Derby part company with Davies

Derby County have today parted company with Billy Davies, their manager, by mutual consent after a miserable three months in the Premier League.

Davies led the Midlands side to the top flight courtesy of a 1-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion in last May's Championship play-offs, but they have struggled to come to terms with the step up in class, winning just one of their opening 14 games and propping up the table.

Do you think it was a sensible decision by Adam Pearson, the chairman, to remove Davies and who do you think should be the new manager at Pride Park?

And what about the former Preston North End boss himself, do you think he will be out of a job for long, or will he emerge with his reputation intact from his time at Derby?

As always, we would welcome your views.

Guys,
Any inside news from Spain whether Juande Ramos will actually go back to Sevilla and sign a player in January. I like the look of Keite.
What do you think?
