tinman85 Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 I think the point the poster is trying to make is why on earth are we keeping hold of LJ when there are plenty of experienced available managers on the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Sheffield United fans would agree with me, guiding them to their lowest finish for over 30 years when he was manager We do need another record breaker.

Fair enough, ignore his other records, e.g. the only Southampton manager to ever gain back to back promotions to take them into the premier league, they weren't out of the top two in those seasons...

Only managers to be able to repeat is the likes of Steve Bruce, turnover of players with new team under Ferguson and a couple of others I can't remember after a few of these beers. But hopefully you get my drift. Everything depends on generating new chemistry and the passion to win. Colin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davefevs Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 I like Rosler for his pedigree as a player, and he's done decently at club level management.

So you'd reject a guy who took Saints from League One into the Premier League in two seasons, whilst setting a new record of eight successive league wins and never being outside the top two...in all that time? And that's on top what he did at Scunthorpe...when he took them from league one into the championship, and when they were relegated he took them straight back up the next season...

shelts Posted January 22, 2017 Report Share Posted January 22, 2017 A lot of paper talk linking us with Rowett , then also linking him with Norwich . Would like a manager that would get our players out of their comfort zone. Not sure who. A lot saying a yes man puppet for the owner, who is likely to be one of them?

Were a laughing stock. No credibility. Give us a name who can restore our lost pride, a manager people might like at their club, a sought after chap.
