Captain Benefit said:I think it may have something to do with his attitude and persona of late. Every time he is interview he appears as sarcastic, arrogant
This seems to be very much the view of the majority of Sunderland fans. £4 milllion wasn't much even back in the 80's! To buy a set of quality players to keep Sunderland up he would have needed four times that and probably more.KevD said:I think the fans reaction tells a story and has done all season. There hasnt been much of a Mick out movement throughout the season, it has all been aimed at the Chairman Murray.
Sunderland have been unlucky in some games, played really well in other which is credit to McCarthy but the fact is you cannot come up from the Championship and spend £4Mill. They were going down from the beginning whil Wigan and West Ham, without breaking the bank have bought in players of Prem quality at good value.
If he wasnt going to get the backing from the board, he is better off out of there
