i think its simply that the first team is an area with its own budget, the academy a different area with its own budget etc..and speakman aportions his time between all of them on that basis
And I suppose had a big say in leaving us post window with 2 fit centre halves
 

The worst management of a football team I’ve ever witnessed

Pick just about the same team that got murdered last week and keep all the new signings on the bench until it’s too late

Clowns
 
38k, new signings not played until far too late and Defoe giving an underwhelming return whilst we couldn’t score against bottom of the league Doncaster with a -35 goal difference.

Put a hunk of bread and cheese in a scarf, tie it to a stick, give it to Jevons after the match, and drop him at the railyard.
 
You can start with the academy but you need to take years to get the philosophy to every level of the team as the younger players come through. We are in the 3rd division and don’t have that luxury without killing the game for us. We can’t continue to play at this level. It is not sustainable.
If I was a manager l, I wouldn’t accept Speakman making the calls when he has little experience and doesn’t take the heat.
No different to other appointments that we have made. Most of the players brought in are young players on loan. This is Sunderland FFS.
I don't mind the Speakman waffle tbh He doesn't get to the point eventually, when answering a question. Very Chinese of him actually.
 
I wouldn't say the play-offs are negatively a foregone conclusion like - the new manager just has 16 games to shape us mentally into a 3 game, mini-knockout tournament winning team by the end of April.
(I'm trying to be positive...)
 
caretakers had a chance to switch things up today, bring the new lads into the fold and really go for it. Instead they opted for more of the same shit that got thumped 6-0 off Bolton
Exactly this. f***ing useless wankers. Hope they're all sacked
