Lamps walks in and can attract a wealth of quality loanees. Rooney brings Phil Jones to the table? Being pedantic neither had any experience of managing a club before they landed at Derby so why not Rooney playing devils advocate. Not that I'm advocating Rooney, my main point is we've gone done the tried and trusted route and the novice one and realised the same outcomes for both. There's only one constant throughout all of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BondJovi Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I almost feel a trio of Rooney, Mac3 and Rosenior. Probably be a disaster. I have said no to Mac3 as manager, but as a coach or assisstant for one last hurrah.... It might just work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Frank has a high IQ (reportedly) but is that the key to being a decent football manager? I actually think Rooney is a far better prospect than people think, especially with someone like McClaren with him. And on the subject of badges; the EFL do not demand a full licence for new managers - just that they are enrolled on a course so as their acquisition is 'ongoing'. Great! I'm in. #COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ziggyram59 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I for one do not want Rooney as a player-manager I think he would be a disaster, he as no experience, we need a experienced manager. I would prefer someone like Wassall as a caretaker manager for the rest of the season. Feel like we missed our opportunity in not getting Hughton.

While it’s not a given, there is a chance it could go down this route. If Rooney were to be installed, I figured who would be the most likely to come in with authority and experience to back and support Wayne. Big Sam. Given how crazy it would all be, and while I’m not saying I’d be happy with the decision, I actually quite like Big Sam. of course, all hypothetical ...and of course Big Sam has history with Sheikhs...although I think he's better with Fake Sheikhs ?

RadioactiveWaste Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I think the take over makes appointing Rooney less likely. I'd imagine the takeover folks have someone in mind and probably being lined up on the QT. Can't see the takeover team looking at our season and thinking "yup, give it tme" but I don't think they'll be wanting to put Mr Potato head in the job based on his no qualifications and him being a player.

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I've voted McLaren to this made up scenario but I'd rather it was Mac himself. In any case there is absolutely nothing to say that Rooney or anyone else is in the frame for the job do it's a pointless exercise until we know more. ..at which point it becomes super juicy.

Wolfie20 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Definite NO to Rooney being manager in the first instance but if it was I'd go for a member of the Neville family - Tracey! Probably got more of a clue than either of her siblings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NottsRam77 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 The last thing I want is Wayne Rooney as manager we’re in a ducking mess atm and the last thing we need is another wet behind the ears manager adding more dross to this squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 Rooney has absolutely no credentials to manage Derby County. he has been a great player, but we need to bring this arrangement to a conclusion ASAP. I’d settle his contract and let him find another project. His presence undermines any manager whilst he is portrayed as the next manager in waiting, and although qpr was his best performance for a while, it’s just a silly sideshow.

1of4 Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I wouldn't want Rooney to be our next manager. So the poll on who should work alongside him, is one I won't be voting on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBRammette Posted November 6, 2020 Share Posted November 6, 2020 I really cant make my mind up re Rooney. I cant really think of how to put in words but I think my main issue is that he doesnt seem to have given much of himself to us as a club. He just doesnt seem to have any affection for us at all. Half of me thinks its just wish to be private, embarrassment at all the hype when he just wants to play and the other half wonders if he's just not bothered. I know when it came down to it they went to Chelsea but whilst here Jodi and Frank seemed to really get us and the club and I dont think it was false. I want a manager who seems bothered while here even if he does see it as a stepping stone to elsewhere. Am I being daft and am totally wrong?

He needs to go into Kieran Mullins to get his thatch trimmed. Then he may start feeling the love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
