Mark Little seemed to speak highly of his manager and his influence in the dressing room. Not quite the bullying ghoul the naysayers would have you believe.

GC is a good guy and calls it like it is, and makes the most of what he is given

Im backing Gc. Having spoken to him at that fun day he was friendly open and seems to have a great sense of humour. Whether hes going to be a success as a manager only time will tell. But he kept us up last season so he deserves some respect

deserves some respect and time to learn his job, Holloway was a disaster with us in his first season and then he went onto deliver the best football I’ve ever seen at Bristol Rovers.
He also deserves respect and a chance after what he did last season which was nothing short of a miracle.
His star man nearly looked back to best last night as well, we could be here at 5pm with 7 points and 10th in the table which everyone on this forum would have took at 3pm at Blackpool after 5 games and still in the cup!

Needs to learn when to make subs, makes subs late when a game is done and they have no impact. I want to see inspired subs, games is deadlocked and change is made and makes a difference.
Cant surely play so many defensive players all season.
Still go to sleep hoping we are going to pick up a few attacking midfielders before the close of the window.

I agree with this, last night the right moves could have turned that into a 5-0 win with their giant centre half on a red card. You stretch a team with a less man and certainly with two less but bringing on Bennett meant we went through the middle which helped them. Hare was getting so much ball that him and Rodman overlapping would have tore them wide open |

Miracle? We were 4 points adrift with well over half a season to go! It was a job well done, but let's not over egg this! Re Ollie, don't forget he took over at a time when he lost probably the best striker this club has had in the last 30 years and more...and that was before a ball had been kicked! 17th wasn't the worst outcome in that first season. |

A glance at Coughlan’s history reveals he has been a first team coach for about ten years. Which suggests he knows a bit more about when to make substitutions than most. We, the fans, have no idea about the discussions between players and the bench that take place during the matches. It’s not always tactical as fitness and slight muscle injuries play a part. Plus we always have the benefit of hindsight. |

To be fair the last word that springs to mind when I look at our subs bench is 'inspiring'. |

But he kept us up last season so he deserves some respect I'd say A LOT because we were *ed when Dazzer left. made 2 excellent signings in Ogogo and JCH and we stopped being pushovers. |

Don't know him personally but having kept us up last season I think he deserves a 'fair crack at the whip' at least for this season, short of really poor results between now and Christmas.
I was looking at our managerial history the other day, usually when a long standing manager goes (thinking Tann, Megson, Francis, Holloway and Trollope) we go through a series of short term appointments. Hopefully this will be an exception.
