Ketsbaia Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I'm gutted tbh. The new manager can't do worse..... right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Geordie Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I can't see Pardew going there - club is in too much of a mess. Probably a dream team of Monkey's Heed and Rat Boy. Mind, they will only begin to sort themselves out when Short sells up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackandWhite Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Can understand Monk’s frustration. It was a nailed on 3 points Sunday. Now they might have a new manager buzz that could rob them a point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Phil Neville's latest quote "All the previous managers have got vast experience and they have all had the same problems. It needs somebody to go in there, grab those young players, be a little bit aggressive and give them something. The place needs lifting. There is no positivity. I think it is an attractive proposition." Wouldn’t possibly be trying to talk his brother or friend (Giggs) into the job would he? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Turns out this is actually Shorts old "Sack the manager just before the derby" trick and nothing else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Can't even imagine who they can get as manager at this point which can only be a good thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
xLiaaamx Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 They should go for a player-manager. I know just the guy. http://i4.thejournal.co.uk/incoming/article6299009.ece/ALTERNATES/s615/jack-colback.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 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.

Guest firetotheworks Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Could definitely be that like. Surprising that he wasn't among the ex-Man United/Everton players that went there when they were finished. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdckelly Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 who the hell can they convince to take on that job? No money for players, no way to raise money by selling players as everyone knows they're shit and squad morale can't possibly be worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

nufc4eva Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Hope it's Peter Reid, they fucking love him and he's such a dinosaur, would likely finish them off [emoji3] Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 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."

Away Day Gadgie Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 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! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 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.

Guest chopey Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 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.
