There is that I suppose. Whoever it is will have to do it on a shoestring `cos they aint going to get much dosh to play with.
I am not comfortable agreeing - but he could get things sorted at the grass roots level and we do have a few very capable youngsters at the moment - they'll be elsewhere if we're not careful - watmore have they to do !!
We're stuck in the same situation we were a few months ago, we're a very unatractive prospect to manage and the managers that are availible and will come arent the most inspiring. In an ideal world i'd love to think someone like david moyes would come but as it is i just think that we're going to be shopping in pound land this time around, someone like sean dyche might be the best we can hope for.
It would be extremely interesting to see what he's learned, how he's changed and who in our current squad he'd kick the crap out of. I'd choose him over most linked.
A few places reporting you have made a move for Pearson? http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/oct/06/sunderland-approach-nigel-pearson-manager
If it was me I'd beg him to come. I'd fully expect him to say no but we need to be aiming higher than we have with the last few.
Not sure if anyone heard this but I was talking to my mate after the match on Saturday and he said that, apparently, Short has been having meeting with Mickey Gray and discussing the club with someone who supports the club and knows (basically) what we want - no idea whether it is true or now but would be interesting if he's taken heed of a "fan" (although I'm not too sure about Mickey being a fan like I class myself or if he's let Talkshite get to his head!!) I wouldn't be disappointed with Allardyce as he is a mid-table manager - he's "next level" to what we are at the moment - De Boer would be great mind but I don;t think he's realistic in our current position!
I don't get why people are suggesting de Boer. He'd be insane to come. Nor would he be what we need ie Tony pulis type.
The bloke you Mackems deffo need is the fella At Lens.... Hunt.... what's his ****in first name???.... Isaac ,
Mid-table manager?? Any manager who can get us there, and keep us there is a bloody genius to me! If gobby saggy-fulla-****-a-chops can just keep his gob shut for long enough we might have a chance of getting Big Sam signed up and getting up to those heady-heights of mid-table!!!
