Sunderland apparently have moved pretty swiftly in appointing Dick Advocaat as manager

Manager sacked in the afternoon, new boss in the evening.

Ellis Short doesn't mess about. Sunderland look to have a new man at the helm already after Gus Poyet's sacking earlier today. Former Rangers boss Dick Advocaat is said to have agreed terms to take charge at the Stadium of Light until the end of the season and, well one thing we'll say, he's never been relegated. The Dutch man's last job however didn't go so well, Advocaat dismissed from the Serbian national team reins after not even four months in charge. Opta's Netherlands correspondent Michiel Jongsma has reported quotes from the 67-year-old from Dutch magazine Voetball International. https://twitter.com/JongsmaJongsma/status/577594225698717696 https://twitter.com/JongsmaJongsma/status/577597136893804544 https://twitter.com/JongsmaJongsma/status/577599455450501120 https://twitter.com/JongsmaJongsma/status/577600197649424385
