MR wouldn’t work with a director of football, he’d want final say on signing next

Jesus wept

I bleeding well could blame him for going there, anyone but them

Neil has said his goodbyes at Sunderland

We’d never get him In an ideal world I’d have gone for that Naby Sarr who has just signed for Reading on a free, but we don’t live in an ideal world

Well I’d imagine every club in the League is trying to emulate Brentford, well run club who look like they will establish themselves in the Premier League for years to come - Who wouldn’t want to emulate that

No one has ever claimed to be following Brentford’s model other than fans to be fair We’re in a bit of a no man’s land by that if all reports are correct the club is quite clearly up for sale, and no owner would pump loads of money into a club they are trying to get rid of - In the meantime...

Is Viktor supposedly off then?

He’ll know, he’s obviously friendly with some of the players Should just keep the information to himself in my opinion

I don’t doubt Mr Dawkins is correct in this information to be honest But if I was the club I’d be seething that players are leaking information to him, it’s not his place to announce player arrivals and departures

I can’t quite believe they didn’t offer him improved terms after promotion and decided to keep him on his rolling contract I do think this young owner of Sunderland is a bit of a chancer to be honest, that lot will lose patience very quickly if they lose Neil and make a mess of appointing his...

Doesn’t even bare thinking about him going there

When a manager has spoke to another club like that I don’t usually see a way back Seem to remember Steve Clarke was manager of Reading a few years ago, he spoke to Fulham and he didn’t get the job and Reading got rid anyway Mark Hughes was Fulham manager once and spoke to Villa, didn’t get...

When is the Robins to Sunderland thread starting

Alex Neil given permission by Sunderland to speak to Stoke

Speaking to Stoke

He’s only on a rolling contract at SAFC so wouldn’t take much compo I’d imagine Sunderland’s directors and rapidly drawing together a new contract for him, be equally as disastrous for them if he was to jump ship like it would be Robins with us

I’ve made my thoughts known that I don’t think MR goes to Stoke and obviously I’ll be happy if I’m not proven wrong Something very fishy going on over at Sunderland, Alex Neil the favourite and he’s apparently bailed from doing his weekly press conference this morning

I meant he was on a hiding to nothing as he quite clearly wasn’t up to the job* my bad

Not disagreeing with that to be fair, he was on a hiding to nothing from the off - any other manager would have sacked it off when Delieu pulled that stunt of sitting on the bench
