We all have user names on this forum, you seem to have some sort of obsession with putting actual names in the public domain. Very similar behaviour to a poster I encountered on Gas Guzzler. I think that it should be left to individuals if they wish to make their own name known on the forum - you are acting against the accepted etiquette which people expect when registering to post on here. Sorry Mum. Jesus. That's ok, Frank.

Yes, disrespecting our privacy is a big fecking joke isn't it! You're a piece of snivelling sh*t. Oooph get you! Plenty people use first names, why you singling me out? Also if your had an issue a PM would have sufficed. One of the MODS had the decency to contact me that way, no issue. Why the public castration, and why, may I add does the biggest WUM in the history of forums deserve the baby sitting treatment? Honestly this place lately.

Just listened to Barton’s post-match interview - the man is clearly delusional. To say that there wasn’t a lot in that game, and also keep banging on about getting into the promotion spots? F**king hell mate - wake up and smell the coffee for gods’ sake! That’s it for me - there is absolutely no way he will even start to turn this around until he takes a long honest look at what he’s doing to our club; and I think he is clearly incapable of that kind of reflection. Best get him gone now before it’s too late to salvage something. My good friend i feel your pain with this man ! I'm taking a longer view on this appointment in that he was given a mandate to completely rebuild our club from the inside out and he has started to do that. i never believed we are going to be a promotion team this year just because all the personnel had been changed. Look how long it took Man City to get into their current position and had unlimited funds to do it !. i fully expected us to struggle this season and that is proving so. I'm prepared to give him more time if i can progress on and off the field and yes we got hammered yesterday but i can start to see the makings of a pattern of play and maybe a way out of our poor league position. At this stage i would take not being relegated as a successful season !

We always go for an unemployed manager to keep costs down !. they are unemployed for a reason - they are rubbish ! How about going for a manager with a good track record in doing this to clubs ? A perfect example would be the opposition manager yesterday. Did a real good job at getting Portsmouth back on their feet and is doing the same to his current team Kenny Jacket would be a perfect fit for our club at the moment IMO

JB's record at Fleetwood was hardly rubbish.

Bloody love Kenny Jackett, if only for the fact it was him that tipped off Penrice about a young Nathan Ellington impressing at Walton & Hersham.

Orient fan in peace. Despite Barton having had plenty of time to organise his squad you're woefully short up front and this means that your defence is having to work harder than they should. Rovers get pretty gates for L2 so I would imagine that your budgets very competitive. Us O's fans know from bitter experience that a big budget spent badly can sink you at this level. The O's are well organised and everyone knows what their job is. Rovers under Barton are a shambles. It's difficult to escape the feeling that things are unravelling fast behind the scenes at Rovers. I fear that unless you get rid of Narton then you're in very serious trouble. I hope your season turns around but unless you get shot of Barton I don't think it will. Looking at the goals, the first was due to Anderton losing Smith, the second was a decent shot, the third due to a poor pass out of defence, not sure any of those were down to poor organisation rather than individual defensive errors. Unless JB can miracle up a striker there's not much he can do about Clarke and Nicholson now being out injured. That will also apply to any new incoming manager. He's already proved in the transfer window he cannot "miracle up a striker"

I wonder if JB has given up and expecting/hoping to get the boot before his trials. He seems to have no answer to the issues and mad a comment about not taking his kids to school and sharing his home with his family etc. He was using as a reason to demonstrate why he’s here but, equally, it could be a view into his mind as to what he is missing.
If he goes to trial and loses his job through gross misconduct I assume he gets nothing but he gets a payout if he goes before. I don’t know if this is the case and I’m not an HR expert but would make sense.
His interviews are becoming slightly bizarre and he seems detached from what’s going on, smirking as if he just can’t believe what is going on. Yet offering no insight to what our plan is and what he’s going to do to get us out of it. It just feels he is is connected and I can see the excuses when he goes that it is the club that is rotten not him.
I listened to the D3D4 podcast (183) and the guys in there were basically wetting themselves about JB and what he’s doing. They had sympathy for the fans and said the team should be a promotion team on paper but JB doesn’t know what he’s doing. If you get a chance listen from c40 mins onwards.
I want to give it time but I can’t see any green shoots and I think JB’s mind just isn’t on it anymore. I guess it’ll come down to Waels patience!

I just can’t see him turning this around.

Not everyone I hasten to add as I know some have been dead against from the start for differing reasons.. Despite all the words I just can’t see what is going to change. I lapped up the Garner plan, not the Tisdale one but the the Barton one. I think I’m a reasonably educated person who also trusts no one (!) but been absolutely mugged off over the last 3 years. Would just be good to get a bit of pride bac rather than being the laughing stock🙄

He's already proved in the transfer window he cannot "miracle up a striker" The thing is though you don't great strikers to score few goals in this league. Just look at Tom Nichols. Or maybe a better example the lad Theo Archibald who scored for Leyton Orient, signed on loan from the dizzy heights of league one, and still looked better than anything we have.
