Howard Wilkinson.. David O Leary... Howard Wilkinson... George Graham... Howard Wilkinson.... you get the idea.

It seems such a simple choice to make... sadly Sunderland didn't see that.

Although next time a managerial job becomes vacant and Wilkinson is jobless (trust me that will come sooner as you think) I'll make sure I place a bet on him to take it. He always seems to get jobs when he's never mentioned in the press. Funny that, I wonder what odds he had for this one...

Nothing can stop Sunderland now!!
Division One football is imminent!


But c'mon, Howard Wilkinson!!???
The guy hasn't had a 'real' job since he was at Leeds when he sold Cantona!
Well... there was that one game where Anelka destroyed us when he was insanely put in-charge of England on a temporary-basis.

What has he won??
How many Premiership teams has he saved from The Drop??
How many years is it now since he last managed a top-team.....???


Bad, bad, BAD descision!!
No sooner after they have signed will Tore Andre Flo and Marcus Stewart being asking for Transfers away-from The Stadium of Light - along with Phillips.

Even Niall Quinn could do a better job!
At least he KNOWS the team he's stuck with untill January!

Heh, what is this? some sort of domino effect?! George Burley (similar to Reid) had been manager of Ipswich for 8 years! and they tossed him out after a few dodgy games...

Whos next? :S

Yeh true.

I can't understand how Howard Wilko is an Improvement on Peter Reid I really don't.

Peter Reid Made Sunderland from a bunch of crap into a team and brought them to where they are today, he's a decent manager who will get snapped up easily.

But Howard Wilkinson?

He sold Cantona to Man U for £1 mill

Meh.

Cheers Wilko :D

lol

Although he was the last man to win the old First division...but also flogged Cantona for next to nothing...

Would have preffered if they had got McCarthy in. Then at least Keane would get back in the Ireland team.
