[talksbollox]

Oh I do hope so.

Huddersfield owner has said it’s just rumours.

I did bring up Grants strange comment post match interview, of the last match. Something along the lines of, “players will leave, so will managers!” It was an odd comment that stuck out to me.

[Goole Rover]

Given what he inherited I always thought Moore did an exceptional job.
[/quote What ! Giving Alfie away.

[Blue Green Algae]

May wasn't given away. He was sold. He was out of contract in June 2020, and was hardly prolific for us. What he went on to achieve was very impressive, but his record for us didn't suggest he was a player that we desperately needed to keep hold of.

A year after Alfie had gone Moore had us 2nd in the table, 3 points off top with 2 games in hand. We didn't appear to be missing him.

[sedwardsdrfc]

Can’t see him getting a bigger club who have money to spend. Unless he’s willing to work with players given. If he wants full control, something he has for better or worse here, he’s going to be very limited.

I could of seen the NI job been very tempting and think he’d have gone for that

[In the box]

I’d be surprised if that was true.

Why ? Huddersfield are bigger club , more money , can take Bailey with him first signing . He has a clause in his contract anyway . Rovers a L1/L2 club mid average budget and only fill half the stadium so funds a short . McCann has to go if the offer is true and good luck to him .. But bring Back Ferguson he knows the club and was given a good backing the last time ..

[Blue Green Algae]

It's absolutely vital we have someone who knows the club

[Chris Black come back]

Hope he stays as I think he can take us further but if he is going then sooner rather than later is much preferable. We need to be honest also that the board has had an absolute nightmare in their last couple of managerial selections before they went back to McCann because they had no other thought than the guy who was last successful for us. That's the bigger worry. God only knows who they would end up with. Probably Darren Moore.

No one taking any notice of this.?

[In the box]

He will he watching our reaction to the rumour and if true he will be off in a shot .

Whats the clause?

[curiousgeorge]

Why would anyone want Ferguson back?

[keith79]

Why would anyone want Ferguson back?

he build a great squad. Some players we still talk about now.

[curiousgeorge]

And???

[curiousgeorge]

Any ex boss for me would be SOD

[Pintolager]

Agree with you! From memory, DF wasn't very complimentary about the club in an interview by someone I can't remember

Alfie May was played out of his regular position with us, he also caused all sorts of problems for defenders when he played for us and was an absolute pest which helped contribute towards goals even if he wasn’t the one scoring them.

[Danmckay456]

If / when Grant goes we are in a far better shape and footing then we were a few years back when even the mascot could of got the job when Blunt was cheap and Chearful and we paid for it.


We will have endless  interested parties there are some good up and coming managers in the football league who would suit us.

If you believe any of this you're an idiot, sorry to say.

Ask yourself why he was played out of position...

Well I think that is obvious, not really my point though!

[Blue Green Algae]

The point is, a small section of our fans seem to think Alfie May was unplayable and it was a catastrophic decision to get rid of him. Yet when he went, to a team in the league below, I suspect the outpouring wasn't quite so strong.

Max Watters is another example. Did absolutely nothing for us, went on to command quite a fee and all of a sudden we've messed up.

Some players just don't work at some clubs. Yet Darren Moore seems to be held responsible for these "terrible" decisions, whilst being given no credit for what he achieved (before he jumped ship).

This is all correct.

What about the mess that he left when he went though?
He would have been a lot better thought of if he had shown a bit more loyalty. He apparently lost interest in us as soon as Wednesday showed an interest.

[Chris Black come back]

Was commenting on May and Watters being at best average with us, and various Nostradamus among us saying they predicted their future improvement elsewhere.

Moore I am not convinced isn’t some kind of robot. Without any passion wherever he manages. Didn’t leave us in a great place as he seems only able to manage Premier League youngsters but we did pretty well when he was here. Both those two points can be true.

[Blue Green Algae]

Another weird thing about some football fans is their need for everyone to be loyal to their club. It's big business. Talented and successful people move on to bigger and better things. Moore did it, McCann did it, Saunders did it. It was ever thus. For quite a while McCann was labelled as a snake. Seems to have been forgiven (for now).

The ones who don't do it (e.g. SOD) often get rewarded with their P45.

[Chris Black come back]

Best you can hope for is someone like McCann who sounds like he gives a shit, when he is here. Moore was so unbelievable dispassionate he could have been managing us, Real Madrid or Armthorpe Welfare.

[Bentley Bullet]

In terms of disloyalty, that's the pelanty you pay for hiring the likes of Darren Moore.

[Alickismyhero]

I have seen nothing to suggest that McC has had connection with another club.

If there is no truth in the rumour  then the club/Mc will deny it tomorrow.

If no statement is made its probably true.
