In years of following Rovers, has to be the worst performance I've ever seen. Always been a DC backer, but changed today. Must be a watershed moment for our football club.

Simple really as DC trusted JC more than Martin, who's another duff recruitment post our employment of a HoR! I didnt agree with Martin from the start but what about Kelly? Like I said I dont blame this on the defeat but just shows how hypocritical DC can be with some of his beliefs Yeah insists on his central defenders playing on their correct side and then plays every wide player on their wrong side. Don’t see how the central defenders thing is that important but playing our best central ball winner out wide is clearly a sh**e move but he doesn’t think so. As is playing a right sided defender at left back a right winger in the left and a left winger on the right. But a left footed defender on the right side of central defence oh god no that would be ludicrous!! Rapidly losing my patience with DC to be honest. Give him the next two games to show he’s learned from the many mistakes he’s making every game and if he’s sticking to this crap and we need someone else. Don’t know what those coaching badges have done to him. |

Listened to the radio for last ten minutes - I'd have Hamer removed from his radio duties immediately. You can't have the Chairman talking about the team in a downbeat fashion. His job should be to lead from the front. He's crap at both! Season starts in November with DC - fingers crossed. Funny that, DC said the season was going to start in October! Fact! |

That was painfull to watch, water poor tactics, slow tempo, no pass and move just lump it in the channels to our one striker with little to no support.
Can not go on like this and expect to stay up.
Four league games and counting without a goal.

We certainly have a poor team - but I'm not so sure we have a team full of poor players. DC's team selection and tactics seems to baffle just about everyone including I'd suggest some of the players. I've felt for a while now that it's time for him to move on and maybe someone coming in might just find that players at the club, played in their strongest position may just turn this situation around. I'm sure this 'someone' would not feel any allegiance to certain players that have been played in the team far too long despite not really justifying their selection.

He has been shifted sideways to allow the CEO who was brought in by Wael to seal the boat and not allow any leaks about anything to come out. What has Mr Starnes done other than to take a page in the programme and talk about what is happening on the pitch, without no mention whatsoever about training ground/stadium plans etc etc. If that is what a CEO is for, I will do the job for a tenth of what he is paid! And our Chairman no longer has a page in the programme as far as I am aware. I now feel sure our Chairman is in the dark like the rest of us and I for one don't find his comments offputting on the commentary, in fact I find them totally refreshing after the totally bias commentary we had to put up with from Keith Brookman when he was employed by the club. I hasten to add I have not listened to the home game commentarys as I am in attendance but I understand he still does those. |

We've lost our best players for cheap. We had a few injuries early on in the season and our confidence is now shot. We've got enough to stay up but need to turn it round quick.

I really think Ellis papered over the cracks last season and now they have appeared bigger and wider. totally agree but would push it further than that because I think Bodin did the same. Two players who owe their big moves in large part to DC? Then after those big moves, for which we accepted far less than their worth, DC was in my opinion not backed to adequately replace them. |

Not arguing against that just that we have been lucky enough to have exceptional performances from individuals which has covered cracks in the rest of the squad. Not sure what your point is but it would be unlikely for any league 2 manager to receive 100% of transfer revenue. |

I would personally persevere with Jakubiak. Think he has the most quality out of our strikers and got a bit isolated today. His build reminds me of Ellis.

Doesn’t matter who we play up front no fooker gets fed up there. Absolute embarrassment today shower, of sh1t, we offer zilch going forwards and the team is currently half full of gutless sh1thouses. Thank god for Bonham in goal, but unfortunately for us he is papering over the cracks. If he wasn’t in goal we would have been on the end of bigger defeats the last few games. Squad is the worst I have seen seen for ages, conference team was miles better. Roll on January or start raiding the free agents....just do something fer feck sake, as doing naff all isn’t getting us anything currently. |

Then after those big moves, for which we accepted far less than their worth, DC was in my opinion not backed to adequately replace them. He wasted circa £300k on the worst so called striker I've seen play for Rovers. Plus £200k on Stefan Payne.....Who isn't much better. I will always stick up for DC but don't think you can say he hasn't been backed. He's just spent it on dross. You can't argue with his ability to bring in frees, Taylor, Bodin, The Beard to name a few But spending money he's failed miserably imo |

Not sure what your point is but it would be unlikely for any league 2 manager to receive 100% of transfer revenue. If you sell your house for £450,000 and it’s worth £1,000,000 is it reasonable to expect you to get an equivalent standard of house for £200,000? I accept your point about a league 1 manager not being likely to receive 100%. Three times in a row, we have let our prize asset go for miles under their worth to us. How can we fairly expect DC to keep pushing us forward? At the very least he deserves more time. |

As a club both on and off the pitch we are shambolic and lack strong leadership.Followed the Gas longer than most.Feel very let down by the current staff,players and board. |

Mildenhall
Leaditter/Lockyer
Parkes
Mcchrystal
Brown
Lines
Mansell
Sinclair
Monkhouse
Ellis
Taylor
That team would take this lot to the cleaners in my opinion. As would the side that won promotion from League Two. We have gone backwards in the last 6 - 12 months and unless we scramble enough points together between now and May we are in serious trouble.

The most worrying thing for me is that with all his tinkering DC must have tried most combinations of players/formations and nothing seems to be clicking yet.
I just hope that we aren't too far adrift come January and even then there is no guarantee the right players will be brought in.
Worrying times.
