Seems a stretch. He only got them promoted (3 times in 5 years) because of the squad he inherited? What about the 2 other promotions over a four year period? No credit due for bringing the likes of Ogbene, Barlaser, Smith, Ihiekwe, Harding, Ladapo etc to the club in his time? I think it's fair to say he has his limitations but promotions aren't a given at any level, certainly not with Rotherham United in a league generally full of 'sleeping giants'. I get that he may not be everybody's cup of tea or even the right man to take us up but at least consider the whole picture, there's certainly more to PW than just luckily inheriting a squad during his time up at Rov'rum.

RoyMac5 Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 (edited) Note he doesn't mention Sibs in his 'speedboats' analogy this time, just NML. Missed this bit.

Tyler Durden Posted August 21, 2023 Share Posted August 21, 2023 1 hour ago, Bris Vegas said: Warne comes across as an average manager. He is a manager that meets expectations rather than exceeds them. I’m pretty sure any manager in League One could have had Derby finishing in the top 8 last season. If he says we don’t have a top 3 squad, then we won’t finish top 3. Good managers exceed expectations. Warne got promoted with Rotherham because he inherited a squad good enough to be promoted. He got relegated every season because he couldn’t get that extra out of them. Rosenior had the same players playing better football and picking up more PPG. We downgraded with Warne. This cones across as extremely churlish and mean spirited. At least give the guy an ounce of credit for 3 promotions.

He's already had his credit for his previous Club, this is like the 'be thankful we have a Club still' meme, when does it run out?

If he’d have said something like “of course it’s good enough to be Top 3” he’d still be criticised. SKRam and Tyler Durden 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He took over a Rotherham side in the Championship. They stayed up the year before in the Championship. Now, I’m not pinning Rotherham’s first relegation on him. But let’s not pretend he took over a mid table League One side and got them promoted. He took over a side who were seemingly slightly better than League One level. It’s like Heckingbottom taking over Sheffield United. Credit they got promoted. But their squad was better than 90% of the Championship so it’s not like he has exceeded expectations.

A poster said he doesn't like Warne because he says the word obviously too many times during interviews, he's been called out for making sarcastic comments, posters have begun to complain that his jokiness during interviews is beginning to grate, he's getting the blame for the crap incoming transfers this summer as it must have been him because they were from Rotherham and so on. It's just really irrational. But still it persists. SKRam, FlyBritishMidland and Caerphilly Ram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s almost as if because we won and there isn’t a defeat to pick apart instead his post-match interview gets picked apart and psycho-analysed.

I admit that I am obsessed about Derby, not sure about actually wearing a cap though that's a bit Warney isn't it? 😄 Gisby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
