Don't think you can ever say such and such a player will definitely make a great coach/manager till they get some sort of chance. But by the way Curtis talks and plays I just feel he would learn a lot working under an experienced manager and would have something to give. Would also give us the chance to get a better idea of his coaching ability. Really hope he gets offered a new deal at the club and if we can do this wouldn't mind seeing him in some sort of coaching role (not sure if that's the case if Rooney's still in charge though). Just my opinion anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion anyway. Of course, but I just don't think we're in the position right now to be giving people chances. Fair enough if we were expecting to comfortably finish mid table, but not with the current squad and state of the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Transport police wouldn’t get involved in this it would be greater Manchester police, you’d think lawyers would know this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I really like Curtis but this situation would need a manager with at least some experience. That’s assuming Rooney’s going anywhere which still doesn’t seem likely at present.

BramcoteRam84 Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 The only serious questions Rooney has to answer here are to Coleen. It’s a matter for them to resolve. Sunday presumably was a day off, therefore his actions on Saturday night have absolutely no bearing on his job as Derby manager. Yes it isn’t great for someone who a similar age to myself (not nearly 40 as being reported!! I’m closer than he is but still have 3 years!!) and has a young family to put himself in that position. My wife would be extremely bothered if I did the same but my work wouldn’t care as it’s in personal time, only time work would care is if it was on a work night and I would be unfit to do my job the next morning. Most employers would be the same, why should this be any different. As for setting an example to the players - he doesn’t play football any more does he so why does it matter what he’s doing on a Saturday night. Yes he will get banter but he can quickly turn that if the players are not putting the effort in. angieram, RadioactiveWaste, MickD and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if true I’d have some sympathy, although why on earth a married man who’d just been lecturing on pride and dignity would put themselves in that position is beyond me! The pictures show naivety and are not a good example to the players but I think we should judge Wayne on his results and team performances on the pitch ?

Yes he will get banter but he can quickly turn that if the players are not putting the effort in. Well lots of fans don't want John Terry because of antics that are ancient history. Wayne is getting caught out again and again and this time almost whilst he is away on work business. I'm not overly interested in the morality, it's just the attitude he has to being a professional. Surely, at the end of the game they talked about being professional about warm-downs, about thinking about the game and things to improve... And as a manager I would expect his part in that would be him working with the other coaches, looking at the videos /reviewing the game, contacting people to enquire about players, reviewing the tactics etc.. All you ever hear about is that it's a 24-7 job being a manager. Apologies if I'm wrong, but the perception I'm left with is he dismissed the players, grumbled to the press, said 'off to bed' to the other coaches.. and then 'got on it' with some mates, presumably explaining away that he wouldn't be home as he would be working late into the night. No one says he can't go for a meal, a few beers to relax but if he hasn't learned yet that if he doesn't and instead ends up in slightly compromised situations its going to be news, then when will he? If he was my mate, I would probably laugh and say he was an idiot.. but he's not, he's the highly paid figurehead of the club I have supported for 40 years and he did a pretty poor job on the pitch, has done a terrible job from the sidelines and now is getting us press for the wrong reasons, it's just portrays a really disappointing attitude for me.

People didn’t want Terry because of the Anton Ferdinand incident, not anything else. At the end of the day he’s human, it’s bloody stressful managing this club right now. He did nothing wrong in terms of his role and responsibilities to the club in my opinion and personally I think some who want him gone will use this to justify their point and wrongly IMO. If the players want him gone then they’ll do the same, but I would argue that would reflect badly on the players as individuals. He only makes it tougher for himself if he doesn’t command the respect and loyalty of the players right now. We will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again would any club be surprised if they'd left us, they'd not need an excuse to be believed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People close to Rooney have confirmed to Sky Sports News that the matter has now been handed over to Greater Manchester Police, who have yet to comment."
