How are sunderland viewed by managerial contenders? (The Athletic)


It’s all about Speakman briefing Dodds into the conversation . His mate who will do as he is told . Even in the quotes above from Dodds about young players are the party line . Young players will either be sold for a lot of money or take us to the Premier league he said however neither of those things might happen . We are being told not to be ambitious and not to expect
There's also the option of Dodds buying in to what they're trying to do rather than him just doing as he's told.
 
Given he's a Championship coach and prior to that was L1 I'd say he'll have an idea.
To his own admission he was barely involved in league one and prior to that he hadn’t been involved in senior football . He was third tier in the first team management set up with very little knowledge of the professional game . He’s close to Speakman though and won’t rock the boat in any way. He will be the new HC

He has however been heavily involved in the Championship last season and this so again he'll have an understanding given he coaches the players on a near enough daily basis. Why should he rock the boat if he agrees with the plan, he'll not be the new Head Coach.
He wasn't. Didn't want to benchwarm for Stewart.
He didn't fancy having to compete with Simms either, apparently.

I’m sure he has a great opportunity to be the Head Coach because he won’t pressure them to deviate . Being with this group of players doesn’t tell him what is needed . He has no point of reference other than this very young group
 
Another shite article tbh. Talk about Stewart being sold and replaced by our other cfs when Stewart was sol last min so we didn't have the chance to reinvest it. Equally essentially saying we should spend more than out turn over on wages, is a stupid idea. Yes it had worked for some, but only 3 teams can get promoted. Saying Notts forest succeed and look capable of staying in the premier league for year is a stupid statement as they look woeful and are one of the closer teams to relegation
 
And manager worth his salt should believe in himself and should always think " i can do a better job there". The potential at the club has always been there, in theory, so why would any manager, especially up And coming not risk 18 months of his life here and try and be " the one".
Fuck it, I'm dreaming again.

Not challenging and making a true run to get back to the PL is the only thing that the supporters want everything else will be considered a failure by some which will be followed by attendances dwindling in the next couple of years…..I do not think the supporters will be happy if we end up like Stoke City….
 
Basically nobody of any repute wants the job.
Punted Mowbray without having a plan,had a few 'targets' knocked us back.
Mikesy might be the only option.
 
Think its a great job for a young coach, massive potential to do big things, excellent recruitment team already set and if you fail, no problem, just blame the narrative that money isn't important in football.

😂😂😂😂😂

Complete and utter load of shite. If Bob has fed you that and you’ve bought it, your dafter than a bloke in his 60’s going around an internet message board saying knarrs and having shit craic like Phillipsy or summerbysy, oh wait….
 
I just really hope we get someone in asap this week and we're not competing with Stoke for our key target, thus extending the process.
