Liam Rosenior


Is every sacked manager a failure or is it not that simplistic? Would we not take Steve Cooper because he was sacked and a failure?
Last time I looked Cooper was working at a higher level than the Championship

Rosenior unfortunately failed in the Championship
 
Blackburn didn’t think Mowbray was good enough to renew his contract either.
I wish people would bore off with Messiah Mowbray

From the Hull owner

Asked to expand on how his ideas differed from those of Rosenior, Ilicali said: "I want offensive football. I want an attacking, entertaining team. I said it from the first minute I bought this club.
"I said I would rather lose 3-2 than have a boring 0-0. If you are counting the points and draw every game 0-0 you are going to get relegated. If you lose 3-2, it means you will win another game 4-1.
"My football brain is completely full of a successful and entertaining football style. Liam has a great philosophy but there are different styles of football in the world - Liam's direction can be successful but we want to see different things.
"It is not good for me to go to a coach and ask him to play a different way when he has a certain style of football."

For what it’s worth I wasn’t against the Mowbray sacking.

All I’m saying is that you can’t write a manager off just because another team thinks they aren’t good enough.
 
Mowbray who was here for about 15 or 16 months and wouldn't have walked away, hmm.
He didn’t complete a full season. I suppose by our very low standards he was here a while mind. He was hardly the second coming of Sir Alex was he? Sacked as soon as he started to speak out. The other one didn’t wait to be sacked. He walked. Even Beale spoke out. Then got sacked.

Thats fair comments from the owner....Dodds would never have got 3 months under his ownership
 
Anyone who mentions Cooper always seems to forget just how much money they spent
But clubs such as Forest, Luton, Burnley, Sheff Utd, Ipswich etc need to spend upwards of £200m just to have a fighting chance of staying in the premier league never mind be "successful"

I’m not a massive fan of Roseinor, but why would anyone listen to the Hull owner?
 
Are you talking to stay in the Championship or finish top 2?

Loans are a big part of championship success and if you can hit on with a couple of loans such as an Amad or two then expenditure should/could be minimal
Ipswich didn’t spend that much.

I just think cooper is extremely overrated on here because Premier League
