OldManGravz 1,311 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Crazy if true, nobody is given time to build a team or style of play anymore Link to post Share on other sites
MBG42 312 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Foolish decision. At least that is another team out of the automatic promotion picture! Link to post Share on other sites

northern boro 446 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 @BBCSport Derby County sack Paul Clement. Darren Wassall will take charge until the end of the season. More to follow. Link to post Share on other sites
northern boro 446 Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 "chairman Mel Morris said the decision was not based on results but on Clement's failure to fulfil a brief outlined on his appointment. When Paul joined us last year we worked with him to develop a plan for the club which we asked him to embrace," Morris told the club website. It was clear in this plan, which was briefed to supporters, players, sponsors and all our stakeholders last summer that promotion this season was not the primary target. The priorities were building on the Derby way and style of football enjoyed in the past two seasons; adding depth and strength to our playing squad; and, developing and improving player and team performance. Sadly, on these measurements, we have not made enough progress and that is why we have decided to part company with Paul." http://www.skysports.com/football/news/11696/10160672/paul-clement-sacked-by-derby-county Link to post Share on other sites
