..... recognises the hapless Barton. It should have struck midnight on his tenure as Rovers manager. Another imposter, who has achieved the almost impossible task of replacing last year's playing dross with a bunch of misfits that are even worse. If he thinks recruiting injury prone veterans and cast-offs that nobody else wanted is progress he is even more misguided and delusional than most Rovers fans now believe him to be. Clarke and Phelan the icing on an extremely unimpressive recruitment cake. My worry now is how does Barton's replacement (he surely can't survive) turn things around? Not much in the squad to build on, and a truly pitiful set of attacking options. As for promotion we should be more concerned about the other end of the table. Are there two sides worse than us? Not at the moment there aren't.
There are others in the Rovers hierarchy who shouldn't escape accountability. At the very least they are cupable of disastrous selections and decision making. Their track record is abysmal and they shouldn't be afforded an opportunity to make the same mistakes again.

Shambles from top to bottom. EVERYTHING about us (apart from maybe the training ground now) IS non-league: the manager, stadium, coaching staff and playing squad are all amateur. We are a professional outfit by name only.
We deserve to go down. I'm going to stick my neck out and say - after only 8 games - if this side of clowns stays up this season it will be a disgrace and another team will surely feel hard done by. We are f**king awful.

I would say we are most definitely a very average League Two club, both in terms of the playing side and the facilities.
Of course, there is not much difference between the bottom half of League Two and the top half of the National League...
