Has Coleman been offered a ridiculous salary or something.
Why anyone would agree to manage Sunderland when they don't have to amazes me.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Multiple year contract, guaranteed to be sacked and paid off with several million within a few months. Loony.
unless they go down again, bust and he gets 10p in the £ from the administrator. I doubt they are chucking £4m plus pa at him, they're totally rooked. might be a takeover coming of course and its the new owner that's hired him, that's the only thing that makes sense. TBH his club managerial career was far from stellar, so maybe he's not exactly awash with offers and it was either Sunderland or a period out of the game.
In some respects though you could look at Sunderland as a bit of a free hit for him....if he even manages to stop the rot for long enough to pull them out of the relegation zone then he builds on the reputation he had at Fulham for keeping a poor team out of relegation trouble.
If he fails and they go down then it doesn't particularly hurt his reputation as they're well known to be a basket case of a club (unless of course he's given a blank cheque in January and uses it to make a load of bad signings).

Somebody will reverse the trend, Coleman thinks it can be him. I'm sure he won't lose much sleep if it doesn't work out.

Maybe he likes a challenge. Seems he saw Sunderland have more chance of success than rangers, or maybe rangers was too much of a challenge?
No Cole Former Wales boss Chris Coleman turned down the chance to manage Rangers to join English Championship strugglers Sunderland Coleman parted company with Wales on Friday and spoke to Ibrox chiefs but will instead join the Black Cats at the bottom of the Championship
Spoiler: click to toggle By Colin Young CHRIS COLEMAN turned down a shot at the Rangers manager’s job to join Sunderland. SunSport can reveal Coleman spoke with Gers chiefs on Friday afternoon about replacing sacked Pedro Caixinha at Ibrox. He quit as Wales boss just a few hours later — but not to take on the Gers job. Instead he will sign a £750,000-a-year 18-month deal with the Black Cats tomorrow. The news is a further blow to Gers, who suffered a shock 2-0 home loss to Hamilton today. Interim boss Graeme Murty is unsure whether or not he will be in a job on Monday after the Accies first win at Ibrox in the league since 1926. And their search for three wins in-a-row continues after the Hamilton defeat sparks one-year since the Govan side last managed the feat. Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes turned down the chance to manage the Black Cats in the summer and Coleman will now become their second permanent boss of the season. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/1857710/chris-coleman-rangers-sunderland-turned-down/

If the hun spoke to Coleman, then after nearly 3 weeks, it looks like their first choice and probably their second, third and fourth have said feck off.
Of course, when an idiot eventually turns up, he'll be announced as the only guy they wanted

Michael O'Neill won Shamrock Rovers their first league in 15 years and took them into the group stages of the Europa League! He then took NI to the Euros last year.
That's a better CV than most of the diddies being mentioned.
While I agree with your point I am not even sure 'CV' is the most important aspect in play. Berti Vogts had won the Euros and was abysmal for Scotland. Trappatoni - CV was unbelieveable but in terms of a fit for Ireland he was just wrong. Connor Sammon leading the line - good grief. To me Michael is just a good fit - has lived in Scotland for years, knows Scottish football inside out. And when you add that into the mix I honestly don't see how, realistically, Scotland are going to fare any better. I've never bought in to this idea that Vogts was a decent manager because he won the Euros with the best team in Europe, Avram Grant would have won the Champions League if John Terry didn't slip in the penalty shootout, he's still an appalling manager.
Trap did what no Irish manager did in 10 years & got them to a major finals, he did a god job surely?

Trap did what no Irish manager did in 10 years & got them to a major finals, he did a god job surely? He did but he football was brutal, as it has been under other managers but Trapped got serious stick for it. The hammering at home to Germany was the begining of the end. Undefeated is his first WC qualifying campaign, lost in the play off to Henry's handball then qualified for the Euros but things went south after that. We were poor during the WC qualifiers and people turned against him after the Germany game, I think the next game was a loss to Austria and he was sacked.
A good record but as usual people expect more.

Pulis to Wales I would think.
Looking forward to seeing his easy on the eye style transferring over and brightening up international weeks without Celtic.
