He previously played for us so like Lee, Loovens, Semedo, Hutchinson etc he’s automatically qualified and the best man for the job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan was the time to appoint to stay up. He’s a much better manager than I thought we could attract. I hope it works out because he could be decent over the longer term. I know it’s irrelevant but it is nice to have a manager who looks like he could still fight our entire squad comfortably! Welcome aboard Darren!

He is probably a capable manager who could do a reasonable job until we could make a more inspirational appointment Not quite a Monk style appointment, as someone suggested earlier, but not a particularly inspirational one either. My thoughts are, he will struggle to match Thompson’s results, and we will be relegated. I’m sure, even if we are relegated, he will be given the task of overseeing our league one campaign We will bob around in mid table for a season or two, before he is sacked, and we start the whole process again We are plodding along at 1.3 points per game under Thompson. Slightly better than before but not a target which is unbeatable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I quite liked the idea of this when it was mentioned weeks ago. Doncaster were doing well and he seems a good guy and a decent talker. Could be the laws type we needed. Didnt expect it to happen so it was a pleasant surprise this am. I expected an appointment of a random in the summer or Lowe if we went down. Moore has experience at both levels so covers either eventuality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Will the likes of Westwood and Hutchinson listen to him and respect him? 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets (again!) hope for players in their obvious roles, a team ethic and a new manager bounce. Not sure about that, Thompson had a near 50% win record, Moore will struggle to achieve that here, and he will likely to be the one who takes us down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I said earlier I think it's forward planning for next year since he's currently managing at that level and knows the division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think it’s a clever move from him. Been on a shocking run of form at Doncaster, a good chance to get out and start a fresh. He seems a good bloke. Wish him the best. Incredibly tough job on his hands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I'm just looking forward to watching him give Bannan a pep talk. You know, with Bannan coming up to his shins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beswetherick Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Pleasantly surprised by this... I think Darren Moore is mental for taking the job but I wouldn’t say that to his face! Best of luck big man, you’ll need it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
