Speakman spoke really well.

Tony is a bit quiet rambly & repetitive but does come across as a real nice guy.

But hope his Boro kid is crying come Mon night -- after we stuff them
I think he’s going to be more of a “father/grandfather” figure and the coaching will be led by others. I have no problem with that. He said his main thing is making the players feel wanted and I think with the likes of Bennette coming in at 18 to an entirely different country halfway round the world that’s just what he’ll need.
 
"Alex is an ambitious coach. When it came down to it we couldn't give him wanted he wanted".. hmmmm... lack of ambition?? Or couldn't give Alex the £££???
 
I'm glad someone's relaxed about the situation, cos I'm not. Let's get him pinned down to a longer contract (with a salary that reflects the impact he's made), at best he'll stay longer, at worst we can get a higher fee.

Be typical Sunderland if he ends up leaving on a free, and I'll end up crying into me beer for his loss and the loss of the fee 😢
Beer Is watery enough now without you blobbing into it. Funny, but the way things are panning out lately I am not as concerned as maybe I should be. Speakman spoke quite well, so fingers crossed
 
Comes across as a nice bloke Mowbray but jesus hes boring😂. Dont care less though aslong as we get results on the pitch
 
Stoke will not be getting promoted any time soon.
Probably not, but it’s what their owners are probably going for. A quick promotion.

There’s a fair few fans on that Stoke forum who are convinced they should be battling for promotion with the squad they’ve got.
 
Who gives a flying fuck tbh. He's gone.
Supporters give a fuck.
I don’t buy that, surely he knew what the situation was when he negotiated his contract, unless you think Speakman reneged on an agreement?
Obviously been a breakdown.
Both probably as well as location. Alex doesn’t strike me as a patient manager either. Wants to get back to the prem ASAP so has went to a team targeting promotion.
Which should be our ambition aswel tbh.
