Seems when his ban is up at the beginning of June that he's going into management at Fleetwood. Not sure whether he'll still be a player as well but you would think so.

Good luck to him. I hope he copes with the responsibility.

It seems likely he will have a couple of games with the unwashed next season, he never liked them as I recall.

Good point, CTM. Sunderland will have something to look forward to, the return to S of S of both Joey and Shola.

I would love Shola's 100th senior goal to be in front of the mackems.

They might even get treated to a chicken dance celebration from the manager, they love that you know.

Good point, CTM. I wonder what the odds will be for the Magpies to win 5-1.

He talks a good game but its a different ball game picking the team. He will be working with players at a lower standard than he is used to and i can see it ending in tears
