Yeah think he will be ok... Was tempted to do an article on the change of direction but with so much negativity its difficult to do. Its an interesting appointment - nothing more. Very much unknown. But you cant please all fans. Its ambitious and adventurous and for me I quite like the approach. It would have been too easy to re-appoint Big Eck - dont get me wrong he would have been ok short term until the end of the season. Or we could have went McInnes which for me was never a good idea. As I said if he turns out to be poor I will hold my hands up....but Im happy with this appointment.

Liverpool comeback to win, they are now 5 clear of Arsenal which is a big gap and 6 ahead of Man Utd. Ok those teams both have 2 games in hand but Arsenal away to Southampton is one which isnt a gimmie and Man Utds game in hand is Man City. Plus Arsenal have to go to Spurs then play Utd at home. It could be Arsenal and Man Utd missing out on top 4. That hasnt happened in the Premier League era.

Great coach, knows the game inside out but a terrible manager. He is a good number 2. Yet the Derby chairman is a bit nuts. But Pedro should have first say on if he wants a DoF.

A round of applause for Murty and Hill, both very humble and down to earth. I hope Murty gets a chance as a Number 1 somewhere in a few years.

Brenda looks sick. Well done Murty - defo deserves to stay on, he has actually done well and won a lot of respect. I did say Big Clint has to have the game of his life and I think he did. I hope he gets another year as he is clearly our best CH.

No he was just looking for a scrap. Steve McLaren just left Derby again, he is more of a DoF.

8 points is a big gap, I didnt realise it was that much. But we can certainly beat them twice plus Celtic will beat them so its dooable.

The title of this thread is embarrassing...We should never welcome a manager like this...Its what will send anyone packing. I really despair some peoples thoughts sometime....if he fails I will be the first person to admit it but to shoot him down before he is even in the seat - wah nuts.

Forget what anyone has to say...give the man his chance...dont hound him out or we will be begging Walter back before you know it. We dont have any Barry Fergusons in the squad now so he should be able to control the squad. Im happy with this appointment....welcome aboard Pedro.... I mean you cant make this up - Rangers fans complain about McLeish then we have a new idea and he is number 60 in the list...FFS.

Amen to that my friend.

Thats an OK idea if we had Laudrup and Hateley but id rather see us play higher up the park. Big Clint Hill needs to have the game of his life and we need someone to perform in the middle of the park.

I think we will stick to Pedro Like I said - he has a Simeone swagger about him and lets give the guy a chance.

Harsh mate...I only comment on conspiracies once there is something to debate....I dont sit in a room and make up stuff like 9/11.

Get over yourselves and have a positive look for once. Judge by time and results and not by how he got the gig.

Yup long day here also...Ive got a 8:30pm kick off. I told the neighbour to wake me up at 8pm in case Ive passed out as Im on the bevvy already

How do you pronounce his surname by the way??

3 homes. I didnt back that. Well done Hull, good win to keep the relegation fight interesting. Didnt think Everton would cuff WBA so easily.

And much older than me :cheers:

A bit of doom and gloom in this thread. Welcome aboard Pedro. Im quite happy with this appointment, lets see what he can do. He has a bit of Simeone swagger about him. I hope he is the non nonsense type.

I hope so because bar Clint Hill our centre half's are basically shite. Wilson hasnt looked a shadow of himself in first spell, Kiernan is St Johnstone level and Senderos must be on crack or something.

Would be good to see the team just stuck in and fight. I will never back against a Gers side against Celtic. Foderingham Tavernier Wilson Hill Wallace Waghorn Toral Hyndman McKay Miller Dodoo

I obviously am for real if those stats are true.....Im not bigging up anything, just showing the stats...dont shoot the messenger

They could well be but Durham still contradicted himself. Ive no time for either of them. Darren Gough is OK though.

I saw this and thought it was quite interesting especially comparing WS and Big Ecks records which are nearly the same yet WS is a hero and McLeish defined as poor by some.
