Although I'm slightly underwhelmed, is it just me that thinks a lot of people are massively overreacting here? Exactly my thoughts. A bit underwhelming, hoped for a real statement of intent, but some are reacting to this as if we’ve just re-hired Fotheringham. |

If it's Darren Moore then it seems to me an incredibly risky move. Is he the best we can get? I like the fact Nagle is being bold and I'll back the new manager 100% but he surely gives us a lower chance of staying up than Warnock, and isn't the sort of high-profile name that would even unite let alone galvanise the fans. There will be a complete meltdown on here, which clearly doesn't matter, but that might carry over into the ground. And one of the reasons given for getting rid of Warnock was that the new man was now available. Moore has been available all along. Nagle only took over the club officially on the 22nd June, our sporting director was appointed on the 3rd of July. By the time the club had finished the interview process pre-season would have been over. It made perfect sense for Warnock to be here for the transition. |

I think much of the over reaction be down to the reasons given by the club.If everyone took a step back though maybe the press conference and what was said was done so to protect both the club and warnock.No one probably truly believes 7 games in the club have decided to put long term plan in place(especially as Moore has been available all summer) but also there must be reasons why they have.The fact that the club and warnock when he was re announced both said he would step aside when the time was right has given both parties the option of coming away from things without anything having to get ugly. |

Quote from Neil when he took over 'Happy to help the club stabilise through the transitional period' Takeover complete New people in higher up That is a transition complete. It was the plan. Whether we like it or not. Moaning like little children about it is getting boring. We would have all loved Neil to have stayed, but he isn't. I really hope whoever comes in does the job, can already see a lot of you queuing with pitchforks before we even know who it is. I cannot wait to resurrect this thread in time when you all have egg on your faces and think of how cringe some on your comments have been. Will you resurrect it if we're in league 1 next season, either ? We won't be! Lot of premature talk of relegation. Remember how bad the 2 before NW were. The squad isn't as bad as people make out. |

Calm your jets. I locked the poll and when I reviewed the threads there were two different discussions going on. Therefore if I closed one or merged it, it would be considered being ‘heavy handed’. Not good enough. I'm docking you a week's wages. I'm getting the Union involved. And yellow carding you. That means a month's, no lifetime, no a week's ban. When I decide to enforce my rules. Maybe. Up yours.  |

If Moore had replaced Fotheringham i think we’d all of taken that, i would any way.
It’s the fact it’s not Warnock that’s upset/confused/angered me.

Getting a club out of div.1 does not equate to getting a club out of the championship to the div.above {More likely the div.below}

I rarely get into the happy clapper - bedwetter discussions, but this is just bedwetting isn't it?
It's not even confirmed yet, wait and see! If it is Moore, it could've been a much worse appointment. If he was chosen as any of our last 4 or 5 appointments we'd be pretty happy I think. We all would've liked Warnock stay but what are we gonna do about it?

Although I'm slightly underwhelmed, is it just me that thinks a lot of people are massively overreacting here? I think it's more that it doesn't really add up with the big talk coming from the club. It essentially feels like a Warnock style appointment without having the calibre of Warnock. Definitely not a bad appointment - incredibly steady and I'm sure he'll be a lovely bloke behind the scenes - but does he create a buzz or feeling of making a 'step change'? Not so much, for me. |

I bet the players are thinking exactly the same as the supporters. What a shambles our football club is in. Promising champangne football appointing panda pop managers.

Fucking hell lads, you’d have thought we’d have appointed Mark Fotheringham from the sounds of it!
I understand the disappointment but I think a lot of people had their hopes quite high up with Graham Bloody Potter as manager. Im not sure whether I’d have swapped Warnock for him either personally. But, I think it’s a good appointment. He got Wednesday promoted despite being 5-0 down in the first leg. That takes some mentality!
“Moore worked hard to change the mindset and mentality of his staff during the run-up to the 2nd leg. He forged a togetherness and belief that anything was possible during training and tactical sessions. He even prepared his team with 'real time' penalty shoot outs where he re-enacted crowd noise, embellished by academy players and staff behind the goal to create a hostile atmosphere. He also analysed and shared numerous football come backs to build confidence and a will to win. Furthermore he reached out to the fans, producing a personal video message played before kick off to galvanise and ignite S6 on the night of the return fixture.”
That’s the sort of stuff I’d love in a manager! I think it’s a good appointment. Is he better on Warnock on paper? No, but if a club was going to snap him up, what else can we do when Warnock does leave? What is better, three years of Darren Moore or one year of Warnock?

Just showing your ignorance even further here. First couple of seasons especially, Hughes had Stoke playing brilliantly. Was a good appointment for them. Mistake they made, with hindsight, was probably staying loyal to him for a season too long. |

Darren Moore does not fit any of the criteria Edwards spelled out. Nixon has stated a lot of stuff, that has never been true about town in just this summer alone. One off the top of my head Phil Rawlings will be involved in the takeover? i would suspect Nixon hit record of sucess with town is way below what it use to be. I think he does unfortunately, with his experience at youth level, PL with West Brom & promotion from league one with Wednesday. Very little championship experience is worrying when Edwards said we wanted someone with a track record though, I agree. I thought this time we’d make a proper ‘stand up and take notice’ appointment. I can’t see how we feel he will take us up in 3 years, but obviously there’s some sort of ambitious plan in place which is fine. He did a season with West Brom in the Champs and they sacked him in 4th Place ! |

Mistake they made, with hindsight, was probably staying loyal to him for a season too long. Height of the ‘Stokealona’ era. Indeed. Also, people forget what a difficult ask it was to follow Pulis as the whole squad had been built around that type of football. To transform a really direct side into a footballing side was a great job initially. |

Oh the irony! Sheff Wednesday bizarrely sack Darren Moore, who replaces Neil Warnock who was bizarrely sacked by Huddersfield Town.
