Rampage Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 The only wahey is down, or so it would appear.Fair play to Steve, could any manager other than Allardyce keep NUFC up? Mel Morris and Paul Clement look like the best people to be in charge of a football club, bar none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that is an interesting point. Not sure how they thought that would end well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Great to see our fans turn on a person who achieved so much for the club as a player and a coach. Very short memories some 'fans'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyinLiverpool Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Those of us that are enjoying every delicious moment of McClaren's fall are not going to be swayed by holier-than-thou ******** about being fickle / having short memories etc, so you're probably better off not bothering.

Pearl Ram Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Does the same over reaction apply to our current owner then G STAR, if McClaren was this great guy you think who deserves all our eternal gratitude, he'd still be here. Our owner didn't amass his success by making poor decisions, he is obviously privy to information we are not and McClaren was dismissed rather quickly don't you think ? There will be a reason for that but one that is not for common consumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerTedd Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 I do wonder, after a season and a half, if he was still living up in the north east, and hadn't thought about putting some permanent roots closer to Derby, is that an indication that he always really saw Derby as the stepping stone to his dream job. For what he did for us as a coach and a manager, I'll always be grateful and I would have been begrudgingly pleased for him if his dream gig had gone well. But, nah, this is too much fun. There's no smoke without fire, he's done something a bit shitty to us, and if karma wants to kick him in the arse for it, and if karma happens to take Newcastle down along with it, then I'm not going to cry myself to sleep over it.

RiddingsRam Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 He came to us and got off too a good start , and I think from there the momentum took him ( at least to the play off final ) and then when things started to get difficult he didn't really have a plan b ! I am grateful in a way I think he gave us a " bit of a leg up " to the level were at now so he deserves some credit ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he is a great guy, just a shame his achievements as a player and number 2 to Jim Smith seem to have been forgotten. Add to that 18 months of entertaining football and it makes some people's reaction seen even more bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure his contribution has been forgotten but his opening speech at Newcastle ( for me ) confirmed his desire to join them in the first instance despite what he said during Newcastle's initial interest. And that's fine, we'd all go for a pay rise if the opportunity arose but I read and indeed bookmarked what he said on joining us and it is quite clear to me the man is full of ****. That written, I respect your view, I just don't think the man is worthy of your loyalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
