Matty Hewitt and Dom Shaw sit down in today's We Are Sunderland Morning Briefing, Friday, June 8, to discuss the latest in Sunderland's search for a new head coach.

Former AZ Alkmaar boss Pascal Jansen is understood to have been a target for the Black Cats at one stage during proceedings, while a number of unnamed candidates are still said to be under consideration.

We Are Sunderland understands recently linked Stockport County boss Dave Challinor and St. Mirren boss Stephen Robinson are not currently part of talks for the vacant role.

It's been 109 days since the Wearsiders parted company with boss Michael Beale and supporters are beginning to make their feelings known on social media towards the club.
