Great save from Kaminsky in extra time tom help Charlton get a point. Always rated him, surprised to see him at lowly Charlton.

This very much. Don't google his coaching style mind...

If I'm honest, I don't know that much about Rowett, but sounds like he's realistically as good as we're going to get, with the current whoppers overseeing it.

And he'll send them down on the last game of the season

Fair doos! I was just going of his wiki stats, that don't look good on paper

Birmingham - took over when they were bottom 3, no money to spend and by the time he was sacked by their new owners they were in the top 6 Derby - play-offs in his only season Stoke - sacked after 6 months - but nobody has done well there Millwall - kept them up and had them top half / play-off chasing for 2-3 years Birmingham - took over with 8 games remaining, won 3 but they went down Oxford - took over with them struggling near the bottom, kept them up with a weak side, sacked this season with them struggling Personally I think he's ideal for us both in our current situation and as someone who could build us up again on a limited budget. But under Rudy and Suhail I suspect it won't work out because he won't be given the opportunity to do the job, just like Eustace wasn't.

West Brom won't beat Stoke tomorrow.

And they will also pay a real wage, not an apprentice salary for a senior role.

I’m still unsure where people’s confidence in WBA is coming from.

Sorry am I missing something here!? What has rowet done as a manager that's impressive, looks like he just plods from 1 job to the next achieving nothing Dean smith isn't exactly the most inspiring, but at least he's shown he can get a lot out of mediocre teams at this level

Will Rowett take it though. Leicester looking also and he played for them

Rowett now 1/3

I certainly know which one of these two I would trust more.

Indeed, but probably our best chance as a club is to get someone like him in and back him / let him run the show, as it was with Eustace. Because people like Eustace and Rowett will have forgotten more about Championship football than the likes of Suhail and Rudy will ever know.

Looking like a change of formation and a very surprising lineup tomorrow, allegedly 🤨

Over a few heads this one but I'm with you!!!

I think this is the key, he's probably the best out there right now, for the situation we've got ourselves into. He's probably not the guy to continue the project/journey we're supposedly on.

Seems to have an impact early in his tenure but then tends to fall away. Would have preferred a short term deal but probably won't happen. One thing, if it is Rowett it won't be pretty but if it keeps up I'll take it

If Rowett is top of our list then I may have to re-evaluate my assessment of the people running the club in that maybe they aren't totally clueless as to what we need, because I think even if he doesn't enthuse you his CV is probably the most suited to our predicament of all the options out there and it would be unusually sensible for our lot to put that first. I suppose the next question would be whether he would come then. Is he going to sit and be told what he can and can't do by Rudy Gestede? Would he take it until the summer like he did at Birmingham and then see how the land lies? There seems to be an assumption that he would take it, which you would certainly hope he would given his last 2-3 clubs and the manner in which he left Oxford, but he can't really afford to get this next move wrong and I worry he'd tell Rudy and Suhail to 'do one'

Feels like Rowett is the antithesis of what RG was claiming to be looking for in a manager? Thought he was more Eustace than JDT in his approach?

Will be suddenly turn the likes of De Neve and Henriksson into good players? No, of course not. But he will get us organised and competive. He's far superior to Ismael.

I have a concern for Rowett, will he improve us? Maybe, but I don't think by much. I suppose he's the best out of a bad bunch, let's hope it's true.

Rowett is a great appointment - best they could have credibly got.

I'm not Nixon fan but he's mostly on the ball here with recent events.
