Being a Gashead I’m obviously well versed in reading between the lines. Interesting compared to the last letter Garner isn’t named. I wonder if this is an attempt not to unintentionally give him a vote of no confidence or if Wael is uncertain about him longer term being the man to run the ‘long term project’ www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/2020/june/letter-to-supporters-wael-al-qadi/On stadium matters it sounds as if things aren’t completely on hold, just held back a bit - wonder if we’re still proceeding on lining up architects etc and prep ready to hit go once normality starts to resume. Well we’re already 9 points off the play offs so perhaps he is unhappy with how it’s going who knows? The general feeling on here seems to be that Garner is a long term plan and he’ll be around for a long time regardless of how we’re doing but I wouldn’t bet on that. Bump

I did think it was odd at the time that Wael didn’t mention Garner at all in his open letter. Only speculating but perhaps the decision to part ways has been brewing for a while.

. As stated previously, our strategy is to look to bring in young players that we can develop, as well as playing an attractive style of football. Suffice to say, it’s early days, in a long term project. Great read and I love this bit, l et’s all get on board and stop Garner bashingWhen was that letter written?

I think when that letter from Wael was written, he had already given BG an ultimatum.
You could see in BG's post match interview straight after the game that he knew he was going to get the boot, he was close to tears.

And having a go/ shouting at the players and referee towards the end of the first half? Very unusual Referee wasn't brilliant. He should have booked more of their players.

That’s how I read it- I said at the time that it was circumspect that Wael did not try to bullshit the fans and you would think, if he was happy with the long term project ide that he would have been a bit more supportive of Garner at the very least and appeal to the fans for patience. The thing for Garner to realise is the old adage “if they did it with you they’ll do it to you” and it sounds like he was keeping in touch with Wael during Coughlan’s reign particularly when crowds started dropping. So he can’t be surprised if Wael’s wording in the letter and the sudden firing right after the game is indicative of some wheels that have been in motion for a while.
