    Rumours are getting stronger the brothers could be joining the back team or at least Gary. I'd be pleased with this if it happens.

    Indeed, a match made in heaven.
    He flopped in Spain too.

    What's wrong with the existing coaching team?

    The Neville's can stick to punditry

    Agree with this....we just need stability....Sam gone....Moyes in...that's the only change that needs to be made....

    Under-21s did ok. Under-18s did ok. Ladies did ok. First team was our boil on the backside a couple of years ago, but they're looking more up to scratch now. I'm concerned about MVila situation, and wouldn't mind Yedlin back (we gave him a few games and he responded with the effort - I can't knock that). Leave the existing staff alone. They weren't our problem in the first place.

    Not bothered about Bracewell but Robbie Stockdale must stay. He's one of the best up and coming coaches in the country, did wonders with the U21s and done well since joining the first team set up.

    Stockdale has to stay!

    But you just watch. If he does leave he'll go to one of the teams in the top half of the league. Which would beg the question, if he's good enough for them, why wasn't he good enough to stay with us.

    Wouldn't surprise me if Big Sam wants him in his coaching team in some capacity. Think Ellis would tell him to piss off though.

    Fingers crossed but Moyesy might clear a few out like he did at Man U.

    I think I'd have to make Sunderland
    Two negatives make a positive mate.

    Blackwell & Stockdale must stay, they are caught in the headlights of Sam seeking glory with England.
    They have proved they know their tasks and must be kept as the link between Moyes and the team.
    I'm totally against Moyes,bringing in his mates to the detriment of these two lads, who have done nothing wrong unlike when a crap manager leaves and his minions follow him out the door.

    I wonder if Allardyce gave them a second thought when the clowns at the FA came calling .......

    Both pal, Bracewell is a link between the various levels and knows the club like his own foreskin.

    The lot of them should stay, but Stockdale I agree is doing too, top work.

    Would be happy for Bracey to stay. But it's usually inevitable that sooner or later a gaffer brings his own right hand man in. Would he be happy with a demotion?

    Probably not mate, but in a way his promotion and retention there was unexpected.

    Maybe Moyes doesn't rock the boat the deal was done quickly to think they are either all gone or none, ha.

    Let's hope he opts for keeping them. Apparently they both set up the pre season. Big Sam said he didn't even need tinker with it. It was perfect so he signed it of. It's reassuring. Hope they stay,

    Yeah that's coming over from the players. They really do look on great shape and credit to whoever has them there.

    Might avoid the 8 game deficit this year!

    An average first 8 games with mixed results would represent a massive improvement. <laugh>

    Precisely. It's the name of the game in football.

    Coaches and sub-level managers live or die on the success or failure of the guvnor above them.
