Hide AdBolton boss Keith Hill was asked at the weekend if he may have a decision to make in terms of reshaping his backroom staff.
“Potentially, but there’s nothing that is 100 per cent guaranteed,” he said. “We have a plan and would obviously need people to replace them. But we’re happy to deal with that situation if and when it develops.”
Sunderland host Tranmere Rovers at the Stadium of Light on Tuesday night, Parkinson’s first home game in charge of the Black Cats.
