Saint-Armstrong Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Sounds like it could be Poyet? Although I'd go with Alan Irvine. Some quotes from Poyet tonight... "I sat down with Lee [Congerton - Head of Recruitment] and we had quite a unsuccessful and frustrating chat. I feel that I'm not getting the players that are essential for me to do my job. I said there's something wrong within this club and it's still there, I'm not sure what else I can do to change it." "I heard that Paolo Di Canio had a similar experience with the last person that was employed to make the transfers and that didn't work out for Sunderland." "It seems like it's happening all over again. I was promised a few things before I signed my new contract and they are not being delivered. That is frustrating for me and my staff and I now seriously need to take a step back and evaluate my role at the club."
sussexsaint Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Poch, to Liverpool . To essentially coach the same team as last year
The9 Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Poyet judging by that, can see Redknapp getting the boot pretty sharpish this time if QPR look even remotely like they did last time around too.
DuncanRG Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Gary Monk. Or Paul lambert Actually, I'm changing my answer to Paul Lambert. Unless they make some good signings quickly they will be in serious trouble
SNSUN Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Allardyce. Signed some good players but has been told to get West Ham playing in a style unfamiliar to Him. He's under big pressure to deliver.
Olallana Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Lamberts task is nearly impossible and I dont think they will fire him whatever happens for them this year. Would also cost them extra money and dont think Lerner is up to that...
Toon Saint Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Shame as he is a very good manager (putting aside our rivalry with Brighton). Wonder whether this is over the Borini deal, as it seems he now wants to stay at Liverpool and fight for his place.
Saint_clark Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Jeez, Poyet really is a gimp. This isn't about feeling hard done by, this is about getting his excuses in early.
angelman Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 Rodgers (if the first few games go badly for them), with Rafa coming back in.
Saint-Armstrong Posted 22 July, 2014 Author Posted 22 July, 2014 Sunderland fans going mental online although some are suggesting quotes are manufactured... The Echo up there say they have an extensive message from Poyet tomorrow, and some writers who are Sunderland fans would appear to have tweeted them too.
SaintJackoInHurworth Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 I would place them in this order: * Monk * Poyet * Lambert * Bruce * Pardew * Allardyce * Irvine * Redknapp * Pearson * Van Gaal * Koeman * Dyche Beyond that I do not anticipate any other managers will face any chance of being sacked.... * I think Poch will be very successful at Spurs and the fans will eventually get behind him. * I think Rogers will continue to do well at Liverpool, though they will possibly be less successful than last year having lost Suarez. * Mourinho is a cult hero at Chelsea and a great coach for them. * Pellegrini will continue to taste success at City - no-one else gets near to their in-depth squad quality! * Martinez had a great season last year and Everton are a patient club. Even if they are not as successful this time they will be slow at sacking him, unless they descend to being relegation fodder. * Similarly Stoke's successful season last time will ensure Hughes is given plenty of time Stoke, who rarely sack managers. * Finally, Crystal Palace will be delighted with their run-in to the season and will not rush to sack Pulis even if they don't do as well this time out.
angelman Posted 22 July, 2014 Posted 22 July, 2014 I think that Roy Keane should be on that list between Irvine and Redknapp.
SNSUN Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 I think that Roy Keane should be on that list between Irvine and Redknapp. ? So Villa will sack Lambert, appoint Keane full time, then sack him? I suppose it could happen, although as has been said Lerner is a penny pincher and wouldn't want to pay the compo.
andoru Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Redknapp will be under pressure from the off. QPR basically need to survive in the PL to survive as a club full stop. If they get relegated, they will be hit with such huge fines back in the Championship that they'll likely fold. So if Harry gets off to a poor start, the chairman will have a decision to make – stick, and hope Harry pulls out of it, or get rid and avoid the risk of doing so much damage it can't be undone.
Jack Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 (edited) Redknapp will be under pressure from the off. QPR basically need to survive in the PL to survive as a club full stop.

Every ounce of me hopes that this happens - QPR and Redknapp massively struggle that is. The two are so well suited to each other, complete sh*tters. Edited 23 July, 2014 by Jack
CB Fry Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Does Poyet's rant make Sunderland the laughing stock of all football or is that still just us?
Saint Charlie Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Poyet is a complete tosspot. He always uses this tactic. In a few days they will make some sort of big signing most likely. At Brighton there were a number of times post match that he threatened to quit even just because Journalists asked him if they should have had more shots. He might be a decent Manager but he is a **** man.
Cestrian Saint Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Koeman will be gone before the likes of Redknapp and Bruce. He won't be the first to go but I certainly don't see him making it through the season.
angelman Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Koeman will be gone before the likes of Redknapp and Bruce. He won't be the first to go but I certainly don't see him making it through the season. My God there are some negative posters on here, so negative that I can only think they are WUMs. Why on earth do you think that he won't be here?

Professor Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 ................. Some quotes from Poyet ... "I ......... feel that I'm not getting the players that are essential for me to do my job. I said there's something wrong within this club and it's still there, I'm not sure what else I can do to change it." "............... I was promised a few things before I signed my new contract and they are not being delivered. That is frustrating for me and my staff and I now seriously need to take a step back and evaluate my role at the club." A twinge of concern when I read this. Important for Southampton that events don't allow Koeman to feel the same. It seems reasonable to assume he was promised what the fans were promised, more actually because we were told no players would leave whereas Koeman has said he was told that three were going, but we were all told that the squad for the new season would be stronger than last year. There is still time for that to be true but as each day passes the doubts accumulate. At least Koeman will know better than the fans about what is being done and as long as he doesn't feel like Poyet, all should be OK. Koeman has impressed as an open and honest communicator which is a good reason to be positive as long as he is.
Fan The Flames Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 .... because we were told no players would leave. No we weren't.
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Rogers will be under pressure. Too many big time charlies at Anfield, Gerrard past it but will be persisted with, Sturridge has caught Torres disease and Suarez is gone. I can see them losing their first one at home and the pressure building from there.

I know we like to think we are the only club with problems but I am postive that there are others worse off......
The9 Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Does Poyet's rant make Sunderland the laughing stock of all football or is that still just us? Didn't Cortese's near exactly the same comments about not being given an acceptable level of investment last year do the same?
kpturner Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Pretty poor form from Poyet to says these things in public (if he did). That said, it makes for great entertainment.
Beckenham Saint Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Koeman will be gone before the likes of Redknapp and Bruce. He won't be the first to go but I certainly don't see him making it through the season. Damn, didn't have you for this comment in the sweepstakes! Also, nice to see Gus getting his excuses in early. Wish everyone could get things sorted this early, Ralph and Les should take note!
kpturner Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 He's a skate, already been outed. Not sure why he keeps on posting. Can't be a Skate because he is a self-proclaimed semi-ITK poster. He told me as much in another thread so it must be true.
SaintRichmond Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 If he's got any sense, Koeman If ever there is a lame duck, Southampton is right now
angelman Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 If he's got any sense, Koeman If ever there is a lame duck, Southampton is right now If ever there is a lame poster, St Richmond is right now, Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!
saint_ed Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 If ever there is a lame poster, St Richmond is right now, Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!! I genuinely have no idea why he spends so much time on here.
Goatboy Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 If he's got any sense, Koeman If ever there is a lame duck, Southampton is right now What a hideous waste of time you are.
kpturner Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 If he's got any sense, Koeman If ever there is a lame duck, Southampton is right nowAren't you supposed to be some sort of budding sports journalist? If so, I have a vacancy at my place for a WUM to irritate the recent student intake. You can practice journalism at lunchtimes.
lickierambert Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 1. Lambert. He might walk around October time to be honest. 2. Pearson. Their owners get ideas above their station when they're 16th or so around November. Cardiff mark II.

Still an awful post though.
Doctoroncall Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 I genuinely have no idea why he spends so much time on here. It keeps him away from killing himself?
Ohio Saint Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Poyet to go first, Van Gaal to be very successful.
St_Tel49 Posted 23 July, 2014 Posted 23 July, 2014 Koeman will be gone before the likes of Redknapp and Bruce. He won't be the first to go but I certainly don't see him making it through the season. Any reason? Personally I think it highly unlikely.
