Gritstone Ram Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 There could be other reasons behind this. People on the outside thought we were made to get rid of clement. Us that watched us change from a free flowing goal scoring team into a boring 1 - 0 win team knew that isn't what we're about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Rowett's stock will have risen after doing a more than reasonable job for Birmingham, an owner with any sense will have noted that and he will be more sought after than an also ran when clubs part with their current manager if you know what I mean.

ram59 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I think some managers will be looking over their shoulder now. One chairman is bound to snap up Rowett while they can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We didn't have a clue what happened behind the curtains between Mel and PC. About their new owner's and Rowett's relationship even less so.

CWC1983 Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Must admit I wanted him here after Clement went last year. The team he put out at Derby that beat us 3 0 last season played a mixture of good football but with a bit of nastiness. The season before he was going mental on the touchline at half time, at Russell I think. I thought he might toughen us up. As people are saying, he will find a job elsewhere.

RIMBAUD Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 They've probably done him a favour in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I'd get him in here now, even though it would be awkward, before someone else snaps him up. Not nice to see someone sacked to make way for him, but we need to be ruthless if we want to improve. Thanks for all you've done Ramage, but it's time to step aside!

Van der MoodHoover Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 There was a bluenose on the talksport phonein tonight who declared himself "over the moon"" with this decision. He stated 2 reasons. ...... 1. The dour nature of the football. 1-0 rowett being quoted. 2. His marque signings have not worked out. There are a couple of 1.5m buys that are so poor they are not in the team. All in all sounds a bit clough -esque to me (nigel not st Brian ).

Kernow Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 In Birmingham City's club statement about sacking Rowett they stated that they will have a strategic plan with a long-term view. They've just hired Zola who has had 5 previous jobs since 2008 with his longest time at one club being a year and 8 months... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G STAR RAM Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Shows the arrogance of these people when they make statements like 'the fans need to trust us'. Do they understand what has happened to Birmingham in the last few years? Rather than just wanting fans to trust them why don't the put some proper facts and reasons why they thought it was appropriate to replace Rowett.

Daz_The_Ram Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 This will only go one way ... with Birmingham City going down the toilet very quickly. Zola ... fabulous player, rank average manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
