    Match Thread Supporter's Meeting with Doug King Match Thread

    I think it’s fair to ask; Was there a cutoff date for MR to decide on an assistant? And if so, was MR aware of it? Otherwise, why bother speaking to Ramsey at Ryton? A conversation that went really well, with another discussion about wages anticipated. Was the reason given to CR for not...

    Match Thread Supporter's Meeting with Doug King Match Thread

    Yep. The situation appears to read that DK was done by that point and waiting for the next really bad result/performance.. which didn’t really materialize until Derby. The timing aspect of getting in an assistant wasn’t mentioned at the forum and it’s created an information gap. MR and AV’s...

    I wouldn’t have said a word if I wasn’t sure I knew differently. The connection is reliable, they are both former players, turned coaches that used to work together and are friends. It was relayed to me on October 9th about the talks with MR and how well they went. Wages was the next...

    Timing was given as the reason. Unfortunately for the owner, after denying Ramsey, we went on to draw away at QPR then beat Luton at home and Boro away. Derby was poor but could’ve been very different if he hadn’t denied Ramsey. We’ll never know.

    We could’ve had Ramsey in as a #2 but the owner denied it.

    That appears not to be entirely true.. unless DK put an unspoken time limit on the search. Edit to add; Or possibly, the reason given to the candidate wasn’t honest.

    SBT ~ Life Pick a fucking side, stick to it, give pelters to those that don’t agree with you and bigger pelters to those that don’t pick a side. On this particular subject; I believe some of what was said but feel that there were things omitted and some spin. Either way, we’ve got to move on...

    We did. CR spoke with MR at Ryton on October 9th. The performance director subsequently called CR to tell him the owner didn’t think the timing was right. That was on, or prior to October 14th.

    Dean austin

    Given DK is a businessman and not experienced in the game; I think it’s more than valid to ask who’s advising the owner on recruiting the new manager. I think Austin’s done a decent job in his current position but I’m not convinced he should be the owners go-to for advice on the new manager...

    The owner said that MR was responsible for getting in an assistant and one never materialized. Chris Ramsey spoke to MR at Ryton on October 9th. The appointment got vetoed on, or before October 14th. The reason given was that the owner thought the timing wasn’t right. So MR must have known...

    Match Thread Supporter's Meeting with Doug King Match Thread

    King might as well have waited and sacked Robins just before Christmas if that was his thinking. He obviously didn’t have faith that MR could do it alone and he’s hardly endorsed the existing coaches tonight. Waiting and tempting relegation is a big issue for him… so he isn’t waiting until...
