archied Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Well here's a reason , he may not be the sexy long term dream in some people's view ( though may well be even better than some think) but he is very capable of getting the basics right in terms of making his teams solid and building a hard working team ethic and spirit in the same way Nigel was good at and we really need to get back to that starting point to build from again as it's clear we are totally lost now and have destroyed what clough built rather than build on it ,,, get rowett in now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuwtfly Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Would Rowett be the most opinion-splitting appointment of the last 5 years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammed79 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I would feel sorry for Mac but would be happy with Rowett were he to take over. It's a tough decision which I'm glad I don't have to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Tibbs Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 I like Rowett as a person but don't really see the fascination in him being our manager. His CV is very average. Chris Powell has achieved more but I still wouldn't want him either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hintonsboots Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 He did well at Birmingham with limited resources, just like Wagner has done at Huddersfield. With Mel's backing both would be good appointments and make us into a cohesive unit. We are an embarrassment at the moment and as much as I like Steve, planning has already started for next season and I'm afraid he is going to be on his bike.

We're mid table not fighting relegation with injuries to key players to boot. Villa were way below us until recently having spent loads this season, it's only certain half wit pundits that class us as being an embarrassment.

europia Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Regarding any future appointment, it would perhaps be a better reflection of the club to show that they are an employer with some sense of stability and a bit of patience. With that in mind, maybe best to stick with Mac for another season, for better or worse in terms of league position. Then take stock and move on from that situation.

Alph Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Embarrassing is Rotherham We're midtable. And still won more than we've lost. Something that was rare back in the Clough days where we still weren't an embarrasment. As for Rowett... well if you didn't like Mac linked with Newcastle then you need to remember Rowett left Burton for cash strapped Birmingham City. He did alright at Birmingham. That's it. He took them from near the bottom to 10th. Jumping half the league. Sound familiar? He won 42 and lost 32 of his games. The football was not spectacular. Some Brum fans say that's the quality of players while some will say Rowett played dull football. Rowett could come and be a dream. Or many of you could be calling for his head after a bad run. Which is inevitable under most managers. I don't see why Rowett would be different. People talk of "bottling it". He lost in two play off games himself. Also Burton suffered their biggest FL defeat under him. His record at Burton Won 63/Lost 45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having gone a whole season with just one win, people must have short memories if they class this as embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
