When appointed 22.2.21 Rovers were 19th position after 28 league games with 18 matches to play his record Won 3 Drew 2 Lost 13 picking up just 11 points ending the campaign with five consecutive defeats without scoring and subsequently relegated in bottom position with
38 points.
Currently 13.2.23 in 13th position having played 30 matches
Won 10 Drew 7 Lost 13 with 37 points.
With 16 matches left Rovers probably need at least 13 points from a possible 48 points to avoid another relegation.
With Ipswich Barnsley Wycombe Portsmouth Derby Sheffield Wednesday and Bolton still to visit the Mem not forgetting a difficult trip to league leaders Plymouth Argyle there are many very difficult fixtures left.

So we have lost 26 out of 58 in this division? That surprised me.
If we continue at that rate we could be in big, big trouble.

Two years in charge and two threads on the subject. Hopefully the unwelcome one will be gone very soon.🤔

But he did build a beautiful flowing team over the course of last season that won promotion.
Unfortunately those times seem like a different world right now.
How we need a positive result tomorrow night.

How we need a positive result tomorrow night. Last season was a lot down to the lucky signing of Billy Elliott. you make your own luck, it was Barton’s connections with a coach at Newcastle that resulted in Anderson coming here, if we’re going to criticise (putting it mildly) Barton for perceived poor signings, and we’ve all done it on here, then we must surely give him credit when his contacts in the game come up with a little gem like Anderson. This first season back was always going to be harder than last season, trouble is too many posters want him out, or that’s the impression I get, I’m not aiming this at you by the way just pointing out my opinion about a lucky signing. |

Is any of that true? The alternative narrative, the one I heard, was that Anderson was not scouted by Barton nor seen. That Newcastle had higher hopes for the player in that window, wanting him in the Championship on or L1. Our luck was that nobody came in for him and we picked him up in the last hours of the last day of that window. That it worked out so well for us is a matter of fact, but I suspect it had naff all to do with Barton's talent spotting abilities, as has been shown in the two windows since. |
