Clement

[Alanwycombe]

I reckon we dodged a few bullets given some of the names being mentioned as a potential manager. Good job we got Schteeve as it turns out.

I think a lot of us thought - probably more out of desperation than logic - that Clement would ride in on his white horse and save us. Turns out the reality is he doesn't seem to have what it takes, despite his pedigree. So yeah, we dodged a bullet and by the strange twists of fate, ended up with a decent manager. Who'd a thought it?

[Shepherds Mush]

Likeable bloke but never been a fan of him as a manager.

Needs to go down a league and prove himself, like a few others should. Far too many start their managerial careers at too high a level IMO.

[West Acton]

Said at time he was not the man so glad he never came as he would have been someone else to pay off. Useless manager

[SheepRanger]

Never understood those who deemed him to be the next best thing based only on the fact that he was a coach at Real Madrid.

[QPRDave]

Get him in to do a bit of coaching?

[Alanwycombe]

No ta.

We've already got one of the best coaches England has ever produced managing us..

Agreed Hubs. We were at a very low point when his name was being banded about.

Always makes me wonder why people think they can just waltz into management at high levels (let's face it, the Championship isup there with the hardest leagues in Europe) without cutting their teeth in the lower leagues.

no you have it wrong , he drove the coach at real madrid

[Stanley]

The fact that his Dad was a genuine Rangers legend can easily cloud some fans' judgement, and understandably so.
He was also TF's 'dream manager' lest we not forget

What pedigree is that exactly???

He had zero pedigree as a manager and got given jobs based on a CV having coaching roles at big name clubs simply because he was part of Ancelotti's backroom staff. Blimey the way some carried on about the bloke you'd think these massive clubs headhunted him for his footballing genius or something, when instead he was simply part of the package with Ancelotti.

He's since proved over multiple management jobs that he's not got a clue and is utterly useless/

It's perfectly possible to be a decent coach and a hopeless gaffer, but at Derby his record was sound.

Time will tell, could simply be that he's better as a no 2.
