Its certainly not what he's done at his other clubs. He did during his first season and it was great. His second season he slowed it down a bit and stopped players getting forward quickly when we were in possession. The injuries then destroyed the season but Mac's natural caution may stop him from being a great manager rather than a great coach. I hope we see the Mac that took over from Clough rather than the one that started the following season. That's a nagging thought that I'm ignoring. But I'd have happily accepted Clough too to rebuild the walls that I feel have been broken down. Replace a few "experienced" (average) Champ players with some young hungry newbie. I thought we were going in the wrong direction here. I just want us to get back on track and next time we employ a manager again make sure he's read the script. I'm praying Mac learned a few lessons about what worked for him at Derby and what didn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertRam Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Yessssssssssssssssssssssssss Prepared to give him a chance, cant see anyone else who stands out, the players obviously think he's the correct appointment - so there's no negativity here !!

BondJovi Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I'm always sceptical of going back to something that you once enjoyed. Once that air of nostalgia drifts away you are left with a reminder and an impending feeling of what if. However, this just feels right. Sometimes it is just a good fit and McClaren at Derby is that fit. Maybe now that club openness will return and I am pleased Rush has a voice again. Maybe if he goes full bald eagle this time then we will get promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies if that is the case, do you know he didn't want to leave for a fact? If so my opinion would change quite dramatically. It does leave one question though, why when the 'Newcastle thing' came up did he not completely crush it if he so wanted to stay. Not crushing it when he wanted to stay, meant no good was to come to himself, the players, results, the club in general. It was a weird move.

So he re-negotiated with Newcastle and got the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennington Ram Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 For a man paid to talk, Robbie Savage frequently struggles to string together a coherent sentence, so I'm not sure he's massively worth listening to. I think it's a risky appointment and I wasn't happy with the way it ended first time round, but it's not going to made any better by me having a huff about it. I'll give the Mac a chance.

We've just seen a so-called quality manager struggle with a plan B. To be fair, I couldn't care less what division we are in as long as I am entertained. Perhaps you could go and SUPPORT Leicester, cos you don't seem like you support Derby. i supose most of the pages of threads are boring to you also so should we all support leicester ? . we already made a mistake with wolly but some are happy to try again and again with different managers every few months. all i want is stability for the club iv supported all my life. not bowering down to fan reactions and the fans picking who they want as manager ie pearson and now sm again. you might be happy in 2nd tier but a decent manager who is given time would get us up, but you might get more entertainment as 3rd tier when we could win every game 4 nill. when the going gets tough our players go missing. the dressing room wanted sorting not a bunch of muppets crying because they were told what to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers there's a difference in 'having ambitions (to manage Newcastle)', and "wanting to leave" I would like to go around the world, but it doesn't mean I'll chuck everything in and do it immediately. Maybe after he'd finished at Derby, years down the line, he wanted the Newcastle job. 17 minutes ago, RamsPolls said: He wanted to have the Newcastle job originally but then the talks broke down between him and Newcastle so he pledged his loyalty to Derby and then Derby sacked him.

He always speaks sense about us and I get the impression he follows us a bit. Isn't there a program on Radio Derby just after the breakfast show more suited to the other two? Just because they played in the Premiership, it doesn't mean they are all knowing, particularly on Derby County. Shearer will probably see us twice this year, Savage might take in the odd paid T.V game. So w.t.f does it matter to them other than attention seeking.

old tray boy Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 This really shows us the dire lack of good managers in this Country, we have re-hired a failure who could not deliver first time and showed lack of respect for the club and the fans.

lee_derby Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 we brought aston villas rejects they came down and we are still down .we need a manager that praise the players when doing well but can give a kick up the ass when needed. im sick of hearing the players need motivating, what for the last 4 managers and the same players that love creaming the money week in week out and dont care if we win.there supose to be pros. theres more motivation in the academy than some show and it brings the the team down with them. we need a decent caption who can get the players playing when times are hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And just what we need... Excellent coach, will encourage and not berate the players and wants to attack over defending... Too many modern managers like Clement take the 'Mourinho' approach that you set up to not lose... Then work to win from there... Pearson is a proper old school 'people just need a good shouting at' manager... I want my team to go out and try to win games every week... That's what we did under McClaren last time... And yeh, it's not gonna work every week... But for me it sets us in a better place long term than the boring but effective approach we saw under the wee angry Scot last time we went up...

Yep, you'd think with Mels willingness to spend cash of the Club's infrastructure that Mac should be able to get us up there where 'modern methods' are concerned. He's a great coach, now lets hope that the recruitment team are also up to scratch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
