SuperDerbySuperRams Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 John Percy said he was an early front runner. So he must have been considered. Whether it has got to a stage on him staying at Morley Hayes, I don't know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIWY Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Given the choice of British managers without a club right now I think McClaren is the best option. We could do worse than McClaren, at least we know we will play good football and he understands the Derby Way, which I think is really important now in the eyes of Mel Morris. Alternatively we could look abroad for a manager, which I wouldn't be so opposed to. Maybe I'm being too ambitious but isn't the old Villarreal manager, Marcelino, currentry without a job?

Curtains Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'd be ok with McClaren back if he said he was committed for 3 years and honored that agreement. My only gripe with him was perceived loyalty. So it's on the cards then or is this just all rubbish talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only way he could affect change was to throw more forwards on. No thanks SM. pretty unintelligent post considering that a) by the time we realised a plan B was needed, the transfer window had shut, and b) Pearson's spell has just proven this lot incapable of adapting to such a plan. Sorry if that sounds insulting, but it seems you're throwing comments out without thinking logically about them! 27 minutes ago, TroyDyer said: You fancy him. Who doesn't?

Carnero Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I'd welcome him back as long as he shaves off "Tufty Island" as a gesture of goodwill/apology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this says a lot. http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/mel-morris-on-the-unity-derby-county-had-under-steve-mcclaren/story-29801255-detail/story.html Basically, McClaren can have the job if he makes promises and clears the air, and sticks to them promises. For me, that conversation should be between Morris and McClaren, cos I think McClaren knew Morris wanted him gone and that is perhaps as much to blame as the Newcastle thing for the collapse.

Totally agree, and would happily have him back. However, there will be a number of Derby fans who will question his loyalty right from the get go. That's what makes me think MM won't go for him. Powell an easier, less controversial option. Like I said though, I'd happily have him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
