Not a pot to piss in

I thought speakman said in February they had to conduct applications and interviews to find the best candidate.

What happened to that? Why are we know just appoint Stuart Harvey's mate?
Maybe because we’re up against the transfer window closing, and potential targets won't come without knowing who they'll be playing under.

It might be a short term contract to provide some stability.

He also did well integrating youngsters at Blackburn I'm led to believe. 🤔
 
People are rightly disappointed in Mowbray man, he's a complete nobody should even Blackburn peddled after they'd had enough of him.

We've got a sporting director who tells us how crucial interview process is 6 months ago and now doesn't bother with one. It's a complete joke.
IF he gets it then yes it is a joke.
 
Third highest net spend in the championship
It’s why we haven’t got a pot. We keep buying/loaning players
It’s a middling appointment for me. I’d rather more ambition.Best case scenario would be someone like Farke.

But I also don’t think he would be a bad appointment. Blackburn haven’t really had money to spend. I’d argue he’s done a similar job with them to what Neil did with Preston,

Though I appreciate I’d be in a very small minority with this opinion. Though the majority were underwhelmed with Neil in league 1 and now most are pretty gutted he’s gone
Not alone. Middling is spot on. I’m not excited but nor is it a bad appointment. We needed someone in quick after delays cost us points last season.

Exactly the same situation as when Johnson left and we still did interviews.

Next excuse?

Yet he was heavily criticised for taking an age last time and has moved quickly this time, so how can he win?

I honestly don’t understand why people are so disappointed. He did canny with Blackburn last season. Who else would we have got? This is not a time for left field risks imo.

He keeps telling everybody he keeps a list of possible managers.

Is a big massive coincidence he happens to be mates with the head of recruitment.

Mowbray has to start well, if he loses the first 3 or so he will be toast already. Loads of goodwill has just disappeared whether people like it or not.

It’s a choice that works with the short notice situation Neil left us in, imo.

Any manager would have been the same.

Based upon how the lads played today, I’m not worried.

If we had waiting til after the deadline and it affected our transfer business etc. then the knives would have been out anyway.

Not an excuse, just an observation.

I'm not excited by the appointment, if it happens. But we’re just an average championship side with certain fans thinking we’re better than we are, just because we get ‘big crowds’.

Deluded. 😐

A big club acts like a big club and we certainly don't. Heaven forbid we could consider taking somebody in a job.
 
get fucked because the appointment is underwhelming? why dont you get fucked for accepting mediocrity
The Alex neil appointment was under whelming 6 months ago and that didnt go too badly. Another of the same ilk but who doesn want to manage stoke city would do for me.

Stoke city man. Maybe AN is too embarassed to admit he wants to be stoke city manager rather than sunderland manager to be able to comment on the situation. Unambitious twat
