Lampard and Morris

Although there are no indications from the club yet, every one appears to think it's footballs current worst kept secret that Frank will be our next manager.

Everyone also seems to assume that should he come Jody Morris will come with him as a package. However is that neccessarily true?

Derby will be needing a new manager themselves and have, according to some sources, missed out on Lee Bowyer. What if they offered the position to Jody, its's not beyond the realms of possibility that he may well fancy being the main man himself.

It would make sense for Derby as it would give them some kind of continuity and after all, having worked with Frank last season plus the fantastic job he did with our academy over a number of years, he actually probably has more coaching experience than Lamps.

Just a thought that's occurred to me!

I'd be absolutely gutted if Jody wasn't to come back here with Frank. For me a major part of the appeal of getting Frank is that Jody is coming with him and I honestly can't think of anyone better suited to help bring through this fantastic generation of kids we have than Jody Morris.

Would be an incredibly bold move by Derby to appoint Morris. Definitely possible though, you get some proper left field appointments in that division.

The top 6 last year had fascinating diversity with the managers. Everything from the grass rooted non league guy to the man Guardiola described as the best manager in the world

Would it be that bold a move though Devil? They took a punt on Frank who had never had a managerial role of any sort and appointed him more on reputation (And Uncle Arry's word if you listen to everything he says) of his name than anything.

Jody has been producing, admittedly at Academy level, great results with young players and if anything has greater managerial experience than Frank.

I suggest we go double or nothing on that bet Brummie. I'm saying we're getting Frank+Jody together. If we don't then I owe you two Stellas

Lampard had a name though, like Gerrard going to Rangers, Morris would be very left field.

I could see it happening now you mentioned it. Huddersfield & Norwich hired Dortmund's academy coaches and they got promoted with them, combine that with Lampard being largely popular and successful there and you can imagine Derby finding it appealing.
