Tony Pulis Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Great appointment imo. For once, we poach one from another side rather than getting an unemployed manager whose failed elsewhere. Has experience of League One as well if necessary 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amitten Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Pleased with this. Something had to be done to give us a chance. Hope he gets the time needed, even if we do go down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Surprised at this. Surprised anyone would leave a job to takeover Wednesday at the moment. Solid if unspectacular choice. Hope he has had some assurances about resources available next season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyowl Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Good appointment. Done well at both West Brom and Doncaster, play good football. I wanted a younger forward thinking manager and we have one. I just hope he gets control of transfers or he's doomed to fail. Well come to the mad house Darren, we are all behind you! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morepork Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Good manager, top bloke. I hope DC shows him some respect and gives him more than 10 games!! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amitten Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 We need to get behind him, he's done a good job at Donny. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Why didn’t we get him when Pulis was sacked? Seems unfair on him that he has 14 games to keep us up. Surely he won’t just have signed until the end of the season? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 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 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morepork Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) If you're a Donny fan you just hit rock bottom, losing your manager to our Sh!tshow......... Edited March 1, 2021 by Morepork 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess we have offered him a generous financial package to come. Cant knock anyone moving for more money though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Sheffield Wednesday are delighted to announce the appointment of Darren Moore as our new first team manager. The highly regarded 46-year-old brings an impressive CV to S6 on both sides of the white line. The erstwhile defender made 654 senior appearances for a raft of clubs as a player over two decades, representing Torquay, Doncaster, Bradford, Portsmouth, West Brom, Derby, Barnsley and Burton. He also posted three caps on the international stage for Jamaica. Moore moved into management in April 2018 with the Baggies on a caretaker basis and came close to saving his new charges from Premier League relegation against all the odds having taken the reins 10 points from safety. He earned the Premier League Manager of the Month accolade for April along the way. Moore was appointed permanently in May 2018 with the aim of leading West Brom back to the top tier from the Championship. With that remit on course, he somewhat surprisingly departed the following March with the Baggies in fourth place. The Birmingham product moved to Doncaster in July 2019 and after laying firm foundations at the Keepmoat Stadium saw Rovers’ promotion ambitions halted by the curtailment of the League One season. Doncaster were six points shy of the play-offs with a game in hand. This time around, Rovers are ensconced in the play-off spots, again having played less games than their rivals. Moore now joins the Owls with immediate effect and will be in charge for Wednesday night’s Championship clash with Rotherham at Hillsborough. Welcome to Hillsborough, Darren! 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
