Teasy Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Yeah, in January. Was already reported he wouldn't move until the summer. Confirms he's the one the club wants though. So really it does just come down to wether Derby get promoted or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 McLaren is way to sensible to be used as a puppet by ashley. Im mot sure anyone will touch the job given whats been highlighted recently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 He was probably one of the candidates who said 'wait until the summer', and since the wheels are falling off his Derby campaign, he will probably get the job. As someone said earlier, pure 6/10 appointment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The College Dropout Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 After Carver it's not. Yes it is. Carver is a 0 out of 10. Don't let them make you think mediocrity is acceptable. There was a time where we only hired managers that had considerable achievements as players and/or managers. That should be the standard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 It's a clear 5. Could easily be worse, could be significantly better. Pure middle of the road, just what Ashley wants. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve_69 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I'd snatch your bloody hand off for a 6 appointment right now. Kinnear was a -5, Pardew was a 3 at best and Carver, as pointed out above, is a big fat 0. We've all been seduced by some of the names bandied about on here - Garde, Tuchel etc. but realistically that was never going to happen. As usual we'll be shopping at the charity shop end of the market and although McLaren is uninspiring he is at least a competent coach/manager. At the moment that's the very best we can hope for.

STM Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Ok Dave, 5 will do. Average as fuck. I'd be far more optimistic with McClaren, than I was with Pardew. Tragic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. McClaren is about the best we can hope for until Ashley fucks off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenige Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Spoke to a Derby fan yesterday. The fact his fingers are most firmly crossed for us to 'poach' their 5/10 manager spoke volumes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 At least Steve won't be suspicious of every foreign player. At least he isn't incredibly pompous and annoying. At least he has actually experienced winning something. At least he has experience of managing in Europe. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TruToon94 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 If somebody had said we could have had McClaren over Pardew I think we would have all jumped at the chance. I still maintain that McClaren actually does like to win things though and thus either won't come to us or if he does, won't last very long! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 One upside of appointing McClaren is that if he turns out to be shit, he'll make an easy manager to hate, like Pardew. So if the football is boring we can entertain ourselves dreaming up new ways to abuse him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andymc1 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 I don't think he's a hateful character. He always comes across as a canny bloke. He's 100x better than Pardew and Carver for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
