rynny Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I was just wondering what everyone thinks about clough's two year reign in charge. Not today is it? Thought it was next week, Hutchings was in charge for forest Green match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Ram Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 listening to radiod erby they said it was so i took on that, my view is that he has been mediocre thus far and the rest of this season will be crucial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex W Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Very pleased so far, club is on a sound footing all thanks to him and we're improving year on year. Include that to playing fantastic football, the likes of which haven't been seen at PP since Jim Smith, and i'd say anyone who was unhappy with him would be a fool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Ram Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 I would say the state our team is in is actually quite unstable at the moment tbh Alex. I wouldn't say we are on a sound footing tbh you take commons and bueno out that side it isn't great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex W Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 You look at the problems Clough had when he took the job, where we are now and how the side is improving year on year, and i'd say we're in a pretty good state currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clough has been excellent so far, people are forgetting that he reduced the wage bill massively while still achieving year on year improvment, including this year so far. keep it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say it is pretty precarious, if commons goes and bueno is going to go back we could have serious problems, porter doesn't look like the player he once was at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds Ram Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 with all due respect if we did much worse then we would ahve been relegated, last season was a disgrace, this season we are playing good football but it could easily fall apart if we aren't careful.

Do you remember the injuries last season? Clough did a hell of a job getting us to finish where we did with all those disruptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds Ram Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 he did, but our position was inflated by 4 places because last day of the season we played cardiff reserves which no-one else had done, last season was shocking tbh, the way we played football and the results Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangerous Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 apart from a 6 match run of very attractive football this season,it has been pretty uninspiring.the board dont help though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we lose Commons this season, things are supposedly looking dodgy for us. Last season we had 14 players out at times, we were playing unfit players and players who were totally off form because we had to. It was damage limitations last season, and we managed our third best finish in ten years. For gods sake give the man some credit YR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Clough has had a hard job to do at a club with huge financial constraints and has undoubtedly made some mistakes, but, on the whole, he's done better than most would have done in the circumstances. I am happy for him to continue building here but he needs some backing from the board. He's proved he can be trusted with DCFC's money. Its time for the board to earn his trust by allowing him to compete in the transfer market. I can't think of another manager who is strong enough to have kept this club together with zero outlay and cutting the wage bill so dramatically. Managers whose only concern is their own C.V. would have walked long ago whinging and crying to the press. The man has got a pair alright and will come good.

Leeds Ram Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 Alex I am sorry but yes he managed to keep us up, however I wouldn't call it a good season, our recent history has been dire, it ahs been seasons of struggle and crap, personally I think people overate the man but that is jsut my opinion.

It was an absolutely amazing acheivment to finish 14th. It wasn't a great season to watch, but it was a brilliant acheivment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
