Ameritoon Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Very strange. Maybe there was some off the field drama behind the scenes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 They'd spent a lot after McClaren and seem to be clinging on to a top 6 spot. They've hardly progressed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figures 1-0 Football Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 In a statement, chairman Mel Morris said Derby had "not made enough progress" under former Chelsea and Real Madrid assistant Clement, 44. 5th in the Championship, 5 points from the top He's on his first poor run as manager and without a win in 7 games, it seems at most clubs these days if you hit a bad run of form you get sacked. Ridiculous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallowgate Toon Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 He's meant to be a massive pisshead, no? They've been dropping down a while but surely, if it was for footballing reasons, they'd have given him longer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cort Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Spent a lot of cash in the expectation that this year they wouldn't screw up. Haven't won in 7 games which probably provided the Derby board with a deja vu of what happened last season. Probably felt that if they left it another month, they'd be too far off 2nd place.

Joe_F Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 So the chairmans obviously missing McClarens magnificent football Promotion this season was not the primary target. The priorities were building on the Derby way and style of football enjoyed in the past two seasons; Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 The craic in Derby is that Clement wasn't picking the team and didn't have full control. Sounds familiar... There's also rumours he slept with someone's wife. Jesus, the more I think about it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Sacked...f***ing nuts. I don't get that. Wonder what their reason is. They've spent absolutely loads and they've been doing really bad recently. They have to get promoted or they're f***ed I reckon. They should be comfortaby top 2 with their squad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 The Derby way. What the f*** is that?!?! Going by available evidence, the Derby way consists in narrowly missing on promotion, and Clement seemed poised to deliver that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leazes_End_Mag Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Carver and di Canio after the Rotherham job. Why not have both? Surely im not the only one who thinks that nobody in their right mind will give Carver another chance in management? Even before his time in charge of us, he'd been a disaster elsewhere.

Interpolic Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Everyone was writing off Ranieri tbf, really want him to win the league as he's just so lovely and cuddly.

Got a Bobby Robson manner about him, doesn't take the media stuff too seriously and always has a joke or 2. For someone with a rather successful managerial career and who's managed quite a few big clubs, he hasn't won much of consequence. UEFA Super Cup and Copa del Rey with Valencia, Coppa Italia with Fiorentina. It would be nice to see him win the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
