Former Hamilton boss Alex Neil says he's aiming to rack up plenty of wins to help his new Sunderland side into the English Championship.Neil has been out of work since leaving Championship side Preston last year but returns to the dugout with fellow ex-Accies manager Martin Canning as his assistant.His first game in charge was a 1-1 draw with AFC Wimbledon and the Bellshill-born boss faces a fight to get Sunderland out of League One.Neil's focus will remain on success this season after being appointed on a 12-month rolling contract.He served Accies brilliantly as a player before guiding them to the Premiership during his two-year reign as boss between 2013-2015.He said: "It is a privilege to be head coach of Sunderland AFC."Everything that I saw from the players this morning made me really confident and gave me belief, so what we now need to do is replicate that on a matchday – when it matters – under scrutiny and under pressure."Our task is to try and win as many games as we possibly can and at this moment in time we are focused on this season and this season alone."Follow Lanarkshire Live Sport onTwitter via@LanLiveSport, like us onFacebookor find us onInstagramfor the latest sports news, pictures and video.
