McClaren getting sacked is always less of a surprise than McClaren getting appointed. #DCFC

Could Gary Rowett be next in line for the job?
Rowett will 100% be in charge of the game on Saturday against Forest. #dcfc

I'll be shocked if Rowett doesn't get the #DCFC or #NCFC job, although I think it'll be Derby. Good luck.

Surely Derby, Forest or Norwich will try for Rowett? #bcfc #dcfc #nffc #ncfc
