Obviously he didn't tell anyone until he had told the club. That explains why there were no leaks. It was straight out of the blue. But usually you would tell the players first. https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/teams/derby-county/12640002/curtis-davies-rooney-may-have-left-to-protect-reputation Caerphilly Ram and Rammy03 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes chances of going straight back up with CK, Stretford and Rooney looked really good.

Andicis Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 I suspect Rooney may not find another job quite so forgiving as we have been. The first year was pretty appalling football, and who really knows with the second year? Derby as a club had 0 expectations of this season, and Rooney definitely benefitted from that. How will he fare when instead of being clapped off after a humiliating away defeat, they get jeered off? Completely different kind of pressure.

SillyBilly Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 6 hours ago, Tyler Durden said: If that's true then it's total hypocrisy from Mr Rooney after moaning like a drain about claiming he wasn't told by Morris about certain vital developments at the club. Not really, there are protocols. I've bought and sold businesses where people who have worked for the business for X years have subsequently bitten at me because they didn't find out until it was done and sealed. You can't and don't say anything until something is finalised with the person/parties it needs to be finalised with. In this case Rooney and the administrators would have a conversation before anybody else. Once that has happened then guaranteed the news will leak within minutes to just about everybody and you've lost the opportunity to inform on your own terms.

If nothing else I admire your predictability. Does watching a game on TV for example not hold the same weight as watching it live, is your opinion not allowed the same magnitude if you're watching a game at home compared to someone at the stadium? I can't see the point you're trying to make quite honestly. I've watched enough games over the last 2 seasons to form my own balanced judgement thankyou very much. Not going to respond back to any further comms on this matter as not getting dragged into another debate with you regards what a "real" supporter is.

I suppose it may be balanced by having a better squad where ever he ends up. But with our limited resources and his inexperience I was relatively happy about our results last season. I was thinking that many (myself included) would expect better win stats this season. Maybe Curtis was right in his interview on Talksport when he said perhaps Rooney left to protect his reputation (as well as other obvious reasons)?

Like all sports you can’t beat live games for the atmosphere, but as for analysis of Rooney’s tactics you probably get a better idea on Sky sports with the endless replays and mass punditry.

It was pretty much a free hit at Derby and, short of total humiliation in terms of results, he couldn’t lose. He clearly has some unexpected man management skills when faced with adversity but is unproven as a football manager. He may have done well with us or he may not.
