Clough job not under threat - Rams chief
Derby chief executive Tom Glick insists Nigel Clough`s position as manager of the Championship club is safe.
A recent run of poor results, including a heavy league defeat to rivals Nottingham Forest and an FA Cup exit at non-league Crawley, has sparked speculation about Clough`s future.
Clough refused to face the media following his side`s surprise cup loss in West Sussex, fuelling the rumours.
But Glick told the Derby Telegraph: "We cannot control what other people do or how they speculate on social networks, blogs and chatrooms. We have been consistent all along - we have the right manager at this football club and we are moving forward.
"We know how much Nigel Clough does for this club, how in touch he is with the supporters, the city and the community.
"We talk about the romance of the FA Cup and giantkillings but being on the receiving end is something everybody at the club took very hard. It was a terrible night for the club. I know the supporters are upset, disappointed and embarrassed and everybody here at Pride Park and at Moor Farm is feeling the same."
