Is Sheffield United now a threat ? (1 Viewer)

[Alan Dugdales Moustache]

...One or two of you now worried about the possibility of TM being tempted by the sacking of Nigel Clough, this after the failure of SUFC in the race for the league 1 play off final.

Given that , as yet, there is no mention of Clough being sacked, is this all unnecessary worry that will come to nothing ?

I don't think they'll sack him. This will spur him on to want to improve on this season next year.

Has done a fairly decent job in the league (not many would turn their noses up at the play offs), and their cup run was pretty decent too.

As much as he has underachieved this season I can't see them sacking him, their cup exploits have perhaps negatively affected their league campaign. However if they start next season poorly, he could well be out the door.

Shouldn't this be in the Rumour thread

If TM does sign for us, I'm sure there will be a few saying it's because no decent club wanted him.

Sheff United have consistently finished in or around the play offs since joining this league, yes they will be in the running again next season

Edit: just read the OP (as opposed to reading the thread title and making an assumption), no I don't think they will sack clough.

I think they will

Even if they sack Clough....why would they rush to appoint TM??

Hes not GOD......If we had won 14 of 14 after his arrival, scoring 10 per game, I could see the reason for clubs clambering to sign him up, but he was unemployed for nearly 2 years & eventually landed the massive & world famous job of CCFC temporary manager....

...I bet Guardiola & Mourinho are shitting themselves....

Because Cov fans LOVE negativity.

 

[rupert_bear]

Because he is available and just proved he has what it takes to improve things, in these days of mobile phones, agents etc anything is possiblein a day or so, anything.

I wouldn't say Clough underachieved that much tbh. Would they really expect better than play offs and another great cup run?

 

[Covstu]

Work in Yorkshire and their fans expected promotion of its a failure however there is no talk of sacking him

In football yes I can see it. He is a steady Eddie and doesn't have the Mercury touch of his dad....better out there.

Interesting looking at their forum. One thread lists alternatives and Mowbray isn't mentioned. It reminds me of when we used to worry that Leeds would poach Strachan.

 

[LJC_CCFC]

Mowbray is by no means 'hot property', hence why he had to take a job at a club fighting a relegation battle in the third tier of English football. But yeah if it feeds your need for negativity, he's off to Sheffield United even though they currently have a manager.

Exactly, he's what we want. He's a good manager but is not in high demand from other clubs.
