What a ridiculous thread, as if he's going to walk away from the most lucrative contract he'll ever have.
Maybe if he stopped signing shit like McLean he might not be sacked at the end of the season.

He won't walk of course - unless another job is offered (highly, highly unlikely) If he wants to leave he'll contrive to embarrass the top brass into sacking him - with a nice compensation package - by picking random formations, picking out of form players each week, blaming players not for following his instructions and hint that Scholes and Carto are a hindrance rather than a support

No he won’t walk, if he’s as good a manager as his reputation before joining us suggests then he’ll get us going.

No chance he would walk,but if he did and took McClean with him,it would be worth it.

He won’t walk, but I’m sure he’s feeling the pressure already. To get booed off the pitch in your first home game as manager isn’t good and shows the feeling of discontent around the place. God help us if we don’t win Wednesday.

for me rowett needs to get bojan in the team and give him a run of ten games.he is our most creative player he can make things happen. we have the players they just need to be played.

I feel that he doesn’t really rate Bojan and doesn’t think he’s physically strong enough for the Championship. He said as much on Saturday as to why he left him out. Load of bollocks if you ask me. Besides Gallagher’s assault on Allen they weren’t a particularly strong and physical team were they.

Pressure goes with the job and it's how he manages it that sets him apart. Clearly something is wrong and needs sorting. My view is that Mark Cartwright has run his time with Stoke City.

Yet he couldn't back himself in January to keep us up. Did we even go in for him. If not why did Derby offer him a new and improved contract out of the blue?

Much as I like him Bojan is not cut out for British football. All players have to defend as well as attack and Bojan is hopeless at defence. In fact we do not have any good MF defenders; Allan will chase and harry but can't tackle without getting booked. We have not had any quality MF who could defend since Whelan and N'Zonzi apart from Cameron who was pretty good at defending in front of the back line but hopeless going forward.

Wouldn't blame him if the transfer team really are as poor as it looks. If he had wanted to join a circus he would have been a clown

He admitted (50 secs in on his introductory interview with the press on the OS) that he was aware of the interest in Jan. He backed himself to reach the Prem with Derby, fair enough, but failed. If he thought the better option was to seek a move (as happened in May) to us, a team then on a slide in the Prem he could have done so. His 'good agent' could easily have made noises about seeking permission to speak to us. He didn't. Had he moved in Jan would it have kept us up? We'll never know but we looked too far gone as Lambert found out. Would Rowett's approach have changed the outcome, doubtful. He didn't back his own ability in Jan with us and we'd never have heard from him again if Derby had gone up regardless of our plight. As Scholes (spit) said, he's won nothing yet.

Being aware of interest isn't having an offer put to you, I could say I was aware of it too as it was being mentioned in papers etc, that still doesn't mean an approach was made. So, he hasn't won anything, big deal, he's shown in his previous jobs he can put a team together to do well in this league and thats why he's here, as I've said before people wanted young, a new face etc, and thats what we got with added experience of this league, now he needs time to do what he was brought in for, not bull shit threads like this 3 games into the season.

Too many hopes pinned on Bojan. As much as I would love it, I don’t think it’s going to happen with him.

He'd be a laughing stock if he walked. Would he though, what if he said promises were made and not kept, his discretion with transfers was fettered and that decisions around the squad were being made without consulting him. He could say his position had been completely undermined and was no longer tenable. It that scenario I don't think he'd be a laughing stock however it won't happen, coz avarice will kick in and he'll take a payoff with the mutual non disclosure clauses not likely to be offered a severance package because that requires both sides to want a “divorce”. He could tell them to take their job and shove it. That would take balls but might be what’s needed to bring the board to their senses.

3 pages and counting because someone overheard someone say something? Is this the same impeccable source that heard Hughes had been sacked in the bogs while he was still mid log?

Don't think GR will walk
Do think, we will have West Ham style ' sack the board ' chants Or Some sort of scholes / carto protest
Before the season is out
GR just has to stay cool and be open and honest ,because the fans anger is with the way the club is being run not GR personally
Scholes / carto /JC want Him to walk out and for that reason I think he will stay !

Wouldn't look good if he walked. But I do think he has only just realised what a rotten club he has walked into.
He has the pressure off the people that run the club to do well, we all know the owners have not got a clue when it comes to all things football and we seem to have inherited quite a few clueless fans also - who all seemed to think we would score 100+ pts.
He is now realising what a monumental task he has got in front of him just to try and get a win on the board and then try and steady the ship and keep us a float.
Unless he can get 5 or 6 quality players in loan then He is a sitting duck - as it seems only promotion will do for fans and board and therefore must know that there is a chance he could be axed fairly quickly.
He may look at his team after the loan window has finished and if he is not happy then it is not beyond the realms that if we are still in an irreversible situation - he could walk before he gets pushed.
What we need to realise is that we actually have a poor squad of players and it is going to take a huge effort and time to re-build.
Afobe and Allen are the only genuine players of any quality we have in the squad at the moment. Crouch is a good sub and Ince is a good championship player and that is about it.

You could argue that his reputation and "aura" has actually compounded our problems and inhibited our playing style over the last two years. Sparky came back from the Euros with a beard and a vision.

Managers come here and they're shit. Players come here and they're shit. You know what the common denominators are? The owners and the board, that's what! It's those penny pinching fuckwits that should walk.
