I could be being harsh there of course but team struggling, no sign of the hierarchy, coincidence? You decide. I seem to remember some "fans" threatened Sams family didn't they or something along those lines whenever he made a decision they didn't like. I wouldn't blame him if he did decide to take more of a back seat after that, but I distinctly remember either himself or Mel saying he was taking more of a backseat now to allow Mel to establish himself.

I think that was after Sam sacked Nigel. And I think after Clement Mel said "my decision, ill front up for it" or something to that efrect.

davenportram Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 He was on the radio on Thursday or Friday morning talking about giving away free cereal to I school kids. he got told that one if the kids said "if we et breakfast then we will score goals" the interviewer then asked "should the first team eat more breakfast" instead of laughing at the joke he went on a speech about nutritionists making sure the players eat properly. No mention of sausages either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't find any info on this on the web. Was it well publicised or just rumour about the threats? Also someone earlier mentioned 'the dressing room' incident. What happened?

Derbados Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Theres no reason for Sam to be in the limelight, nor Mel, thats what we have a Manager for. They're probably just getting on with their jobs, making horrendous recruitment decisions (its a joke) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't know about the threat to Rush's family, I despair at times. I do think however someone from the top should have released something to explain our change in policy from the continuity we were told about where any new manager would have to fit in with the existing style to what appears to be happening now.

eddie Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 3 hours ago, sage said: You could also ask what has happened to Mel Morris. It was noticeable on deadline day that neither Morris, Rush or Pearson were on any of the photos of the signed players. It was also noticeable that I think it was around 4 or 5 days before Pearson appeared on the DCFC website to comment on transfers. All very odd. Damned if they do, damned if they don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridgford Ram Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 I liked Sam Rush, he was the face of Derby when everything was perfect. We made good signings, we played well, we scored goals, the relationship with the fans was great and it was great to be a Derby fan. A lot has changed since then and very little for the better.

I thought it might have been one of the breakfast meetings where it was mentioned - see page 2 of the thread below. Perhaps not quite threatened after reading it again, but the way he was treated by some of our fans after Cloughs sacking scarred them apparently - some of our "fans" treated him in a disgusting manner at the time. Eddie also mentions that Mel felt the need to take the spotlight/blame for Clements dismissal, as it was his decision. Tony the "dressing room" incident is where Mel decided to enter the dressing room after the Reading home game - again you will find more details in the below thread.

trevor1946 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Sam Rush being quiet took a long time to come,and long may it continue,on footballing matters. Clough-4 years--Rush with the next level 3 years---Pearson 8 matches,seems unfair to me . Time for comments in May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammieib Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Absolutely no need for them to be saying anything in the media. What's the obsession with wanting to hear from them. Say Sam comes out and says "we need to score more", this will almost certainly be interpreted as "Sam isn't supporting Pearson" Keep working hard and hope for a turnaround on the pitch.
