After finding out that Phil Parkinson will be the new Sunderland manager, fans took to give their reaction with some backing him and others feeling underwhelmed…
Did an outstanding job at the Bantams, and don’t underestimate how bad things were when he took over, we’d just finished 18th in league 2. Within 2 years we were up and had got to the league cup final. His football is direct, but he wins matches. Solid appointment for SAFC

Our support is toxic at the minute. I've supported Sunderland for 39yrs and this is the worst it has been. If he has the job he has got to be given a chance. Think he needs to hit the ground running to get the fans on side ASAP.

Embarrassing appointment.

Phil Parkinson's appointment clearly shows the owner's lack of ambition, lack of knowledge and lack of confidence.
I'd be surprised if we even make the play-offs now.#SAFC

If you're already slagging off Phil Parkinson and not wishing him the best on his first day preparing the lads to play those wankers at Wycombe then your a mag. Get behind him and the lads. Ha'way the lads! #SAFC @RokerReport @SunderlandAFC

Sick to death of these negative bastards and fifth column mag shit stirrers. IF it’s Phil Parkinson then he deserves a chance. Absolutely disgusting that people are slaughtering the guy before he’s walked through the door. Who would want to mange us with fans like this!

I’m all for giving people chances but surely we could of done better than fucking Phil Parkinson!! Let’s hope he proves me wrong..

@KierenJennings: Phil Parkinson hasn’t even been announced yet and fans are already twisting! This might come as a shock but we’re in League One! He’s proven he can get teams out of this league, which is exactly what we need! Give your heads a shake man! #safc ?⚪
@FarthinTroy: Phil Parkinson imo great man deserves credit he will do good at sund imo give him time
@charlsafc: What’s wrong with Phil Parkinson as SAFC boss? Am I missing something? A lot of our fans think we’re 10x bigger and 10x more attractive than we actually are ?
@Vinlad84: Dont get the Phil Parkinson issue. Were a fucking league one club. Hes had teams promoted 3 times under difficult circumstances. Get behind him for fucks sake. #safc
@joeytaylor123: Sunderland and their divine right to be massive again!! Moaning about Phil Parkinson potentially becoming the manager, never happy them lot up north.
@LPD_1912: Phil Parkinson is a dreadful appointment and Stewart Donald is a total chancer who is softer than a post-madras shite. A new low point for our club this, just when you think it couldn’t get any lower
@adamreeek: Fans who are accepting the Phil Parkinson appointment are also accepting we are a league 1 club.
@tmalbrghtn: If Phil Parkinson lands the Sunderland job, its safe to say that Jack Ross should never have been sacked. An appointment that goes against everything Donald & Methven have professed to represent. An appalling appointment, only going one way. #SAFC
