Worrall. Appreciate it will take time but if half a season is treated as experimental then what's the incentive to attend games and buy season tickets for next season if it's not working? It's easy for some to say support. But its not cheap for many to Attend games if they dont have to be result based. You gave to give fans some incentive to go and with a dwindling fan base and a ageing support that isn't going to be easy. We get some results,the new players impress,the teams new identity starts to show itself and we all feel excited about next season and the january crisis is a distant memory. We carry on losing,the new players are simply not up to league football,the team has no identity,we all feel like next season will be a disaster. One of these two.

How has this topic created 11 pages? What a Dam joke and lack of respect for a manager that has only been at our club for 2 months! The twat who feels BG comes across as a tosser with our ever meeting him deserves a kick in the tits! Who are you we've never met you nor has BG so what gives you the right to stereotype a person based on a bad start as manager?

Uncertainty that’s football is what keeps us coming back for more.

To be fair reading through it most on here feel that the new manager needs to be given more time and are willing to accept that. I think it’s gone to so many pages because people feel so strongly about that. You don’t give someone the job to manage a group of 30 or so people , a budget to spend and then sack him after 8 weeks in any line of employment. Footballs full of impatient people making knee jerk reactions these days and it’s getting worse and the game is suffering from it as a result.

I agree but the guy who states BG is a tosser is out of order and has no respect from me hence why we all should have locked his thread!

Fair comments I guess the challenge for BG over the remainder of the season is to show that the football is going to be worth watching as well as producing results. Personally I'm looking forward to seeing the new Rovers develop, as well as we did under Coughlan we weren't great to watch and I'm sure that had a part to play in the decision over the new manager. It goes without saying that in the short term we could do with some positive results but at a risk of repeating myself this is a long term project, imo provided fans can see progress and a clear future plan they'll continue to support.

I get your point but I’d rather we spoke up and against these kind of posts if we disagree with them than just went oh that’s really rude you can’t say that and locked it. If the thread was just countless posts saying ooh you can’t say that then yeah - boring - lock it , but there’s some good individual opinions based on the history of our club , where we’ve been and where we think we may or not be heading in the future. We’re at a real crossroads at the moment with everything that’s gone on this season, I’ve lost count of how many different people we’ve had in charge on match day , at times I wasn’t even sure who was picking the team. Talk about a season of two halves so far, or more like a half of one a quarter of the other. Still another quarter or so to go and who knows how it will end up.

My reason to lock the thread was for the personal attack of BG as a person when the OP hasn't ever met him! Yes I'm like all Gas right now feeling down about his run as current manager but to label a person as a tosser is out of order in my opinion. BG will have the remainder of the season and the start of next season too but him as a person who hasn't of yet delivered results shouldn't be labelled as a tosser!

Well I haven’t met him either so I’ve got no idea what he’s really like as a person other than what I’ve seen in his interviews but anyone can say he is in a forum and anyone can say he isn’t a tosser. I bet half the Man Utd squad didn’t really like Fergy and Brian clough wasn’t that likeable a character in my opinion but they got results. Maybe being a bit of a tosser can help in football management. If we still haven’t picked up a win in a few weeks there will be more of it so strap in.

I think the word tos*er means a lot to you, more than it does me. I was implying that he comes across as smarmy, untrustworthy.. When a manager comes out after the game and spouts the stuff he does about the match when 6k plus people can clearly see it was completely different to what he says he saw during the match.. his judgement and genuinity HAS to be called into question.

I disagree. This is why many jobs have probationary periods and break clauses of at least 3 months so if the hire turns out to be hopelessly incompetent you can move on for the best of both[/i] parties. Hopefully after full time today a few more will recognise this. And that we need to draw a line under this period of our history.

I get giving managers chances. I would normally be on the other end of the argument. But we’re not talking someone taking over a team in a relegation battle who haven’t won in ten were talking a team who were debatably storming up the league and on a great run who have flipped overnight. There are so many warning signs from my perspective.

But people at the game are saying that today is one of the best attacking games this season. Got to give him a few more matches minimum I think but each to their own. Ultimately it doesn’t matter whether we think he should go or not it but only matters what the board think. I think they’ll give him a few more games minimum. (Dunno what’s going on with the quote boxes)
