FreshOwl Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I never understand fans who are like “oooh not sure about him, he’s lost a few recently with Donny” What manager has a 100% win ratio? They all seem to have around 35-45% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Seems a solid, smart and forward thinking appointment. I'm happy with the appointment, as long as he's given time to implement a long term plan, it could be our best appointment in a long time. However, this is DC and Sheffield Wednesday, we never do anything sensible or long term. Good luck to him, he'll need it with our owner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dexter Morgan Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I’m very underwhelmed by this, not sure how you work out this is a positive appointment, donny are falling away and he’s got no real chance of keeping us up not overjoyed with excitement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 More often than not you always look for the positives with a new managerial appointment and hope that this is the one that finally clicks? Don’t know why but this feels like the right appointment at the right time and the one that will get us and Chansiri out of the cart long term whether we are relegated this season or not?

Lawrie’s Left Peg Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 “My ambition at the start of the season was to score 100 goals. When I left, we had 70 and there were still games left to play. I’m not saying we would have got the 100, but it outlines what the mentality was. The only way you do that is by playing open, expansive, attacking football” He’ll do for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 I just hope it’s a long term deal. Think he will be good for us even if we do go down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he did quite well at West Brom and Doncaster, seems to be attack minded and seems to get results, whilst playing decent enough football. A lot of us seemed to want Paul Cook, myself included, some of us would say they would've been underwhelmed by his appointment but we're a badly run club on the way to League One after embargoes and a points deduction. Cook, I think would've been a good fit for us in our position but Moore is younger, his teams play similar and he's got a decent enough record. It could be a smart appointment if it's a long term appointment? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Think the majority are being supportive and positive about him. It’s that clueless clown Chansiri people don’t want here. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 6 hours ago, gurujuan said: Ridiculous appointment. Nothing against the guy personally, but what has DC seen in his career so far to suggest that he can handle this job Believe me, this will end in tears, and quickly Well despite not being able to keep West Brom up, he took over a team that had lost 8 Premier League games in a row and picked up 11 points from his first 6 games in management. He then took them to 4th place in the Championship next season before they sacked him in a panic and failed to get promoted. He had a good season at Donny last season and was improving on that this season, to have them in the play-off places in that division is good work. I'm happy with this appointment. We should have acted much sooner but I am glad we have finally acted and also glad it is not some predictable past it out of work manager with links to our advisors. Lets get behind him.

Geedee Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Its a solid and sensible appointment. Good luck to him. He needs to be given the tools to do the job and the authority to 'really' be in charge of team selection and recruitment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
