I reckon Keith is similar to Harry Rednapp (not as good) when his teams play well they play very well. But if things don't go our way he has no plan B. can't remember many come backs under Keith even when just a goal down. Old man reckons no difference with him and Parkin or any other lower league managers. Thinks he/they are scared to bring in experience players as they know more than him/them and if they do they don't know to do with said player. Rant this morning was about Tonge who is playing well and scoring at Leeds. I'm hoping we stick with Keith until end of the season and get all players fit second half of season. Silva, mido and Steele all missed so far and I feel have a big part to play. Old man hopes take over happens tomorrow. Keith out and McCarthy in before Keith takes us down.
Tonge wasnt fit. If he wanted experinced players why would he bring in Harewood who played in prem and mido whos played in champ league against some of best players in world. Vazte edwards.
i agree with your views on keith in respect to performances, birmingham away showed what we are capable of although peterbro at home also showed our failings and unfortunately in keiths time there have been way more peterbro performances than birmingham ones. If new owners decide keith is the man and give him money to spend i certainly wouldnt be dissapointed but if the realistic alternative was hill out, mcarthy in i would take it tomorrow and for all the backing keith gets on here i have a feeling that the majority of reds fans including a large portion of people who have stopped going would take the 2nd scenario in a heartbeat
That's exactly the point... He doesn't know how to get the best out of them. Experienced manager would! Old man reckons likes of Edwards, Tonge and Harewood would all perform for experience manager likes of McCarthy / warnock... Where as Keith is clueless. Vaz te was perfect for Keith. Great potential but relatively inexperienced... Almost lost his way you could say. Of that Keith is king I.e. developing youth ans lower league players fufilling their potential. E.g. Grant Holt, Rickie Lambert, Vaz te etc But as for those with top flight experience he has failed to deliver
Can I just say that Ricky Lambert and Grant Holt never played under Hill at Rochdale and that Steve Parkin was the man who acquired them and should receive any accolades for developing them whilst at Rochdale. Despite how much folk want to make Keef into supermanager and Parkin as the devil it just aint so.
