Don’t waste your breath lincsblue. Midland may as well be a shithead ‘not so secret’ agent.
DC is up there with the best managers that we’ve ever had. If he was perfect and didn’t make mistakes though he wouldn’t be our manager for long would he? It really beggars belief that we have morons pretending to be gasheads criticising and wanting him out,.

Good interview but its obvious he does not really have faith in the owners. The text from steve yates showed that yates has no faith in the owners. The interview told me he expects a lowish budget again next season.

Thanks for that young man.DC no intention of leaving.Brilliant. Great more misery for us next season then No just you personally, why don't you just find another club to support in the midlands as it doesn't sound like Rovers are the club you anymore?

Well he got a decent budget in January and got his mate in has HoR so whilst it maybe "low" it's probably a damn sight better than most club in our position would give him.

At the blue diamond dinner yesterday, twentyman described DC as the best manager he has dealt with and kept calling him a "Top Man"
I agree he is the best we could possibly ever hope for and need him to stay a LONG time

Just listened to it. Very honest, great questions from Geoff & the fans as well - really putting him on the spot!
Loved the way he took the p*ss out of Ellis with the sunglasses
Yates' text frustrated me a bit though, a bit of board bashing from him

Also sounds like Nichols is in last chance saloon unless he pulls it out of the bag early doors next season.

Don’t waste your breath lincsblue. Midland may as well be a shithead ‘not so secret’ agent. DC is up there with the best managers that we’ve ever had. If he was perfect and didn’t make mistakes though he wouldn’t be our manager for long would he? It really beggars belief that we have morons pretending to be gasheads criticising and wanting him out,. It's a weird one with DC, I believe in the guy so much that even if we got relegated I'd stick by him. When he talks about the club everything he says resonates with me. With what he has at his disposal and the state of our clubs 'infrastructure' I truly believe he is working wonders. With the current state of play we really can't ask for anything more than a top half L1 finish/play off push. We are moving forward as a club with him and Wael (even if it isn't as fast as some would like). As Darrell has said before we need to get rid of the 'rag ass rovers' approach if we ever want to progress any higher in the pyramid. Sadly some posters love the old times, probably reminisce about the tote and don't want to see us dragged into the twenty-first century. Same goes for those who are being culled from the club and board and are dissenting. This is why IMO we see so much rubbish written about the board and DC on here. It's no coincidence that the same posters who bash the board and DC are exactly those who complain about the money in football nowadays, complain about all seater stadiums, say that they don't want us to get into the Championship, complain about the introduction of e-turnstiles, openly mock LGBT and BAME initiatives, I could go on. It's because they don't like change. Whether it be social change or change to their beloved Rovers. They want the old times. They want rag-ass-rovers. Maybe it's because I'm at the younger end of the age spectrum but I want progression. No more santa's grotto incidents. With DC I see progression, even if it's just establishing ourselves with a few mediocre seasons in L1 to bring the overall standard of the squad up (I don't want us to tread water but I'd much rather steady eddy League 1 football than fighting relegation or watching League 2 kick and rush). Off the pitch we are progressing too with Wael, albeit slowly. The staff appointments suggest to me the budget is there, or at least the intent to progress and come into the twenty-first century in terms of scouting network, fitness & conditioning staff etc. We'd all like more announcements on the training ground and stadium, but under the old regime we could've very easily gone into administration with the whole UWE debacle. If in the meantime we have to get a few more tent pegs out and make do with an extension of the south stand then so be it. We are watching L1 football at a good standard, with a manager who is passionate about playing football in the right way. We are growing the backroom team, expanding our scouting network and have a great U23 setup with Chris Hargreaves. We're moving forward as a club and I'm all for it.

Good interview but its obvious he does not really have faith in the owners. The text from steve yates showed that yates has no faith in the owners. The interview told me he expects a lowish budget again next season.and what do you expect ? we are living to our means if you want to watch plastic football by plastic football teams there are plenty of examples of failure in that dept..... Sunderland etc etc What a Dam hoot. Living to our means the facts ie the accounts filed at companies House clearly state that we are not living within in our means.
