Guest BooBoo Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 In all management there has to be some flexibity and compromise. The Souness/ Shearer/ Seargeant Major approach will simply not work these days, for better or worse. Seems to work alright for Fergie. Because he's indoctrinated the entire club of MUFC with that approach for over 20 years. It's completely different to a rookie boss starting off in management these days. Players on the whole are too Molly coddled to respond positively to such treatment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I think he'll do a sterling job. Hope he does and can eventually come back here instead of that clown we've ended up with. Any need? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Unexpected. Could see him at Southampton or Blackburn because of his history with each club, but Cardiff? Why not? It's one of the higher profile lower league clubs with a passionate fan base. Great place to prove himself as a manager, I would think he'd have more money to spend than his rivals as well.

Whilst I understand this is the usual provocative boring shite you peddle re: Pardew, I think it's safe to say that Shearer didn't look too far off a circus performer during his brief stint in charge of Newcastle. We scored in 2 out of the 8 games he took charge of, Cardiff will be lucky to stay up at that rate. Say what you like about the circumstances, the likes of Lawrie frigging Sanchez and Paul Hart have come in for similar-length stints at Premier League clubs and kept them up.

Conjo Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 I don't think Shearer will be this "lay down the law" type that some are saying. I think he tried that when he took over at Newcastle as it was some sort of shake up attempt. I can't see those few games as Toon boss can be truly taken as indicative of his managerial style for Cardiff. He's still got to get a full season of managing a club under his belt yet and I'm sure he will change with the job overtime like anyone else would. Hope this is right. I can see the argument that he did this when he came to Newcastle, as there were so little time to bond/create positive relations/culture in the club. Will definitely look out for Cardiff results if this happens. Good luck Shearer! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Just a pointless dig, really. Pardew atm has a lot more respect as a coach within the game than Shearer does. I'd like to see how Shearer does, but it's a ridiculous statement to make right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 There's enough of you quick enough to slag off Alan fucking Shearer. Shearer the player, Shearer the man, Shearer the pundit and Shearer the manager are all almost entirely separate entities imo. Shearer the player and Shearer the man I have very little bad to say. Shearer the manager, there's plenty of things I can tell you that from an admittedly short space of time appeared to be not very good at all. People are commenting on Shearer because you've come out with this idea that he'll do incredibly well at Cardiff based on very little. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard a lot of people in the game speak highly of him FWIW, and Southampton fans rated him very highly. His sacking there was borderline farcical. Not saying I rate him particularly highly, but I may aswell defend him if he's going to be needlessly slagged in favour of somebody with next to no managerial experience (who you're happy to predict will be a massive success seemingly based on, well, little more than fanciful idolism) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He already began his management career at the top level, and then quickly dropped down a level. Now he's just taking up where he left off, only with some horrible club in Wales.

Foluwashola Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Wait a minute, Pardew took over a relatively stable side yet people aren't allowed to comment on his management until next season. Shearer, on the other hand, took over a group of mercenaries for a handful of games yet his management skills can be assessed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardew is our manager while Shearer isn't. Shearer had his feet under the table here but didn't want to work with a budget and so Hughton stepped in and got the job done for a lot less. Now Shearer is doing at Cardiff what he should have done here. Better late than never. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
