Yes. They were in the process of avoiding it until Joey took over.
Then he had a long list of hugely winnable games, against teams around or below us - all of which he lost. So like the recent BG fan boys you're now trying to re-write history, before Tisdale was dismissed we hadn't won for weeks and even managed to lose 7-1 to L1 giants Accrington and he was suggesting we needed a magician to help us score! We did pick up when Barton first arrived but we then lost both Rodman and Nicholson and Oztumer has never found any form since he had COVID. Given we have defenders who give a goal away a game and strikers who can't score it's hardly surprising we're heading for L2. I'm trying to re-write history We were not in the relegation zone when Barton took over. That is a FACT Topper. Therefore YOU are the one attempting to re-write history. I know you're notorious for posting complete sh*t on here, but f**k me, that takes the biscuit.

Losing to all the teams around us has definitely sealed our fate. We have had very, very winnable games against Northampton, Wigan, Swindon etc since JB came in that would see us 8 points better off than we are right now. Losing games and doing anything other than concentrating 100% on the relegation battle and keeping your head down is a joke. Openly admitting you turned the channel over to watch champs league instead of MK Dons, our opponents tomorrow, when we can still stay up? Apparently he watched all of our pre season training videos but can’t watch 90 minutes of one of our opponents! A game that is winnable and could just keep us in the fight! He has talked about Everest, Gordon Ramsay, striking off doctors, the coliseum, army generals, other coaches training methods, cancer etc etc but still managed to play Dave T at left centre half when he hadn’t played a game for months. Look beyond the bullshit Your the one talking BS as JB clearly said he flicked over to catch a few minutes of the champs league, unless they both kicked off at 7:45 then that could have been half time anyway, at least he watched some of the game given Tisdale claimed he'd not watched any of our games when he arrived and BG gave the impression he' never watched a L1 game in his life. JB like most of us is now just waiting for the season to end so the shore of sh1t BG brought in can all be moved on and we can sign some proper players, talking of BG I see unlike JB he must be still sat on his arse collecting his pay rather getting a new job putting out the cones elsewhere.

I'm over his talk now. If he could have backed up his talk with results (i.e. us NOT getting relegated) then it would hold a lot more sway for me. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the guy, I think he's an interesting character, quite articulate and certainly passionate, which I like. However, he has to convert his talk into results for me now. I've become too cynical to accept anything else. Yet people on here suggest that if we had not sacked BG then we wouldn't be going down... Sorry meet me half way. BG had the worst record of any Rovers manager ever and took us from being 4th in L1 to creating the mess of a squad we have that JB is holding the hand of as we head to L2.Tisdale had one window to change it and was dismissed, Joey has had nothing, no window and he is working with a pile of horse sh** and trying to build as castle with it. I love JB's and how he talks c satmon sense.I haven't been able to say that since DC was here. Yeah but BG record doesn’t count last season because Coughlan didn’t do pre season right and that’s why Anssi, JCH and the ball boy got injured so we should really wipe it off the record.

More turgid garbage. More blame games. More "it ain't my fault guvnor". Christ, the bloke thinks he's a world beater because he was a pretty decent player. News for you Joey - being a half-decent player does not make you Alex Fergusson - stop all this sh*te talk like you are some proven manager when - the truth is - you've got less out of this bunch than the 2 before you (who should be "struck off" - i.e. never work again!). You couldn't make it up. "I knew I had the court case coming up on June 1 and I imagine after that my stock and managerial position might be a little bit more appealing.". Haha, wow; says it all. The bloke is a total and utter narcissist with delusions of grandeur. You are a very, VERY average (at best) manager Joey - do not flatter yourself - one half decent finish at Fleetwood Town and he thinks he's Pep Guardiola hahaha. Credit to him, he knows how to work a crowd. And for many that will be enough (see thread starter). For a growing number of us, we can see it for what it is - words and bluster - I'm half expecting a scooby-do style end to this at full-time on the final day, where Joey Barton is unmasked to reveal Steve Hamer. A growing number of us that's brilliant. I'm pretty sure that it's the same names on here that are saying the same things and believe what they are saying. JB is a confident man which is a good thing to possess as it rubs off on others. Will he turn it around who knows but I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do with his players and backroom staff plus a full pre season to work on fitness and style of play. If he does what he says he will we could be on the right road to where we need to be heading. If he dosent I will be the first to hold my hands up and say I'm wrong but to just say it's a load of garbage without giving the man a chance to prove what he can do is very short sighted. No manager could have dealt with losing the quality of players he has but has also bought in players from the outside like Martinez and Walker and giving them a go. The Daly situation is concerning as he did state when he came here he was looking forward to working with him and we haven't seen him but don't know what's happening behind the scenes.

But what has he improved so far? We're still conceding stupid goals, we're still not scoring and we're getting fewer points that at any other point during the season. Not only are we not improving, one could quite easily argue we are going backwards. The comparison to Garner is soooo strong. Garner last season was in freefall - but all we had was "well it's not his team, give him time, judge him next season" blah blah blah. Christ, do we not learn?! Keep burying your head in the sand and pinning everything on blind faith, afterall it's "Joey Barton" - whatever that means or counts for.

Your bizarre continued defence of Garner now seems to just be solely "he is less sh** than someone else" If we take it at face value and say all 3 managers this season are sh**, he is the only one that signed a full squad of his own players and had a full pre-season. He is head and shoulders the sh**test manager we have ever had. The fact the the following 2 are nearly as bad is not really something the BG fan club should be shouting about.

Well I for one have joined the JB-sceptic side in the last few weeks, so in that sense RD was perfectly correct in his "growing number of us" comment. Even if it only grew by 1, that being me. I was very confident with him in his first few weeks. Little alarm bells started ringing when he absolutely hung Ehmer out to dry in the press. Ehmer has been dire, but Barton doing that in public was out of order and exceedingly unprofessional. Further alarm bells started ringing quite loudly for me when he came out with his extraordinarily unprofessional comments about Garner and Tisdale needing to be "struck off" so to speak. His continuous outbursts and rants about referees, players, other clubs, former managers. It's turned my feelings towards him very sour in recent weeks. Still, after all is said and done, I will continue to hope that he makes a success of us. He has passion and it seems that the players like him, which is great. But the way he airs his dirty laundry in public, coupled with our slide towards relegation, and my patience has worn thin.

Topper I really don't know how to break this down any simpler for you, but here goes. Relegation from League 1 happens for clubs in the bottom four of the league table. We were not in the bottom four. As such "we were in the process of avoiding relegation". If you're not able to grasp the above, then I think we should just leave the conversation there.

He is head and shoulders the sh**test manager we have ever had. The fact the the following 2 are nearly as bad is not really something the BG fan club should be shouting about. A full squad that he signed to play possession football, a squad that weren’t in the relegation spots after playing 4 or 5 of the top 6 teams in the league in the opening 11 games. A team that hadn’t lost to any team around them or below 12th place. You can bang on and on as much as you like we weren’t going down. Garner got 30% of our wins, 37.5% of our draws and only 20% of our losses in 11 games. Tisdale got 30% of our wins, 37.5% of our draws and 37.5% of our losses in 15 games. Barton has 30% of our wins, 25% of our draws and 37.5% of our losses in 14 games. So tell me again how Garner has relegated us? Barton has lost to Swindon and Wigan and drawn with Northampton! Tisdale lost to Rochdale and Swindon and drew with Wigan! The lowest team Garner lost to in 11 games were in 10th place. You are absolutely off your chops if you can’t see we weren’t going down with that record. We spent a summer recruiting and preparing players to play a possession based football style and then recruit a manager that plays chaos, sack him and sign a manager that plays a high press and we can’t work out why it’s not working?! Compare Daly and Hanlan goals under Garner v Daly and Hanlan goals under Barton... Ok I’ll do it for you! Hanlan had 4 goals under Garner and 1 under Barton. Daly had 4 goals under garner and 0 under Barton.

So are you saying we are not competitive in most games and our style of play has gone backwards since he has arrived. Again no manager could have coped with losing your best players in Nicholson,Rodman and even Grant who got alot of undue criticism but is sorely missed and was getting better every game he played under JB. And to be left with 3 strikers with 2 that can't hit a barn door and are certainly not league one standard and Westbrooke who was meant to be are marquee signing but has been very disappointing for the majority of the season. Losing Ehmer for me wasn't a bad thing as he has been nothing but poor this season but was meant to be our leader and pivotal centre half. Yes our defence make mistakes but watch the games most teams make massive mistakes our problem is we have noone to capatilise on them which is a major recruitment failure not Bartons fault. There are plenty of things that have gone wrong this season and this is a total different scenario than Garner who had a January transfer window as soon as he got here and inherited a team who were full of confidence when he arrived and he had JCH to score goals for him so that comparison is poor. Why shouldn't JB be given the chance to do things his way and get a transfer window and pre season to see what he can do or should we just fire another manager and keep the revolving door moving.

To be fair bridgwatergas, whilst you are clearly more pro-Barton than I am right now, you make good points and I don't disagree with what you're saying. I do though think that Barton should have done better, and I do think he needs to cut out his annoying unprofessional rants. Certainly I do not want to see him sacked, but I am very disappointed in his performance as manager so far, and more than a little concerned about the summer and next season. I really do hope though that JB can come back and rub my face in it if we're gunning for promotion next year and playing teams off the park.

Too old to cut and paste but love Joey's interview with Sam Frost, he will get us into the championship and when he does I'm going to do a GGMI boom on this post. Appreciates he has not done a good job but wow what some uppercut repostes. What's he said this time? The cleaning lady is a lady garden? The bloke who turns on the overhead projector is a prick? Showers too cold? Soup too hot? Doesn't like the carpet in the clubhouse?

I'm over his talk now. If he could have backed up his talk with results (i.e. us NOT getting relegated) then it would hold a lot more sway for me. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the guy, I think he's an interesting character, quite articulate and certainly passionate, which I like. However, he has to convert his talk into results for me now. I've become too cynical to accept anything else. Yes he needs to hit the ground running and we need to be in the top half at Christmas or all of his talk will look stupid. I’m not totally sold on him but I’ve got more faith in him to take us forward than I did Garner or Tisdale so he needs a transfer window and half a season before even thinking about getting rid. Sacking managers left right and centre doesn’t work at this level.

There are plenty of things that have gone wrong this season and this is a total different scenario than Garner who had a January transfer window as soon as he got here and inherited a team who were full of confidence when he arrived and he had JCH to score goals for him so that comparison is poor. Why shouldn't JB be given the chance to do things his way and get a transfer window and pre season to see what he can do or should we just fire another manager and keep the revolving door moving. But all of those points are relevant to Tisdale too? He had the same strikeforce and injuries - he was without our best player (i.e. Ansi!). So that doesn't really cut it. And again, couldn't care less about "how we look" - all I care about right now are results; and they're pathetic. It seems once again the best argument for keeping Barton is "we can't just fire another one". Lucky, lucky man it seems.

Too old to cut and paste but love Joey's interview with Sam Frost, he will get us into the championship and when he does I'm going to do a GGMI boom on this post. Appreciates he has not done a good job but wow what some uppercut repostes. What's he said this time? The cleaning lady is a lady garden? The bloke who turns on the overhead projector is a prick? Showers too cold? Soup too hot? Doesn't like the carpet in the clubhouse? Very close.
