Can you post a link to that interview? Just read the owners letter which confirms "Aaron Collins' departure was mutually agreed upon – both he and the club felt it was the right time to move on" WTF? Are you suggesting that any transfer isn’t “Mutually agreed upon”? Have you got a link to that interview? |

I'm not suggesting anything, I'll just leave it with the owners comments as they seem clear enough. |

Roady answer this for me. You said that the Manager had peanuts to spend in the January window but also you stated at least three quality players that the Manager wanted in the summer and one would definitely sign.
What makes you think that these owners are suddenly going to pay good money? Are these three players you mention willing to play for peanuts?
Where do you see good signs from this Manager that he can build a good side? Has he built one before?
You are talking rubbish- you cant say now that players will sign for next year when they dont know what division we are going to be in.

I've got not link, if you want to search for then it it'll be around somewhere he can't have given that many interviews when he departed, the owners now said more or less the same anyway i.e AC had decided it was time to move on. |

The thing that gets me is all went quiet for a while as far as fans were concerned then suddenly roadman and dustman are getting the information! Who’s feeding them this information?
I have had the pleasure of roadmans company but sorry something does not add up!
Are the new owners just a front for further investment as not much is known about them and sorry but I don’t think for one minute weal sold out to people with less money than him.

Roadman and G1981, who've both admitted to being on speaking terms with Wael in the past and the latter was also a bigger supporter of Wael, both now seem to be doing their best to discredit the new owners.
No doubt Roadman is being used by somebody as the kind of information he's posting doesn't get passed on to your average season ticket holder.
Perhaps if you join the dots together you'll get the answer?

Maybe that means the squad isn’t good enough? He’s got no recruitment department. Not really fair to judge his signings yet He was brought in to improve things not make them worse. Pirate you seem to know a lot about some sides of football, but seen naive when it comes to other sides. How many weeks has Taylor actually had to work with the players? Most weeks we have had a mid week game, so they wouldn't have been able to spend much time on the training pitch. The one time we didn't have a mid week game, we kept our only clean sheet on the Saturday. You can see the amount of injuries and games has caught up with players. Evans and Thomas look like they need a rest. We are missing loads of key players. Friend went off injured in the last game, Hunt the game before that. He's brought in one player on a permanent and he's been one of our best players since signing. He turned down better offers, because he wanted to develop under Taylor. Taylor might turn out to be a disaster. But it's unfair to put all of the blame at Taylor's door. We should comfortably stay up, when we get key players back. After Saturday we have no mid week game for a month, so Taylor can finally get some decent time on the training pitch. Then hopefully we can build for next season. |

Nothing naive here, perhaps like Taylor you should also look in the mirror. We know everything is always so wonderful in your little happy clappy Rovers bubble, but I live in the real one with his shocking style of football, his poor selections, substitutions, tactics, results and questionable signings (similar to the muppet he replaced). But, he does deserve time and I hope he gets the recruitment infrastructure any manager needs/deserves and gets the full backing of the owners. Time will tell on that and how well he does longer term. Fingers crossed. |

Ok. Nuff said. You made it up. I have looked on the Bristol Rovers YouTube channel and I cannot see a recent interview with him. Let alone one where he admits he has checked out. |

Time will tell on that and how well he does longer term. Fingers crossed. Since he took over, only twice, have we not had a mid week game. How can you get across your footballing principles, when you've not had chance to get your messages across? His Exeter team played some good football, living in Cornwall I know a lot of Exeter fans who go every week and we're gutted he left. I also know a lot of Plymouth fans, who were delighted he left. Some of those Plymouth fans wanted him, when Schuey got the job. You were against him, when he was first linked. Even though you wanted Garner 😂. I'm not saying everything is perfect. I'm just saying, you can't judge him yet. It's not been good enough so far, but we all know a lot of the players are not up to it. Even players like Wilson are not earning their money. He's average, but we paid him a decent wage and he turned down Plymouth. Why give a high two year deal to a 34 year old?? Friend and Hunt will be on high wages and barely play. Same with Ward. Missing Taylor, Finley, McCormick as well who will be on an okay wage. When that much of the wage budget, is playing or performing to the level you need, a club will struggle. After Saturday, we don't have a mid week game for a month. I want to see improvements then. Better shape, players that know what their role is etc. Hopefully less games will mean we lose less players as well. Losing Friend on Saturday and Hunt on Tuesday didn't help at all. Maybe as I know a lot of people that have followed Taylor, I am willing to give him more time. Who knows, although I said the same about Barton and DC. Every manager needs to get in some of their own players and needs a pre season with a squad. Questionable signings?? He's signed one player who I thought you rated?? |
