Chris Coleman admits Sunderland regret and what he didn't like about Netflix involvement

Chris Coleman has admitted he has never watched the Netflix series 'Sunderland 'Til I Die' because it would be "too painful" for him to view.

The Welshman was manager of the Wearsiders from November 2017 to April 2018 and oversaw their drop from the Championship. It was a second successive relegation that pushed the Black Cats into the third tier of English football for only the second time in their history.

Four years later the club are still residing in unfamiliar territory but are hopeful of ending the unhappy stay as they compete in next week's League One play-off final against Wycombe Wanderers. It has been a long road to get to that Wembley final, and whilst Coleman inherited a troubled club upon taking the job he says the fact he was unable to prevent relegation still hurts him alot.
