Alph Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 The word "relegated" on his CV shouldn't bother him if A) he backed himself to keep them up then it wouldn't be there at all B) Pretty sure the devil is in the detail. Nobody is going to get his CV through the door and blame the whole season on Rowett It's hilarious blaming fans and chairman. Look at what Birmingham City journalists are saying. He wanted this job while he was there!! And others. Is that their fans fault. What about Burton? He left because he thinks it's a better job. Drop out his arse. He's overrated. What's he done that makes him such a credible manager that will be treated much better by Stoke fans? People talk about Mac being disloyal. He got sacked!! This negative "Klopp" blatantly jumps ship and it's 11 blokes on a message board and a chairman that gave him a new contract fault. He left.

Do you remember you were once at our training ground and described Kubic as a cross between Duncan Edwards and Brian Robson. How I wished we could have got him at the time.
