I've heard it all now. Roberto Mancini to Nigel Clough. Inter Milan via Burton Albion. Not being big headed but the days we appoint managers from the Championship are long over. I'm sure Balotelli and Yaya would just love working with Nigel Clough. We have a squad full of egotistic galacticos, and those galacticos will only play under a big-named manager. Why do you think Balotelli came here in the first place? Yes, BM isn't doing anything amazing right now, and I too am disheartened right now to say the least, but throwing names like Nigel Clough into the mix?!!!
Its possible I just fell for an almighty Clarkie, of course!
Mate thats ignorance at its best.
Like iv said before Mancini wont get the sack and i deffinately dont want him too either.
But just to dismiss Clough out of hand like that is a bit cockey and arrogant pal. Hes done a great job at Burton albion and has done a shit hot job at Derby with no money.
Every manager has to start somewhere and who is to say that he wont be the next best manager in the world? We dont know yet how he will turn out but just because he isnt in a top job at the moment doesnt mean hes a shit manager.
I mean some people on here still wanna wank sven off every hour of the day and he was at Notts County and now at Leicester?
