Stuart Webber is the man at Norwich who is appointed Daniel Farke. He is director of football there. He also appointed David Wagner at Huddersfield.

They were awful. Watched the highlights. deserved at least 2 red cards Everton are playing for Lampard and showing some fighting spirit whilst Leeds aren't Some interesting games ahead and I see Everton winning against Brentford on Sunday

Daniel Farke, Gareth Ainsworth, Damien Johnson and Phillip Cocu have all drifted out whilst Carlos Carvalhal, Duncan Ferguson, Liam Manning and Simon Grayson have all drifted in.

I know he was as I know Pete outside the forum but he made a fair point that some people think we can't do better than Mowbray whether its on social media sites, etc and I find its annoying and very negative on our club and we should be aiming for better and promotion within 2 years of any managerial appointment. Aren't the players back in 4 and half weeks time for pre season?

I am grateful for league 1 promotion but this season after being second we should at least got a playoff place. Rovers need to get Daniel Farke and back him financially and give him 2 years to achieve promotion

Mowbray had 4 seasons to get us promotion and he failed. He has more money than other clubs. He was more than backed from the owners.. We were second on the 8th February and somehow we didn't make the playoffs so who is to blame for this? Surely Mowbray has to take the blame in the main. Also how are relegation candidate for next season before we even appoint his replacement?

Only Rothwell that has left Rovers who is key player. Lenihan and Nyambe are still in talks over a new contract. I'm not the biggest fan of Nyambe tho many on here are. Brereton is likely to leave but who knows what money we get next season cos Mowbray got money to spend during his time here. Huddersfield and Luton didn't have loads of money to spend over the past 2 seasons but recruit well and got a playoff place. Same as Barnsley previously season. If we make a good appointment then a promotion should be the target within 2 seasons.

You do it the right way not the way Watford have. You should approach the club first and agree terms first I want Farke. He is the right man to take us forward. I think Rovers will appoint DoF in the few days(based on my opinion and couple of other things) then bring in head coach who I would want Daniel Farke. I can understand your comment on Liam Manning but I think he is off to QPR imo. I agree with your last comment if we make the wrong appointment then it could be league 1. Who are backing to replace Mowbray? I backed Daniel Farke and got good odds on him.

Yes they might have appointed a new head coach for next season but deffo not the way they have done it one bit

Duncan Ferguson is now 4/1 now on Sky Bet Farke and Ainsworth still the favourites

Thankyou Tony Mowbray for the last 5 years and you have rebuilt the club I supported after Coyle left this club. I will remember our promotion season from League 1 and I will remember certain games from that season and the last 4 seasons in championship. But if Rovers are to get promote we need a new manager to take that next step. Sadly Mowbray hasn't been that man.

I think the Rovers manager/head coach job is a very attractive job for most good to decent managers/head coach out there. The things that's makes this manager/head coach job is a very attractive are we have a great academy that is producing players for the first team, you are allow time to build a team and allow to the football side of club, hopefully a decent squad there and could be good ones if the right signings are made where promotion can happen, hopefully a decent football transfer and wage budget. I am hopefully a good appointment can be made for the manager/head coach job. Are you happy with the 4 names you have seen linked with the job in Farke, Carvalhal, Ainsworth and Hughton? I think more than enough good/decent managers/head coaches will be interesting and want the job

I'm surprised by this news tbh if its happens but he appears to jump ahead of Gary Kirsten and Graham Ford. I thought he would be good choice as white ball head coach tbh

Watford have move fast for next season head coach appointment will be interesting how they go and how much time he will get. Massive Gamble by him

I wouldn't be surprised if Rovers did approach Farke's agent about taking over and whether he would be interested in the Job. This would be done secretly. I think we get 2 appointments in the next couple of weeks. The same Mark Warburton at QPR.

Well the news of Mowbray's departure has now been confirmed. You happy now?

Rovers official club statement

Hopefully some news this week then Well Mercer, I hope you are correct Bobby Mimms would be my choice It's time for Rovers and Waggott to commilunicate to the Rovers fans whether its Written statement or video interview on Rovers TV about the plan going forward and what the footballing structure will be

I agree Farke would pleased me, But he has always been head coach at Norwich so would be need a director of football and if so do we appoint them first.

Farke was head coach at Norwich and Their Sporting Director Stuart Webber picked Farke as head coach and work with him on signings. Webber had the contacts in Germany and he vastly improved their scouting network and together they got Norwich promoted twice. Webber did their signings but worked with Farke on them

If Nixon list of Farke, Ainsworth, Carvalhal, Hughton and couple of surprises on the shortlist is correct. Then I would like to know who these 2 surprises names are. Hopefully we can make an appointment quickly within the next couple of weeks, but if he is right that they haven't decide whether to appoint a manager or go Sporting Director/head coach structure.
