Despite Snowgate, a good move for Rowett. He will weed out the dross, get them organised for the Championship and have a much bigger budget to improve the squad thanks to the parachute payment. Notwithstanding our views over the Derby postponement he is a good manager and was disgracefully dumped by Birmingham. Direby could be knee deep in financial and playing sh1te next season.
Rowett is going to be listed as one of those revolving championship door managers. In my opinion he is 2nd rate and will never be a success. I wish him all the worst.
I thought he was great a few seasons ago at Brum before he undeservedly got the push - actually wanted him to replace Slade, but times change. Maybe flatters to deceive and is all front. Doesn't inspire me as a "player's manager" and could turn out to be one of those "nearly men" who are only good to a point. Up to him to prove different now with Stoke, his inherited Prem squad of players, and of course their parachute money.
Swansea City are considering creating a technical director role in a bid to improve recruitment following relegation from the Premier League. This will allow Huw the spew to take over the managers job.
