If the rumours are true about the cut in the playing budget then we wouldn't be able to offer him the same wages? The rumour was he was offered a deal on reduced terms. He was classy I thought in the interview, no criticism of anyone and explained the tail off in form due to the uncertainty.

Another bit of lovely Barton business that must have cost us 10s of 1000s. At least he had more than one tone 🤣 So you are saying Joey got all his signings wrong ? Elliott Anderson, Antony Evans, etc. .. you haters, "we've got our rovers back" nonsense; cannot wait to see the quality of players Monotone Matty brings to the MEM. Any chance you could be more respectful of our manager, I take it from your sign in that you are in your sixties and really should know better, I find it irksome that you cannot give Matt your full support, we are Rovers fans and I support whoever is in charge. Whatever occupation you had, would you have accepted criticism just because of the way you spoke?

Why would a Championship player who lives with his Coronation St girlfriend and their young baby in Blackpool drop to L1 and have to live miles away from his family during the week? Absolutely no idea, just passing in what someone who claims to know him personally said. Won't be going all Gas Go Marching In on you if he does sign No go full on GGMI with bells and whistles 😂😂😂

Got on well with MT but too much travel for a man of his age. Actually spoke very well of MT which is encouraging as he’s a good judge of a man and a manager. Sure he didn’t say he was a fraud or out of his depth?! 🤣 Said he d rather be at Chippenham better Rondo s 😂😂😂

It has to be true, as it's on here 😂. Has he even had a trial here?? It's not been mentioned anywhere. If he had a trial, when was it?? Oh its definitely True, He Trained but i think it was meant to be 3 days but I only know of him training the 1 day. I know for fact he wasn't impressed with the standard of training that day and that again comes from 2 very reliable sources of whom know him very well. and it was the 15th April. Do you want to know what he was wearing? ( They gave him Rovers Training Kit ) I believe you, so maybe a stupid question but he s not interested in signing for us, correct?

I hope Matt has a successful pre season, and am 100 % behind him, it will take some time to get the team firing with so many changes, but Liam Rosenior would be a great option at Christmas if things are going awry. You're 100% behind MT and it will take time to get the team firing. But apparently that'll have to be by Christmas and you name a successor! 5 months is a long time in football, if things ain't going well might need a new pair if eyes on it, and a transfer window, we cannot afford league 2 again. Brighton have a model where they have plans for players and managers leaving, I call it being prepared.

Corey Addai Crawley keeper, looked amazing last night out of contract soon, 26 years old, ex Arsenal academy, 6 foot 4, looks a great keeper and distribution was brilliant.

Looks strong in the air and decent on the floor, got to be worth a punt.

Sad to see Evo go, get the best price including hefty % sell on, then re invest some of it into the squad. Will be excited to see a new team built, but they'll need a fair few pre season friendlies to gel. I’m sure the Tottenham fans were excited when the Bale transfer fee was available to be re-invested. Hope I’m wrong but can see this all ending in tears Every transfer is a gamble for every Aaron collins and JCH you get a stefan Payne and Mickey Evans, even the top clubs get it wrong!

I was impressed with the interview, threw some funny comments in as well, drinking pints in Magaluf when his playing season was over, current players too cool for pints.
He is very thoughtful and delivers the right image, just because he is monotone doesn't mean he is boring, quietly spoken so the listener has to concentrate.
There will be no big claims for next season, I'm cautiously optimistic that with a few decent signings, we ll have a team we identify with, and not loath like much of this season.

Lots of posters saying they don't support Taylor and won't be renewing their season tickets. Some of them were the same ones giving out at those who refused to back Barton. Where are all the "get behind the manager" brigade when you want them? Hugo I renew whoever is the manager, immaterial to me, be nice to have a less traumatic season, more disappointed with the clubs efforts to squeeze every last penny out of us.

Will Ferry Cheltenham or Frazer Blake Tracy at swindle both rated left backs, always liked Lee Evans ex Gas youth midfielder now available from Pompey.
Liked the look of Joe Low, Josh's son who s at Wyscum.
Plenty of players available to join the Devon mafia!

He lives in Bristol apparently Sweaqr I’ve seen him about Mangotsfield. Still rate him but think he may be a bit old for us if we’re young down the young and hungry route. Comes into My Garage at Emersons green lovely chap, always friendly, is locally based.

Cant argue but shame about Greenslade So the Hoole rumours wrong. Gaschat, never change. Although he could turn down, but I hope not. Wonder what we have offered Rossiter. Hoole ain't staying Percy, he might get an offer, but wants to go.

Is it not such a bad thing to get some Exeter players in. They finished above in the league with some impressive performances and we have struggled against them in recent encounters. For a fan owned club their finances are in better shape than ours and they have made significant improvements to their ground. They even built a successful ladies team. I would see Exeter as an example would should follow. Wouldn't it be fun if we the fans owned Rovers?Jeez, just spat my coffee all over the place. Imagine some on here being on the board or responsible for managing & recruitment 🤦♂️🤦♂️ Pirate, " I've got clips from all the out of contract players! " Marshy " Ffs we ll take number 8, 200 and 4508 on the list! "
