Sniffing round Reggie…


G'day Folks! Talking of contracts, I was reading the report on Iraola signing on at LiVARpoo this morning. I was struck at how he's on a two year contract! I thought "WOW! that's interesting" Upon reading further, it seems that the bloke has operated on short-term contracts throughout his career.
 
Probably supported Sunderland longer than most on here and I hate the scruffy gravy stained, horse punching, bed sheet waving Mags with a passion.

Apart from the first nine or ten games we have been subjected to slow predictable boring football and conceding the first goal in 21 of circa 30 games when I posted that he should go.

I posted the statistics that we more than doubled our points total per.game when scoring first.

I also posted that his playing out from the back was.predictable and easily countered and we needed to mix it up.

I said also we were devoid of set play routines and wasting ELF on the wing

Plenty were calling for his head after Forest and Port Vale but suddenly he changed things against Man U Everton and Chelsea and we got into Europa.League

Had he switched on earlier we would have been playing Champions League

I don't subscribe to this small time mentality that we should be grateful where we came from and overachieved as we have the sixth most full internationals at the World Cup.

He seems to be learning albeit slowly so ill.let him stay for a little while.longer.

Utter trolling gibberish and barely readable.
 
Wouldn't really see the point. He only signed one last summer. Give him a huge pay rise for sure but that doesn't need a new song and dance announcement
Not sure why they're bothering to announce that the Head Coach who has equaled our highest finish in the PL and brought European football to Sunderland for the first time since 1973, has signed a contract extension.
 
Im not worried about him being taken by any other Premier League team.

The better ones wouldnt want him and we are a big enough club to stave off anything below us.

My only concern would be a French side in Europe which might be better for him and his family.
 
Lives 2 min walk from me. His wife walks dog with bunch of people past my house and she seems happy enough , as does Reg when I see him ( not as much as her).

Possibly downside is me staring through the gap in his curtains, but he seems to be getting used to it

Aye - question of whether Liverpool have little faith in him or he has little faith in Liverpool.😉
