He keeps getting chances that can't possibly fail ... yet does. He managed to damn near fck up Wednesday last season from an impregnable position. Warnock is an old dog & full of old bastard tricks but he grinds it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He managed to damn near fck up Wednesday last season from an impregnable position. One of those managers I change my mind about. As you say, appeared to "blow it" with Sheff Wed, but to get in that position they won a ton of away games 1-0 or 2-1, where they just made themselves grind out a win, a lot to be admired in that. They looked very organised and well drilled at our place. Then it went pear shaped from around the time we drew there and he suddenly looked like a poor manager. Then I was very impressed with the dignity and calm he showed after getting thrashed in the 1st leg of play offs at Posh, and it was a massive achievement to get promoted from that position with the fans baying for him. Clearly a great bloke with good principles, so good luck to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree JR, I have a lot of time for Moore and was amazed when he was sacked by Wednesday, although there are all kinds of stories about wage increases wanted but then I suppose it depends what he was on before?

Johnnyrotten Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Beale unsurprisingly sacked by Rangers. He'll probably be back at QPR once they've lost patience with Ainsworth, unless Stevie G gives him another coaching job. Ainsworth is bound to return to Wycombe eventually.

Johnnyrotten Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 A decent appointment by record-breakers Cheltenham in the circumstances: Darrell Clark who did good jobs at Bristol Rovers and Port Vale recently. At least new manager bounce won't be a factor by the time we play them again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Lampard, if your club was linked to/appointed shite like that you'd be sacking it off for a season (or the 6 months or so they'd last in post before being found out yet again) and sinking your money into other things.

Yes he got Sheff Wed promoted, but had a very poor run to go from top I think when they played us, to missing out on the automatics. 7 points from 8 games including 1 point from games v FGR and Cheltenham. Then the thrashing at Posh in the 1st leg, the fans were already twitchy and they may have thought they could attract better by being in the championship.

It's possible they miss Alfie May, who svored 2 last night for Charlton ... or, less likely, big Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted October 4, 2023 Share Posted October 4, 2023 Meanwhile it appears Frank Lampard will deign to consider the Rangers job. There's an air of Mrs. Merton's question to Debbie McGee about him isn't there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
