I’d like Rowett or Duff. Not sure either would come mind.
My mate has mentioned Rowett a few times and it wouldn't work
A run of 3/4 bad games and he would have the fanbase against him because of his Millwall connections
That would be dumb. He played for us first. We could and should have hired him before Millwall did.
He did a good job at Millwall. They’ve done absolutely nothing since he left.
Rowett played 13 games for us Managed millwall for 196
Loses 3/4 in a row and which one do you think the fans are likely to remember
All I'm saying is keeping fans onside is a big thing and Peeters Millwall connection went against him as soon as results did and I could see the same happening to Rowett

This.
Chris Powell played for Palace.
The issue is, that part of the reason Rowett left Millwall (apart from the obvious) was because he no longer wished to commute down from the midlands. Can't see him joining us sadly.
Scott keeps banging on about getting players in who have experience with promotions out of league 1. Time to get a manager in with the same experience and pedigree to get us out of this tin pot league!
No point targeting so called quality players to mount a promotion push and have them managed/coached by someone with no success at all at any level!

No one gave a sh!t about Peeters’ Millwall connection. He was sacked because he lost the ability to win games.
Powell started at Palace. Rowett is a good manager, simple as that. Sadly, he’s too good for us right now.
My son is a nutter bought tickets for Blackpool and Derby, he’s taking his Derby ticket back, he’s had enough of him.
I got train tickets for Derby(haven't got round to buying match tickey yet) wondering if i can flog train tickets now as they are non refundable, either that or just spend a day in Derby and come home 🤣
@paulie8290 How many have you got and how much were they?
Just the 1 adult return and it was £37
No worries mate, I need 2 and the current price is about the same. Sorry!
I've not posted yet on my thoughts. However, having 'been awake' most of the night worrying about our plight (I know stupid isn't it!), it's now time, today, for MA to go. I was calling for his head previously, but then thought, OK give him the window to get his players in and see what transpires. I was optimistic before yesterday's game, new striker, new formation, newish midfield, BUT, same defence! Why? He had REG and Gillesphey on the bench, yet started with Ness and Jones (I rate Jones but he's off form at the moment). Ness isn't good enough. We started brightly, but yet another defensive error and we're 1 down. Obviously MA did zilch at ht, and we went 2 down within minutes. STILL no changes and MA had all the passion of a dead parrot! He looked lost, uninterested and bereft of ideas, that to me says everything! He MUST go or we're going down! Even Alfie looks completely pissed off....that tells a story in its own right! Get rid now!
If he does go we need to go with experience even if its just to know how to pick up enough wins and points to scrape to safety
to even have to say that is an embarrassment for our club! getting appleton in was one of the biggest mistakes our club has made in recent times and thats quite an achievement !!
GET MICHAEL DUFF he doesn't stand for shirkers, knows how to get the best out of Alfie and kept a league 2 level Cheltenham squad up with ease...oh and by the way the 2 wing backs are f##k#n# woeful!!
We played well first half yesterday and I expected a response in the second half after being behind undeservedly.
Goals happen at shit times and yesterday was definitely one of those because it would’ve totally ruined whatever was said the dressing room.
What baffled me is that he appeared to accept that the game was beyond our reach and let the XI on the pitch flail in desperation for 30 minutes rather than do anything about it. Kanu should’ve been thrown on 20 minutes earlier than he was.
It will never work if we stick to the same cycle, we need to give a manager time to work with the players that he recruited.
What have you seen from Appleton to suggest he can coach a team to promotion next season?
All I can see is a ongoing cloud of future despair, I think we will reprise this argument ad infinitum until we luck in on a Curbishley, who I think had the cushion of no transfer windows.

Given how he did at Southampton and Stoke
Cant fault though how he did as Manager whilst at Luton though
Get rid now!

Honestly, it was so bad yesterday I am convinced that unless things change quickly we could be in League 2 next season.
Let that sink in and there is no justification whatsoever to keep Appleton.
Appleton has lost the fans, lost some of the players. Time will not heal this
im hanging on Dubai's words here but I'm hoping the decision to wield the axe has been made
