Scored on his debut v Huddersfield, Gordon Hughes outside right, Alan Hinton outside left, Kevin Hector inside right, John O’Hare inside left, Barker centre forward. All out attack……….jumpers for goal posts, happy days! Kathcairns, Magicman, gfs1ram and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andicis Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Ultimately, we need to be getting promoted either this year, or at the latest next year. The drop in revenue will set us so far behind otherwise. Nothing is a safe bet, but I have more faith in Warne's ability to get us promoted than Rosenior's. kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong, GenBr, r_wilcockson and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuffLuff Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 (edited) Excuse the overlap but this is what we officially have got now. Rosenior is now assistant manager to a head coach, two goalkeeping coaches? Edited September 22, 2022 by TuffLuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I keep reading that we need stability. I also keep reading that a 4 year deal is risky. To me, it looks like David Clowes has taken time to decide exactly what needs to be done and has moved decisively to achieve it. Whether it's the right decision, only time will. If Warne turns out to be a great manager, we will be brilliantly stable. If not, then hopefully Clowes will be the one footing the bill...unlike a certain business ambassador. kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong and Andicis 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yani P Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I will give Warne time before I call him out as a coach whose teams don't play attractive football. He made the best of what he had at Rotherham so assume he decided that style was his best option for success. No reason why he won't advocate attractive attacking football at Derby with the resources he has. DC has clearly had this on the burners for a while hence the speed it moved from rumour to announcement. In many ways I like this feeling of clearing the decks, LR was a great guy and actually did well IMHO building this squad and getting us into a decent league position. But this now draws a line fully under the Morris catastrophe and moves us on from the Cocu, Rooney, LR styles. Looking forward to watching the development.

ramsbottom Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 23 minutes ago, robglosta said: At the end of the day any feelings towards Liam will soon dissipate if we get promoted this season under Warne. It’s really hard to argue with his experience versus that of a novice. I’ve always thought Liam has spoken about the game impeccably but I’ve never been convinced by his ability to really command the respect of senior players (find his approach quite weak and uninspiring in the clips on RTV). That said; he’s been an asset to the club in the seedlings of the post-EFL admin era. Agree with is in part. Although I enjoy his positivity, it didn't seem off the cuff. It's like you could see the media training. As for Warne, only time will tell. Have been watching/reading/listening to stuff on him all morning and he certainly comes across as a progressive coach, and not the hoofball/"funkin get into em!" merchant he's been painted as by some. A few Millers fans have also said their football this season has been a lot better now they haven't got that massive lump Smith to get it up to. So again, I'm cautiously optimistic that we won't see a return to Rowett-Ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a smidge over 2 weeks and we'll see what Warne is about, Port Vale at home circa 27,000+ in PP all expecting a win except for the Vale fans, Warne will have a sleep pattern of a gerbil still running round that wheel, This aint Rotherham, This is a club with expectations, He'd better eat summat and drink summat and not get wobbly on his feet.

Carnero Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I think some of us are guilty of letting our like of Liam Rosenior the man cloud our assessment of Liam Rosenior the manager. If we had appointed, say, Paul Lambert or Aidy Boothroyd or Darren Wassall or Justin Walker, as an interim manager to start the season and had exactly the same performances and results as what we've had this season, would we be saying that this is a harsh decision or would we be saying that it's fair enough given the appointment was only as made as an interim with no promises of getting the permanent gig?

DCFC27 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 I really don’t don’t get this attractive football line. Winning football is always attractive. As long as you score more than the opposite side it really doesn’t matter. In fact, I think I prefer a goal where it goes keeper to striker goal, rather than 30 passes.

Orphanram Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 One thought that has crossed my mind is if Liam had wind of us showing an interest in Warne prior to this week. In his post match interview he made a rather pointed comment about how committed he was in getting us to play a style of football that fits with the traditions of the club and what our fans expect. Was this a bit of a dig at what he knew might be coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Between them the older players have seen busloads of managers and if he didn’t impress them he’d never have got sufficient buy in Also hope the change will reduce the chances of losing some valuable players in January still surprised though - the decision must have been made several weeks ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
