Can't help thinking though that he's another Rowett that would do something stupid like bench Vydra in a play off semi for a dwarf just to show what a genius he is.

He was good at buying players, but not much else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not rated on this forum but is elsewhere Last time we had Clough he got us to be a stable mid table side in nearly 4 seasons. As soon as a manger with nous came in the same players showed they were top 3 material. Clough will not have 3-4 seasons to get us solid again, we’re not that bad. I also don’t think he’s that good a coach... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or a random person with a sexy name, but I would like Dean Smith, if we gear our management structure like Brentford What is the deal with Laudrup? I know he managed Swansea but not much beyond that ... not a name I have seen come up much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CLOUGH1971-72 Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Mel needs to say sorry for what went on before between you and Sam rush. How right was nigel about rush by the way. Anyway nige here’s a 5 year deal and get on with it. Do your thing. I’ll back you financially when needed. See you all in the premiership in a few years. The Clough legend lives on at derby. I just wrote that that in the other thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ossieram Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Who ever comes in had best make sure the players do the job and have us 10 points clear by Xmas, because looking at the poll results so far, they'll be in for a rough ride by those that votes for one of the others.

DCFCMANIFOLD Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 This is a bit out there but I would not be averse to looking at the Cowley brothers from Lincoln city. Assuming we are prepared to go for someone different and look down the order somewhat it may not be a bad shout: they have consistently punched above their weight, won promotion, a cup and beaten several championship sides with a team that until recently was out of the football league. The logic is that they seem to work well within the means that they are given, would be relatively cheap compared to someone off the usual conveyorbelt, and would be attacking and expansive (since one needs to look no further than League One and below for goals goals goals) ... Just a thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully a true Ram will back the manager even if it isn't their first choice. At least until September anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let's be realistic, we have far too many on here that can't wait for people to fail so they can tell us all how they told us so, and there are others just waiting for failure to have another pop at Mel.

I've not paid them any attention apart from the cup run last year, where they did use the big man up front and played from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have Clough back, as a scout, sniffed out a few good players, couldn’t manage them but leave that to someone who can and he’ll do a good job.

Nowhere near good enough to manage a club like ours - they are L1/L2 level and we’d get more hoofball rubbish if they came. Mel should not be fooled into going for the usual suspects like McCarthy, Pardew etc. Don’t think Dean Smith would work either as he manages to a specific model at Brentford. It’s going to be interesting to see how it pans out but Mel really needs to get this right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warren Hobhead Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Can someone explain the Warburton love? I look at him and can’t see anything there. From that list I would take Simpson or a gamble with Lampard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
