Jewell & Derby

[Si Nick]

Ok they are in the Prem now, but are they really a much better bet than us?

Would have thought Jewell would have wanted to go for a Prem club with the finances to stay up

So does this mean that Jewell just didn't fancy working for Milan.

I'm happy with Ollie anyway, but it makes you wonder

Yes.... and even more so after he spends loads of cash.

 

[Billyjof]

They will get relegated and he will walk

 

[City Fan]

It is a strange one - we have more of a chance of being in the Premiership next season than Derby do. Even Norwich or QPR do as well!

 

[Redditch Fox]

More likely:

Derby relegated

Derby are about the most cash rich club in next year's championship

Jewell achieves promotion and gets fresh crack at the premiership

 

[Billyjof]

I prefered my scenario

 

[fitz]

seems odd to quickly distance yourself from any upcoming job in the league and then put yourself forward at derby......

 

[Redditch Fox]

Cause you do.

But I think Jewell is on a potential winner.

No one thinks that Derby can avoid relegation - but Jewell probably thinks he can muster enough points to earn credit. If they don't he can blame the last bloke. Either way he is ok.

In contrast, if he had joined us - which he was never going to consider - he would have been faced with the unrealistic expectation of challenging to get to the play offs next year; sorting out too big a squad littered with poor players for next season- never mind Milan.

He's mates with Pearson.

Hopefully Megson and Jewell will be managing Championship sides next year and will be shattered at us being in the Premiership. :icon_razz

i wouldn't turn down better opportunities to work for a mate, in fact i would not consider working for a mate in the sort of environment that he will be in

I think we have a better manager than Derby have.

Why is it unrealistic to be aiming for the play-offs next season?

It is a stated aim to achieve promotion in three season which was never going to happen in this one but anything less than a top six spot next season is unthinkable.

He has to ensure he retains his "most contraversial" title. Give him a break.
