CircleSeven Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 I’m both surprised and delighted to see a Mick McCarthy thread. I thought they had stopped never to be seen again! I have always liked Mick, and have thought he would have been good for the last three times we changed manager. The problem is would he work now? With the squad we actually have? Not sure his footballing methods would work to be honest with our current set of players. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A47Owl Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Oh no. Not him again. Don't get me started. His achievements aren't so great. Past his sell by date. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthefish2002 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Think Big Mick would have been a decent manager for us 10 or 15 years ago but you get the impression he is a bit too long in the tooth now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For once I’d like us to hire a manager who’s most recent club’s supporters weren’t happy to see their manager leave. That might help us to hire a good one As we're a team in Third, I'd say our choice of possible replacements is limited. And I don't see Old Six-Fingers dropping to our level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if we want to change manager again now (which I don’t think we do) that would be our choice again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersiggi2 Posted October 18, 2021 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Not for me. Started with 5 centre halves yesterday didn't he? There's got to be a happy medium between Moore's tactics and Mick's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiff squad isn’t bad, not sure how he’s getting it so wrong there. He sounds like a perfect fit for us. We could change managers but still keep the continuity. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiff have one of the best target man type forwards in the division and aunts at the back. I can’t fathom how he isn’t doing well there. He’d struggle here, we don’t have any targetmen style forwards, he’d have Dunkley upfront. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DM pretty much got shut of the deadwood and made a few decent signings, although doesn't appear to know his best 11 yet. Stop throwing silly points away and cut out the odd mistakes that cost and we're not going to be far away. Will DM be able to deliver this, I don't know and only time will tell. Too early to be calling for his head IMO 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeh, the same problem still exists to an extent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
