and Sunderland's manager next season is...

[GrahamH]

David Moyes.

I didn't see that coming.

Benitez he aint..I guess unsurprisingly no one else wanted his services.

 

[billythekid]

No surprise to me after what has been said recently.

 

[tednphil]

With 4 years left on his 5 year contract, then it's hardly surprising he's staying.

 

[billythekid]

What they need is stability, not sure the Sunderland fans be happy with Moyes.

Maybe they should look for a lady who could give them strong and stable leadership. :grin:

 

[GrahamH]

I wonder if they have relegation clauses in their player's and, indeed, manager's contracts as I hear they're £110M in debt.

 

[billythekid]

When they were talking earlier this morning about Moyes being asked to stay on, Five Live mentioned they probably will have to be without Jermain Defoe next season as they believed he has a contract to say he can leave if they are relegated.

Also mentioned WBA showing an interest.

They surely put some relegation clauses in Moyes' contract. Didn't they?

From the Championship ? That would be wise :grin:

Can't see them getting back to the Premier League any time soon.
Really poor side.
