I was horrified when he was first mentioned.
Having calmed down, read about him and thought about it, I'm OK with it. He's not the person I thought he was.

It's an easy, safe and probably cheap appointment, but Mowbray's a decent pro with great experience who's been close to the club for some time.

Let's give the bloke our support and a fair chance.

It’s mental isn’t it. Some people won’t have a word said against the club.

I don’t think they’re to blame for Neil leaving but ffs show some ambition.

Quinny had the right idea with Keano. That’s exactly the sort of appointment we should be making now. A statement appointment to galvanise the fans. Not a jobs for the boys appointment ffs

Just came to see what you all thought of the Mowbray appointment and share my experience of five years watching his teams.

Firstly he has a reputation as an attack minded coach who play free flowing football the “right way”. This is nonsense. It was the most boring football I can remember.

Secondly he will play players in random positions such as the Bradley Johnson false nine experiment , the sam Gallagher at right back and many other strange choices.

He is a players man. Tries to keep everyone happy dishing minutes and contracts out like toffee to the detriment of the team. He will talk about journeys and slow builds to buy him time to top his pension fund up.

He will start all this waffle about integrity and being honest and humble and talk to you decent hard working class folk . It’s all an act.

And finally don’t forget the Xmas death spiral and early cup exits where you won’t win a game after Xmas and you won’t make it to round three of any cup regardless of opposition. He openly admitted he doesn’t work on set pieces and never checks the league table as long as he is developing honest lads with good personality, this also means you get substitutions that aren’t based on what’s happening on the game but who hasn’t had minutes . He didn’t sign a player for us we needed because he wore ripped jeans.

When it inevitably goes tits up he will say he’d rather be with his wife and kids . Not after being sacked whilst still in charge.

The man is clueless and as the weeks go on the sound bites go from heart warming to cringe to seriously get him away from my club.

I genuinely wish you all well for the season. Always liked Sunderland as a club and fanbase and you don’t deserve this appointment.

Get ready to start scratching your heads

This is how ive seen him through most of his career.
Dull, boring, soundbites.
