David Moyes was serenaded by the red and white army following his unveiling at Rotherham United’s New York Stadium at the weekend, and the new Sunderland AFC manager is relishing the start of a new season at the Stadium of Light.
The Glaswegian arrives on Wearside with a stellar reputation following spells with Preston North End, Everton, Manchester United and Real Sociedad and has called upon the club’s supporters ahead of the 2016-17 campaign.
“I'll need everybody behind me. We need the help of the supporters and all I can say is I'm here to build, make [the club] better, and try to give Sunderland a stability which it's probably lacked.”
David Moyes’ side welcome local rivals Middlesbrough FC to the Stadium of Light for their first home tie of the 2016-17 campaign, on Sunday 21 August, with home games against Everton, Crystal Palace and Arsenal all featuring in the opening stages of the season at the home of Sunderland AFC.
