I'm struggling to think of a worse start to a rovers managers career? Not just the results but the performances have been shocking.

Clearly you think he is by starting the thread so why not add your thoughts first

Jesus wept...
It's been, what, four or five games? Give him a f**king chance, here's barely been here a few weeks for crying out loud. By all means say that in a few months if it remains this poor but not yet IMO.

As someone who never wanted him here in the first place, I'd say give him a decent chance before starting the witch hunt. And bear this in mind going forward, too. Maybe it's not always the best policy to insult our managers just coz we don't win a game.

Too early to say either way, so silly to discuss it. Lots of player's injured. No right back. JCH has not been fit and Smith has been injured. Who is going to score the goals?? He needs time.

You're right. Bring Lines in as player manager IMO

What I dont understand is the commentators tonight.
"Rome wasn't built in a day and all that, but you can see glimpses of what Ben Garner is trying to introduce"
Can we? From what I've seen our defence is making calamitous errors, our midfield is even more disconnected from the attack than before and the attack has got even worse.
I'm struggling to see any positives from Garner as manager so far tbh.

I want it to come good for Garner but tonight we looked like an academy side playing against an older and more experienced side.

No need for discussion. OP sums it up perfectly.

He talks a great game, Garner. So far, the words have not been backed by the performances on the pitch. HOWEVER, he's barely had any real time on the training ground to get his methods and intentions across, no less actually COACH the players so give him time to do that as well as bring in new faces/rid the deadwood.

This is an immediate-gratification society, sad really. Let’s be patient, I’m looking forward to Saturday, I enjoyed Sunday. If we lose the next six then I’ll have to revise my opinion, for now I’ll watch with interest.

Give him time. Tonight was an experiment in a competition that isn’t as important as the league and he got it wrong. At least we haven’t dropped any points because of it.
Worth remembering that we’ve still got same group of players that we had under Coughlan plus a few back from injuries and some promising additions.
We’ve not done well enough so far that shouldn’t be glossed over but it’s simply unfair to go all in on Garner when he’s still only presided over just three league games. Have some patience.

But that's just as much of a worry, Neil. He's barely had any time with the players and it's completely fallen apart. Immediately against Wimbledon the players didn't have the fight/passion/urgency they had against Peterborough or Plymouth. Garner said himself that he wouldn't rock the boat and would carry on what we're good at - so far I see literally the complete opposite of that
