Unbelievable Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 So we're down to missing Roeder. And Fat Fred.. Hard to argue any different given our curent plight.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 How is he not a worse manager than Souness? He just got Norwich relegated from the Championship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen927 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 However after this Norwich were in a poor run of form. The pressure really began to build on Roeder after his actions at the clubs AGM. He was very arrogant and sarcastic when giving answers to shareholders and was booed at one point. After one supporter criticised his team selections Roeder responded by saying "I must have missed your spell as England manager". Club director Delia Smith was even forced to make Roeder apologise.

nobby_solano Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Whatever happened to Glenn? Was fired from Norwich City last year/early this year. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? can he still do the roeder shuffle? we need an experienced centre back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 That was what always got me with Roeder. Irrespective of whether that little story is true or not, this whole idea that he was a really good guy just wasn't true. He was pretty arrogant but with absolutely nothing to base it on; i don't for a second believed he had resigned through his own accord, more was told either to resign publically or be sacked. But he just chatted bollocks, every week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Do people forget how bad we were under Allardyce? Definitely on the way down if he stayed in charge. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest neesy111 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 the thing that i hated about roeder was he would alway's say i'm not making excuse's but we have got a lot of injuries, that is a fucking excuse roeder is an awful manager, i don't know how he got us to 7th he relegated one of the best west ham team's, left us almost relegated and now look at norwich Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Do people forget how bad we were under Allardyce? Definitely on the way down if he stayed in charge. The matches were so awful people just blocked them out. You'll never convince me that Allardyce wasn't taking us down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Stephen927 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 What Allardyce neglect to mention was that his proposed 5 year plan was going to involve 2 seasons in the Championship before we really got going in the Premier League. Things were really bad with Allardyce at the helm. I just wasn't bothered come match day, and the players felt the same way judging by their performances. He really did suck the fun out of football, you only have to look at that Youtube video of him leading training at St James Park with that damn microphone to see that I'm right.

Consortium of one Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 sacking fat Sam was probably the only thing fatter Mike did right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikri Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Shows how far we have sunk frankly when we're looking at Roeder as being our best manager (bar Keegan's brief stint) since Robson. He did manage to get a few very decent results with very poor resources, the results at home against the Sky 4 alone were impressive. Had he stayed on and been in charge when Ashley took over I feel that a lot of things would have gone quite differently, he did at least understand the fans a hell of a lot better than Fat Sam did so I doubt he'd have built a team of hard working players with zero flair, nor would he have surrendered any chance to beat teams away from home in favour of a hard fought draw like Fat Sam. I don't think I'd want him back but virtually any manager > no manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 If Roder was good looking and suave he'd come accross as the most arrogant man on the planet, but his somewhat humble apperance cancelled out his pompous attitude. All by and large not a bad bloke, certainly not an muscle-flexing arsehole like Souness Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Wheres this arrogant stuff coming from? I know a few people who knew him while he was here and the general consensus was that he was a decent bloke. The only instance Ive come across is when he used to refer to himself in the 3rd person, which is worthy of a death sentence tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 He'll be straight on Facebook to Alan. "Hi alan who should i sign?" 10th August 2009 "hi alan me again i notice youve been online but not responded please hurry up" 25th august 2009 "hi alan fine fuk u m8 ill get help from someone better" 30th august 2009 Newcastle United are pleased to confirm that we have sent a scout to view Dirk Kuyt in action for Feyenoord. Whatever happened to Glenn? Was fired from Norwich City last year/early this year. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? It's Glenn time! It's only Glenn time when Glenn Roeder says it's Glenn time.

Ronaldo Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 A football manager HAS to be arrogant. Even Bobby had a healthy amount of it, his book is so self-appreciatvie it almost reads like it was written by a 3rd party at times. If a manager isn't 100% covinced that he's the best man for the job, how can he expect the players to be. Dealing with such massive, massive egos requires arrogance. Roeder isn't a naturally arrogant bloke but at times purposely appeared to be so and always just ended up looking daft. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he didn't, he kept them up in his first season and, someone can correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think they were in the relegation zone at all last season until they sacked him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but Souness also inherited - by far - the strongest squad of that lot and a team which felt it owed the fans and eachpther for letting SBR down. We flattened Blackburn 3-0 before he even got here. Those types of results NEVER happened in the interim for those others. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
