Yes, as the title suggests, the two choices are unlikely, but I'm drunk, p1ssed off and tired. Crap again tonight. Although we huffed and puffed, we did bugger all. Should have equalised, terrible miss, but anyway......
Sam Allardyce...... Yes, why the fack would the ex-England manager come to Rotherham? Why indeed? Almost no chance, yes. BUT, who in the Premier League is going to take him now? He's more likely to go to someone like Derby. Or maybe he will never manage again, just retire on his millions. Whatever. But if Tony Stewart wants to make good on his promise to try to get to the Premier League, he should at least make the phonecall tomorrow. Allardyce, (YES it's spelt Allardyce, and I know that will cause huge problems for people on this board who can't even spell Steve EVANS or NEIL Warnock correctly) is unlikely to want to come to us. But his stock is low, he would sort us out, absolutely no doubt about it. Tony Stewart should offer to make him the highest paid manager in our history and give him total control over team, tactics, transfers, scouting, THE LOT. Big Sam would sort us out.......
Okay, I know, highly unlikely. But if you don't ask, you don't get, and like I say, he isn't going to have a stream of clubs lining up now.....
So more realistically, Nigel Pearson. A fantastic manager. But it hasn't worked out for him at Derby. It happen sometimes. Most managers have had a poor spell at one club, and there can always be mitigating circumstances. I'm quite sure he would get a lot more out of our players than Alan Stubbs has. And before we would have had no chance for him. Now though, he has taken a top Championship side to third bottom before he got the boot. So we might just, JUST have a chance.
If both of those fail - and Tony Stewart should work BLOODY hard to make sure they don't - it's time to go back to Steve Evans. The haters can fack off, we never should have got rid in the first place. We need a manager who gets the best out of our players and has them running through brick walls.
Please, Mr Stewart, no more stupid appointments........
