager in the league with a salary apparently heavily incentivised on operating profit - ie player sales.

I hate to say it but so do we, unless you mean purely in a Championship context.

I had it on at 7.30ish, one of them (Paul Walsh) said he'd had a 'brilliantly successful managerial career'.

Hmm. Pulis or Pardew, that. Pardew's on decent money at Palace though, no? Works for when he was here.

Hmm. Pulis or Pardew, that.

Didn't he have an account in the British Virgin Islands in his dog's name or somat?

Tell me that's not real.

Howe or Hoddle if it has to be an English manager. It shouldn't be, though. Frankly it can't be, if we want to get somewhere.

Fucking Steve Bruce, man. McClaren, Hodgson, Allardyce and Bruce/Southgate 4 of our last 5 managers. Imagine that? And people would still try to assign blame to the 'bottle of the players' and other such tripe.

I think he always saw Sunderland as a short-term thing, like. The amount of times I'd see him driving around down here (his house is 10 mins from mine) in mid-week suggested he spent next to no time on Wearside.

That is pretty weird.

Yes.

I'll say one thing for him, like. The bloke can dance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1d7Z1SZtjeQ

The fact that this is seen as one of the better chants is fucking hilarious, like.

That moment with Flores was undoubtedly Allardyce's best moment, mind. Flores waiting for players to run over and stand between him and Allardyce before walking on the spot 'towards' him was a fucking thing of beauty.

Wow. Deserve all they fucking get for hiring managers of that standard. Should have been Ancelotti's job the second Madrid pulled the trigger. And this, 100%.

He has a rape dungeon now.

Autumn's his time of the season, like. Right before the transfer window and all those selling-based contractual incentives.

I agree there's nothing outstanding about him other than his attitude, but he's been first choice LB for less than a year, in truth.

You're so simple, like.

Absolutely shite is a bit unfair.
