All your posts seem to be anti Coughlan and about our players that are not getting picked. Your not Bennett’s dad are you ? Ha ha. No! Tbh Bennett is not my concern. It is more around the younger players trying to establish themselves rather than the youth players. He never says anything encouraging, just that he has to put them on the bench through desperation. I admit that I am very anti-Coughlan and will never be happy with him here. However, I would prefer that if can’t say something positive about the development players he should just keep his mouth shut. Fair enough I think He’s bringing the youth through and making good use of them here and there. Perhaps he does say encouraging things to them it’s hard to know what goes on behind closed doors unless your behind those doors.

I'm not going to pretend I've always liked Coughlan and I wanted him gone after the Coventry game but results don't lie. You wanted him sacked 3 games into the season after he turned things around in such dramatic fashion last year? Never an easy job being Bristol Rovers manager but judging by some of the comments I’ve seen on here Coughlan seems to have it harder than most.

In the medium term my gut feel is that we’d do better and be more united without him

A draw would be a very, very good result today. I’m not so sure where the goals will come today.

In the medium term my gut feel is that we’d do better and be more united without him Looking at the quality we’ve got compared to other teams which I’ve seen this season which is most of them I think we’re below average for league 1. I think Cogs has found a way to get that below average group of players to 5th in league 1. If he were to leave tomorrow I very much doubt another manager would come in and do a better job in terms of points / games than Coughlan has done. His tactics might be basic the football might not be easy on the eye but I don’t see players not trying or looking like they’re not united , in fact quite the opposite.

I don’t know whether it is his attempt at being funny but our manager is just down right disrespectful when speaking about players outside of the starting 11. He saps all good feeling I have about Bristol Rovers that I have at the moment. Can you ever remember us naming a younger or less experienced bench for a league game? And the most experienced of them has been ill all week!

We played 442 with four centre midfielders and it was clear within five minutes it wasn't working. Yet he stuck with it for 90 minutes and I'm not sure we had a shot on target. Happy to admit I was wrong.
