Promoted from League 1: Portsmouth, Derby County, Oxford United I don’t think any of them have the backing or set up to do an Ipswich, which, if we remain in the Championship helps another promotion push.

Absolute frauds as managers, living on their fame and playing career. I thought Rooney made a decent pundit a few weeks ago when I heard him on TV, he should focus on that and stay the fuck away from managing clubs.

He actually stood up to some crazy Roy Keane rant, rather than what the pundits usually do and just nod-and-agree with him. It was only a fleeting watch so he may not be amazing, but I did like the cut of his jib. I think I read he's going to be a pundit at the Euro's on one of the channels, so we'll see!

rooney Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 At least he is not frightened to have a go at the managerial stint, unlike most of the pundits on Sky and BBC etc who would be terrified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Rooney made a decent pundit a few weeks ago when I heard him on TV, he should focus on that and stay the fuck away from managing clubs. In fairness, Rooney did incredibly well at Derby. Granted they were relegated but at the start of the season, bookies wern't even taking bets on them staying up. The fact he took them to within 2 games to go with a youth squad, no money and a 21 point deduction is actually quite something. I wouldn't touch him if he fails this time around but I think this could be a very good appointment. Gerrard also has one failure and one success. No idea what he's done in Saudi mind.

Not sure "incredibly well" is accurate. Did a reasonable job of doing the siege mentality "they're all against us" thing but his performance was ropey outside of that. He was bloody dreadful the season before as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnceaSaintalwaysaSaint Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 With 10 months under his belt, Russell Martin is up to 6th longest serving manager in the Championship. The merry-go-round in this league goes even faster than the premier league. You would have thought staying up in their first year represents an achievement for Plymouth and the manager could have been given more time to consolidate their position in the league.

Stephen Schumacher left for Stoke and Ian Foster was sacked after 16 games for a 20% win rate. They stayed up with an interim in charge, so they are on the look out for a new manager.
