I think you will find the away fans would had to have paid seat prices , there is an unfair trading act dated 2009 ? whereby the club could be fined if they sold terrace tickets for seats , as it would be unfair on all the fans that pay seat prices for their seats. Anyway as it appears we will be getting new owners soon we won't have to worry about getting additional cash from away fans. Does the act apply to a steward just deciding himself to do some fans a favour??? Doubt it and I suppose I don't Care. All I really want is for Rovers to put a winning run together starting on Saturday and get us out of this mess, then for the new owners to come in and give DC money to spend Wisely and bring to quality forwards in ,in January . That would do me for Xmas.

That's bullshit rhetoric. It's possible to think that it's worth keeping hold of DC without thinking he's god. Would it be ok to you to characterise your argument as a DC hater. Would it be ok to say, now we've lost a game the DC haters are coming out of the woodwork? I actually don't hate anyone, but you cannot defend a manager who has put together a very poor squad AND has spent his limit on doing so Well you defended Paul Trollope to the death and he buggered up big time once Lawrence let go of his hand. Big wages paid to worthless players, a squad overloaded with midfielders to boot. The difference is?

Upson has been one of the better players recently, until he got injured. He's only 28 so think he will replace lines soon who is 32. Martin will go back now THD is nearing fitness. Rodman might still come good, still early days and he had personal problems. Yeah tbf Upson has looked alright and Rodman has had other issues to contend me, I just mean from a business perspective those two are *probably* on a decent enough wage that, by shipping them out, would allow us to get some more players in. I'm just speculating though, from the sense of both being expendable in squad size regards. I'd definitely let Martin and Jakubiak go back to their parent clubs though. Martin was only ever a short-term fix while THD recovers (and now he's playing minutes in the CTT and development squad, he should be back fully soon) and Jakubiak, I think it's fair to say it just hasn't worked out for the lad be that through lack of opportunities or otherwise. I was surprised we signed Upson, when we needed other areas more. We have player's like Russe, who won't get a chance in the league now. I think Jakubiak and Bonham will both be recalled anyway. So we could be looking for a keeper as well again.

Although Upson seems more a DCM than a creative CM.

Great, a defeatist negative manager putting his excuses in already. Thanks Darrell. [br You thank him for that, I’ll thank him for rescuing this poor excuse of a football club. I will also forgive him if we go down and hope he gets the chance to get us back up again if that happens. Each to their own. If we get relegated, DC will not be manager next year. That is simply football.

Each to their own. If we get relegated, DC will not be manager next year. That is simply football. I appreciate that and that philosophy is flawed slightly. If Exeter sacked Tisdsle, for example, at the first sign of trouble they wouldn’t have got the promotions which they did and he left them in a good position when he was forced to leave. No need to sack Clarke as he has the experience which Rovers would be looking for in a new manager anyway if we did go down. If new owners? have their sights on a different man then that would be a different kettle of fish.

DC just doing, it appears, what most on here were telling him to do. May be wrong but I thought he would replace OC, but Ollie has played well so far this season and made it hard for D.C. to drop him. Hence Upson looking like an unnecessary signing. UTG!

A well informed and totally reliable source told me that wael will provide dc with large funding for the january window to the tune of £800k. I was amazed and pleased he passed this information on to me and to show my gratitude i bought a copy of the big issue off of him.

How can Upson be a DCM when he can't seem to tackle and never seems to play alongside Lines but in his place?

Like his honesty most of the time however in this instance maybe better to at least pretend we are going to be signing players, may have served as extra motivation to the current team. Having said that he would then be crucified when we didn't sign anyone...

As regards selling players the ALQ's have already sold anybody decent bar Locks! Plus they've took all the equity out of the club. It's either p1ss poor ownership or asset stripping. Funniest post today - Well done !

Think you will find that all people who purchased terrace tickets were also allowed in to the south stand.
I hope not that wasn't the plan, I know the club messed up against Wimbledon , but it should have been seat tickets only on Saturday, can't this club get anything right. So you reckon we sold them seats to take more money and then did not bother to sale them any food and drink, as the kiosk was shut at the away end.

Perhaps DC just doesn’t like them playing together. UTG

Well Jakubiak can go back where he came from, that’s 1 out for one in Isn't Bonham's loan up in January? The way he's playing I'm sure there will be interest apart from us for him. So that's probably 2 out.
