Never gonna happen. A few totally bullshit twitter accounts have sent the Leeds fans into a spin

SSN saying its guuna be Karl Robinson of MK Dons. Blimey, that's a terrible decision. Not saying Robinson isn't a decent manager, but wrong for their situation. In a weird way I can't help but feel like Steve Evans is, in fact, perfect for Leeds.

Those 2 need to get new agents. Blimey if they can only their clients on that blatantly inaccurate website they ain't earning their cash!
Our Matty's agent is doing a much better job! Much media coverage!

As much as I criticised his recent update I am under no illusion I do not know enough of him, or his role to vote in this poll.

Promotion as champions or runners up? Open top bus tour Promotion as playoff winners (there's a cup) I open top bus tour. Promotion in third place? I no open top bus tour as it looks a bit desperate. Them's the rules. Basically when w got to the play offs we finished 7th and 2nd. The open bus tour for a play off win is all about 'bringing the trophy home'. We celebrated our promotion in the best way possible, anything we do now will be underwhelming when compared!

Also, gonna say it now - if the Al-Qadi's hadn't taken over the club, I don't think we would have been top 3. Think that it definitely put a new found belief, desire and positive energy around the club that saw us make the final push. So sorry Nick.

Couldn't get past reading page one of this thread as it's clearly just going to be an argument.
However, it touches a nerve with me that he, and the SC, so massively failed to stop, or even voice the opinion of fans, whilst Nick Higgs took us to our lowest ever level, and now has a dig at our new owners who IMO have yet to make an error.

I must admit it's only a 1 hour furniture sales push

Hi all, I'll cut to the chase, the promotion special of GasCast is now online. gas-cast.co.uk/podcast/016-2015-2016-promotion-season-review/We would really appreciate it if you listened and hopefully you enjoy it! Audio quality is not as great as in the past due to technical issues, but it's a 50+ minute episode so hopefully that makes up for it.... Thanks! Harley

We always had gradual improvement under PT whatever your opinion of him as a manager. Having seen all the managers since mid 60s I always thought that PT was one of the better ones and you've only got to see the ones since to realise that he was better than most. Over his sacking, I always thought it was the defeat to Exeter in JPT that was the final straw from a board under fan pressure. But the next year was similar to the Charlton /Curbishly story in that you never knew how good he was until you saw the dross that replaced him and what happened to us! Now, good luck to him, a very good coach and I hope he has learnt from what he has seen and is now a better manager. But Cardiff, no interest to me it's all about DC, great manager and OUR manager. I think PT deserves more respect than some comments on here just because he's going back as a manager of another club. After all he was a manager for us in one of our 6 promotions and that alone deserves great respect IMO. Good luck to him but it's nothing to do with us now, just because he was our manager doesn't mean he's shouldn't manage anyone else. UTG! You say that, but in his final season we were on course for relegation when he left. And that's why he was sacked. The JPT was indeed probably the only reason he was hanging on for his job and the manner of that defeat summed us up that year. We had no bottle. I think the decision to sack PT was definitely correct - unfortunately we replaced him poorly. We'd have fallen apart with our without him though.

At the time he was my favourite Gas player and also the #1 fan favourite at the club. Clearly I'm pretty much alone with this, but whatever he did in his personal life doesn't change my view of him as a Bristol Rovers footballer. David Pipe Pipe Pipe! Hopefully we're moving on to even better times than mid-table League One like when Pipey played for us... UTG! Hmmm. I mean I agree with you, until the bit of 'whatever he did in his personal life doesn't change my view of him as a Bristol Rovers footballer'. He smashed a bottle around someones head and - i believe - gave them brain damage. That's not exactly the kind of thing you can just turn a blind eye too surely?

I'm not too concerned about when we start now. As the new board members have said, the longer we spend in the planning stages the better. We know we can get planning permission on that land, and I have absolutely faith that the Al-Qadi's wouldn't have bought us if they didn't know they could find the money to build the stadium. So hopefully whatever happens in the remaining planning stages, they get it perfect before we go ahead with the build!

Think he was let go. A shame really but we have Puddy and Mildy, and DC has made it clear he'll be after another.

If KMB wasn't such a massive arrogant twat he would be a league footballer already. I don't think DC will want to go near him.

Don't think we'll come back and in all honesty don't really want him. I'm happy with Leads who I think will continue to develop and is still very young. He jumped ship - he was perfectly entitled to do that and I wish him well - but I'd rather stick with the players that got us here... especially in right back as I don't believe that is anywhere near a priority for us.

There is no chance we'll go with one of the big suppliers. We need to keep costs low whilst also getting our very specific design made. Nike will rinse us for cash.
