Nor everyone familiar with the championship knows he's a successful and respected manager, with few being more experienced than him.

Having a win percentage of 41.3% over 20 years is all the evidence you need, and his average of 1.47 points per game means he consistently gets his teams top half / promotion chasing finishes.

He plays exciting and attractive football too and players love playing for him.

You can keep posting away on here but until you acknowledge your Star Wars wallet post, it’s pointless.

Did you find it?

That was a bad appointment, going from Corberan's rigid and defensive setup to a manager known for free flowing attacking play was stupid.

Blackburn under Ismael played more in Tony's style and he'll have a preseason this time to prepare.
 
Wasn't overwhelmed when he was appointed but did wonders that season with the football we played was fantastic just coming up short at final hurdle. Overcame an absolute bastard of a disease in cancer and deserves another go at management. Best of luck to him.
 
Not a bad manager Mowbray. He pushed Blackburn quite far last time and plays decent and effective football. I think that is a solid appointment. When he first became our manager some Sunderland fans used his time at Blackburn as a stick to beat him with which in hindsight was unfair. Given their recent history, steadying the ship in the championship would be ideal.

Yeah he did very well here. I loved watching his team for the 14-15 months that he was in charge and rekindled my love for Sunderland and football in general. Likeable fella is Tony, a man of integrity and honour. I wish him all the best at Rovers

Some utter shite as well he got a bit lucky with having some talented players at the right time, top bloke decent job that's about it, he openly admitted his tactics were pretty much give it to the best players to do their thing no wonder he was limited
