Keep smiling Mogga, it won’t be long till you’re back in a job. I suppose getting into the play offs last season and 3 pts off top 6 this is classed as failure at Sunderland. Let’s see how they do without you. Sack the guys responsible for bringing players in + letting them go .

So the Wolves boss refused yet again to shake the opposing team managers hand - last week Tony Pulis - last night Neil Warnock. I laughed when Warnock told him to F### off - Warnock’s language is not as offensive as someone refusing to shake your hand in my opinion.
