Other than the completely extraneous & derogatory comments about the style of play, and putting the blame for any poor results or performances under Rooney (and maybe even Cocu) squarely on Rosenior's shoulders? If the point is to remind people of where we've been as a club that's potentially even worse, because in mentioning his dislike for the style of play under Rosenior he's grouping that in with the bad times. Perhaps that wasn't his intention, but again if he's going to call for people to post in a certain manner he needs to follow his own rules, not use emotive terms to express his own negative opinion! But no, you're right, nothing to see here. And I too write as one who was in favour of giving Liam more time but who now wants to see fans also be patient with Warne!

I suppose "laborious keep-ball" does come across as a bit derogatory, but I think even LR's fans were of the view that, whilst potentially attractive in style, his philosophy in action WAS largely laborious and possession-based because the players were not uniformily comfortable with it and most posters were asking for a bit less of it and a bit more urgency/directness.

Ambivalent - "having mixed feelings or contradictory ideas about something or someone." It's you exactly when it comes to a view about Derby County.

Hmm. I think there was a bit of a pop at LR with all that 'laborious keep ball' stuff. LR was himself a new manager, with a completely new squad, and also worked under Clowes. By all accounts he was pretty close to the full time job and was in talks about it at one point. Did he not deserve the same 'realism' we apparently owe to Warne? If he'd been appointed would the OP still be talking about our 'laborious keep ball' or would he be pretending we were Pep-era Barcelona out of sheer gratitude to David Clowes? I'm sure everyone is hugely grateful to the new owner, and will always be grateful. But they are perfectly entitled to express their views of the team, and manager, on this forum. Whether people are being too negative or expecting too much too soon is one thing. But they don't owe it to the owner to either pretend to believe something they don't, or keep their mouth shut. It's a forum and people rant about the team for the same reason they came out in droves to save the club: because they love it. Because it matters.
