Tbf to the fans they have won 2-3 games at home all season and I believe went a whole calendar year without winning (at home). If the record was like that at Selhurst, I reckon our ground would empty out if we let two goals down.

I’ve borne the same grudge from the moment I heard him say it on TV that evening, so I’m pleased to read that I’m in good company. Git (him, not you!!) Edited by YT (22 Apr 2018 5.57pm) Used to get into The Builders for a half when a player. Nice bloke. But that Cardiff comment was indeed inexcusable.

overall he record is record is ok. Nothing special but ok. Did well for Wales and I think he will probably have some credit in the bank because there's long list of managers that have come unstuck up there. Can see him getting another Championship / Low premier league job Is he not sticking it out at Sunderland? They've got to have the biggest stadium League 1 has ever seen.

Sunderland need to take a leaf out of Man City's book when they were down there. Tickets were cheap as chips. Given thatthey still have parachute payments there is really no reason why they can't do it

I don't rate him much, good managers can make the best of a bad situation As with most managers it depends on the club, he started at Fulham who were well run, had a very good budget under Al Fayed and seemingly a club on the up, he just had to manager the team or steer the ship if you like, it's a different ball game to a club on a downward spiral and struggling, that's when your managerial ability is really tested and he doesn't to be able to turn the tide there. He'd done nothing with Wales without Bale - fact That's why I think Warnock is a very good manager, working wonders at Cardiff and before that turned Rotherham from relegation certainties to safety, he's done it consistently at nearly every club he's managed

We were defensively very good under Coleman. Largely with players that board have consistantly said that they wouldn't want anywhere near the club. Like I said before he is an OK manager, a reasonable record but you couldn't really see any fans get excited if he was appointed as their club manager

He'd need to pay someone to take it. They might have parachute payments but I believe they have been losing an absolute fortune since being relegated. Man City had about 80% capacity in the year they were in the third tier, I can't see Sunderland getting 40,000 even with cheap tickets.

I didn't know that, I thought that they had someone lined up and the give away comment was a figure of speech. Whatever happens it just proves once again the going down to regroup and get back up is a stupid mantra

Didn't I read a couple of weeks back that Niall Quinn was trying to get a consortium together?

Coleman would've taken us down quicker than the titanic.

Sunderland are a proper basket case and I don't think you have level to much blame at Coleman's door for this relegation. The question worth asking is why did Coleman take the job in the first place? Did he think he could be some sort of hero if he saved them? One thing is I'm damn glad that he isn't our manager.
