The Palace Fan 2,020 Posted April 26, 2018 Chris Coleman says he would like the chance to get Sunderland back on an upward curve, after failing to prevent the club from suffering a second successive relegation. The former Wales boss says it will be impossible for things to move forward until the ownership situation is resolved, adding Sunderland is "almost floating aimlessly in the dark". Last Saturday's 2-1 loss to Burton confirmed that Sunderland will be in League One next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 11,526 Posted April 26, 2018 Where were they when he took over? Not that it makes a difference as they needed to go down otherwise they'd just be floating around the relegation spots in the Championship for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When Louis Saha was keeping Fulham up, that's about it I think. Like Moyes someone else will hire him thinking that he wasn't in any way to blame and that Sunderland are just shit.

I think when you've burned through so many managers in a period of time that after the 3rd or 4th sacking you've got to be realistic and say well all of these managers can't all be that bad, it's probably us doing something wrong.

The Palace Fan 2,020 Posted April 29, 2018 I'm presuming the new consortium buying the club have said they don't want him at the club? Given his lack of sucess at Coventry I think this was always his level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
