Thank you Mr Tillson everyone I don’t deal in rumours or speculation, I’m not selling stories nor looking to slur anyone currently in Joey Barton’s cross hairs All I did was post the name Lee Mansell last night and presto there you go , half think he’s a legend, half think we and he need to move on for the good of the club. For me, thanks for what you did, but as I’ve said before this club is the fans and the shirt, everyone else is a tumbleweed . Steve K you don’t have to read it so just knock the thread onto ignore to save any more offence . It’s not your right to tell me or anyone else what is and isn’t ok to post or what anyone should or shouldn’t wait to do. You’re allowed an opinion but you are in the minority I think. When 95% of what is written on this forum is complete and utter speculation and bullisht you’d think a bit of accuracy would be welcome. like match reports and players scores. Ho hum but no there’s always someone that can get offended about something. Welcome to 2021 Blackbeard Nice to have an ITK actually be ITK Does this mean that the 0.01% is now 0.02%

To be fair to Blackbeard, he doesn't post lots of information, but when he does, it's usually spot on. The players will know amongst themselves who has been told they are not part of JB's plans, it's not a state secret. I have no idea if the majority of forum users want people who are genuinely ITK to share information, when it is not harmful to do so? Thank you Mr Tillson everyone I don’t deal in rumours or speculation, I’m not selling stories nor looking to slur anyone currently in Joey Barton’s cross hairs All I did was post the name Lee Mansell last night and presto there you go , half think he’s a legend, half think we and he need to move on for the good of the club.

It’s sad to see Mansell go because he was the last link to that great period in our history; the back to back promotions, the indefatigable team spirit and close connection felt between the squad and the fans. Mansell was a real leader of men, a proper character who could raise the spirits of his team mates when needed and put them in line just as easily. It will be interesting to see if DC picks up the phone. If not, then Torquay very well might. Best of luck with whatever you do next, Lee.

Just the sort of character you might think JB would retain in some capacity as an inspirational leader, with a lot of experience and a real understanding of the club. But that's probably a bit sentimental. I'm not there to see how JB and LM work together.

I’m no medical expert, but I don’t think Rodman’s vertigo was caused by the diet the sport scientists were giving him. then you clearly don’t understand modern day football. This is the sports scientist Job amongst many other things .....and I think your struggling to understand an unpleasant medical condition. It may be the “sports scientist Job”, but I don’t think as a medical condition it’s as simple as that. It’s unlikely that they would be able to resolve such a complex medical condition without medical help. If it were many of us would be lining up at their door to get what’s a very unpleasant and sometimes debilitating condition resolved! In fact I would suggest it’s little to do with “sports science” though of course their particular skills may be able to support any medical treatment that was given. UTG!

Joey’s revolution is given me horrible flashbacks of Paul Buckle’s time here, completely new squad, new management staff, and when he was ousted and chanted off the pitch, McGhee and Ward did their best out of the ragass under contract players Buckle bought in.

DC basically did the same though but didn’t really change much of the management team. Just because Buckle failed, doesn’t mean JB is the same and will fail. And if he does, we roll the dice again and try a different tact. The only thing I ask is that our owner and his team whom remains learn and grow from their mistakes. All we can do is give our trust to JB

The difference was Buckle arrived alone from L2 Torquay leaving behind his mentor/DoF, Colin Lee, Barton's arrived from L1 Fleetwood with his whole gang in support. I doubt any one left at Rovers now will go nose to nose with him like they did with Buckle? Whether it brings success or not is anybody's guess, as it is with any new manager. I assume they'll be a bigger fall out/cost this time if he does fail. Life's never dull at Rovers, that's for sure.

Perhaps he's just useless at managing players, or he just got on the wrong side of JB or he just wants someone he can trust 100%, who knows the reasons.

And he is quite right to get rid of both the heads of sports science and medical. First team squad not fit enough injuries not dealt with correctly all within their remit. Really? Some of the injuries have been to players with known injury problems. There's only so much a medical team can do - they can't make you impervious to injury. And I don't actually buy that we were THAT unfit. Just more JB excuses in my eyes. I got a neaky suspicion you are not to fond of Joey Barton 😂 😂😂😂

All we can do is give our trust to JB DC did get rid of a lot of the deadwood from the playing side but he did keep a core that then got us back up. Mildenhall, Lockyer, Parkes, McChrystal, Brown all stayed and were the first choice defence in the Conference season.

Club gets relegated finishing bottom and players and coaches lose their jobs shocker 😮! I have sympathy for Manse and really hope he finds a new role ASAP. But he did know the risks - in fact I am sure he said as much on a GasCast pod.. basically that players bear the weight of not just their own careers when fighting for relegation/promotion; but they are also playing to keep all the back room staff and development/youth team players in employment. The knowledge that if he missed that penalty at Wembley and we might have had to spend another year in the Conference could have led to yet more cuts across the organisation gives some perspective into the pressure he must have been under. It might not be his fault that he has been sacked (if indeed it was the club that terminated his contract), but he was very aware that the overall failure to get results on the pitch can lead to staff across the business losing their jobs. That said; if Joey Barton brings in his own U23 manager as replacement then it is unlikely to be a cost-cutting exercise and more to do with the perceived performance by Lee in his role. Which is difficult for those of us on the outside to gauge; other than to look at the U23 players that have come through under his tenure, I suppose?

I imagine it would be similar to the Tisdale fella - 'football operations' if he gets a title, would have thought if he were going to be official he would have had one when Joey came in. Seems like he can have/do what ever is needed for the big reset to me.

“Last year, the pre-season wasn’t done at the correct intensity, so that will be laid at Ben Garner’s door and it will be tough for him to argue that," he said.
“Whoever put the team together and recruited the personnel, I think the buck stops with you as the manager and that will rightly be laid at his door. I don’t think he can have an argument with that. He put this group together, I gather. Him and Tommy Widdrington, and they’re just miles off the level as the league table shows.
“I’m forward now. Anything from this moment on is me, so anyone who comes in or leaves the building is my responsibility. The buck will stop with me, which is fantastic.
“The owner is a superb guy, he wants the best for the football team, he really, really does, and he’s been let down by people he has put in positions of influence.
“Any of them want to gripe or send their lawyers to send me a letter as they did last time when I outed them, no problem. I’ll show you all the footage if you want, I will release all their training data, their training footage and you’ll see it and say, ‘God.’
“They should be struck off, I told you that at the time and I will tell it to their face when I see them.”
----
These comments are just an embarrassment and smacks of unprofessionalism and deflection.
No class whatsoever.
