Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach

[davulsukur]

The Daily record had him at 28/1 for the next Rangers manager. Behind names like Bielsa, potter, Hasenhuttl, marsch, Muscat.

Not sure if they'll go for JDT but you never know. 

No way in hell he'd turn them down if approached.

I’m sure his agent will be calling them.

Be surprised if he'd be interested in Rangers.

If he holds out for another few months, a couple of Prem jobs will become available.

Do you really think so ??

I think JDT’s agent will be looking at realistic alternatives.

I don’t think JDT will be anywhere near the top of Rangers wish list, and I certainly can’t see a Premier League club coming in for him.

His brand is clearly now being damaged, which is why I can see him bailing out with a few more defeats.

Mental no one EVER kicked off at Mowbray for doing shite constantly, yet JDT getting pelters for a much shitter team.

If you genuinely think that on here no one ever kicked off at Mowbray then you are deluded.

Its irrelevant now anyway. Tomasson is here and we have conceded the most in the league down to his tactics.

I dread to think who they'll appoint next.

Whoever it is they won't back them so relegation is coming sooner or later anyway.

Warnock , wouldn't be a bad shout !

Highly unlikely they would appoint the right person for the job...

we`ll be able to tell in the next few weeks if he`s completely lost the plot,im`e yet to decipher this bizarre method of everyone piling forwards and leaving the middle of the park vacant

maybe he`s trying to get sacked

has he lost interest

will he adjust and get us more balanced

Coventry away should be fun

He'd never come here after what they did to him pre-Coyle.

Would do some of them good to get an old school bollocking though.

[tomphil]

I really wouldn't want Warnock there was a time yes but not now, if things get worse though he might be the only man for the job considering what he did at Hudds.

Last year we struggled to score goals even with Dack and Brereton hence our minus goal difference. We are weaker in that sense so putting more bodies forward and pressing is the tactics to address the lack of goals. We don't score, we don't win.

Key is getting the first goal and stop giving away the cheap early goals.

Yeah, can't see JDT to Soton.

When he does leave, he'll go to a bigger club than Soton, for sure.

I don't think JDT will be upgrading on Rovers on our current run of form. He needs to start getting results.

What is strange given the above is the way we play at the moment with throwing everyone forward at the slightest opportunity is really raising the chances we concede early.

We should be prioritising defence and choosing our moments to commit.

I think if anything he will leave of his own accord. He seems truly deflated - I spoke to him on Wednesday and he was chirpy as anything totally the opposite today.

If he leaves at the moment he will in one fell swoop lose millions in compensation and have seriously damaged his reputation weakening his hand to find a new role better or equivalent to here. There's a lot of managers out there and not that many jobs. 

He isn't going anywhere imo.

Few things are more pointless than next manager betting markets. There's so little liquidity in them and such close monitoring from bookmakers that any small bets shift the market considerably.

In fairness, I think most posters (rightly) gave Mowbray stick for 2 years from the first death spiral just before Covid.

Eh? Mowbray was getting absolute pelters for most of his last year or 2 on here and on social media. He got far more criticism (including from me) than JDT is getting currently. 

[roverblue]

I would say JDT has had an easy ride so far from fans and pundits. The football last season started with dreadful performances with decent points return and ended with better football but with a poor return. This season has continued in that vein.

He is rightly coming into some criticism now, his reputation well exceeds his performance at rovers so far in my view.

[1864roverite]

For me all Rovers need is a finisher. Wr have created chance after chance that goes begging. A half decent forward would have bagged 15 goals this season such is the multitude of chances.

He'd snap their hands off if offered the job there.

He'd leave Rovers' for any club who could provide him with any sort of backing you'd expect.

That’s what I thought. He is so fed up, he wants to get sacked with a pay off.

I agree, with a decent striker results could have been so much different - which begs the question, why play this way without a decent striker - it's not going to work.

Same last season when we constantly tried to walk the ball out of defence when we didn't have defenders who were capable of doing it.

In both cases we are not playing to our strengths - the opposite in fact. 

[MarkBRFC]

If they didn't sack Mowbray after his ridiculous winless runs they won't sack JDT, far too much effort.
