Rowe as we saw takes risks, he had a budget and spent it on a narrow group of players at City and when injuries or suspensions came was starting to look short just before he left for Cheatersfield. As said at this level not selecting a substitute keeper is an amature cock up and it bit him in the arse!
He took a gamble again and lost, he is clearly a good coach,but naive at best and certainly a chancer.
Rowe will have high expectations next season and that's not an easy league ever to get out of even when money is thrown at a team,FGR for example....

Typical JR interview...Next year will be a lot more of a level playing field as I guess he won't be able to furlough players he doesn't want,the team he inherited were one of the highest scoring teams and he has been heavily backed in the transfer market,so there's still questions to be asked of him as a coach, ironically he signed about 3 or 4 keepers and put some on furlough so he must be gutted/annoyed that that was there downfall.

I think this highlights the difference between being a coach and being a manager. It’s all very well running ‘good sessions’ (because it’s not enough for players to train hard just because they’re being paid to play football, they have to be pandered to) but his lack of managerial experience has been exposed yesterday.
