Honey Honey Posted November 7, 2017 Posted November 7, 2017 Ellis Short said a good season for Sunderland is finishing 5th or 6th in Premier league and a bad season is finishing 8th in the Premier League. Christ. They've had 60 bad seasons since Hitler shot himself.
Dave Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 His contract runs out after the friendly against Panama and he hasn't yet decided what he wants to do. Given this guy is a failure at Coventry this is truly a sorry state of affairs. I imagine he will be exposed at club level and given our chairman's love in with ex players it will probably happen next season at Palace.
Honey Honey Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 He's probably waiting to see if Zidane gets the chop
Dave Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 He must be livid in his final game there fans couldn't fill a 25000 seated stadium in his final match.
Smiley Culture Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Paul Heckingbottom linked now. Could leave the club he supports, Barnsley, for Sunderland.
Smiley Culture Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Drew against a country named after a BBC investigative programme. Regardless of the fact that Wales had a weaker team, that's an appalling result.
Danny Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 They had a unique situation with the passing of Gary Speed and handing it over to Coleman, I think the effects of that in terms of player and team performance has worn off and this qualifying campaign has probably been a return to normality for Coleman.
Honey Honey Posted November 15, 2017 Posted November 15, 2017 Might he be waiting to see who Wales draw in the Euro 2020 qualifiers on December 2nd?
Dave Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 He must know something about a takeover that we don't.
Honey Honey Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 1 minute ago, The Palace Fan said: He must know something about a takeover that we don't. Michael O'Neill turned them down over the transfer budget. Desperate Coleman perhaps?
Smiley Culture Posted November 17, 2017 Posted November 17, 2017 Chris Coleman will be found out as the shit manager he really is here, I can see it but much like the last shit manager Sunderland had, David Moyes, Coleman will get another job in six months time once he's been binned by Sunderland because of his "reputation" which is also known as "Gareth Bale" and "the worst European Championships of all time".
Administrator Batard Posted November 17, 2017 Administrator Posted November 17, 2017 Bizarre move. Sunderland is where careers go to die. He’s fucked himself
Honey Honey Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 Despite what everyone says about him being shit I think the players they've got will get a lift from knowing he's willing to manage them. If they ended up with the Barnsley manager it would be a real reminder that they are bottom of the league dross and no better. They could do with a confidence booster and most confidence is a lie. They should be right up for it against Millwall tomorrow.
ScoRoss Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 Clearly hadn't had many offers as people could see through his record as Wales manager, otherwise, he wouldn't have even considered it. At least he'll be coming in with very low expectations, I remember watching their first game of the season and Derby only drawing at the Stadium of Light was seen as a decent result for Derby. Looking back at it now, they'll be gutted by it. Their stadium just always seems empty, even with some of the biggest crowds in the division, and that must be a sapping experience for the players every time they play at home. Don't know why they don't 'compress' the stadiums and close the upper sections of it until they have the demand needed to open it.
Administrator Batard Posted November 18, 2017 Administrator Posted November 18, 2017 There’s a pervasive drinking culture at Sunderland that no manager has successfully be able to break there. If Coleman wants to succeed he’s going to have to drive out the worst of these offenders.
ScoRoss Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 One thing that any manager has to look at is the length of contracts for the players at the club. No one is going to want to take these players from Sunderland, so he'd have to look into how long he is stuck with the same faces that have sunk the club to the level they find themselves in. Not to mention how their contracts are actually constructed and the wages that they are taking up. The club is known to be strapped for money, so it's not like they can bring in new players and still paying out fortunes to John O'Shea and Jack Rodwell alike. Moyes tried to bring in players he trusted to break the culture of the club but, looking at them, they were either young players (who can't be relied upon to change a culture) or squad players from previous clubs that were never leaders. Whether Coleman can actually change an entire culture, especially with stories about his time in Spain and his lack of professionalism there, seems a huge task for him.

Honey Honey Posted November 18, 2017 Posted November 18, 2017 Chris Coleman wasn't at the Sunderland game today because he was turning the Christmas lights on in Newport. Fucken hell.
