Birmingham City Thread - 2023/24

[Eric Hitchmough]

Garry Cook will be getting pelters from the Brum fans for this shambles

It beggars belief that any club would hire him as their manager. Something fishy going on there.

I also noted the BBC are calling it Michael Carrick's Middlesborough.

Bizarre all round, they sacked a manager who was just outside the play offs to appoint him, been a total disaster since.

Looks like Wayne Rooney’s Birmingham are going to be getting a name change very soon!

Is he there ? I wasn't aware of that, glad we got rid then.

Yeah he’s their CEO mate

It could only happen in football couldn't it ?
Replacing a man doing a really good job with somebody who has a pretty mediocre record in management. The Birmingham owners deserve everything they get for this. Serves them right.

It must be when they think that the player (that was) is too good for the club - Michael Carrick's Middlesbrough, Wayne Rooney's Derby, Frank Lampard's Derby. I can't wait for Clayton Blackmore's United.

Leeds fans giving it him big time.

Good .
The horrible fat scouse tramp

 

[jimharri]

Good, he should keep to what he does best.

 

[Gazza]

I think Garry Cook misunderstood the Rooney rule when appointing the manager.

It'll get even worse when he announces that he's enrolling Wazza into the Aston Villa Hall of Fame :-)

 

[yeseye]

He’ll hopefully end up at Old Toilet!
SOGS.

Brian Horton to Alan Ball-esque.

Once the fans want you out that much as they demonstrated at the game, the club has little option.

I half expected them to double down on him or at least give him longer considering the huge deal the club made about bringing him in despite him doing nothing as a manager but the fans rightly spoke up.

Both the club and Rooney come out of this looking like idiots

 

[Bollo]

Give it to Giggsy?

 

[Aguerooooooo93:20]

So no longer known as wayne rooneys Birmingham City.

Garry Cook looks a bit of a clown in this appointment as he's the chief exec.
Appointing a manager who has approx 27% win record in the USA and the football league.

If your reading Jimbo Radcliffe.wayne's your man/grannyshagger :-)

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

I just want to say that Rooney is a granny shagging ****.
