David Kelly 1117 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I think Souness is probably a better manager but he did terribly with us and is a complete twat. Roeder is just clueless and totally out of his depth. If nothing else at least Roeder left in a more dignified (and less expensive) manner.

Jusoda Kid 1 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Roeder was just someone that was given the job, Souness touted for it then fucked us over big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_NUFC 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Souness. Dragged us into the shit, and was a confrontational, aggressive bully and the club suffered, just as Blackburn suffered before us. Roeder at least tried. He couldn't do it mind, but he cared. I have nothing against him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 (edited) Souness comfortably, though this full season under Roeder is as bad as anything i've watched for a hell of a long time. Edited May 15, 2007 by Papa Lazaru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Don't hate either of them at all. If I had to choose which would be manager now I'd choose Souness. I wouldn't want Roeder anywhere near this team again. Souness is a much better manager, but for some reason it just didn't work. It's Fred I hate.

I really don't think Souness is a good manager - he is a dinosaur, a bully and he admitted himself he wasn't even interested in the modern aspects of management. The fact that he was a complete failure wasn't accidental - he was bound to fail from day one. I don't think he'll get another job at a Premier League club again, which sums him and his outdated methods up perfectly. Roeder probably knows more about modern management than Souness, at least in theory. His problem is that he has no charisma and authority whatsoever.

I think more clubs coming up through the Championship would take a shot with Souness rather than Roeder. I think he's done in the game now at managerial level tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 I would imagine only Leazes and Gemmill hate Roeder more tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toonraider 0 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 (edited) I just felt uninspired and disapointed when Roeder was appointed, you just knew he wasnt man enough for the job, but a very decent person I rekon. But when Souness was given the job i was really pissed off, cant stand the man. Edited May 16, 2007 by Toonraider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jill 0 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Souness.. he's an evil bastard. Roeder's just useless, in the way that you wouldn't really *hate* the spaz kid at school, they just weren't very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig 6301 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Don't 'hate' either of them - can't say I 'hate' anyone in this world tbh. I think Souness did more damage, Roeder's crime was that he was not strong enough to get us out of the mess we were already in. Both are former managers though so I'm indifferent to them. It's the same with the people who still show vitriol towards Gullit. It's 8 years since he resigned, get over it! It's as bad as the Mackems with their "2-1, 2-1 FTM!!!!"
