if hes not gone by now, hes not going, gartside won't admit to yet another failure by him

Or maybe Eddie has said we can't afford to sack another manager at this moment in time

Posted

As for lee Clarke give me a break maybe league 1 manager but he's shown he can't handle championship.

 

Steve Clarke. Former WBA manager.

are you deliberately dense

 

you and others chuck examples of how changing managers has been successful as tho its dead easy to get shut, get another and be successful

 

the fact of the matter is that most clubs who sack managers don't achieve the success they are looking for

 

they than sack another one

 

and another

But you seem quite happy to stick with this fella for the sake of stability. He offers nowt else. Nowt. No sign of any ability in the transfer market, bugger all sign if bringing through the youth and seeming cock all in terms of tactics. Why wouldn't you get shut?

i'm generally happy with his signings

 

which of our young uns should be playing?

 

 

i won't keep him for the sake of 'stability' i'd keep him cos i think he knows his stuff, he built something at palace ona small budget while developing young players

 

i don't expect a bloke to do that in 12 fcuking months

He had a good 8 game run at palace. Much like the one he had with us last season. Flash in the pan. He'll do nowt in the game. Thing is does he do nowt with us or elsewhere? Edited by mickbrown

err look who are second

 

so what has he done and what similarities are there between what maclaren inherited and what coyle left

 

ffs, you never tired of telling us how much of a cock coyle was and how the players were all shite

 

why the fcuk do you think that can be turned around in 12 months

 

shouting at a few pisscans to run faster so they win on a sunday is nowt like managing highly paid pros - you do get that, don't you

 

don't you?

Posted

What exactly is he trying to turn around? We finished 7th last season. This season should have been about pushing on, not starting all over again.

Posted

If Derby finish in top 3 then this division is a lot worse than I thought. I bet you thought McClaren was great for England too.

Not at all, just a better manager than freedman and clough, the derby board also saw this hence why they did something about it. Freedman like clough would never get promoted whereas someone decent can

yesterdays team had 4 players who started against hull at the reebok last season

 

that team was made up of players all on premier league contracts

 

we now have a team made up mostly of players nobody else wants

 

i don't agree that this season was just a continuation of what had gone before

Those players haven't left the club, they're still available for selection. If he's picking players that 'nobody else wants', that's his choice. If was able to get the best out of them last season, he should be able to do the same this season. Unless of course, there wasn't much method to what he was doing...

Your quite right with the above comments, Dougies made a dogs dinner of it this season he's alienated most of this squad with his dropping and chopping and changing, and it shows when they pull on the jersey, I've got the right hump with Freedman he's really fucking me off at the moment, think I've too much spare thinking time on my hands.

I don't believe we played well in our 'good run' last season - we were very lucky in many of the games.

 

Our fans have not been entertained at home matches due to very strange tactics and the position we find ourselves in is all down to DF and the so called superb tactician LL

 

I understand why some people say give him longer but IMO it is not going to help; we will just deteriorate further

Bogdan, Ricketts, Knight, Dawson, Alonso, Davies, Spearing, Pratley, Lee, Sordell, Ngog

how many of those games did you see?

 

i saw 95% of them and we were good enough to win plenty which is all that matters

 

 

 

the 3 on here that watch us at least as much as anybody else all posted that we played our part in a good game at the top of the league yesterday

so

 

 what is it that we want

 

'playing shit' and winning or playing well and losing

 

you can't hit the manager for winning playing badly than chuck the toys out of the pram if we 'play well' and lose

who do you think he has alienated?

 

more to the point, do you think anybody has been dropped when they could reasonably argue it to be unfair?

Bogdan, Knight, Spearing, Pratley, Lee and N'Gog are all still at the club. 

 

He brought in players to replace Ricketts and Alonso and it was his choice to let Sordell leave on loan.

 

He knew the likes of Davies and Holden were going to be out long term. He's had plenty of time to find a temporary replacement. He tried and failed with Butterfield.

 

This is now his mess.

F and the so called superb tactician LL

 

 

Is LL really supposed to be a good tactician? - if he has any influence over recent events, then I would certainly be doubting that he has any great deal of tactical nouse at all
