I really don't know what you're complaining about then? :confused:

Bain has gone and found who he feels is the best candidate, that actually wants to join. He's got his man. Well done Bain.

Reeto. So, he's git the whole world to look for a new manager like every other club has. He doesn't even look beyond the UK man. He had his cronies do his job for him regarding Mcinnes. The man is a fraud. Aye, well done Baine.

What do you nit understand by saying I've previously gave my explanation on this. Obviously you got no thoughts of your own.

I don't know much about Grayson. But I do know he wants the job, and that he thinks Sunderland is the biggest club he's managed.

Contrast that with Moyes attitude and it has to be an improvement.

His comments today about what he expects from the players are positive too.

Let's give the bloke our backing.

Agree with you. When linked with him I was massively underwhelmed and when it became obvious things were moving fast today I didn't feel much better but after reading comments from Leeds and Preston fans and his own comments, along with actually wanting to be here, I've perked up a bit and quietly became pleased about it - it's just a relief to finally have a manager in place so we can start prepare for the season.

Hope he is backed 100% even by those not keen on him at all, he's come into a total mess of a club and risked his reputation when he could have sat comfortably at Preston so it shows he's got balls and he has my respect for that.

How do you know he hasn't? You had no idea who to appoint. You stated it was Bain's job to find a manager not yours. He's found one, and you're not happy because he's from Preston.

You wanted a foreign manager in a nice suit with a hard to pronounce name didn't you? Regardless of whether he was the best choice or not.

Of course he's pleased to be here...so would you be coming from Preston!

True :lol: we're just that much of a basket case at the minute with Short still here that I can see why some managers might have wanted to avoid becoming another statistic in the SAFC managers graveyard.

The lad asked you a question and you never answered. I'll repeat it, who would you have tried to appoint?

Christ that kit and that manager, this is a f***ing nightmare right? When I wake up tomorrow Big Sam is in charge and the Mags are in the Championship, that right all is good, calm down :neutral:
 
Good appointment this imho. Square pretty in a square hole. Young enough to be ambitious, old enough to have experience. Can work on a budget too.

We won't get promoted with him, but at least we won't get relegated again. Mid table
