Having dealt with Waggott several times I did warn when he left that fans celebrating his departure should be careful what they wished for. He was a canny operator.

Sometimes you just have to let the train wreck happen on its own.

Napkin count has Middlesbrough with 9 injuries atm, including to key players like Brittain, McGree, Strelec. 

Maybe its the extra 4 that accounts for the 20 position gap on the league table.

WTF is VI still in employment ?

He is doing exactly what the regime wants him to do.

For the 100th time, football results are not a priority here.

Realistically I don't think he'll leave because he'll manage to scrape a win in the Sheffield Wednesday replay, keeping himself comfy in the job till the end of the season.

This is exactly what will happen, lose the next two fairly comfortably, then we'll beat Sheffield Wednesday and somehow get a point at Norwich and they won't stop banging on about it for ages.

Then we'll go another 10 or so without a win.

What's Tony Pulis doing nowadays?

Give it Lowey to the end of the season (did Suhail ever get to the bottom of if he’s still employed or not?)

Completely agree. Whenever I met him he struck me as an extremely knowledgeable football person.

Waggot was the public face of Rovers as a CEO should be but he was only half a CEO behind the scenes i'd wager.

He took the brunt of the stick whilst the others hid in the shadows and he did his best often to hide as well although maybe he was gagged who knows. This is the club who went to lengths to hire a director of communications and then stopped him from communicating !

So they finally get Waggot out the door as the fall guy, after finishing 7th, then embark on wrecking the stability at least his presence provided. 

The last advert for a new CEO read basically as a stadium manager even Nixon confirmed this so it's obvious who is running everything now so they should be held accountable for everything.

Starting Saturday.
