Sunderland fans have been plunged into a state of despair with the appointment of Micky Beale as their new manager.
Tony Mowbray had performed a very respectable job in getting them into last season’s EPL Play Off after taking over from Alex Neil who quit at the start of the season for Stoke.
Mowbray is a real life manager, time served and realistic but it seems that wasn’t enough for the Sunderland board who have clearly had their ear bent by the CAA Base Agency who recently took Beale onto their books.
? Sunderland AFC is delighted to announce the appointment of Michael Beale as the Club’s new Head Coach.

Sunderland fans can now expect a steady diet of self promotion from the Brains Behind Beale, in the north east of England fans will quickly tire of listening to all of the fings that Beale finks about as he drops his A-list contacts into every conversation.
After lasting 10 months at Ibrox it would be a surprise if Beale finishes the season in charge of Sunderland, in England match officials aren’t allowed to be involved in matches affecting the team that they support.

This is horrendous, by the way. Read the room, lads. 95% of the fan base don’t want him here. A complete car crash.

Sacked TM for this? Can KS point me in the direction of which stats , data make him an improvement on what we had? Be very interesting. Hope he does amazing things at Sunderland and proves every1 wrong. At least u unified the fanbase, haven’t seen many happy about this.????

One of the most underwhelming managerial appointments ever at SAFC. Expectation is close to zero and if we lose to the Skunks he might as well pack up and leave. Shocking appointment.

Horrendous appointment, there is definitely a difference between what the fans expect and what the club are willing to do

I’d be less disheartened if you’d have given the job to Ian Beale! Don’t get this at all. pic.twitter.com/fpimAFaRw2

Probably Sevco will be delighted as they will no longer have to pay his wages…
What a week for Sevco –
We implode – yet again…
They top their European group –
The win The League Cup (aided by Cheats yet again)…
Even our women dropped points and their lot won –
Even our B team lost…
Jeez oh – I need to hit the bloody booze –
Ach well at least Clachnacuddin won their FIRST game of the season (at the ripe old seasons age of December 16th) !!!
Even though they have appointed some right bell-ends in the last decade, I expect Sunderland are going to seriously regret this choice. Mowbray may be a bit of a ‘Ron Manager’ which would no doubt leave the “ambitious” types in the boardroom a bit cold, but now they can expect a steady stream of hot air from Billy Bealeshitter….
Can’t see this ending well.
I “fink” this is a mistake how is he going to improve on 7th where they are at the moment?
Gone by March.
