If Keane is getting a 2 and a half year deal like one lad suggested earlier then I think speakman will be gone soon after. Really can't see Keane effectively reporting to a glorified academy manager with a spreadsheet fetish. We do need to control transfers etc much better than we did under short, but we also need out of this f***ing league. And if we need to have a style of play that stays consistent when coaches leave, I think I'd rather it was a hard working, take no shit keano type of side than whatever Johnson was putting together

I agree. Im old school. If Sunderland has a football club has any defining identity its that we (used to) have teams that fitted in with the fanbase. Hard working, enthusiastic and at time aggressive and forthright. I don't want us to be 80s Wimbledon but i DO want us to have players who leave everything out there. I want energy and verve coupled with a winning attitude. It'd help if they could play a bit.

Every time I ever walked on the pitch I could hear my dads voice "Get stuck in youngun". This current teams weakness and lack of resolve really really grates on me.

I used to be one of those that said there are no ITKs and I wasn’t until very recently but info does get leaked out if you have a close link.

Sayin Keane might be appointed doesnt make you ITK at all

Its absolutely all over every single newspaper

How you can claim with a straight face you are bringing anything to the table

being ITK is telling people something they dont know

No I’ve said it’s already a done deal and it may be announced tomorrow. Also that he will be at Wimbledon but as a spectator not taking charge.
