To be fair, 4 of our last 5 appointments have been non-merry-go-rounders

Quoted from Ipswin



My selection of Stockdale has nowt to do with him being a past player (if I had my choice for past players to manage Town I'd have Matt Tees as manager and Charlie Wright as his assistant) it is purely because he has at least some experience in coaching / managing without having been around the block a dozen times like all the old out of work hacks that will no doubt be lining up. We can't risk another disaster with a totally unknown 'I talk a good job and I've got a top coaching licence' like Jolley or an old dosser like Slade. Stockdale fits the bill for me


This. There must be a reason Sunderland were always happy to give him the reins whenever they sacked a Manager. Young hungry up and coming manager (hopefully).


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I have nothing to say for or against Mr Stockdale but, believe me, being given the reins to do anything at Sunderland is no recommendation. The way we've been run for the last several years was evident from the recent Netflix series. The staff at the training ground restaurant seemed canny though; the football side of things not so much, actually not at all really.
He did have the good sense to get out when the Hibs opportunity arose so he might be ready for a manager's post. As we all know it's very hard to tell how good a novice manager will be until he's doing the job. Rather him than Kevin Nolan certainly.

Given that supposedly there are 30+ applicants I expect that there will be allsorts of random names in there. How many of those are realistic contenders? Probably less than a handful.

No doubt there'll be at least 20 'Football Manager' applicants, all of who think that they're the first to think of such a bantzy jape.

There are about 36 names on that manager odds list. I wonder how many of them have actually applied for the job (less than a quarter, I'd say).

Also, there's some awful value on those odds. Why on earth would you bet on Nolan at evens?! I doubt anyone's been interviewed yet.
