Gary Rowett

[PSR Fox]

The most uninspiring appointment ever . Until the end of the season but is that just a cover if we go down they will give him the job full time because he is cheap.

 

The question I have to ask is they spoke to him 2 weeks ago so why so long to appoint him? Did he turn us down thinking he would get the Blackburn or Watford job , Now wants the Leicester job because he got neither.

 

 

[DAS Boot]

Fvcking crap.

 

I HATE HIM.

An appointment which sums up the mismanagement by the idiot in charge. 

Good luck to him though, especially with trying to make us decent defensively with Thomas Okoli and Ricardo

Not long been sacked by Oxford. Meh.

In December last year........this really should start alarm bells ringing!

[Mark 'expert' Lawrenson]

All the best to him in particular sorting out our defence 😂 and working with Rudkin!

 

Lamb to the slaughter but let’s give him a chance 🦊 

[winteriscoming]

Imagine if he turns us down. 😂

We employed the former manager of QPR who didn't finish much higher than Oxford last season...just saying 

It's like we just don't learn eh?

Someone who's spent 4 years at Millwall might just be what this group needs.

I imagine they have been trying to find someone better but everyone else has said no.

New manager bounce and he's returning to a club he failed at on Saturday... surely even we can't throw away this absolutely nailed-on 3 points?

[Haywood_6]

I think if he gets us to keep a clean sheet he deserves the manager of the month award

[The mullet of Phil Gee]

Granted, it might just be wind, but my gut feeling is that Rowett might just be what we need right now.

 

If he can tighten us up defensively, we should have enough going forward to get out of the bottom 3 and to safety.

 

Let’s get back to playing some gritty, no-nonsense football for once. 
 

We can then reevaluate in the summer.

Best of luck to him. Hopefully he's perceptive and brave enough to quickly identify the players who can't be relied upon and push them to one side because if there's one thing that I think will almost certainly prove fatal, it's another round of entirely undeserved clean slates being handed out.

if we stay up on goal difference, it will be seen as a success - I honest don't care how it's done as long as it gets done.

We've gone from Premier league champions to Championship relegation fodder in 10 years. 

Imagine if it had happened even faster  

[FoxinNotts]

Wonder if he brings Kevin Poole with him?

[Foxin_Mad]

Realistically he’s probably all we are gonna get under these incompetent ****wits. If he come in punches a few people, falls out with a few of our players then fair play. He seems to believe he can do something which is something.

[Guesty]

Looks like he's tactically flexible and has experience of the situation we're in. I'd much rather this than someone who is a big name ex-player.

 

I think we're finally at the point where everyone has accepted how bad this squad of players is. So they won't expect miracles from him. Could be exactly what we need.

[CrazyKopCorner]

Lets face it he's going to be crap and we'll be down by Easter but lets give him a chance  

[Kitchandro]

Please, please, please just give these players a bollocking. If he’s planning to be nice to them we are goners.

It’s giving me Steve Cooper MK2 vibes, was always available and in the end was the only one remotely interested in taking the job after a glutful of big unattainable names have told us to do one. 

He can organise a defence, Cooper couldn’t do either.

[Chelmofox]

Just stay up

 

[suffolk fox]

Best of luck to him.  Wish him well, willing to give him chance.  Some posters on this forum need a reality check.  Good Championship experience too.

[Mike Oxlong]

Ambitious appointment 

[teblin]

Uninspiring but he’s pretty solid at this level.
