TigerTedd Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Bet he wished he stayed at wales now. Always thought that was a pretty stupid career move. This puts their hopes of an immediate return to the championship in jealousy I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet if you asked a prisoner on death row whether they'd like the job, he'd say, 'No thanks, I'm happy where I am.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can they really expect to get anyone better. I thought they were super lucky getting him in the first place. He’s done ***** while he’s been there, but I don’t think that’s all down to him.

Mr. P Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Jack Rodwell earning 70k a week in league 1 is a downer aswell! Can't see anyone buying him either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read somewhere that Sunderland's TV money for next season will be eaten up by Rodwell's wages by the start of November. I'm not sure how accurate that is but the merest hint that it is believable shows how far up **** creek that club is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean he’s basically asked to be released. Meaning that all his talk of ‘I’m here for the fight whether that be in the championship or league 1’ was all ********. Cant say I’d blame him, I’d want to get he **** out of dodge too, but it all seems a bit disingenuous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll just go into administration, start again from scratch and move back up the leagues! It's worked for a some clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, seriously, I agree with you, I wondered why he took that job on, going from a job he was quite revered to one where it was precarious to say the least. I don’t think it’s done his CV any favours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWC1983 Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Looks like all change at Sunderland. Ellis Short has sold the club to a consortium, of which one of them has something to do with Eastleigh FC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Oh well, how sad, never mind. But on the plus side, we can add him to the pool of potential next Forest managers after Karanka's ether fallen out with them or been sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably, and they will probably make lower paid roles redundant and pay small local businesses 10p in the pound, but the players on 70k a week will still turn up in their aston martins or bentleys taking home their huge pay packets, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaffsRam Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 Funny if they got stuck down there for a number of years, but I suspect they'll be back up this time next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronnieronalde Posted April 29, 2018 Share Posted April 29, 2018 I know at least one person who would be keen on that job. Irrespective of where they are financially they'll be a massive pill at that level. There is a rumour tom naylor may go there to double his salary. Dropping down a division and doubling his money, that's how big they are. One season of pain to buy out contracts of all the wage thieves, buy the best of league one and they'll be back whoever is in charge. They don't need to pay fees. Wages and playing in front of 30,000 will be a huge pull. I know the fans are anti club but any sniff of a top two push and they'll be back in their droves. Massive club. Massive job that a lot of managers would struggle to turn down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
