Guest chopey Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Sunderland fans are so sick of football right now but this time last year even though I knew we were going down I wasnt that bothered because I knew there was a good chance we would have Rafa in the Championship, the only bad point for this season is Ashleys refusal to sanction a January transfer to seal our promotion earlier than it will be.

Dave Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39558481 The BBC understands that Moyes was also involved in an angry exchange involving another female BBC reporter in December 2012. Moyes, the manager of Everton at the time, is believed to have been unhappy with Jacqui Oatley's questions concerning an on-field incident missed by the referee, involving Marouane Fellaini. The then Everton midfielder headbutted Stoke's Ryan Shawcross and was subsequently banned for three matches by the FA for violent conduct. After asking Moyes on-camera about the matter Oatley then posed two follow-up questions about the incident and the impact of losing Fellaini for a number of games due to a potential ban. Moyes, looking irritated, replied: "Bad enough asking me about the first one never mind asking me another one. I've not seen the other stuff. "It's down to the FA. I've answered your question and you've come back with another one." The interview then ended but Moyes is understood to have angrily confronted Oatley over her questions off-camera, directing expletive-laden remarks towards her. The exchange between Moyes and Oatley was not sexist in nature and it is believed there was no reference to the reporter's gender. Oatley is believed to have complained to Everton's head of communications, who has since left the club, but allegedly failed to receive a call or letter in response.

Dave Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/39548793 Moyes has been very negative about the club's situation too, which is very unlike him. Right from the start, I got the sense he was unhappy with his situation. The interview he gave after his side's defeat by Middlesbrough in August where he told fans to "expect a relegation battle" suggested to me that there was something else on the agenda, and maybe he was not getting the transfer funds he had been promised. You could argue that Moyes was just being realistic, but he has not really done much to win the fans over with anything he has said, and that is the biggest difference between his situation and Rafael Benitez's at Newcastle when they went down last year. There was a real positivity about Benitez when he was appointed in March 2016 and, at the end of the season, the fans were right behind him, saying the club had to persuade him to stay. They did, and they are reaping the rewards now. I don't think there is anything like the same feeling towards Moyes on Wearside as there was towards Benitez on Tyneside. When I listen to 606 on BBC Radio 5 live and hear Sunderland fans ringing in, there is no affection towards Moyes. When I've gone to Black Cats games this season, I've not got the impression their supporters have any real confidence in him either. Yeah, that's definitely the biggest difference.

Sir Toon Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 To think, Ranieri is crying out for a job in England and would be the closest theyd get to a messiah to cling on to. Hardly think about these now anyway, never mind their obvious struggle for mid table next year in the Sky Bet league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 11hrs without a goal, need 5 victories from their last 7 games, and some people still think they'll manage it? More likely to lose all all 7 I'd say. They've got a good run in bar Arsenal. 5 winnable games and if Chelsea are on holiday for the last game a possible free 3pts like they had last season with Everton. when you're bottom having won 5 from 30 and not scored in 7 games and only scored in 1 from last 10 there's no such thing as winnable games. these other teams they are playing will look at them and see it as a winnable game for them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 The only reason Moyes is still in a job is because they cant pay to get rid of him Will be very interesting if he hasn't got any sort of relegation clauses in his contract. He could dig his heels in and stay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could dig his heels in and stay. He's unlikely to get another high paid gig after three awful failures in a row...even for the merry go round that's a tough ask. He'll stay until he gets his payoff as that'll be him off to retirement unless Scotland comes calling. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp40 Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 just had a quick look, I think to get out the bottom 3 they need to win all their games til they play Hull (6 May). they need Hull to lose all their games before this- then they need to beat Hull in that game, thats a massive ask that like.

madras Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Is their financial situation as bad as it's being made out ? Yes and No. Like ours (but a bit worse) it depends on the bloke at the top being prepared to bankroll things. The worry they have is that Short will just decide to cut his losses and take administration or sell to a Venky, alternatively he finds a buyer who wnats to do well by the club, However it seems they are few and far between compared to the fly-by-nighters.

Is the thinking then, that if Short stays as he can't find a buyer and he's not prepared to bank roll them. They're going to have to sell a lot of players and have no real chance of bouncing back straight away, as it'll be that bad for them they'll have to cut costs massively.

Doctor Zaius Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 The whole Sunderland getting relegated is bitter sweet for me. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to see them utterly crumble, but given that they've handed us some absolute pastings in recent years, I just can't celebrate it as much.
