Can't get my head round why any Derby fan would be happy bringing McClaren back after he overseen one of the worst collapses I've seen from a team in the last few months of his last spell there. Not to mention his time here being a complete failure from start to finish as well.

Don't have anything against the bloke tbh. Have no doubt he tried his best, the job was just too much for the daft shite.

 

Agree here though. Plus would do the whole McClaren experiment all over again if it meant getting Benitez in the end.

Failed to get promoted, gets sacked, joins NUFC, pretty much relegates us, gets sacked, gets another job at club where he failed and gets sacked. English football folks.

 

It's crazy isn't it. The only piece of logic I can find that makes any sense of this is, they seem to feel that us trying to tap him up cost them promotion, if were weren't after him they would have at very least made the playoffs that year, since they were beaten playoff finalist the previous year that would not have been a bad record. There maybe some truth in that, but to me, if I were them I wouldn't have touched him with a barge pole, that's not just based on the absolutely mess he made with us but he's going to have to win back a set of players (many of whom will still be there) that had clearly given up on him and a fan base that will be skeptical to say the least.

And that was probably the only training session when he that week. Fuck knows how Derby will find any time on the training pitch with all the games in the Championship and having to rest the day before and two days after or whatever the fuck Schteve's routine was here.

My first thought today when I heard this news was "I honestly hope he does well"

 

Nah didnt really have nothing against the man until that game against Chelsea when we were thumped 5-0 and we went on tv smiling away .... And since that day I can't stand the cunt he's up there with pards imo ... Have absolutely nothing against Derby or their  supporters but would love for nothing more for him to  fuck up this opportunity and to never get a job in football management again.... And the fact some one has actually gave this man a job again is astounding

Pardew was the arsehole stepdad who knocked your Mam about.

 

McClaren was the rebound prick who's still a proper arsehole but at least he doesn't hit her.

 

Curious and sums it up nicely :lol: he's just a loser - the other is narcissistic, self preserving pond life. Apologies to pond life.

I think we've finally found a real-life analogy that doesn't work for NUFC, at all.

It's a sad indictment of the lack of quality coming through that people like Steve McClaren can still find work. I have nothing against him other than he was nowhere near good enough to manage us at the time he took over, good luck to him I guess.
