Who's next after Benitez - Poll reset 25th Jan

[MrGrumpy]

Not been following Rooney managerial career but isn't it too soon?

Allerdyce Benitez and Ancelotti didn’t exactly work out and they thousands of games between them

yes for me, doing well at Derby at minute , won 18,lost 27 from 65 -though a lot of those defeats came last season = 27% win rate

Why would you waste 2-3 weeks plus a transfer window on a guy who NOT up for it

So we're not rushed into making a decision, hiring from a far smaller pool of managers who are available mid-season (with those available having recently been sacked). Which high calibre manager do you want to pursue (who is going to join mid-way through the campaign)?

Has to be Ferguson for the Villa game but in the meantime I think we should go for Rooney. I never thought I would say that but we are in deep trouble. If you see the job he is doing at Derby I think he could sort out the mess we find ourselves in.

 

[Blueclouds]

We cant rush so let's just give dunc it till the summer.

So you would expect Rooney to walk out on Derby. Great traits we are recruiting

I can see Ferguson being in charge for the Villa game which is fair enough, such a short time to get a manager in place but I’d full hope that’s all and we have a permanent manager in place for the game after.

I’m still hoping for more signings which I’m sure we all are so a permanent manager needs sorting asap.

Potter is a fantastic manager and I like his style but we dont have the players he needs to play it. Therefore we would struggle until he got them and he probably wouldnt last more than a year.

Not in my view. The fans would give him time if changes were seen on the pitch.

That's what the problem was with Benitez.

Also, the reason why I think people feel Potter is a viable option is...his team's can defend.

6th best defence in the league so far.
7th last season.

 

[Melchizedek]

Give it Dunc for the rest of the season. If for no other reason than getting that Patterson lad in the team every week and @davek developing TMJ from his gnashing of teeth.

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

…I fear the former will see us relegated. We need to act now, giving it to somebody until the end of the season has to be a definite non-starter.

As long as Richarlison is fit from now on we will easily climb the table.

We still got 19 games to go and in a relegation fight, we can’t afford to dwindle and waste time

 

[Cool_Blue]

At the rate things are going any decent candidate would want assurances about restructuring and a board shake-up.

We won't be in a position to give those assurances to credible candidates. Anyone with personal ambition will see through the bluster a mile off. And anyone without ambition is just looking for a pay day.

We aren't in a position to give assurances. Turkeys don't vote for Christmas. Unless Moshiri finally sees this as a wake up call.

BFS it is then

If Derby don’t prove they have the money within 3 weeks to finish the season they be kicked out the league
