I think Sam has burnt bridges with Clough and Mel has burnt bridges with McClaren, so it won't happen! lol Clough director of football, McClaren head coach!

BranstonRam Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Makes me laugh reading "we are derby county we can have who we want" would any/many managers wish to come to a club where the chairman gives the manager a few games then decides to jump up and step in. Give it Powell and let him build something instead of making him manager till the end of the season then doing another Witch hunt for another manager. If Powell does succeed in getting the job, I feel he needs a decent right hand man. Step up Paul Simpson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I'd like to see Powell being given until Christmas. No massive pressure, see how he does, then reassess. If we're thriving under Powell then give him the job. If not, see who's available. I'm glad Pearson's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I think Rowett adapts his style to the players he has available. He'd be a good choice. Bruce is proven and I dont think he would rip things up. Wouldn't be surprised if he goes to England now. I wanted Monk, think it will be difficult to get him now from Leeds. If McClaren apologised and fully committed in blood to Derby id have him back in a heartbeat! Unlikely though. I was happy with Pearson appointment, he was the outstanding candidate available. I'm surprised it's worked out like this, but we are quickly becoming more of a joke than the clowns in West Bridgford! Clement was a bad appointment, his horrendous spending got us here, we were only top at Christmas due to Chris Martin, and occasional performances from Ince and Butterfield, there was no pattern of play, no plan, we relied on individuals and the wheels quickly fell off. The next appointment needs to be right. My view, for some continuity at least, I think we should give Powell a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwram1973 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Rowett would be an uninspiring signing imo. BUT if we did get him he would get 100% of my support. The more I think about it the more I like the idea of Powell getting a crack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kernow Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Rowett took over a seriously bad Birmingham side. They were almost certain for relegation, absolutely dreadful. He's come in and turned them around dramatically when players like Ryan Shotton are their 'bigger' signings. He would be a decent appointment, but I reckon we'll just go with Powell for now.

BathRam72 Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Rowett? Hmm. Not sure. Hasn't really lit up the managerial world. Is this just another, "fan favourite choice?". However I will give him 100% of my support just as I have all the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LazloW Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I'd be fairly happy with either Chris or Rowett (i'd stick with Chris because i really like the bloke). Its also being reported by the Birmingham local press, but they might've got,it fom the Sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than an outright dismissal of Pearson, the club could be going along the route of suspension, followed by an investigation and finally dismissal on the grounds of gross misconduct. The clear advantage of the latter, and maybe the driving force behind the course of action, is the potential financial saving which would help any FFP considerations. Or is given a warning as to his future conduct.

Wassall Although I like the man, I have reservations like a few others about his footballing philosophy being the right fit. It's possible he could adapt to fit the squad or vice versa but I'd prefer going for someone we know for sure has a philosophy likely to get the most out the squad. Right now though I think we might struggle to attract better candidates (ones that might have joined in the summer) and I do wonder if it's worth, provided he can keep us steady, just letting Powell see it out until the right man comes available (obviously if Powell is looking good sign him up).
