Thomaswednesday Posted November 10, 2012 Author Share Posted November 10, 2012 maybe bring Harry Redknapp in as caretaker manager until someone who fitted the bill came along? i dont think he'd commit to the job but maybe he'd help an old friend out, might be a tidy offshore payment in it for him?

ReadingOwl Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Considering all the ramifications of bringing someone new in - then, they having to adopt his squad - it looks like we are stuck with him, for better or worse. That is providing he is still up for it/ wants it (privately). Pretty ambivalent TBH. Gone past caring, I suppose. Milan (the Club) will be in a better position to judge. But the above isn't the same as saying, I have faith in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Foxhill Owl Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 That's the problem all the available managers are crap That's it BG who do we replace DJ with ? Roy Kean ? Owen Coyle that's the ones I can think of n are they decent ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
townend_owl Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Me too It would be a rollercoaster ride Don't think fans would take to a 'fancy dan' manager tho I'd just love to see a manager like that. Up-and-coming, trying to ply his trade and everything to this date suggests he'd do a good job. He's got a fantastic record with Swindon under some difficult circumstances at times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TDJL Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Stick with DJ, he is the man for the job. I can't believe people want him out, look at where we are in comparison to two years ago, the club is progressing and DJ has been a big part of that - promotion, improved style of play and better players. Keep the faith and we'll come good, with time DJ will bring in more players, improve the squad and we'll become more consitent in our performances/results. It would be ludicrous to fire him at this point of the season. The likes of Irvine and Megson were only gonna take us so far (Irvine backwards, Megson championship and back down again at best), DJ however will get us towards the playoff places in this league but it will take a season or two.....

Guest Fedor Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 The person we need to sort this mess out is the Dave Jones that came in last season. A manager who came in and gave us fresh impetus. A manager who had a clear mindset and a plan. A manager who put square pegs in square holes. Maybe he needs to take a step back, re-take stock of the situation, forget any grudges he holds, forget any favouritism, forget who signed who and pick his best team and formation. But I don't see this happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TDJL Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Di Canio would be too much of a gamble.... We need stability at the moment, let DJ do what he's gotta do and when he's taken us as far as he can (playoff places), then it will be time for change....

Taximark Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Di canio hates Sheffield read his book. 20 years ago, if he came here he'd love it, and trust me, would be a MASSIVE hit with the fans but no way can I see Milan hiring him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJMortimer Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I find it fascinating that some people can accuse players of lacking commitment and passion and then claim in the next breath that they're almost past caring. If supporters (who like to tell themselves that they are the lifeblood of the club) get like this during a bad run, why should we expect transitory employees to be so different? And if you're only enthusiastic during the heady periods I'd suggest you're following the wrong club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever I think doesn't make one jot of difference. And, furthermore, I don't have any decent suggestions. I haven't a clue TBH. Jones in/Jones out - who knows, really? I blame my Father for giving me a lifetime of misery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 I love DJ and I dont want to see him go but I dont think MM will be left with any option soon and its sad really. Although I get the feeling that the only reason he hasnt been thrown out yet is that we'd still be paying him off until his contract ended! Arent we still paying for megson too? If we signed another manager we'd be paying for 3! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJMortimer Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Obviously 'caring', in and of itself, doesn't make much difference. But how can supporters so easily throw in the towel when times are hard and then slag off the players for supposedly doing the same (usually only an unsubstantiated, frustrated and lazy claim anyway), especially when the latter might easily be employed somewhere else next week?
