They would be better suited by appointing Lee Mack, he is better qualified in performing with Jokes
No idea if he was their first choice, but I thought the likes of Pearson and Cook would be too savvy to touch it. They'd feel they can do better.
Too right, there are a few good names out there, you would think they've been burnt to many times & the next time they'll get it right, there were a few on here calling out Gibbo for some of the managers we've had since McClaren, but they just go overboardNo idea if he was their first choice, but I thought the likes of Pearson and Cook would be too savvy to touch it.

He has a good record & 'as I mentioned, new owners who you would have thought wanted the best they can get, maybe he isWhy wouldn’t a club in that position go for Cook?
Can’t blame managers for turning that down with how many managers they have been through. Plus with the salary cap they are essentially just another club at that level now, any financial advantage they had will be disappearing by the season.He has a good record & 'as I mentioned, new owners who you would have thought wanted the best they can get, maybe he is
True. I actually thought they woukd have come up 1st time if asking but since they are no different than the chasing pack in each of the past 2 seasonsCan’t blame managers for turning that down with how many managers they have been through. Plus with the salary cap they are essentially just another club at that level now, any financial advantage they had will be disappearing by the season.
Shame
I thought everyone liked Lee Johnson? Was that last week?
I too am surprised at the comments about Johnson. I think he’s a decent appointment for them.
I do but I was thinking of the lines of Cook or Pearson, I just find the noices coming out of the stadium of light over the past few weeks they would have pushed the boat out, with fans maybe allowed in early Feb & big appointment with the new owners would have got the place buzzingI too am surprised at the comments about Johnson. I think he’s a decent appointment for them.
He’s a smug get who’s done **** all. Rated because he is ‘young’ and says he likes to play football. Right out of the Garry Monk copybook. Woeful manager who will find the Sunderland job to big for him. I will give it this time next year and they will be looking for yet another new manager. Ask Bristol City fans if they think he’s any good.
