Can we just take a minute to give some credit to Rhys Carr.

He stepped up to take over in very difficult circumstances, and has done a very good job (imho)

He's done himself no harm at all. And shown that he has a good future in management / coaching at this level.

I was saying this to some of my friends earlier. Comes across really well in interviews and isn't scared to make changes when things aren't going our way

He's walked into a very difficult situation and picked up some points in games no one really expected much from. We may not of won but I genuinely enjoyed the game today and I hope he's kept around there's definitely something about him.

I hope FL keeps him on, he seems to have the respect of the players, and has shown some tactical awareness.

Have we been too quick to look elsewhere?
I've no idea, but he's certainly done himself no harm.

Credit where it's due, he's showed that he can make us competitive, and entertaining, well done, and thanks for a very good job.

Some bloke from Arsenal, Steve Round, has popped up for DoF. Anyone have any info on him?

Has a decent CV of assistant management at a high level including Newcastle, Arsenal, Man Utd and even the national team.
Was also DoF at Villa from 2016-2018.

Agreed. Hope the people telling him to resign and calling him a snake on Twitter a couple weeks ago feel good about themselves. Twats.

Has been Moyes’ right hand man at Everton and Man U and Arteta’s at Arsenal until 2023, apparently he fell out with Arteta over his decision to replace Ramsdale with Raya. A fantastic coach by all accounts, would probably be a great shout for a DoF.

Side note: I’ve also had him as a coach on Football Manager many moons ago. Top bloke to work with…

Which ITK was calling him a yes man on here?

Haha! What a prick. Wednesday c**t

WTF bollock brain. Fucking grow up.

WTF bollock brain. Fucking grow up.

Weird isn't it?
Anyone criticises Wednesday you defend them.
Anyone says anything about Chelsea you contradict them because your sons a season ticket holder.

But King tries to tell is about things that went on before he knew we existed, and some of us lived through, and you fight hid corner. Fucking weird behaviour.

And you come out with this kind of bullshit.
Re Wednesday I live in the City and know a good element of their support. There are scum bags amongst them but you know fuck all about them.
Re Chelsea beyond doubt you know fuck all about them and the comment "anyone says anything about Chelsea you contradict them because your sons a season ticket holder" is just lazy insult throwing due to your comprehensive ignorance .
Re King I lived through the era you mention and most probably an era before so I'm voicing my opinion as to your agenda.
Weird behaviour not expecting to hear a different opinion to yourself.

It’s even more embarrassing as a Cov fan he’s allowed his son to support Chelsea ffs

Listen to yourself. I Don't give a fuck about Wednesday, I don't give a fuck about Chelsea, but I won't be lectured to about City by some c**t who arrived 10 minutes ago and tries to tell us how it is.

Luckily for him he's got pricks like you who buy into his bulshit but it's not for me.

Why mention them in the first place then you moron?
Balanced discussion obviously isn't your forte . I won't be lectured to about City by some amoeba simpleton who thinks he's Lord of The Manor.
Unfortunately there are pricks like you whom the concept of debate has completely evaded due to your egotistical ignorance.

And the fact that you delve back through my posting history , deliberately misinterpret what I said is puerile in the extreme. Tosser.

You really are a prick. I mention them because you're always banging on about them. Look at your posts clown. And you contradict anyone who says anything about them so that's why I mention them, doest meanI give a fuck. Just hilights what a hypocrite you are.
But you think it's OK for King to lecture us about our history when he's been here 5 minutes you fucking simpleton.

Delve through you don't stop going on about it you boring c**t.

No I'm not always banging on about them . I've mentioned them agreed but in a very small minority of my posts. It obvious that your football knowledge is severely limited and no I don't contradict I state fact . Just highlights what a hypocritical liar you are.
It takes an utter bellend to make stuff up to endorse the nonsense they are spouting and congratulations you are a founder member of that club.

Bullshit . You have to be a sad prick like yourself to dig in that detail ( the Sheff Wed stuff was ages ago you utter tool)

You don't need to dig, theres a search function, takes seconds you daft c**t

That's a great idea. Let's have a country where we stifle the right for free thinking and choice ffs.

Free thinking and choice are all very good. As long as it’s extended to all sides.

As for supporting Chelsea I’ve always thought it was a bit like being a fan of WWE. It’s fine for kids but embarrassing for a grown up.

Anyone who doesn’t support Coventry is an embarrassment

That's the point though. He may be grown up now but started supporting them when he was 7 because his grandma who lives in London supported them.We live in Sheffield so Coventry was a much less attractive option at the time.
