Tony Mowbray was sacked on Monday evening after 15 months in charge of the Black Cats after a poor run of form saw them win just two of their last nine league games.

Mowbray took over Sunderland back in August last year and it will not have been an easy decision for the club's board to sack him after he guided the team to the play-offs last season.
