Richard Wright would like to be interviewed for the job of manager of Sunderland AFC. He feels he can bring a fresh approach to the job. Experience? FIFA career mode, Football Manager, fantasy football and many more games. But these are games. Yes but he also has an Ireland Football Association mini socccer coaching qualification.

Sunderland have tried young managers and that hasn't worked. We have tried experience and that hasn't worked. Now its time to try clueless enthusiasm. A man who loves his club almost as much as he loves pies. He used to live in Sunderland so already knows the place and is ready to start right away.

Statement:

Hello. I'm Richard Wright and I am throwing my hat into the ring to be the new manager of my club I love. Yes, I am writing this on a phone on the bus so there may be mistakes. Sorry. But appoint me and there will be no mistakes on the pitch. Because I won't pick John O'Shea. Look, I am unknown but you want that. I'm cheap and I don't even like flowers that much. I'm a stand up comedian so just think of the team talks. Brilliant. All I ask is that they interview me. Put me in the room and I will convince. I look forward to your support
