A very anxious time.....again! Well, from his own comments, it certainly looks like TM is nearing the end. Which of us has any confidence that the owners will recruit a proper manager to take the team forward? Expecting the Cairney, Hanley, Duffy scenario soon. Maybe, TM is as well. I am so sick of the way this club is being run.

5 out of 20?

Dance me through the panic?

The truth is that Bowyer might have been a decent bloke, but he was very lucky to have got such a job in the first place. He simply never had the CV..

Agreed. A part of me would like the inevitable crisis to come sooner, rather than later. At least, then we can start building rather than this dying by a thousand cuts. All our current pain and discomfort is the "pointless" pain before the operation. At least, the post -op pain will be on the journey back to recovery.... There is no football point to the current Rovers. Too many players seem recruited for "investment" reasons, while there are huge gaps on the pitch... A slow, lingering death. FOV!!

Winter has been here for 8 years. It is football's equivalent of Narnia. No sign of Aslan either!

Poor man's Joe Nuttall...God, how depressing!

Character building for your children? My eldest saw Rovers win the title in his second season. Another long-suffering supporter advised me to inform my lad that we had missed out at the death...... and keep the truth from him for 20 years!

Only one "Simon Garners 194"!

Glad you don't work for the Parole Board haha. Learning from mistakes? Let's look at two early ones. 1 2012 Dismantling infrastructure/ board of directors, manned by people with experience and genuine football know-how..... 2019- Is the situation fit for purpose? 2 2012 Allowing introduction of new player purchase policy based on considerations, other than on- field requirements........2019 Ben Brereton?...Defenders are coming etc. I could go on, but reports of their learning from mistakes are...greatly exaggerated.

I'm a soldier not a monster lol

No ambition. No hope. No point...

What..instead of detention?

Should we be flattered?

I guess that was my point lol

Liverpool away ..under Bowyer?

Snow expected soon!

Someone told me that the Rovers scouting people never even ran the rule over Brereton i.e. he came by a "different" route. Anyone else heard that?

Good faith? Not quite. Before we get too sackcloth and ashes, he didn't always come to the site in good faith. See his own "Thanks for the love" thread, which was launched as a provocative and antagonistic dig at posters here. Sure, two or three posts on this thread were OTT, but only a few....and we do have to see the context. I agree with Philip that the underlying problem is the bitter divide in the fanbase. Simon has largely taken one side-the loyalist one. I happen to have taken the other side, although, significantly, not in a local newspaper column.

Re no win position etc: if the LT still is a newspaper, why does it have to report such comments without irony or critique?

Hardly, if at all...

Well, I thought the football was absolutely dire!

Seriously?

Not sure we ever actually had yellow taxis in the town lol
