Pearl Ram Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 The recruitment policy hasn’t worked eh ? Nice bit of alienating the new signings Rowett. He needs to think before he opens his trap, everybody else’s fault bar his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cant disagree with that. Basically said due to the funds he had he had to go down certain routes recruitment wise. The managers before splashed wrecklessly and now it has caught up with us. So for gary to improve our league position despite having a small budget should be remembered by the rowett out brigade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He let good players go and replaced them with dross, his choice not the previous management. That should be remembered by the Rowett in brigade.

Abysmal. Rubbish. If we had all the qualities you speak about then with McClaren in charge we would’ve walked into the playoffs last season playing fluid football wouldn’t we? Yet we were miles away and also played crap football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenBr Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Personnel wise he can't do much to make us more attacking. Palmer is the only person who didn't start today who is even remotely attacking in play style, but we seem to play him as a defensive mid half the time. I would rather not ruin the youth players at this point - wait until this train wreck is over and try them next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papahet Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 His post match interview makes no sense. He's had to go down a different route financially, which is fair enough. But what pisses me and others off is wasting the money we do have signing someone like Jerome for over a million, a player who's 31 and sat on the bench offering sod all. How many new deals lately? Pearce, Thorne, Hanson, Keogh, Forsyth - Do you think they'd have taken pay cuts to commit? He brings in Palmer and for whatever reason can't get a game for toffee. He's signed Fozzy to a new deal and only today back in the eleven, sometimes he's not even in the squad. Thorne? Waste of money IMO. Get him gone. Why not use the loan market more appropriately if we are up to our tits with FFP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has a smaller bigger compared to previous Derby managers admittedly, compared to other managers in the league he has spent more and has a bigger budget. His management is the reason why we have failed, one of the better players recruited he don’t even play from the start, is that also down to the budget?

Say a really good fetch-and-carry merchant like that bloke who plays for Cardiff on loan - what's his name? Bison, Byron - something like that. He'd be a decent signing.

Just imagine having one of those but letting him go whilst cocking up the replacement on deadline day.

Bryson doesn’t fit our system, no he doesn’t he can run in a forward direction. I’ll give you Lawrence but not really a Ince replacement to be fair. Huddlelump, give over.

Huddlestone was a bargain so was Davies. It was though. He had the option to keep Russell until the end of the season and lose him for nothing instead of getting a couple of hundred thousand. He said something along the lines of Russell's mind might be on his move and he wouldn't give his full effort. Obviously he's spoke to Russell regularly and knows him, better than us, but I personally don't believe for one second that Russell wouldn't give his all until he left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Poor Rowett. Had it so hard. I bet Huddlestone, Davies and Ledley are on minimum wage. And Lawrence and Jerome were real bargains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
