Give him a chance. Vincent Kompany relegated with Burnley and now has a job with Bayern Munich.

This……any proper Sunderland fan will give him the chance to show he can be ( and therefore us) successful.
He will of course need help by targeted recruitment which may come about . The experienced goalkeeper just confirmed is a good start. Again don’t trot out the negative cliches
1. We are a selling club ( we are not)
2. We will buy only unproven and injury prone players…. We have been guilty of this in the past but the club has this transfer window to show that lesson have been learnt .
A final point on transfers…. More than any other season transfer activity will squeezed into the last week as Premier Clubs struggle with FFP and unload players. This will frustrate fans who want the signings we need yesterday.

Took over from a manager who got them promoted and two 16th place finishes, a solid ground to build on. First few months started well with 32 points after 19 games, winning 9. Last 19 picked up 23 with 6 wins, with only 5 teams picking up less points in that period. Sold two main players and a couple of others before his second season, reinvested half and got relegated after a really poor season on 29 points with 7 wins out 34. They have then moved to sack him for someone else to rebuild for promotion. I really hope it works out and that he is the manger of his first few months, but there is little to be enthralled by it especially with the mess they have made for themselves since beales reign

Hope I’m wrong but underwhelming and sounds like could be Beale Mk II.
