Lrrr Posted November 5, 2020 Report Share Posted November 5, 2020 10 hours ago, Taz said: Yep, it has Rooney written all over it. Don't think they'd do it? See Lampard.... If for some reason Rooney didn't get it, then Johnson would be a plausible option. However if it did happen, can you imagine him trying to manage Rooney? He'd probably end up sticking him in goal with his square pegs..... I wonder if Mel's (won't be him soon but heck) recent experience with Frank as a less experienced coach being successful could persuade him to give Liam Rosenior a go, would be really interested to see him in a top job.

Didn’t pull up any trees IIRC.

It’s a shame as the whole experience seems to have put him off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City oz Posted November 8, 2020 Report Share Posted November 8, 2020 On 04/11/2020 at 02:25, OneTeamInBristol said: Richie Wellens not in charge of Swindon tonight against Argyle as he’s off to Salford. Would LJ go there? (Ignoring the fact that Swindon couldn’t afford him) I hope LJ has grown up a bit since his departure at BS3. He may also have gotten over his big headed and vain persona now he has had time to reflect on where he went wrong. He would fit in probably well at Swindon and League one football seems to be suitable to his ability. Lets face it he is a good manager at this tier of football. They are now out of the FA Cup after yesterdays result against Darlington and most probably Forest Green will also beet them in the week in the group stage of the other cup. so only the league to concentrate on from here on.

I wouldn't reccomend him coming here there's massive problems behind the scenes with Power and the sooner he goes this club can move on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pongo88 Posted November 8, 2020 Report Share Posted November 8, 2020 Wherever LJ ends up depends on clubs options of his ability. He seems to have a high opinion of his ability so I’m sure he’s holding out for a Championship club, but if nothing materialises he’ll have to downgrade his expectations. He’s been well paid over the years and would have received a good payoff when sacked by City so he can afford to take his time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
