No tbh three points are what’s needed. I’ll be honest I can’t stand keepers doing that, it’s time they were booked for their time wasting and sent off, after the second time of doing it. Game after game the drink break happens from a goalkeeper being “injured” Let’s also not forget Taylor got booked today, not setting the best example to his players like the last fool. He gets complained at for showing no passion and when he does he gets complained at. This place has amazing double standards at times. He should be setting an example not joining in with the booking fest. |

He wants to win, I can take losing it at times, for me this was a plus yesterday seeing this from him. Been some good debate on here, if people see yesterday as a potential change going forward and these tactics being the new, new, I happy to see if this is the case in the next few games. The fixtures are now kind to the manager and us, two cup games, two good home games and no forum excuses about them being big clubs like Rotherham low down, them being top 6, two good old fashioned League One games against also rans like us. |

First away game of the season. Really enjoyed it which is surprising for a 1-0 loss with a red. Hope we can get some strikers back soon but lots of promise there. Players showing passion and commitment always gets the backing of the gas fans. Great to see at the end. (In case it didn’t come across on tv). Taylor (one slip aside) back to his best. Mola is so consistently good and Hutch showing signs of what he can do. Need his set pieces! Most interesting thing for me was see Conteh in the last 20 showing another side to his game with forward runs. Much more than just a break up play man it would seem. Promising. Hahaha sabbatical over, its been a hard watch recently, onwards and upwards. |

Agreed Tbone, but that must be instructions, drives me insane with rage. Any manager wanting to win a game would be going mad at time wasting giving his chance to score a goal, he was told this. Rotherham away at the start of the season, they had 20 shots at goal against our 5, they had 5 corners against our 0 zero. One minute we have played the top 6, then someone says we’ve played big clubs like Rotherham and Posh. For every game there is an excuse, it was we’ve won 3 in 4 Tuesday night, now Reading are big club but in turmoil and transfer embargos! We beat Burton away who are on 4 points, it was so bad handbrake tactics first half that a fan went to the dugout to tell him and he changed it at half time. He was forced to bring on Forde and Ward in the 50th minute to get a goal. I’m convinced we’d have still lost or drawn today 0-0 without Shaq going off, no way would he have allowed us to go gung ho at the end. Criticising the manager/goalkeeper for playing for a draw when down ton10 men away to a team with the best home record is the league is ridiculous. |

If you take this season though for example. We have only played 1 side below us away, and beat them (Burton). So we've not had easy away games. We had over £1.5 million transfer fees on the pitch today, the owner said Premiership and Championship was the aim. Reading as a club are in turmoil, when are we going to stop the excuses and just do an Oxford, Stevenage, Lincoln, Mansfield and be a challenging side or fan owned Exeter? This manager is a defender manager and he has to change. Half of those transfer fees came off injured. I would say Reading doing as well as they are is more of a reflection on what a great job Ruben Selles is doing there. |

I’d fine Forde 8 weeks wages for that, he’s a proper bad apple as well around the changing room. That’s what happens when owners sign players. I’ve been anti MT but I wouldn’t want to manage that idiot, that was basically like any of us in the office throwing the phone across it or turning over your table. Suggest you stop your slanderous comments. |

He’s looked one of the most determined players to me and performed well when he’s had his chance.
Yesterday was a moment of madness to do that when on a yellow but we do see players do these things all the time it’s just so frustrating when it’s one of our players.

Suggest you stop your slanderous comments. I suggest you stop telling me what I can and can’t post pal. Slanderous is false allegations, I am told this is true what I have said. Ironically Forde was racially abused yesterday which is disgraceful and wrong but it may appear to be from a Reading fan from Wokingham, he is not a member of any Bristol Rovers groups. Is it Bristol Rovers Football Club we have idiots like this in society? But Forde has taken it upon himself now to make the club responsible and deleted all his posts and references to us on social media?! |

I'll make a comment if I want but I don't spread malicious rumours. Please slip the Pal nonsense while you are at it. It's you who said the lad was a bad apple in the changing room just because someone told you that or so you claim. You just passrd on unpleasant rumours and tried to turn people against the lad. |

So what have we learnt from this thread.
Forde is a nightmare employee who throws his weight around in the changing rooms
MT only changed the game by going for it after a fan made him do it following approaching him in the dug out.
Hmmmmmmm…………….

Again pal, you comment and if I want to call you pal I will which isn’t rude or offensive. I stand by what I said and I think him taking racial abuse out on his employer is wrong as well, why delete everything associated to Bristol Rovers? It’s ill advised, reactionary and childish. I will and would question his attitude on this, right in line with what you said upset you so much. |

I'll ask again - in who's opinion is Forde a bad apple at the club or is this hush, hush in the know stuff?

I was told by someone who informs me of going’s on at Rovers, I’ve been proven right on a lot of stuff. He was signed by the owners son, not Taylor or Friend. Forde isn’t really happy here, he’s sulking and says he should be in the team, his interview this week he openly signed to start games, surely this is the aim for all players?……….then he is racially abused which is terrible but he has also decided to blame his employer as well deleting all reference to Bristol Rovers on his SM, he’s deleted it! |

Good question MrGasman, I think Roadman has it in for the lad with the calling him out as a bad apple, calling for 8 weeks wages in fines and saying he's disrespectful to the club just cus he's deleted some Instagram posts and suggesting that means he's blaming the club. What a load of divisive nonsense from Roadman. The lad needs our support not a character assignation from some poster who has probably never met the lad. |

Why does deleting some posts means he is blaming the club for the racial abuse. You seem too happy to judge people on rumours and then try to convince us he's a bad lot. Give it a break Roadman. |

MT clearly suggested he wanted to sign SF earlier in the summer but he was out of our price and he was surprised when we eventually were able to sign him on the TD day, there's no suggestions the VP just signed SF with no input from MT as you seem to be implying. Personally I'd sooner hear a player isn't happy sat on the bench than one like LM who seems content to spend most of the season sat on the bench. |
