Mr Popodopolous Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Now this isn't about us but it could have some positive implications moving forward. Heavily linked with Stoke it seems- him leaving Derby at a vital stage of the season could well scupper them a bit...or perhaps even for a while giving them a lot of ground to make up if they have a few poor weeks.

And Its Smith Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 4 hours ago, The Bard said: If you were Rowett, why on earth would you join Stoke??? Because they are an established Premier League team with a decent squad and a chairman who backs his manager. He would get a big payrise and he knows more than anyone that a managers job is never safe. Seems a no-brainer move to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say a no guarantee with Derby , maybe his experience with Brum will make him move. The other aspect which should be taken into consideration, is it’s unlikely to mean he has to move. Accept the job next Thursday , you know it makes sense !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should remember what happened at Birmingham - he did a fantastic job but was still sacked. If I was him I would definitely take the opportunity in the PL whilst my stock is high after that experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Derby are a bigger club than Stoke. If Rowett fancies himself as a prem manager he’s better off staying where he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Be heavily into negotiations all next week please. It's a big decision to make so a little bit of gardening leave next Thursday & Friday will give you enough time to alienate you from your present club.

MarcusX Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Billic bow 1/8 with some bookies so I imagine there’s some inside info there, looks unlikely it’ll be rowett based on that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it’s boring doing the same thing every season? Not challenging for anything but staying clear from the drop? Why don’t these clubs take a risk and change their dynamic and philosophy, you never know you could do a Leicester. Just don’t take our manager.

It would obviously be great if he left now for us.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underhanded Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Don't think it would be as bad a move as some are making out. Arguably Derby have a bigger fanbase and potentially better facilities, but Stoke have been well run for years now and actually have some excellent players still on their books.

If he joins Stoke he’ll get a a pay rise and there is a good chance he can keep them in the Premier League. Even if Stoke are relegated the chairman would probably back him in the Championship next season. If he fails, and gets the sack at some point, he leaves with a big payoff. For me staying with Derby is more of a risk. There’s no guarantee that Derby will be promoted and, if not, it might get the sack next season with a smaller payoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
