I think he did better job at Wednesday than he gets credit for. I think he did - Wednesday fans generally weren`t happy about him being given the Spanish archer. It seems like a new foreign owner wanted his own man so out you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipps69 Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Regarding JP, he has job security here & seems settled in the area. Football management & coaching positions aren't that easy to find. You'll find that a lot of managers / head coaches would like to take their own team of assistant / coaches with them, so the fact that he could of been released now & be looking for another job along with another 100 plus people, I think he will be happy that he has the security of a job & see how things pan out. Who knows, SC may land the S****horpe, Barnsley or Rotherham job & may want JP to go with him but then SC maybe told that he has to work with the staff that are already there & that then means another job opportunity missed.

Lanterne Rouge Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 If he did take it and they still go down I`m sure he wouldn`t want that on his CV as well. He`s got a good spot here, is well respected and appreciated and seems happy so why move? It`s hardly as if Rotherham are Chelsea or something.

All clubs have ambitions but the likelihood of Rotherham reaching a sustainable level above where they are at the moment seems pretty slim. Couldn't agree more. Look at attendances, Rotherham were lucky to last more than one season in the championship, take Yeovil for example. Their best bet is to prepare for league one now or they face the threat of free fall due to lack of consistency. As for bristol city we are comfortably a mid/lower championship team in theory. Now we've lee Johnson I can only expect we will be looking at champions league slots in the next couple of years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True enough and I'd not be over the moon with him as a manager here for that reason but picking up a point on a regular basis is really not something I want Rotherham doing at this point in time...

screech Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 I think the club has seen Pemberton alright, he's survived managers being given the boot and is well thought of. I can't imagine he would sacrifice job security for a brief fling at Rotherham, the best you can hope for at Rotherham is keeping the club up year after year on a small budget.

He may not want to go with SC but he may well have that option while having the current job security of being here at City where he is clearly well thought of. I guess it depends on how much of gambler JP is, does he stay here where him & his family are seemingly settled or take the risk (if the opportunity arises) of a management position, which as mentioned above at 51 years old is a risk or follow SC to either of the clubs I mentioned earlier? All of which I would guess have a lower budget than us, which would probably result in a drop in wage......... Looking at that reasoning, I think he'd be silly to move & uproot his family & lose what seems to be very secure job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 I think you`re right. He`s got the closest thing there ever is in football to a secure position ATM and he`s sensible enough to see that I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One BCFC Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Redfearn actually has done OK considering they probably have the weakest squad in the League and they had a worse start than us. Around December/January I was worried about how good their form was getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samo II Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Don't think Pemberton would even look twice at that job TBH. He's first team coach here, and his stint with Wade as carertaker will only have solidified his postion, and likely influence over footballing matters here. People saying he'll be upset he wasn't offered the job here; I'm not too sure. He's a smart man, and while he may or may not have had much say under SC beyond coaching, I think in the system we'll be working with going forwards, Permberton's contribution will be vital, and he knows that.

Ashtonwurzel Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 I could see JP wanting and getting this job. The timing might be a co-incidence but with LJ rumoured to be wanting to bring in his own number 2 and considering the great job JP and WE did "holding the fort" at City I can see him being a wanted man.

Mark Robins would be my guess, did well there last time. http://www.oddschecker.com/football/football-specials/rotherham/next-permanent-manager I would have said Mark Cooper. Tamworth to Rotherham isn't too much of a commute. Providing his phone is on and he's not still in Tenerife Saying that, who wants to take charge of a relegation-threatened side at this point in the season? Post transfer window 'n' all....

Major Isewater Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 I have a soft spot for the Millers supporters after their gracious response to our 3-0 win that lead to our promotion the time before last .
