That last paragraph can also be said for Defoe as well. We seem to have a weird obsession rehiring players and managers from the past. Are other clubs like this?

Tbf other clubs are either at our level and don’t have the likes of Keane and Defoe to hark back to or are currently not languishing in L1 and can get current quality players and coaches.

It’s like that lad who threw away his hard drive full of bit coin. Canny metaphor for the position we are in actually. Sunderland fans wandering an endless scrap heap searching for Keane, we can find an endless supply of any old shit but never Keane. This club man, wanna cry

Ah silly me being a season out.

So from 7th how much did he improve them and where did they finish in their following seasons?

Higher or lower?

I completely understand the frustration with the way the club have handled the last few weeks.
Some people have got a cheek calling the club incompetent when they aren’t even capable of gathering basic facts before mashing the fuck out of their keyboards in anger though.

I read about that fella, I think I’d top myself!
Funnily enough I’ve just watched a vid on YT of a famous US hacker retrieving a password from a bloke’s Bitcoin wallet thing so he could access 2 million dollars! Tense stuff!

Did he not get sacked from Preston for taking them from near play offs to near bottom on his last job?

Consistently had to sell players and only had about £2m to spend. I think mid table in the championship is going pretty well for a club like Preston. Didn’t set the world alight but far from an easy job. Finished above Johnson a few times who had about £40m to spend in the same period.
