The way you'd normally do that is by having the DoF heavily involved in appointing the manager/head-coach. So you simply don't appoint a manager that doesn't set the team up how you want it to be.  Obviously that's not going to work very well here (at the moment anyway...) because we already have a manager in place, and I can't imagine installing a DoF over his head (who wants something radically different to what Warne wants) is going to go down well.

I think you may be spot on with your thoughts i was thinking the same,which will paper over the cracks for another week 

This is a very small sample size. 5 of us who go home and away regularly. Never boo, get behind the team, quite good vocal support. Well past our first flush of youth! 😉
We were 4 - 1 in favour of his appointment (me being the 1 against) and stayed that way right through last season. 
Pre-season we thought we'd be flying, but the rest of us have become very disillusioned already and I'd say we are less "Warne out" than "it would be a relief if it did happen". 
What Warne talks about isn't what we are seeing. His negative mindset, lack of in-game management and ability to react to the opposition frustrates us. I'd say if we were forced into a vote we'd all vote out. 
I think @BondJovi's last paragraph for me sums up exactly how we are feeling. There's no growth.
If it is true that Clowes cannot afford to sack him, then I think he needs to sit down and have a serious talk with him about changing his approach to the game. An owner straying into onfield management is dangerous territory as we know to our cost, but what is the alternative at this stage?

For what it is worth. The players have to take some responsibility. 
Everyone saying we aren't playing them in positions that suit their style of play is fine, I get that.
However most people would agree that most of our players are or in paper at a standard above this league.
So why aren't they playing like it? Even if they aren't in their favoured positions they should still be able to play football.  So why, when they are out of position,  do they lose the ability to pass, control the ball, read the game?

Extenuating circumstances?
Oh come off it. The above applied to Cocu, Rooney, Rosenior. Warne is managing in the best situation since Lampard. Probably even before then.
This is an ideal situation for any manager to build the club the way he wants. Are fans really in the wrong for expecting much better from a supposed promotion expert in this league.
This should be an exciting time for the club and we are on the brink of losing all the goodwill. There are many posters on here whose footballing opinion I greatly respect and I don't see much love for Warne. 
Clowes gave the 4 year contract because he believed Warne would grow with the club, that Warne would step up. The only thing I see is a man struggling to handle the situation, the size of club, the pressure the expectation brings. I don't believe he can shake the shackles of being an underdog.

We are watching teams with worse players than us playing better football than us. 
 
It isn’t entitled to expect our performances to match our budget. 
 
How many league 1 clubs could lose their right backs to injury and go and pick up a guy who according to his former managers shouldn’t be playing in league 1? 
 
This team has been available for a short run of games now: 
                   Wildsmith 
Nyambe Nelson Cash Forsyth 
                   Bird Fornah 
       Barkhuizen Sibley NML 
                   Waghorn 
 
At this level the team above should be dominating against all but the very top top teams. The team above is also capable of playing decent football. 
 
These players are also capable of taking more than 1 point from Cheltenham and Shrewsbury.
 
I just want to see a manager getting the best out of the players at his disposal.  

Rule 13.2 of the EFL handbook states that clubs must register their pitch dimensions at the start of the season and these can only be altered during the season with the EFL’s written consent which will be only be given in exceptional circumstances.
Maybe it was different in Jim Smith’s time.

It’s hardly supporting the team if fans spend most of the game in the concourse but the real problem is how some behave when they’re in the stand. That’s not telling folk how to be a fan it’s just asking them to behave like a reasonable human being.

That’s what happens when you mingle with the home supporters. 😀

A bit early to hit the bottle isn’t it? 😀

This is a perfect example of when I’d like to see retrospective punishment for blatant diving. 
 
As it happened, it didn’t impact the game and despite how woeful the referee was we can blame him for the result but, this sort of thing really needs to be stamped out.

Hate to say it? You’re kidding no one. 😀

Well hopefully they will have a promotion  to celebrate this season or next! I dont think fans are turning on Clowes - if so they are not fans

You had me fooled. I know Leeds take more fans to away games than any other team on the planet so I assumed they’d now infiltrated the Derby ranks 😀. That would explain the disgusting behaviour by some of our number.

I’d never accuse anyone of such a crime on this forum. Personal abuse is a breach of the rules isn’t it. 😀

Why would there be a break clause? We approached Warne who was doing well at another club, the negotiations would largely have been favourable for him, I can't see any reason why he would agree to that. He'll get a substantial pay out if fired.

Fair play, I do hear that Forest and Leeds fans are incredibly positive about the job Paul Warne is doing here.
