Sunderland manager David Moyes has accepted criticism from supporters, claiming that it is to be expected after what has been a difficult campaign for the Black Cats.

Moyes’ side are rock bottom of the Premier League with 10 games lefts to play, already seven points adrift of safety.

And although there has been talk of replacing Moyes with another manager until the end of the season, the Scotsman feels that a change of manager would further disrupt Sunderland’s season.

He told the ?Sunderland Echo: ?“I think Sunderland supporters have been through it all before, and they would turn around and tell you that changing manager is not the right way – the club has tried that. 

“I think they have seen that it has not worked, and the club has had to look to try something else. But when you’re not winning, you get the criticism that goes with it.” 

“It [clarity] has helped, I think. We have tried to be right up front, there has been no hiding anything. 

“My comments in the first couple of weeks of the season did not go down well, but I was being honest because I didn’t think we had enough to get us away from where we were in terms of relegation battles. 

“The supporters have been great, but if they weren’t then I would totally understand.” 

On the topic of Aitor Karanka’s sacking at Middlesbrough, Moyes added: “It doesn’t always [make a difference], but nor is there a rule that the manager who comes in always makes a difference in the long-term, even though sometimes it can give you a short-term boost.”
