Sunderland Handed Boost In Pursuit Of Manager With 42.5% Win Rate
Following Tony Mowbray’s dismissal in early December, the Black Cats were positioned just three points outside the playoffs with a positive goal difference. However, the club’s fortunes took a downturn in the aftermath of Mowbray’s departure, resulting in Sunderland’s descent into the bottom half of the Championship table, perilously close to the relegation zone. Their aspirations of Premier League promotion have been dashed, particularly after suffering a humiliating 5-1 defeat at home to Blackburn Rovers, leaving them trailing 13 points behind Norwich City, who occupy the final playoff place. As the season progresses, Sunderland’s pursuit of a new manager continues, with speculation swirling around potential candidates.
