Tyler Durden Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) To paraphrase Trainspotting the appointment of Lampard was merely a blip on an otherwise uninterrupted downward trajectory Edited December 15, 2021 by Tyler Durden IslandExile, europia, Chester40 and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And surely he's just as 'disloyal' as Lampard?! Don’t see it that way, he was backroom staff to FL and “don’t call me Shirley” ?

It was meant a little tongue in cheek, we all know Gibson has a lob on for everything DCFC and not the other way around. Warnock has form in the Championship & an axe to grind following his dismissal and the manner in which he was informed. A driven focused Warnock is a dangerous thing and could be this generations Jim Smith IslandExile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jourdan Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 If Rooney goes to Everton, I wish him luck. He will need it. People bemoan the quality of the players he is working with here, but what would be different at Everton? For a club of Everton’s size and ambition, the squad is in a really poor state. It’s one bad appointment from being in the bottom three. Rooney would be on a hiding to nothing. It’s like trying to run before you can even crawl.

Wouldn't mind a bit of that at the minute. IslandExile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jono Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 1 hour ago, Ted McMinn Football Genius said: His loyalty to DCFC, his permanent signings for DCFC were woeful except Shinnie (whom he never managed) Lets not be fooled, the football during the period when Mason Mount was unavailable was dreadful. We achieved what we did under him due to the loan signings and nothing else. He was in my opinion the beginning of the whole mess we find ourselves in, poor signings and sheer poor management. The only good thing from that era was Jody Morris, he is the brains in the outfit and carried himself with dignity whereas FL left us hanging before dropping us right in the ? There is truth in the Mount / loans point but he didn’t have any cards either .. the money was sticky even then. Lampard just played his best card .. I have a squad of medium quality, little or no money .. but I do have my name and can get some special sparks in to give this team a lift. He did bring academy players in too. Nope, no problem with Lamps .. he was what he was and we had the usual ups and downs given our resources. Also seemed like a half decent bloke.

Don’t know if that was directed at my post re Morris on Twitter but I based my suggestion he may be worthy of consideration due to his work with the Chelsea youth team where he was quite impressive and no doubt noted by Lampard, who, starting out on his first managerial venture wanted an astute coach along side him. Re Twitter, I’ve seen two examples of his tweets (one, “once a Ram”...) which suggested to me (rightly or wrongly) he still has a passing interest in the club and I like that thought.

uttoxram75 Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 The media will always link Wayne Rooney with other jobs just for the clicks. Also, the view from outside is that he is doing a great job in the most difficult circumstances any manager could possibly have to cope with, let alone a rookie manager. A view shared by many of us as well. The proof is in the brick walls that the team are running through every match for him. jono, RamontheMoor, Hector was the best and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retro_RAM Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 (edited) Rooney is currently in a no loss situation, we get relegated it was to be expected, if we stay up he will be a club legend, a miracle worker. That said, it's just media clickbait rubbish, last month was Man Utd, this month Everton any guesses for Januarys linked club? I like Rooney but should he go would it bother me? Not really, slight disappointment but if we could get Curtis Davis in as player/manager should that happen, along with the compensation we would receive from Everton it might actually work out well for us.
