Dunno if it'sbeen mentioned here but apparently Niall Quinn
is ready to pack in the managers job at Sunderland and
is close to getting a world class manager.



Niall Quinn says he is close to bringing a "world-class" manager to Sunderland.

Quinn, who named himself as Black Cats boss just a month ago, is ready to step
down, revealing that he could have a new name in place by Monday, when
Sunderland play West Brom.

Did he do himself up a resignation letter, as part of protocol and what not.

Maybe tried to pursuade himself to stay and give it a couple more weeks?

Not really a surprise - think this was always the plan? But losing 2-0 to Bury, bottom of the Third Division, certainly didn't help!

That rumour is gaining a lot of momentum tonight. I would like to see Brian Kerr get a run. Running an international team is a lot different to running a club team. Could be interesting.

Somebody from abroad is my guess.Will the club be releasing a statement thanking him for his service
and wishing him the best of luck in his future career?

I'm suprised that he didn't give himself a vote of confidence - didn't think he was the bashful type.
