Rooney sacked

[rugbyterrier]

He's gone, Rowatt in til end of season according to Blues mate.

[VLP Fan Club]

They’ll pull clear.

Gobsmacked with 3 wins in 19 Moore hasn’t gone before him.

[royrace]

Talk about history repeating itself! At least they have had the good sense to act swiftly.

[nicovaesen]

Moore out Rooney in

[stevvy]

To think, when they got rid of Eustace they were what, 7th? It's rinse and repeat from when they sacked Rowett to get in a 'name, in Zola, and went from the playoffs to struggling to survive.

It's hilarious seeing them make the same mistake as the previous owners did years ago.

Their American owners don't accept mediocrity. Apparently we still do, big month ahead for DM.

For what reason would you want this guy managing our football club? We have a squad this is worse than Birminghams, and he's never achieved anything more than a 28% win record.

Let's stop autograph hunting and start thinking logically

[royrace]

Be interesting to see how much Rooney wants to be a coach. Surely won't get another championship job and will have to look to the lower leagues. I think that's probably the best place for a young coach to start anyhow.

[bells ringing :)]

Mighth ave to give Moore a new contract, birmingham might come sniffing around. Remember thats why we acted so quickly to get Moore in , in the first place right. What with Real Madrid and barca at the time sniffind around. Yes we were supposed to lose yesterday i accept that, but the manner of the defeat , like many of the defeats bar Boro. They were defeats we deserved and should have got beat by more. Nagle your American counter parts have acted, why don't you take the hint ?

[irverino]

Nothing confirmed by BCFC but won't be surprised if the American owners at St Andrews don't rectify what is a dreadful appointment by them soon......More to go this week at Ewood Park, Carrow Road or even JSS...HNY.

[Waterloo Terrier]

Reality has started to bite now. We are bang up against it. We need players and the club to make a decision on the manager now really, as they’ve got a rare fortnight without a league game. Otherwise we are done for.

The difference being that they brought Rooney in because of his name, not his managerial credentials, of which he has none. His best win ratio is 28%.

DMs lowest win ratio prior to Huddersfield Town is 44.8%. Whether you like it or not, DM is a class apart from Wayne Rooney.

Football is a fickle game. We spank Blackburn, undeservedly lose to M'Boro and DM then deserves January at least, then we expectedly lose to Leicester and fans are back to wanting his head on a plate.

Totally.
You'd think we were expected to win at Leicester reading this board.

Performances have improved a lot during a time where literally every fit senior player is playing in the starting XI.

I dont get why Birmingham sacking Rooney has any relevance to us or Moore.
He took over a side full of confidence and winning,,sat in the play off spots and has transformed it into a relegation side with 10 points from 15 games.

Moore took over a struggling side and has pretty much kept it on the same points per game ratio as he found it, whilst contending with a hell of a lot of injuries in an already thin squad.

Lets give him some fresh players in this window and allow him to build a team he wants.
If he fails he fails, but it seems crazy to ditch him just at the point hes improving the way we play and when he can build the squad up a bit.

I'd take Colleen Rooney at this point.

Rotherham found tough opponents Blackburn & Middlesbrough in points giving mood too.....They took FOUR off them both over festive period, Rovers/Boro fans Xmas/NY to forget.

Do you think Brum fans expected to win at Leeds? Probably not, but at least their owners have swallowed their pride and seemingly admitting they have made a mistake. 3 wins in 19 isn’t an acceptable win ratio, especially when there has been games within them 19 where we haven’t even posed a threat or dared to come out of our own half. We’ve also lost games with a near full team.

I am willing to accept performances have improved, a step in the right direction. However, realistically he should be gone.

[irverino]

All eyes on BCFC SM outlets at 11am......NOW CONFIRMED, ROONEY GONE.

[frankyb]

Cold hard facts of Moores tenure.

Played - 19... Won = 3.... Drawn = 8.... Lost = 8 Total Points = 17... Win % - 15.79

Mark Fotheringham.

Played = 21...... Won = 5.... Drawn = 6... Lost = 10.... Total points 21.... Win % 23.81


Lets be honest, we arent going to beat citeh, so his plymouth game his 21st game even if he gets a win, hes still 1 point worse off than Fotheringham who many deem as the worst manager of a generation, who was also sacked 6 games too late.... How long are the board going to leave it? Lose to Plymouth and it will be curtains and massive games afterwards that will basically seal our fate changing a manager mid jan would be ridicuous, but leaving it until feb would be sleepwalking into relegation. If the board are thinking hes one game away from the sack then they should act now and not dilly dally.

Moore was 2 from 15.... we should have done the same.

'Unfortunately, Wayne's (DM's) time with us did not go as planned & we have decided to move in a different direction'.......Don't suppose Gary Cook (BCFC) would mind too much if we borrowed his statement.

[Wagner Uber Alles]

Rooney is simply not good enough, he will have to drop his expectations and manage a team like Manchester United first if he wants to go for a big job in the future…

Yes we were near the bottom but we were playing better than now. I was confident of us staying up under Warnock but have no confidence of us staying up now.

I accept that we have a very weak squad regardless of the manager. I'm still trying to fathom out why Nagle bought the club. It's like buying a house and then leaving it empty to detiorate.

and Warnocks stats for his recent tenure at Town ?

DM's stats are horrendous and while I accept our resources are poor he simply hasn't figured out a way to create a competetive winning side..and delivered a fair amount of dull boring football along the way. There's a big question mark over him being given the transfer window to improve things...because if that fails, we're relegated.

Warnock had us in the relegation spots over a few games this season, Moore hasn't
