Warmed to a manager so quickly like I have Mowbray.
Sat hanging on his every word, couldn’t listen to him all night. Not in the last 20 years have I felt so optimistic!
Love the bassa
The blokes seems the opposite of the previous manager. I'm confident now. This is the beginning of a new era.

That the ridiculous football management carousel plonked Tony at our doorstep at this time is possibly the greatest slice of good fortune our club has had in decades.

And before Fate or whatever gets any ideas, we pre-paid in advance. For decades.
I do think it also helps that Rooney's era was so short and not very good when all said and done.
It was a change back into the right direction and is fixing a lot of what went wrong. Were more appreciative that we made a proactive change with someone who has great experience and is generally a lovely bloke.

Yes, very much so. I don't think it would have been so enthusiastically received if he'd been a direct successor for Eustace, but as an antidote to the last few months, it's an absolute dream, as well as being an intelligent appointment. I really like our Tone.
I think that for all that owners fans and like to think that a good managerial appointment revolves around their tactical acumen, their past record and all that...probably the most under rated aspect is whether a manager is a good fit for that particular club.
If they arent, then they are pretty much doomed from the start.

I also think that if they’re perceived as a decent bloke then there’s goodwill from the start, and goodwill buys some time and understanding.

Absolutely spot on!
Love him to bits, but also, if a club is going to chuck a lot of money and resources at promotion, I genuinely think he will know what to do with it and has very good chance of getting it right.
Also, from a cynical media point of view, he a lot more 'box office' in his interviews than Rooney would ever be. He'll be the next Netflix sensation, and I think he'll love that too. Though I really do not want us near Netflix!
I warmed pretty quickly to Gary Rowett. A 2-1 win v Watford in his first game and a nice jumper was enough.
Though after he horrors of Lee Clark's last few months I was easy pickings for anyone withgood knitwareeven a vaguely sensible game plan.
