Derby County have sacked manager Nigel Clough following Saturday's 1-0 defeat to rivals Nottingham Forest.
Clough, 47, has been in charge of the Rams since January 2009 but defeat to Forest left the club in 11th place in the Championship. "After much consideration, the board feel it is time to move Derby County forward to the next level," said a club statement. "The club would also like to take this opportunity to wish Nigel Clough well." The loss at the City Ground was the third in the space of eight days for Derby, who followed in his late father Brian's footsteps when he took the job. |

Stupid decision IMO and I think there is more to this |

they dont exactly spend much on transfers, what are the owners wanting ?

By:
it's a ridiculous decision, he's been building a team out of academy kids, teaching them their trade, thought the club were all behind his project
idiotic sacking |

Billy Davies also fuming in the post match press conference. I think there must of been a major incident behind the scenes.

I wouldn't wish Tony Pulis on my worst enemy.
Well actually I would, please please please Derby, appoint Tony Pulis. Make my day, my season and my lifetime - I'm smiling like a Cheshire Cat at the thought of it, can't think what I'll be like when the news is announced next week. I've heard Mama Sidebe will be his first signing. |

I've just brought tickets to the Leeds game on Saturday, I hope they don't get Pulis!

I've just seen a picture of Pulis ,and Derby's chairman laughing and joking in the stands, not sure when the pic was taken, maybe today?

The consortium that bought Derby wanted to appoint a director of football for a while but Clough was reported to be against the idea.
If they've decided to go with their original restructuring then it's understandable why they sacked Clough. |

I've heard Mama Sidebe will be his first signing. Bit embarrassing to be slating Tony Pulis in this manner, when he took the Potters back to the Premier League after 23 years in the wilderness, to a FA Cup Final, To European football for the first time in an eternity, and made Stoke an established Premier League outfit, who were never in serious danger of relegation during his stewardship, and into a team that proved to be a constant thorn in the side of those more 'precious' teams who felt they just had to turn up and expect less fashionable teams to roll over. Admittedly, Stoke played some awful football during that stewardship, but it was effective, and has left us in a good position to be taken forward by a manager with more progressive ideas. For thsose reasons, I will never have a bad word for TP and wish him all success in whatever he does going forward. |

Loving it so much just thought I'd refresh myself with some "Pulis stats".
During Tony's first spell at Stoke back in season 2004 / 2005 we had a run of 17 games with 15 1-0 results and a couple of goalless draws chucked in for good measure, that's a total of 15 goals in 17 games at an average of 0.88 goals per games. Mark my words you'll be crying out for Cloughie in a month or so! |

Maybe, if Tony is pals with the board, maybe he is going to be the director of football

Gut instinct is I'd love to say 'no' but I'd prefer to give it more than 5 or 6 matches to see whether we are going to be able to remain competitive given the change in our style of play. It's certainly a massive eye-opener, ad I can now look forward to watching us play.
Still, TP has served the club brilliantly, and I am sure he could still do that for other clubs. Disturbed at the 'short-termism' that is becoming more prevalent in football. |
