eric I lost your post now to reply, but where did you see we will potentially appoint someone this week? I had a look on the BP but couldn’t see anything? It was in their Bristol Rovers Page in the daily “Live” stream. No substance to that article other than its been over 2 weeks so the club might be ready to appoint someone

Has done as well as can be expected at Rotherham. Would be worth an interview surely. I hope the club at least contact him to see if he wants that conversation. Might not even be interested but worth the call

We won't carry on picking up decent results playing as we are now. Yesterday was arguably our worst performance of the season. Just 6 shots, 2 on target, no corners, low completed passes, and 45% possession. I lost count of the times we misplaced simple 5 yards passes, and in the second half we barely got out of our defensive third against a very poor Carlisle side. We've played 3 of the bottom 6 and on the balance of play and chances created could easily have lost all 3. I'm delighted we've picked up 7 points but we've been very lucky. I wasn't against his sacking but I think we've actually gone backwards since Barton left. We could still have a decent season if we get the right man in but Mangan isn't that guy in my opinion. Exactly as I see it.

Ffs guys Mangs is not the man for the job. He's had a free pass against 3 weak teams. I've seen nothing tactically that shows he's capable of mixing it up and changing things mid game when needed.
We need a strong manager to come in and implement their plan and tactics. We are in a good position and have a good squad of players. There's no reason we can't make the play offs this season with the right man and a few additions in Jan.
Just because he's won a few games and put points on the board does not mean he's the best man for the job unfortunately

Gotta say I've not enjoyed Mangs' last 3 league games. Really scrappy Against teams we are expected to beat going on league position. Mangs is not the answer, I'll be pretty p!ssed off if he's given the job

Can't see what the rush is really. Mangan needs to be given a chance to show if he has what the owners are looking for and there's always a queue of prospective replacements out there. Another week or two won't really matter. After Carlisle we have a 2 week break, by then a few more managers will be available! Rather get it right than make a bad appointment. Good time to get someone in place really, give them 2 weeks on the training ground working out a plan

11/10 now. Garry Monk 2/1! It dosent take much money to move the price in these markets but someone is having a few quid on Monk he was 10/1 2 days ago and 4/1 yesterday. Fingers crossed its right as he is my choice for the job. Why on earth would you want Gary Monk as manager lol. Hard no 👎

I agree with RD. Having a manager that has managed in the lower leagues and has got two teams into the premiership that understands this club and emotionally connects with the fan base is key for me. Ollie has unfinished business with this club. He’s one of us. He manufactured a style of play that we loved. That game at stoke city when we won 4-1 was such a memory. I’m warming to Ollie getting the role. Very happy memories for me. I agree Rich. He would be a big gamble but he'd come here with a massive amount of goodwill and enthusiasm. Not overwhelmed by the other choices and this is something I think we should take a chance on. It's been something waiting to happen for years but never has. This might be the last chance we get to see how it goes. I think the Mem would go ballistic with joy when he walks back onto the pitch. As would he. It might go badly if course, in which case I'll delete this post..... Nice sentiment and all but the game has moved on a lot since Ollie had any success as a manager. If we want to progress on and off the field, this romantic appointment isn't the way we should be going really

Interested to know how you see the centre backs over the next few weeks. Crama looked good before his injury but struggled earlier in the week imo. Taylor has been one of the only form players recently and looks better (particularly with the ball) than when he was last with us imo. Yeah, it's very harsh to judge on just one game, especially in that weather and with a new manager I'm charge. Definitely not writing anyone off. Brown has been poor all season, I expected a better player when he signed. Hopefully he will come good

Hopefully not too long. The fact AM and JB are Bessie mates doesn't bode well, I can't see him hanging round long tbh Or he'll do well and fancy the job himself cant live off your best mate for ever Good luck Mangs and Wheelo Or they employ the same tactics as before as its what they know. I'd prefer us to go and get an established name. We have a good squad on paper, it's time they earnt their crust with a tactician who can implement a plan and think on their feet in game

Love him or hate him JB is now history. I hope you will all join me in wishing Andy Mangan and Glenn Whelan all the best for how ever long they are in charge. We need to get behind them while they are in charge and hopefully they and the team will take us forward and up the league. Hopefully not too long. The fact AM and JB are Bessie mates doesn't bode well, I can't see him hanging round long tbh

So much better 2nd half but a lot of wayward passing. Glad we managed to get the point
