Chichcan 148 Posted June 27, 2023 I can see this being Dean's future now. With that promotion on his CV there'll always be a job for him at teams like Wednesday, Middlesbrough etc who feel they should be in the Premier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the main thing that will hold Deano back is that he’s a crap manager. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Google Bot 3,329 Posted June 27, 2023 Thought he was taking his time? Probably scared no offers would come in is why he said that. Still, it's a big club. Can only wish him well, really, no point being bitter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,760 Posted June 27, 2023 Well he got a job with us in the prem, then Leicester in the prem. I reckon he'll get a championship job even if it's not Wednesday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pyro Pete 1,925 Posted June 27, 2023 Not bothered either way. Ok, it didn't work out here. Or Leicester and ultimately, Villa. But he could probably go back to a mid-table Championship club. Oh, hang-on. That's us now, isn't it. F***. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

City fan 78 Posted June 27, 2023 Why give him a hard time, that tool Wagner has hardly been a massive success since he's been manager. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,231 Posted June 27, 2023 The squad was always the bigger issue, and that was clear when both he and now Wagner have come in and failed with virtually the same set of players. I still feel it's a shame we let Daniel go in the manner we did but as a result I hope we give Wagner time to rebuild. Smith was never the right man for us at the time, no doubt a decent manager in the past but he wasn't a fit for our situation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No he hasn't but with pre season and the opportunity to get a couple of players in , let's give him the benefit of the doubt if after ten games were struggling we will then have a decision to make!

I guess we'll find out for real in a few months. If Smith came in now we'd probably all have a much better experience, I think anyone following in Farke's footsteps with a squad that was lacking backbone and experience in key areas was screwed really. Shame it went so sour really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
