grass not always greener eh Chris ????

Apart from Wales he has been a poor manager....he will still get another job in 6 months though......How ??????

I expect the Wrexham forum will add him to their list.

To the National League North

Thought you meant John Coleman for a second, that would had been crap reward for getting Accrington promoted

I thought you meant david coleman

Really surprised he took the job.He could have had further talks with FAW but seemed to jump at the first offer that came along.

I would imagine he was offered a lot more money for managing Sunderland than he was for managing Wales.

Chris was outspoken with regards to continuity going forward. His direct and indirect criticism of the owners, Chairman looks to have not been tolerated.

Surely he would have known that! Makes you wonder if he generated incentive for a push to get out of being a league one manager at what appears to be a poorly run club.

Only an opinion.

I'd agree with that assumption. When it was quite clear that the team was not improving, maybe even getting worse, he probably thought that being critical of his employers would make it certain that time would be called at the end of season.

I think that he has been sacked from all of the clubs he has managed except for Wales where he had few options open to him and the team almost picked itself.

Good pay off tho'!

Looking at the way Westley, Pardew, Hughes etc continue to get work, I don't think that matters as a manager.

Crap manager and even worse tactician. Can't fault him for his results with Wales, but you have a talisman like Bale that wants to play for his country and lifts everyone around him. Imagine if Bale was like the current manager who only turned up when he felt like it. Would Ramsay, Allen, Williams be as committed as they are now?
Coleman got very lucky and he jumped at the first half decent club job that was waved at him in the right timeframe. He's been found out now and unless he drops wage demands or works for bugger all then he will struggle to find a job in the top 2 tiers for quite a while.

Suspect Sunderland were known to be such a basket case it won't wind up reflecting badly on his CV.
