    I'd argue it's as much his brother, Simon, that has the knack for spotting players.
    Nige can build a team though. Derby got to the play-offs after him (but he did completely turn the squad around), Sheff Utd a double promotion to the Prem with mostly the same team that he built (I thought they were harsh to get rid of him after taking them from the relegation zone to the play offs), he got Burton into the Championship, took Mansfield from the edge of the L2 relegation zone to the play-off final in 6 months... not bad to have on your CV however you look at it!

    We have to offer Rosenior first refusal, he might not be the right long term option, however given the timing of all this we are left with little choice.
    There will be a list of targets which he will have been involved with the discussion, likewise renewals with those that are expiring, a plan going forward and we have to stick to that as much as we can.
    We don’t have the time to create a new owner vision for the future and conduct a thorough interview process.
    Bring players in, give us a squad to compete and use this season to get appointments behind the scenes right and review the first team management next summer.
    Oh and please, please please no Nigel Clough, it’s been a rough year as it is, a return of Nigel would destroy the remaining bits of my soul right now. Thankfully he hasn’t spoken that fondly of his time at Derby, I hope that grudge he has is as strong as ever.

    Would be a great shout if we were going to go with someone completely new.
    Still the only manager to win a World Cup (at any age group) with England other than Sir Alf (conveniently forgetting the guy currently managing F*rest who did it with the U17s too ?).

    knows young talent, will have contacts (at a level that may benefit us) and did miracles within a short space of time at Carlisle

    Justin Walker got our academy side into Europe giving top academies such as Borussia Dortmund a good game... A management team of Rosenior, Walker (as assistant), Davies (as player-coach) and Pearcey (as GK coach) would be a good mix.

    Anyone suggesting Paul Cook has obviously not watched Chesterfield this season He has turned a decent side challenging for promotion into a shambolic outfit that were booed off by their own fans in their last away game of the regular season at Torquay.

    I am willing to bet Wayne wanted out but not before the club was safe. At the same time the Admins kept him to save money and attract bidders. I bet his is a very interesting tale. I’d be surprised now if we kept any of last seasons warriors, Curtis apart and even that’s not a dead cert. Oh well. DCFC is a greater thing than any player, legend, manager. 
     
    good luck Wayne. Thank you for being a decent bloke. ?
