I wish him all the best, comes across as one of the nice guys in football.

Fabrizio Romano now reporting that Rooney to Plymouth is done. I wonder if they’re appointing him because he saved them from relegation last season?

Karl Robinson takes the Salford job, apparently he still has one eye on the Tranmere job.

I'd like to on place record my appreciation of DM.  Yes he was involved partly in our relegation and then fucked up autos and a record points tally but he gave us that 2nd leg and the 120+ minute at Wembley.

We'll never know what close season could have brought but we are where we are.

 

He has my best wishes

Totally agree Skamp.

Hope he stays in tenure long enough to help us with this year's miracle recovery.

Schumacher confirmed at Stoke, hope he crashes as badly as his namesake.

Sterk fans getting all excited as apparently Plymouth to Stoke is the same route a certain dismal ex Wednesday "manager" took

Troy Deeney takes charge at Forest Green

This will be interesting because he's shit on a few managers he's had in that podcast he does with Defoe

How long do you think Ten Hag will be given? They're already 6 points off any sort of Euro spot and what I've seen of them, they're not much better than average.

I watch a lot of them and the problem is very very similar to what we've had over the past 5/6seasons.

Bruno Fernandes is their Barry Bannan

He doesn't have the positional discipline to play as the 10, unlike Bernardo Silva who I think is probably the best player in the PL, and tries to do everything but the rest of the team isn't good enough to carry him.

The parallels are uncanny and I've said for a long time to my Man U supporting mates and work colleagues he should be sold.

Get same reaction  as BB -'best player' 'look at his stats' etc  but it's a team game and he's too selfish to play where he should - as a proper 10 - Sheringhamesque - and if he did Hojlund would have had a hat full. 

They also need to look at the wings. One wide player HAS  to be a provider, can't play both as "cut inside and hit it" inside forwards, and if you are doing that, play Mount as  a false 9 as there's no point having a traditional 9.

Sell Bruno. Get Kimmich and play Greenwood/Mount  off Hojlund as a proper 2. With Pellistri/ Sancho on the  Right and Garnacho / Rashford left - or flog Rashford to PSG and look at the wee Jap at Brighton.

I’m not convinced by Hojlund. I can’t see an obvious strength in him. He’s not quickest, he’s not the strongest, his link up and touch play is not great, and he lacks predatory movement in the 18 yard box. He’s not helped by the utter shite that is playing wide, but, he gets bullied every game.

And Lee Johnson becomes the first manager to be sacked twice this season.

 

Making a living on his severance pay.

 

 

Was it him who we originally wanted as our first new manager under DC, with Carlos as Director of Football or similar?

No that was Mark Cooper. Both sons of managers so probably why you thought of it.

Is it me or does a team seem to sack their manager every time we win?

I'll be honest, not fucking worried about any of them. Way we played yesterday even at 11v11 we don't need to rely on others being shit.

Huddersfield now need to stick with Daz.

No they don't...

Birmingham need to appoint Darren Moore as manager.

Then Huddersfield can appoint Rooney as manager.
