You do realise he walked into a club bottom of the championship and won the league. The following season struggled to attract players as we'd amassed 34 points over 2 seasons the last time we played top flight football. Kept us up and we went on to have our longest run in the top flight in decades. He started that. Don't try and belittle the job he done here. He was an undoubted success

He lost the plot, we were in freefall and he'd created one hell of a mess. That's why he ran away, he knows that.

He does know that. He has more or less admitted it. But he is older and more considered now. He has grown up, and has a point to prove.

And I'd settle for that again now if it was offered mate.

Just our of curiosity, where do people usually get ITK info from? Never get fuck all me :lol:

It's usually very random. I've been ITK a few times but very rarely regarding Sunderland.

A friend of mine's ex-wife is now with the kit man or physio at a premier league club. He's super reliable. It kind of makes sense. If you're handing the step kids over you'll grasp for any small talk you can get. If that means giving away a few trade secrets so be it.

I know a fella who coaches the son of a current manager. He's passed a few midly interesting bits on.

In my experience being ITK means you're only a six hours ahead of what's common knowledge or six pints away from commiting slander.

If the people currently being linked are legit he's a level above the knackers we have in the ever decreasing pool of shite we're being linked with, I'll give you that.
 
I've also heard this is a done deal.
Here's the bizarre part.........
We're a third level team, about to get Roy Keane as manager, but I honestly don't think it's gonna work out :neutral:
