Sunderland boss needed a break
Sunderland boss Tony Mowbray admitted he needed a break from football after his Blackburn Rovers exit. He has said: “It was a life balance for me. I was living two-and-a-bit hours away from home, I’ve got three teenage boys. I wanted to come home and kick the ball in the back garden with them for a bit, go on holiday and get some sunshine and play footy on the beach with the kids, be a husband for my wife. But I’ve had three months of that and she is sick to death of me!” (Northern Echo).
