Think it already has tbh - the writing is on the wall for any manager when a local rival comes to your patch and beats you 4-0Bugger!! we needed Mogga's post Christmas slump to take effect before they dumped him off
Agreed. Very harsh sacking.Sunderland lost 32 goal contributions from last season (Diallo, Stewart and our own Simms), not dissimilar to us. Also not dissimilar that they are under performing xG. I think the sacking of Mowbray is exceptionally harsh.

Yup. Every time he gets sacked he seems to be promoted to a better job.Maybe Rooney will take it when he gets sacked at the weekend
They had a European shortlist drawn up in April. One of their agents let the cat out of the bag and Mowbrey knew then he was on shakey ground. They kept him on having over-achieved in getting to the playoffs, but were then waiting for the right time to boot as he's got a lot of credit from the Sunderland fans. Once he started criticising the recruitment policy that was it.Not really as big as a shock as being made out
Don’t forget they only brought him into consolidate in the league after Neil jumped ship and they were going to get rid in the summer but reneged as he massively exceeded expectations
They were likely to get rid at any bump in the road this time around - I think they’ll go into the European market for their next manager myself

Christ surely that’s in jest.Think Mowbray gets a lot of unwarranted stick if I’m honest. His record bar that second season with us is pretty good. I think most managers would have struggled to recruit well that year, we had a lot of players leave and no budget to bring anyone of any quality in.
If Robins was to go (hope he doesn’t), I wouldn’t be opposed for him returning. Would be very different under the current ownership.

He took 22 points from a possible 63 after we walloped Crewe 5-0 on New Year’s Day - that was relegation formThink Mowbray gets a lot of unwarranted stick if I’m honest.

With a depleted squad. The side was never at full strength after Jan. They were a bunch of kids that needed reinforcements. Instead we got the donkey Henderson along with Stephen Hunt and Peter Ramage.He took 22 points from a possible 63 after we walloped Crewe 5-0 on New Year’s Day - that was relegation form
Couldn’t care less what owners he was working under, with the talent he had at his disposal that was absolutely criminal
Armstrong had played Premier League football umpteen times for Newcastle before he joined us and Murphy had Championship, League 1 and League 2 loans before he come to usWith a depleted squad.

‘The talent’ in reality were just kids. Always were going to be inconsistent and none of ‘talent’ had really experienced a full season at senior level.
It is no coincidence he has done well pretty much everywhere he has been.
