We have fucked up the appointment process, absolutely. But in terms of acceding to Keane’s demands without question, that’s surely a different matter as no one knows what they were so how do we know the club have fucked up by not appointing him?

Who cares about uplifting! The results will do that if he’s anything like the manager who everyone is saying is better than McCann. Between an exciting personality who will lose 4 on the trot and a dull personality who will win us 5 on the trot I know who I’d have.

I look forward to revising this in 18 months when we are still mired in the lower leagues and Neil hasn’t done anything to change a horrific club that will rot until it falls apart.
I know i don’t hence I’m not in a position to have a pop at the club as I don’t know what Keane’s terms were.
Least he wants the job, and doesnt wanna be sat on his arse with Micah Richards
Donnybrook
Midfield
Have them both like when we had wilko and the note book boy

Quite the hissy fit this like.
They are raging blaming everyone, fellow fans for "settling for no marks", the club, the owner, speakman, when will they realise, their blue eyed boy turned us down......................
He didn't want it that much and clearly isn't desperate to get into management

Alex Neil seems quite a strong character, I think he'd do ok here. The fact that the fans at his ex clubs seem to have positive things to say about him is a good sign. I wouldn't mind this appointment, pretty decent in the circumstances.

He simply doesn't have the charisma or presence that Keane has. Keane would galvanise the club and fans, Neil strikes me as another Grayson, career on a downward trajectory.

Do you, hand on heart, think he will be?
It’s such an obvious chuckle brothers choice, coming on the back of Methen showing up at the match, but people seem to have forgiven them.

Can I ask everyone who has a downer on Alex Neil to please explain what it is about his CV that means you are so sure he will fail?
I mean it’s a mark of a Sunderland supporter that they are far more likely to believe someone will fail than succeed.
