Ambitious Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 1 minute ago, MuespachRam said: He has made the club a laughing stock. Not really. If we win promotion this season, playing good football at the same time, then you have to give him credit. What we're doing now is purely predicting what could happen. Under Clement, we were boring, slow and created scraps. Nevertheless we grinded out enough wins to get us into the top six. The football was uninspiring and it would have continued in the same vein until something stopped it. Under Wassall, we have been more exciting and the attacking football is all but back. Nevertheless, we seem incredibly naive and Rotherham wasn't exactly a shock - especially when we conceded the first. Under Wassall & Redknapp? Who knows, it remains to be seen. If we win eight of our last nine games and finish the season as the form team then we will stand a good chance at being a Premier League side next season. it's nine games for both Wassall and Redknapp to put some sort of plan together in order to help us achieve something none of us at the minute expect. I'm willing to put all my faith in them, purely because we don't have a choice. I wouldn't have picked him, but at the same time we don't know the full story. I've seen cries for Rodgers, Moyes, Pearson...etc but these are probably waiting to see what's available in the summer before taking a, what would be in their opinion, backward step to Derby County from their previous roles. For what it's worth, I'd bank on him not being here next season. Promoted or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway Eddie, what your view on our latest appointment ? Come on, you all know my answer to that. Outwardly, he gets my 100% support from the day he is appointed until the day he leaves. Inwardly, that's for me to know and for you to speculate upon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodley Ram Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 I like this am I the only one. I think he would be excellent great at tactics and great for motivation, will take all of the heat off DW, excellent idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 This is brilliant. No idea how it's going to work or what will happen next but it's a move that's so utterly unexpected it might just be a masterstroke. 'Arry loves Jim TBE so there's a karmic circularity there. I think I read that in the playoff final he was talked our of the sub he was proposing by the captain Clint Hill so let's be careful in our expectations of his expertise in substitutions. How on earth have he and Mel become friends? I wouldn't have thought their paths would naturally cross. If the hoddle plus 'array stories have any truth in them then that would be more concerning. As has been noted elsewhere 'arrys commercial transfer dealings have been hit and miss over the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowram Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 Given his record in play-off finals this appears to be an eminently sensible move by a Chief Executive and owner who thus far have been far from sensible. Waffle clearly isn't up to the job. I wonder whether Harry will bring his dog who not only is his financial adviser but also probably knows more about football too.

Rev Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 For the 1st time in ages, I'd like to say well done Mel, Sam and the rest. Seen the problem, and have taken steps to address it by appointing just about the best available person to sort it out. Wassall can coach a performance, we saw that Saturday for 80 mins, now he can learn off one of the very best English managers of the last 20 years. We get the benefit of Arry's wisdom now, and Wass gets the benefit going forward beyond this season. Oh, and if it's true that Wassall asked for this appointment, that's a true sign of character , to ask for help when needed, and recognise your own shortcomings takes a truly strong man indeed.
