As I have said before he is holding us to ransom and waiting for the big payoff he needs to look into a mirror and see who the problem is and if he can't see It he's even more Of a twat than we all thought he was DC is simply reminding the owners that what was promised has not been provided but it's a shame the the harmony and trust between the owners and management has gone but we fans know that we and DC have been mislead my the owners. DC will fight on against the odd just to show 'em but one day even the most loyal say enough is enough. Till then DC has my support and the support of most of us on this forum.

Darrell is the man to take us forward. He has shown he's good enough. I'm hopeful things will work out for us.

Respect to DC for his honesty and also the way in which he outs our owners for having no ambition and basically confirming what I and others have been saying on here for weeks and weeks regarding our owners and lack of spending their own money and paying bills etc. F@ck knows what they were really expecting when they bought this club but we as fans have well and truly had our pants pulled down , we massively over achieved last season and now this season it seems that our lack of decent signings obviously down to not wanting to part with decent cash is now having an effect on us , I suspect that we will possibly escape relegation this season but we will almost certainly be relegated next season at no fault to DC whatsoever and this will be down to the dry bread fraudsters we have at the helm . Bollicks to the AlQs. Totally correct. Apart from Wael (who seems to have no authority) the owners have no ambition. They won’t put their hands in their pocket and money is definitely not being spent. It’s gonna take something very special for them to change their mind. And to not pay bills is just disgusting. DC has obviously had enough and that interview tells all. DC needs to be backed 100% by the fans. Fans, players and staff against the owners it seems now. Any frustration needs to be taken out on our owners. Unless they come out with a positive statement very soon, I’m sure there will be protests shortly. UWE was our spring board to the next chapter. But that needed money that our owners weren’t going to commit to spending. I’m a very optimistic person but this situation is an absolute shambles. I am the same Ilk as I have always remained optimistic that one day we would be dragged from our ragbag tag and head towards the heights that our support potential could be , so when we had the takeover i finally thought we’d arrived . They may have said “evolution not revolution “ and I did think fair enough but I also thought they might actually spend something. When the UWE fell through it felt as everyone felt like a massive kick in the c@nt and with everything else regarding off field antics I’m now of the impression that we will never ever reach our potential and will be tettering around the non-league trap door in the not so distant future. Call me cynical and to be honest I never gave it much thought until now but why did the Al-Qadi family spend out doing the Mem up with a lick of paint here and there and new gates etc if they ever had any real intention of entering a deal with UWE ? It makes no sense whatsoever, I mean it’s not as if it’s going to add value to something that could of potentially be demolished in a couple of years , it’s not a necessity like mending a busted toilet or something it doesn’t add up. I think the time for vociferous action is needed soon.

" protests shortly" you don't know our fans very well do you? As long as most can get away from the Mrs for a couple of hours on a Saturday that's all that matters. This club deserves what it gets.

They have realised that the club can not make a profit for themselves. We are going nowhere if they are not willing to spend money, that is a fact.

If we've only spent £130k since march 2014 then I'm lost to all of the transfer fees stated on here, unless of course it means we've spent £130k more than we've earned in transfer fees.... Who knows.... Its pretty clear to me he means his net spend taking into account the fee we got for taylor and anyone else during his time as manager.

In my opinion anyone who calls DC a twat is the biggest twat of all. He's dragged us from the conference on a shoestring with little help from Higgs and not much more from the current owners. He deserves total respect from anyone who gives a f**k about this football club.

Brilliant interview,loved it. He feels like most of us do imo. It now all hinges on if the players respond to battling to safety despite the money issues raised by the manager and the fans as well We have 2 home games now so we will find out soon enough.

I stayed at the same hotel in Blackburn as the team.
In a very short conversation I had with DC, he sounded very down.

Thing is, agents run football now. Make no mistake DC's agent has been putting the feelers out for interest. The board have probably been contacted by agents with interested clients. Peter Beadle at Hereford? There isn't much loyalty anymore from anyone....it's in the agents interest to keep their clients moving around. You shouldnt make things up really should you?

DC turned down a life changing job at Leeds because he was promised the necessary investment was coming. We have all been lied to and badly let down. I really hope this man gets the job he deserves. Unfortunately far too many still believe in this disgraceful charade at the top of our club.

Good on you DC! About time someome on the inside gave the fans some straight talk. Just a shame it had to come from the manager but let's be fair we will be waiting an eternity to hear from DS. Wael was a proper rent-a-quote when things were going good now the local media can't find hide nor hair of him and we see more of Halley's comet than we do of Hani. Not good enough.
DS needs to show the people who pay money into their 'investment' some respect and front up and tell us straight what their plans for the club are and be more transparent about why the UWE was such a bad deal. If there was any good news to share it would be such a massive win for them that I can only conclude that their failure to do so means that there is nothing positive to say. Hamer pretty much alluded to this behind the politician speak.
That line Hamer came out with, "DS don't speak to the media" bothers me no end- a proper slap in the face to supporters. They think they don't answer to the fans. Disgusting attitude and shows what they think of us.
Got to get behind DC and the players now and hope we can stay up- it will certainly be in spite of DS rather than because of them if we do.

I think dc is trying to get the players and fans to buy into the "siege mentality" as a way of getting things going again on the pitch. Dont get me wrong hes putting across the situation as he sees it with his typical heart on sleeve style which i admire but there is method in his madness imo. 2 home games now so lets see.

There have been too many pages on the BBC about stuff to do with Rovers that’s nothing to do with football. We’ve had DC on a few occasions and SH and Wael. Rather than wash our divided, dirty washing in public they should all be talking about it and sorting it out in private. Our opponents must be laughing! It’s almost as if we’re doing their managers team talk for them. Always support DC but he really should concentrate on getting our defenders to defend, our attackers to score and stop all this c***. From that article I hear that “we’ve always lived within our means” and it looks like we’re going to keep doing that. Well tbh thank goodness for that! Surely we don’t want to start spending beyond our means do we? That can only end one way and it’s not the Championship or League 1. I also take it that BB has rejected the clubs offer and DC is afraid he’ll be off. UTG! If the club's hierarchy actually spoke to the fans directly instead of through their puppet then there would be no need for DC to reveal the inner workings. Part of the reason why there is so much discontent is becaise the owners have gone to ground and I guess DC wants us to know not to get on the players backs and be realistic about where we should be in the league because most of us were labouring under the idea that we had a top budget. DC is entirely right to shift the pressure off him and the team onto the owners- it is now over to DS to see if they refute any of these claims. I recall that statement by Hearts that Swissgas posted, that is how it is done- shows our owners up for the rank amateur timewasters that they are.

Not me anymore, I think it is now abundantly clear that the new owners are full of sh** , I don't trust a single word that comes from them. It's a real shame.

I'm afraid to say that I have now come to exactly the same conclusion. My hopes and dreams with this lot at the helm were flushed down the toilet u bend when the UWE project died. I have no faith or trust in any of them any more..
