I would take a look at the managers career before making that assumption.Originally posted by 3London View PostReally not getting this Rowett is an amazing manager thing! What have have you all based this on? Hardly st Birmingham alight they are just one of about 10 teams in this dig who can be great one day and terrible the next.
He turned Burton right around, who JFH coincidentally took over and finished of sending the up. Then turned up at a very very poor Birmingham side, fighting for survival in the Champ and has turned them into promotion contenders.
He's 'on paper' a very good prospect at 41 years old.... :-)

Agreed on the fact that Rowett would be the favourite if available (IMO) but at the same time, its a bit harsh on JFH to say that he hasn't had a supreme influence. You can see it in their style, having finally watched a few full matches. Compare that to Rowett's Birmingham and you can see a lot of differences in the way they play and JFH's style is what got them promoted more than the work of Rowett, who stabilised the ship.Originally posted by qpr4life View PostI would take a look at the managers career before making that assumption.

Can't win. If we went and got an older more proven manager, people would whinge that we aren't looking to the future.Originally posted by Shepherds Mush View PostSpend all our time looking for the next Eddie Howe and proven managers like Pearson and Rodgers will just pass us by.You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

Which is why I made this thread... I just don't think we realise how spoiled or whatever you wanna call we all are right now. Im glad we're taking our time, shows intent to get the right man in. We're not doing any worse, defending better if anything..Originally posted by MattyRangers View PostCan't win.

Not quite sure that Rodgers (certainly) and Pearson are that much older than Rowett that that would be a problem but I get your point as whoever we take on there will be people who will find fault....nature of the football fanOriginally posted by MattyRangers View PostCan't win.
