Maybe because getting on the training ground and talking to the players is more important then having photo taken for the press release. 

Ruud wasn’t even in the country when they announced him.

They've given a 6 year contract until the end of the season.

5 years apparently

Good luck to him. Ease him in against his old club for his first game and then straight into a protest for his first home game.

Forgot about Middlesbrough

Double announcement with the Tech Director?

[Leicesterpool]

I hope for his sakes he goes well does enough not just to keep us in the championship but enough to get the job long term, don't want another manager search in the summer. 

 

Give Rowett some credit he clearly wanted the job, turned down Blackburn supposedly where they were offering him a long term deal. He's obviously certainly still see's us as a massive club with potential despite the problems.

I understand that he completed all the formalities this morning and was told he needed to do the socail media next. He said "**** that we have a match on Saturday, I need to get on the traning ground and sort out this shit."

 

IKFA.

Please be true

Away to Middlesbrough is the second, not much better for him 

[Leicesterpool]

I can imagine from Rowett's point of view, he's aware a lot of players are out of contract come May and ones on high wages. That will free up room to start from scratch and build his own team. But all that depends if gets the chance beyond this season and if there's some sort of funds available for him to work with. However we are talking about Rudkin, who no doubt we will to be part of choosing that recruitment again...

Agree and hope he does really well. 
 

I really get the impression though he has no idea how toxic it really is top to bottom. Hope to be proved very wrong but everything feels off.

Pretty sure we'll make the playoffs from here

He lives in the West Midlands as well so not surprised he chose us over Blackburn
