As for DC, his remit was top five and he's got us at the least second place. He deserves another shot next season unless he gets taken elsewhere. Another manager = another rebuilding job, which we cannot afford - in both time and in wages. If we fail to go up DC will have to rebuild the team anyway,players leaving for pastures new and getting rid of the crap ones |

I have to say I was very surprised by the change in formation and the absence of Dawson yesterday. Three up top has only ever earned us one point at a time this season. Surely if I can recognise that the manager can?

If it's "not failing" then I agree but if it's "being as effective as we have been up front in our last three games" then I don't think anyone can say that. |

By working I mean that we were winning until the system change. |

Unfair critisism of DC again yesterday IMO. We often question his selections, but if he gets the result, I button it and say well done. Given our form in the last 6 months, he has proved right much more than not. Yesterday he was right until the last two minutes, you can't account for your keeper making a mistake. And for those questioning dropping Mildy, everyone was very complimentary of the strong decision by DC at the time. I know people are upset, emotional, but some of the negativity directed at certain management/players has been out of order. Not me. I said picking Puddy would come back to bite us on the ass. Didnt take long did it? I wish you were our manager |

Why do these sorts of threads always turn into massive willy waving competitions?

If we don't go up this season I wouldn't be sorry to see him replaced for his failure. Glad you're not on the board then. Did I say I wanted to be on the board? Did I say Id want anything to do with the decision making? Pretty sure I didn't |

If we fail to go up DC will have to rebuild the team anyway,players leaving for pastures new and getting rid of the crap ones Rebuild no, few minor tweeks yes. It will all depend on finances and whether the players who still have large contracts aren't sold off to reduce wages. I doubt if we will try to keep Lines if we stay down ~ I don't believe we can afford it. With parachute payments gone we will have to cut wages again. Anyway I don't want to think about that ~ yet! We have a league to get out of ! UTG |

Why are we panicking when the season is not over yet? I am happy with the progress made. It is not perfect but there is progress. We will go up next week, I am certain. Everybody stay calm We do not need to be top until the last whistle next week. We will be top. UTG.

I'll personally reserve judgement on DC until next week/the Play Offs as if we bottled it again next week then don't make the final I'll really wonder if DC is the right choice for next season. However, I'm confident that we have a good enough squad, and manager, to still get promoted

We have a league to get out of ! UTG I can't wait to see the accounts if we have to reduce wage budgets again, because money is being watered away somewhere. No more managers or Scottish/injured players to pay off... I understand if the youth team budget has to be scaled back, as I believe that funding will go, but with the new rules on lower payments for the big boys stealing youngsters I won't lose any sleep over it. |

Ha, I know sh1theads that are more supportive of rovers than you! You are very incorrect. I just tell the truth. Sometimes it upsets people, but I am rarely wrong. We have players in this squad that are clearly up to the job and others that sadly are not anywhere near good enough. You are rarely right also, more centre if you ask me |

DC has done a good job but with less tinkering may have done slightly better.
Goalkeepers when they make a mistake generally leads to a goal, look at Readings keeper in the cup, brilliant throughout the game and kept his side in the game, then one error oh dear.
We have one more bite of the apple, just hope, if results go against us, that we have the impetus and driving force to see the job through, and not flounder against the likes of FGR or Eastleigh over two games
Somehow I think we will be ok, as long as the tactics are right, we need more width and go go for it.

Another manager = another rebuilding job, which we cannot afford - in both time and in wages. DC said he would take Rovers straight back into the football league, non of this top five ********. He still can get us promoted, he was in charge for 8 games last season and we were relegated, not all his fault I know; I am not settling for top five in the conference. This is a results business.

Don't forget the elephant in the room, the Sainsbury's court case, if we fail to go up and lose that as well DC could well decide he'd be better off elsewhere. Puddy's clanger yesterday could cost us far more than just promotion.

Didnt take long did it? this is coming from the man who thinks Taylor is a useless waster, so your opinion on selection in my view is less valued than the the turd I just curled out down the bog bout ten minuets ago. |
