Ambitious Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 5 minutes ago, admira said: Speak to any Ipswich fan about how dire the football was. He’s stuck in the dark ages, still buying players from Wolves. No thanks. I can't disagree with that, the same reason many of us didn't like Rowett. My point is that rather than dealing with a £35m wage budget, Ipswich were operating on one less than half of that. Rowett was able to go and spend millions on players, including one that would have been a fraction of the cost and probably not even on our radar if not for his loan with Ipswich under McCarthy. McCarthy's big summer signing was a 250k move for Martyn Waghorn - he managed 16 goals. McCarthy definitely has more pros than cons, but yeah, I would be worried about the style of play not improving. I'd also worry about how quickly the relationship with fans would turn.

It's massively important that we play good football. If it's a 'Yes man' then it's important he's saying yes to someone who knows what they're doing. So maybe a DOF is important. I don't envy Mel's situation at the moment - looks like it's an important time for Derby and I hope he pulls something out of the bag. Is this people's balls from your previous post Parsnip?

Gaspode Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I'm worried about myself - I beginning to convince myself that Big Mick may be the best choice - think I'll go for a lie down in a dark room and hope it's all a bad dream.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This suggests he is going elsewhere in some capacity and that will be announced or that they've taken a comparatively large bet on it and it's being looked at. Either way he's not coming. Heard from a mate that we've had an approach accepted to speak to Dean Smith, he wants to speak to Derby but it's all being kept quiet as if he doesn't get or accept the job then they want him to remain at Brentford. May or may not be true - what it does make me realise is that we were very quick to point out that Rowett had requested to speak to Stoke... MM effectively forcing GR's hand and ensuring there was no way back. Cheers Mel ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDeadlySaul Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Obvious choice is Dean Smith, plays nice football and likes youth, sounds perfect for our club. Wouldn't be surprised if we can't attract him though which leaves us with a load of old dinosaurs or taking a huge risk on a young coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That type of management went out after the film Kes. It might have done, but at least the players would understand it. I always laugh when the subs are about to come on and the coach is waving diagrams in front of their face. I bet they are thinking "just let me get a run, kick it and score a goal!"
