What Next For Weir?

[Kev Gee]

Now hes had a serious wake up call.

Do you think he will:-

 

[alcoblade]

Something more his level...?

 

[Bladesman]

I reckon he will go back coaching as he is not ready for management yet. If Chris Morgan doesn't think he is ready himself for management on a permanent basis then neither is Weir.

 

[sheffielder]

He will get another job in management as long as he convince people he knows why it all went wrong here. I think he will do well at some point if he understands what went wrong.

 

[JohnDenver]

He could use a couple of seasons as an assistant. Go from there.

 

[Wards]

Scotland beckons.

 

[brownie4583]

I reckon he will end up somewhere in Scotland as manager of Albion Rovers,Stenhousemuir,East Fife etc playing his trusted 4-5-1 'passing' formation,losing every week and not willing to be flexible!

 

[oaklandrdblade]

To be honest I don't care

 

[Bladesway]

I hope he goes on and learns from this. He is a decent bloke who has had the shock of his bloody life. If he decides to call it a day then so be it, but I struggle to level with some of the shit dished out by the keyboard cage fighters on here.

 

[dublin 10 blade]

The guy signed a 3 year contract a couple a months ago , he's looking at close to 200 k in compo , and were worried at what he'll be up to , if it was me I'd be in Japan , no swizzler not to see you mate, just something about those little lady's floats my boat , the way I'd go at it would be on a drip in the Ozzie within 6 weeks with that kind a money in my back pocket .

 

[SBSP]

Doesn't really matter as he has the next 2 years salary sorted courtesy of us.

 

[WhiteHawk]

I do hope his awful spell with us doesn't mean he'll never get another job in management. I hope he does get a job somewhere and he's successful. He seems a really nice, genuine bloke and I wish it had worked out for him at The Lane. I'm pretty gutted it didn't work out for him here but shit happens and we had no choice but to get rid.

I think he'll probably end up managing someone like Elgin City.

With Pinchy as coach.

 

[vorpal blade]

Well its all about how influential the manager actually is. Its just that I think sometimes a club just gets itself in a tail-spin and there doesn't seem to be anything anyone can do very much.
Its like the well trod path down from premiership slipping through the championship barely touching the sides and ending up where we are.
Saints, Cov, Leeds (I think), Wolves , Man. City etc.

Its like a batting collapse, is it it psychological or is it just all about the money honey?

In other words I think its quite likely Weir will do well elsewhere and I hope he does. At least he had the courage of his convictions.

 

[Sothall_Blade]

I hope he'll always be the answer to the question "Who was Sheffield United's Worst Ever Manager?"

Other than that, I wish him well. He should start at the bottom and work his way up like Ferguson, Warnock, Bassett, B.Clough, N.Clough etc

 

[Hartley Hare]

On the beach with the £750,00o we gave him, drinking a cocktail, laughing all the way to the bank. With the £5m he already had,

 

[JJ Sefton]

Er...he did.

 

[KenMcnaughtsNuts]

You forgot to add the "couldn't give a shit" option.

 

[cahill]

Who's David Weir ?

 

[brownie4583]

With Pinchy as coach.

With Pinchy as Director of proper football

The pressers'd be fum

Walker" So, Pinchy, that's another couple of points dropped. Do you think a more direct style of play would help?"

DOF " Does the man at Capital exhort Arsene to get Alan Lee in? No. Has the man at Taffy FM suggested to Laudrup that Swansea can only prosper with a few 6 footers with efficient heart/lung capacities in the middle? Fool. Yet here, and only here, at Radio Jurassic do the idiot savants, pining for the days of endless cliche ridden banality strewn monologues with the likes of Semi-Pro and Quickfix etc etc......"


On topic, back in coaching and up against us in a POF a few years down the track. No need to expand...

 

[Sothall_Blade]

Er...he did.

Non-league or lower Scottish like the others.
Not at a club with 16,000+ fans

 

[bladesadviser]

I think a lot will depend on how successful Nigel Clough is with the same bunch of players. If we start winning and to the outside footballing world we start to look successful then chairmen will look and think that Weir is probably not going to make it as a football manager. If we win one in the next 12 Weir can probably use the "its the players/club/expectations etc" and will be given another chance

 

[shorehamview]

With Pinchy as coach.

With Pinchy as Director of proper football

Neither of you know how to spell "fluffer" then......

 

[DronnieBlade]

He will have NO problem finding gainful employment in management.

Wonder if same could be said from some of our previous managers !! One in particular I seriously doubt

 

[Darren]

I can't see it.

Interview for the next managerial job DW applies for:

Interviewer so Mr Weir, what's your managerial experience.

DW: well I managed the club with the second highest budget in the third tier, who had nearly got promotion in the last two sesons, I lost 7 out of my 10 games with them, left them bottom of the table and was sacked 2 months into the season.

Interviewer: thanks Mr Weir, We will let you know...

I doubt we will have long to find out which one of us is right Darren. !

But I agree that its unlikely to be at anywhere higher than Div 3 at this stage.

You missed out a bit -

DW: But at least one member of the Sheffield United crowd had a hard-on for my brand of tippy-tappy Crabball, sideways until we hit the bottom, the likes of which you won't have seen unless you've worked in the elephant enclosure at Chester Zoo or looked after the donkeys on Skeggy beach.

Interviewer: Eh?

DW: The hard-on. Not the brand of sideways non-scoring, always losing football. Crabball. Guaranteed to get at least one stiff stiffer.

Interviewer; Ah. Yes. We'll let you know David. Meanwhile good luck coaching the Krusty Krab All-Stars.

DW: Hoots mon, the noo.

 

[JJ Sefton]

Does he list Pinchy above or below David Moyes as a reference?

And.............breathe.
