Davkaus Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Some odd people on those Sunderland forums. Many type in the manner of which they speak, throwing in "like" at the end of their sentences. Then there's threads like this If that's a parody of the north, it's hilarious. If it's not...**** me.

Isa Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) Considering that RDM's stock will possibly never be as high again, he should probably try to hold out for a better job then Sunderland.

peterms Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 However much of an arse Di Canio is, this also seems a fair point: ...Di Canio can count himself unlucky after trying to incorporate 14 summer signings made by Roberto De Fanti, the club's director of football, into his squad. Of those recruits 13 were foreign and only five had previous Premier League experience. Their failure to communicate properly forfeited a series of goals – and points – at set pieces...

The_Rev Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 But aren't the signings on him? It's like saying he was unlucky for being shit in the transfer market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samjp26 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I can't believe there are 14 new players. Jesus. Basically what Lambert has tried to do with us (overhaul the whole squad) over a period of 2 seasons, but they tried to do it in 2 months. It was never going to work, Altidore looks a shadow of the player I thought he had become in Holland too. McLeish, as I said earlier on, I wouldn't wish him to manage my worst enemy. Hope for them he isn't in the frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want McLeish to get it - victory over Sunderland with him as their manager would be so sweet, especially if said victory was achieved by way of attacking football.

turnbull Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I can see a lot of similarities between Sunderland and Wolves. They're both shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) If Di Matteo takes it, he will be following in the steps of the late, great Tony Barton. Former european cup manager dropping down his demands and taking over a unglamorous side in the east of england. Not that I am saying Northampton and Sunderland are similar but....

The Fun Factory Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 sadly, a very smart move. Should never have been hired in the first place. Relegation spots just lost an automatic pick though He did keep them up last season so ultimately fulfilled his short-term purpose. Probably the right decision sacking him this early though. Clearly too much of a risk keeping him now his initial impact has worn off (thanks to us). Yeah but you could say McClueless fufilled his short-term purpose of keeping Villa up. At least we had the decency of showing him the door, and not giving him the thick end of 20 million to spunk on 14 players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Shearer did talk some garbage on MOTD. Kevin Kilbane is quite eloquent. To me Di Canio was only ever a short term solution for Sunderland. They should probably have got rid of him at the end of last season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 (edited) He just doesn't help himself, needs to have a few lessons in man-management and public relations before he applies for a similar job in the future I feel I think he needs a brain transplant with a sane person before he ever applies for a football managers job in the future. Mad as a box of frogs.To say to he was a short term solution at blunderland is a bit like saying a nuclear attack is the short term solution for war.

Di Canio kept them up when they would have almost certainly been relegated had O'Neill stayed. Sunderland still probably consider themselves up on the deal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
