Delay due to Aiyawatt sending across too many 2000s memorabilia across to Rowett to sign. 
 

After watching the league cup final v Boro, Aiyawatt, now being an avid fan thought Rowett was the pick of the Taylor signings. Has based his entire amateur career on Rowett right back (sometimes right sided centre back) qualities. 
 

Aiyawatt’s other favourites of that era include Damien Delaney, Arnaur Gunglaugson and Billy McKinlay. 
 

 

 

Man I thought Delaney was going to go right to the top of the game.  I was wrong. I'm often wrong.

Wish there was a managers window in Jan like the players one, where u can only sack and hire within a certain time. Would give top a kick up the arse then

Nothing

They've got no sense of urgency,  we need a manager now

Thought Iwan had got the gig for a second there!

I think Top might be in Japan so you can probably expect this to be confirmed in March sometime.

Heard he is meeting Hajime Moriyasu to talk about Polo,Rice and Pickled Vegetables.

70% win record having to be versatile enough to coach a team to both break extremely defensive sides that are terrified of them and also play the opposite game, sitting back and countering. Master minded both the destruction of Germany and the record demolition of China. 

 

I'm down.

Selling us to the Yakuza hopefully, so we can have a turf war with Forest and Marianakis

Rowett told Jon to keep sticking his head in the sand and walked out the interview.

They wanted to see how Andy would do.

I believe this to be true.  If he had won one or two games they would have stuck with him to the end of the season.  Facts are, he lost all four games hence them having to go back to square one.

I’ll back him 100% but I’m not fully sold, as an interim it probably works because he’s got a decent record of going in as a firefighter, the question remains whether he can sustain that if he keeps us up comfortably and then gets given a new contract. 
 

I feel about this how I felt about our links to Carrick, not blown away but a big improvement. Hopefully Rowett can have the impact Carrick has, may just be a new manager bounce but United are playing some fantastic football in tight spaces and they seem to be very confident under him. 
 

Unless United collapse I think the Carrick ship has now sailed and he will go on to either get the job there like Ole or perhaps end up at a mid/lower mid table club in the prem. 

 

Maybe this is the long term job Rowett needed to take his management to the next level.

He’s also Anthony’s mouthpiece. Could easily just be “tell them we’re working on something to shut them up”

No idea whether he is or isn't.

I got a lot of stick for saying that. IMO he has to call the club out still because of his employer. But he’s certainly done plenty of PR for the club too,
