Thought he had the makings of a half decent manager at Derby. Probably back to the US he goes next.

At Derby he had Liam Rosenior as his assistant, he currently has Hull in 7th.

 

Given that Rooney has failed in his two jobs without him, think it's safe to say he was the main architect behind what happened

at Derby.

Fair enough.

Hypothetically speaking,  given our situation, would you have Rooney until the end of the season? 

 

Would take him some time to get up to speed, but at 38, he could still provide cover for Wilson and Isak.

Judging by Birmingham's track record, in about 2030 they'll be in the playoffs under someone like Barry Bannan and they'll sack him for Harry Maguire to take over.

Derby supporting work mate say the very same thing, Rooney was shite and it was all down to Rosenior.

Eustace wants the Birmingham job back.

 

Imagine being fired from a job in 6th place in Play-Off contention, then 3 months later having to pick up the pieces in a relegation battle.

But, you know, Tom Brady will make one too many mistakes. The Birmingham board will see what Eustace already knew, and they'll go in there, and they'll go, "right, yeah, Eustace was right. Rooney's pissed off him and Rooney's pissed off him. Rooney's not the manager we thought he was. Okay. So get out, we made the mistake." Then they drag Rooney out by his hair and that's when the begging starts. They'll come to Eustace and say, "Ooh, John you were right all along, you were the right man for this job, you're the best man for this job. Will you come back?" And he'll be like, "yeah sure how much money have you got? Because this is going to cost ya."

Lee Johnson sacked by Fleetwood this morning, Charlie Adam the new manager in a very FM-tastic appointment.

Just to add to this, Fleetwood's last 4 managers are:

 

Joey Barton; Scott Brown; Lee Johnson; Charlie Adam

 

Feel sorry for the Fleetwood fans :lol:

Rooney's always struck me as not being the sharpest tool in the box.

Apparently he didn't even coach, just turned up and picked the team
