I couldn’t believe this

Automatics gone

Why was Johnson sacked with no clear idea

16 games left

Fuckin amateurish people pretending to be smart

I don’t often get mad about Sunderland and probs defend them too much but this seriously fuckin annoyed me

The moment’s passed Kristian


Why was Lee Johnson sacked if not ?

Why did he think Mike fuckin dodds would be a better manager for this game

You’re absolutely spot on mate


I doubt a manager in for Tuesday now

So just 15 games left

It’s just amateurish

Bang on mate. f***ing pathetic running of the show in relation to the head coach.

Thus needed sorting ASAP and we're giving interviews before a huge game saying that we're taking our time with it. There's 16 f***ing games man and we are in danger of dropping out the play offs at this rate.

Its beyond shite. Also absolutely ludicrous timing to make such a statement on interview. Right before a big game at home. Killed the mood and excitement dead.

I bet he thought Donny at home would be a banker allowing him more time.

Well he needs to get it f***ing sorted ASAP or we can write ANOTHER season in this shit league off now.

I'm raging tonight and it's absolutely justified the way we've carried on

Forgetting who should and shouldnt get the job, which at this stage is blindingly obvious from the names listed.

Isn't having, at any point in time, a number of potential head coaches in mind exactly the sort of thing a 'Director of Football' is meant to be doing? Basically the shortlist is like something Donald and Methven would have put together - a list of names of people who are available because they have been sacked by other clubs in League One or the Championship, plus Roy Keane. And this is the man who thought Lee Johnson would be a good fit here.

Shouldn't he have been finding the next Neil Critchley or Liam Manning? Isn't that his job?

Speakman doesn't really know what he's doing, but the 'ownership team' have put all their faith in him.....

imo we're fucked as long as he is in the main chair making decisions

That is Sunderland in essence. All piss and wind and Keane would weed that out.
I’m guessing a yes man will be appointed.

as has been the case for the past 3 appointments

I think speakman doing that interview today suggests that he won't be like. Strange thing to do after doing one 2 days prior

No need to do it at all imo, given the goodwill the club has got this week already and nothing new being said other than what everyone already knew.

That saying sprung to mind "better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and to remove all doubt"?

Looking at Speakman, the appointment of Johnson, the coaches, they all seem to be from the same football place, all talk the same bollocks, all about the process, strategy etc bet they’re all great with a laptop and stats. No way would they want their cosy little bullshit world turned upside down by a character like Keane. It’ll be another no mark who talks a good game.
