  1. Early Nov'19 we lost to Leeds and fell to 18th, 8 points behind sixth place. Now after a fantastic run we've moved to within 2 points of sixth place. The big question is can we continue to produce results that will get us into a playoff position. TM has come in for some criticism and I'm one who joined that debate but its a results game and he deserves credit for picking a winning team. May still be critics on his subs, sitting on a 1 goal lead but if we keep winning that's good enough for me. Looking at same time last year we were again 10th with a point better off with a better GD. Think PL is there for WBA and Leeds, two strong sides with owners who have invested wisely. PNE would have been well in the mix had they not suffered 4 consecutive defeats. If we had have won that day, plus the other "dropped point" games, "as it stands" league table below would have looked far better.

Dare I dream??
  2. Great result........results wise good form at moment. Sounds like Evans played exceptional well and credit Bennett for assist and winning free kick with second to go.
  3. Dack og - sounds like we had it coming. Can we hang on for a point.
  4. Wouldn't work sadly. Place is empty mid week, no game weekends and close season. If we don't get back to premiership soon place will close, believe me, and they'll have just the beer tent.
  5. Wrong of him to have a swipe at the fans. Its football what does he expect. Also he needs to look at the bigger picture. Bow out gracefully Tony.
  6. Think where we could have been with a good manager!
  7. He's a man under pressure but I didn't like the way he stormed down the tunnel. Players fell to the ground after a hard game but it was another hard game for supporters so he could at least show his appreciation to the faithful fans ?. Go Tony please. Well done Dack for giving his shirt to a fan in BBE.
  8. sat in car for twenty minutes waiting then missed it. Very very disappointing. We'll go nowhere with TM.
  9. Downing. ...... encouragement request from Graham to fans
  10. What a new manager can do! If they win it will drawn out any Rovers fans protest. Also watch for how quick and loud the music comes on. I'm being negative but who can blame me.
  11. After 9 years TH that's a mighty big if. But they wont. The owners are business people not football and I'm pretty much 100% sure there are people connected with the club who have advised/suggested that they reconnect (sorry I mean connect!) but its a business venture and they will not look further than that. Prove me wrong Venkys!
  12. Warnock quoted as saying "...….it is a shared belief that this is the right time for a new voice ……." Tony please note.
  13. Let's hope a new Rovers manager will come in and change negatives to positives.
  14. I'm aware one mentioned is a Burnley fan.
  15. What a nicely paid job Waggott has. He must be bored stiff driving round with obsoletely no responsibility. He's not stupid and can see what's happening as well as (most) we can. And as for the undercover man the whole set up is a complete joke. I'd be happy if Venkys, Waggott and Mowbray left as the only way we will become a happy, stable club is to start from scratch. Think I need to turn my pc off getting more wound up.
  16. Wrong thread but related. How many games have Venkys watched, including TV live or recorded?? Pathetic.
  17. It is a 6 pointer but if we win Mowbray will get another extension. Frustrated ?
  18. Was talking to someone last night who insisted Mowbray was a good manager who had stabilised the club. IMO results and lack of ideas don't lie. We are going backwards and time is also an issue. I'd rather Venkys go and we start all over again.
