Phil Neville was exactly the sort of player that I've imagined playing for Sunderland at some point for a reason I can't really put my finger on, so it wouldn't surprise me if he became involved with them either as a coach or manager.

Well, ex-Everton/Man Utd so that increases the chances; add to the mix experience of being in the shadow of a more successive neighbour brother and he sounds a perfect match. [whoops...just read subsequent posts]

Grayson was sacked 17 minutes after the final whistle (BBC Sport). Quote from Bolton manager (Phil Parkinson) made me laugh, for some reason: " You normally go for a drink in the office. I will probably just get on the coach and give him a call later in the week."

I don't want it to be Reid. Despite his mackem connections i've always thought he seems like a good bloke, he used to take the "monkeys heed" chants in good humour and didn't feel the need to have digs in the press or whatever.  It'd be a shame to see him get dragged into their mess i think. 

 

Sewpa Kev would be fantastic.  He'd bring some of their crowd back initially but almost certainly end up failing miserably and being as unpoular as Grayson.  That would be beautiful ?

 

Hopefully it's not Keane.  I quite enjoy his blunt, obnoxious punditry he's mint.  One of the few pundits actually worth listening to.

 

Pardew would be hilarious!  Their reaction would be absolutely class and he would more than likely f*** them up even more in the long-term.

 

***Edit***

I just thought, if there's one man who's guaranteed to fail to inspire their players, infuriate their fans and also wouldn't think twice about taking the job, it's Steve Mclaren!  Please make it happen!

Remember lads whoever they get will be instantly compared to Rafa, they'll all mention how Rafa took us down, spent s*** loads of money and then come to the conclusion that their new manager is better than Rafa.

Who would actually go there ? No money, a poor squad and come January the members of the squad that are worth a few beans will be sold, I think they need some sort of gimp that loves punishment and a few quid.

He said it in the summer. No fucker wants to go to the smb' and that's why they got Grayson in the first place. Laugh a minute reading some of the thick fucks on there talking about transfer wedges to entice managers when they haven't got a pot to piss in.

Even if they had turned around a few more games, imagine watching half of your home games for six years and being 0-1 at least at some point in them. :lol:

I think whoever it is will get 10 months at least.

 

They will come in now, get a reaction, win a few games and pull us up the table, they will get decent backing (compared to Championship sides) in Jan and wheel and deal, they will solidify us in mid-table and be seen as a relative success.

They will be given a summer transfer window with decent backing again and then 10 games in to next season.

 

If they get off to a good start next season then the momentum will take us to challenge for promotion and he will be here until at least 2020.

 

If he gets off to a bad start next season then he will be gone by November.

 

I think any manager will accept those odds.

This is a very attractive job and will be sought after

 

:lol:

45 times we've been at 0-1 in the same period...not much better really.
