New Sunderland Manager

[1964white]

Chris Coleman has left his Welsh job for Sunderland

Is he mad ?

[HarryofOz]

Maybe he thinks he can lure Gareth Bale up there

I'm sure money played a part

And I see that Martin O'Neill is being linked with the Scotland job

Crikey didn't see that one.
I hate to say it that's a good appointment
Micheal O'Neil for Leeds ?

That's surprised me, I thought he could do better than that.

Nor me, tough job all the same

I suppose he doesn't have to live in Blunderland with beautiful Northumbria not far away

And teach him all about pigeon racing, so that Bale would have something to do once he retires

It's actually Michael O'Neill for the Scotland job if you look on that link H. NI have an agreement with him that he is free to go if he wants, according to the BBC.

Oops, my mistake. I have to admit that I've never followed it that closely and always assumed that the NI boss was Martin O'Neill

Did the interviewer correct him and tell him that it's called the Championship?
