David Kelly 1217 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Won't happen if Derby get promoted but in fairness, he's better than Pardew.As has already been said, we'll be looking at him if he fails to get promotion with Derby. Fucking hiliarious that's what we'd be banking on. No lads we don't want to try and sign a manager who may be able to win things, what we want is to put the bloke who puts out the cones in til the end of the season and then appoint someone who's just failled at their last job! Fucking genius. Reading Moncur's shite about how Carver will have the team organised is fucking laughable. He couldn't help Pardew get us organised (we've looked anything but organised for the majority of the last three seasons) and now we're supposed to believe he can do it on his own? Do me a fucking favour Bob. Moncur might have been the last captain to win anything for us but his opinions are fucking worthless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 A worse decision that when Blackburn appointed Steve Kean.

If we wanted to get a manager we'd have done so and them saying well get one in the summer is bollocks. But we're definitely not getting a manager, they've repeatedly stated it's a head coach role. I wouldn't expect a British manager to take that role (other than McClaren) and if that's the case I'm optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trophyshy 7066 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 The £3.5m compensation may give Ashley the idea to go for a young promising manager with the hope that another club will come in and offer us a fuckload of money for his services. "The club aims to maximise its commercial revenues".  Maybe we need a Head Coach Academy? Balance Sheet School? Ruthless Capitalism Cathcuntery?

If they really wanted Mclaren they'd have gone and got him. No chance he'd have rejected an approach, him saying he's got a job to do at Derby is lip service, every manager does that.

If they really wanted Mclaren they'd have gone and got him. No chance he'd have rejected an approach, him saying he's got a job to do at Derby is lip service, every manager does that.  Such an easy thing to say though isn't it? Even if we do get Garde or De Boer or whomever, if they do take us further than Pardew did you can say they're lucky, if they don't you're right.  Also, McClaren not coming now probably has more to do with having to pay to break his contract at Derby and we're not sufficiently attractive to him to break up with his current squeeze. Put it this way  Say he stays at Derby, gets them to the playoffs but they fall at the last because they finished 3rd and the team who finished 5th just came off a 6 game winning streak in the normal season and have that momentum. His reputation remains strong and he could either stay at Derby or accept one of the many Premier League jobs that'd open up to him (basically anyone who just manages to stay up).  Or  He joins Newcastle and keeps us up, well that's probably what's going to happen anyway. He knows that his reputation isn't going to get a bump by taking us to 10th every season.  Now, Garde, De Boer or Tuchel all know that getting us to 10th is going to improve their stock, they're all used to operating under a DoF and so that facet of the deal won't bother them too much.

ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 FFS, rename him the Goldfish please. This "we'll get someone good in summer" shite is just like the senior striker we were definitely going to get last summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 If they'd already agreed for someone to take over in the summer, fair enough. They have, in their words, deferred looking until the summer - couple this with mouthpiece Moncur already suggesting Carver could go beyond summer. It's obvious what's coming. 16 interim games softens us up so that when he's appointed (provided he stays up) the fury that would have been there isn't and any that is dies down over the summer break. Anybody that thinks we're waiting until this summer to get a respectable coach in is a bit of a tit imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Carr's Gloves 3788 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I confidently predict we will either get relegated or in 5 games time when the valiant point against Burley which marked the high point of Carvers career is but a dim and distant mempry they will panic buy a coach who will turn out to be total dogshit.

ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Last year we were promised big summer spending in the summer after Cabaye's sale at around renewal time. What was our net spend? This time it's the promise of a new boss. And some still lap it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Its Carver either way you look at it, if we stay up he'll get it & if we get relegated he'll get it because you can forget about Garde,De Boer, & co coming to a champioship club.

Alex 34719 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 As much as I dislike him and his vision for the club I try to look at it from Ashley's point of view. Keeping Carver until the end of the season when relegation is unlikely (we're 8 points clear of the drop zone and most relegated teams average less than a point a game over the course of season) makes sense as it saves money. Appointing Carver full-time come the summer makes no sense at all as it massively jeopardises the club's Premier League status next season, which in turn would cost Ashley a lot of money.

Rayvin 5151 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 (edited) As Koeman has apparently claimed though, managers don't need time to find their feet. Even Pulis said he'd only need 4 games. Edited January 27, 2015 by Rayvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
