SuperWesIrishWizard 0 Posted November 29, 2008 We cant tarnish Lee Clark with Roeder''s brush.And before anybody says we can, just remember that Nigel Worthington was the assistant manager to Bryan Hamilton.When the club appointed Worthington it was the cheap option, it also worked. Maybe the right man for the job is already sitting on the right bench? We could give him a ''caretaker'' role, and see if he can get a few wins. If he doesn''t, then he goes soon.I think that seems like the way forward, he knows the players, he knows the staff.A completely new outlook without another Roeder-esque cleansing.

Shyster 0 Posted November 30, 2008 [quote user="thecanaryfan"]Right now I would have Basil Brush as manager so hell yeah.[/quote]Difficult to say - has Clark lost the dressing room along with Roeder or do the players have respect for the former and would fair better without the inteference of the latter? One things certain and that is at least Clark is the familiar face in the technical area, a place that Roeder is strangely averse to - not so strange I hear people cry, because he can get a better view of the action from being up in the stand, which is nice considering he gets paid well to spectate whilst fans part with their hard earned to do the same.Is it true that Roeder sits in his car at Colney?

Syteanric 1 Posted November 30, 2008 would Roeder hire anyone other than a bloody yes man to work with him?Id weep if clarke was appointed manager.... a rookie manager in a relegation fight? Watford have taken the risk.. we cant afford to.jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barry Brockes 147 Posted November 30, 2008 According to the Mail On Sunday he had his second interview at Huddersfield this past week and will be taking up the Manager''s job there this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
komakino 272 Posted November 30, 2008 My info from Carrow Road suggest that Roeder is disliked by the players, finding him aloof and unapproachable. If this is the case, then he is finished. Clarke IS liked by the players however. That said, I don''t think Clark is here for anything other than the short term. He is here to further his career and who can blame him?

Jimmy Bone - Superstar 2 Posted November 30, 2008 If Clarke does go to Huddersfield as Manager, then surely this would be an ideal time for us to get shot of Roeder before he is allowed to bring in another assistant.Also, it would be one less to have to pay off the contract of.

yellabelly 0 Posted December 1, 2008 I dont see Clarke in the same mould as Roeder- in fact I think if anything he''s held it together because Roeder is so useless - without him I think Roeder will struggle even more and I really think it''s time for a change. Roeder has no man management skills- that is so obvious the way he publicly slates individual players - he should look to Harry Redknap to see how you get the best out of a player. What he has done at Tottenham in the last few weeks working with the same players proves that there are ways to get the best out of your players with a pat on the back - you don''t have to ball out players -I honestly believe that Roeder has lost the dressing room and the sooner he goes the better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
