    Not the sort of appointment to make if you want to push for promotion again. Thought they'd have gone for an old head or follow the trend for foreign managers.

    Could be inspirational or a complete failure like Gary Neville.
    Odds on the latter.
    Same with Gerard at Rangers.

    Depends if his contacts are good so that he can get good loans in when he needs a leg-up.

    What's happened to the Rams board? It's like a ghost town, we always had great banter with them over the Bodde interest under Paul Jewel, that's some time ago!!....... <laugh>

    Never sure why great players are expected to be great managers. I remember Bobby
    Charlton failing big time at Preston. Mark Lawrenson at Oxford etc. As was mentioned good contacts might help, but money talks in the big league not contacts! Grealish available at 40 million an example! :emoticon-0103-cool:


    <party>Fugging stupid money pal!<party>How can we compete with that?

    Shame to see good players (even a Jack <laugh>) lose their career so early. He had a bright future.
