i think they are in for a rude awakening, as there seems to be a groundswell here, as even some of the most loyal season ticket holders, are now, asking questions.

It's a great idea and I hope this is announced, as I am sure this will make an impact on those destroying the club.

Hi didn't really make the grade at Rovers, hence you not remembering him. I recall him, but had to search to get the info below, which I hope you find useful. Played the odd game as a stand in mainly. As a youngster Glenn represented Wigan schools at both football and rugby league and he joined the town's football club, Wigan Athletic, when he left school.[3] His Football League debut arrived as a 17-year–old substitute against Port Vale on 6 September 1980, in place of his future Chester City team-mate Peter Houghton.[3] During his time at Wigan, he had a one-month trial with Chelsea in November 1982, during which time he played four times for their reserve side. The next three years produced more than 70 league appearances before he moved to Blackburn Rovers on a free transfer in August 1983.[3] After failing to establish himself as a regular in the Blackburn side, Glenn rejected the offer of a new contract in the summer of 1985 and joined Fourth Division side Chester City.[3] He played his first game for the club in a 1–1 draw with Halifax Town on 17 August 1985, alongside fellow debutants Wakeley Gage, Milton Graham and Lee Harley, in Harry McNally's first game as Chester manager.[4] Glenn helped Chester win promotion in his first season at the club, scoring his only goal in a 3–2 win at Colchester United late in the season.[3]

This is another defeat, I think, which will probably ruin my 60th birthday celebrations. I will be watching form Spain on Rovers TV so hope I can raise a glass at the end to salute a much needed victory, but I do have my doubts.

Interesting comments by the Watford fans. Lets hope he has improved since last March, as we have a few centenary season tickets, to offload. An exciting appointment like this with a vow to play possession based entertaining football, should mean they fly off the shelves.

That’s like Casanova turning gay.

Allez Les bleus!!!

He can hardly deny it, so in reality it isn't an excuse in the first place, just a convenient way of fobbing the fans off.

I am totally playing devil's advocate here, but if the same rules apply for money we receive for transfers out, then we can do this at £1m per annum, spread over 4 years. Problem Solved. 🙂

Agreed and if the club are asked about a budget, they usually hide behind, not wanting to show their hand. Given the last few windows and the lack of funds coming in from the owners, I can't see how, we can possibly be signing the number and quality required.

What's your opinion of what this will cost and how much do you think will be available form either self- Generated funds ( Wharton sell on clause) and money from the owners?

I think offers have been made to tidy the place up and those offers were declined. I know of a local glazier, who had to threaten the club, after carrying out some work and not being paid. A fan of the club too, so it goes to show, what a shoestring budget we have.

I think most people can see the way this is heading, as they could under Coyle. The decision makers were warned by many fans that appointing Coyle, would end in disaster and despite the calls to terminate him, fairly early on, it was thought by some, that he should be given a chance and had he been axed, even 3 weeks sooner that what he was, then maybe, we would have stayed up. The same is happening all over again and we can be pretty sure that a poor end to this season and a poor start to next, will be ignored, until it is too late.

That's exactly what I said on Twitter. If anything the state of the weeds, the ground and the wall, could have more impact than the banner, in terms of shaming the people who are supposed to be looking after their baby. For owners, who never refuse to sign a cheque, can it be requested that they send one to clean the filth at the ground up.

The worry is, he might carry on learning and he will know an awful lot, about losing.

As we know, there were rumours in here about the previous manager being unhappy and looking to move and that turned out to be true. Sad as it sounds, hopefully this is true too, as it can’t be brushed off that everything is good at the club, if it turns out to be true.

Or he needs to be closer to the channel tunnel and a train ride home.

Deaf, but I see what you did there.

Can he not write another letter to the fans? Big mistake that one and the words in there are looking sillier by the day.

I will gladly kick him in the bollocks if he did. I thought he was a scam bag before, but if this is true, he needs chasing straight out of the club. Enough, is enough

It would not surprise me. He and several others know the are being found out. Fans care about the club and can see how rotten it is and how many fraudsters there are making decisions right now, From the owners, to the chancers making the decisions including the one picking and supposedly motivating them team, not one has any passion or respect. These people are muck on the bottom of our shoes and arguing with fans, who pay their money and love the club, says it all, Breaking point has been reached and there is no return now for all of these scum bags. Filth of the highest order has infiltrated our once proud club.

You called my team VERY unbalanced in the other thread, but bar one, have the same 10 outfield players.

Yes

I bet he starts Forshaw.

You trust the people running the club a lot more than I do. If they have done it in the past, I’m sure they would do it again and it seems to me, that keeping the club as a self funding operation, is more important than success on the pitch. My line up yesterday, would have been. Toth Brittain. Hyam. Carter. Ribeiro Jrc. Travis. Tronstad. Buckley Dennis Gueye. Have a listen to the Bennett podcast and see if you still trust the decision makers as much as you currently seem to.
