Brum sack Lee Clark


Curtains

Recommended Posts

I can remember when he left Huddersfield, a lot of their fans said the team did well in spite of him, not because of him.  Constantly chopping & changing players and switching tactics.  They said most of the success was down to the fact Jordan Rhodes could score for fun in League 1.

 

A lot of Brum fans are saying the same thing, just not the Rhodes bit, they had to make do with convicted rapists :ph34r:

Birmingham could probably do with going down, shipping out all the underachievers, start again with youth players and gain that winning mentality.

 

Must be demoralising to know that you're starting each championship season with not a single hope of promotion and expected to lose a lot of games.

 

From what I've seen of them this season, they have a few handy young players coming through and they need those players to experience winning football. Not rubbish losing hoofball.

 

Teams such as Leicester City, Norwich City, Charlton and Southampton arguably all benefited from dropping down a league and having a clear out. Brum could go the same way.

Forest and Leeds tried the same thing. Not quite the same result, thankfully.

Gary Rowett: Birmingham City in talks with Burton Albion boss

Birmingham City have been given permission by Burton Albion to talk to manager Gary Rowett about replacing sacked Blues boss Lee Clark.

Malcolm Crosby and Richard Beale were in joint caretaker charge forTuesday's 1-0 defeat at Blackburn following Clark's abrupt departure on Monday.

Blues are keen to have a new manager installed in time for the local derby with Wolves at Molineux on 1 November.

Other reported candidates for the role include Mike Phelan and Owen Coyle.

Former Manchester United assistant manager Phelan and Owen Coyle, sacked by Wigan Athletic in December 2013, are out of work and available.
