The Coasters - Riot In Cell Block Number 9

I don’t know to be honest. Do you hang on and wait for the first Premier League job to become vacant ? He won’t be stuck for money to pay the mortgage ! That’s for sure.

In todays “ Gossip “ it’s suggested the Leicester are looking at Potter to take over as their next manager.

We haven’t got a playing style that I recognise. The Jansen/Duff/Dunn promotion team had style.

And they’ll still be looking to strengthen that squad in the summer. Who did we buy when we won it ? That kid from West Ham who’s name I’ve alteady forgotten !

It’d be Stoke City all over again. Jones wants players who are prepared to graft 120% . We don’t have anything like enough players who fit that bill. They’d just play to get him sacked asap same as the under achievers at Stoke. Look elsewhere. To be honest I think the manager who could have real success at Ewood doesn’t exist. The task is too great.

Great touch and vision.Like all top players he knows exactly what he’s going to do with the ball before it actually arrives.

Not for me matey. I think he’s had his day.

One of the more obvious replacements just went to QPR.

I though I read somewhere that they asked a fan about signing Rhodes !

If it’s not Feyenoord it’ll be somewhere else. I don’t think the guy is in it at Rovers for the long run. Anywhere else the board would already have feelers out for the next guy. With the Chicken Chokers it’s “ next season is miles off, chill out, we’ll get around to it one day. When’s the cricket starting ? “.

I’d never get that desperate.

We’re the wrong sort of club for Jones. We’re similar to Stoke and to an extent Southampton where he failed. Too many players/employees at the clubs on Easy Street. Jones works better with hungry players who actually want to win things.

None of the championship teams I’ve seen this season appear to carry passengers or luxury players. Apart from Rovers of course.

Unfortunately yes. I broke my right leg twice within 9 months and it was in plaster for a long while. My right knee was a bit problematical after that. Over the years it’s just got worse. I’ve got an appointment for injections in it next month when we get back from Spain. Let’s see how that goes.

Is Bennett still catching at Shrewsbury Town ? He fit right in at Sunderland.

He wasn’t the quickest but he had a good change of pace. He could slow down and stop opponents then still go by them even with his lack of real pace. Jack Grealish is the same. Dack was a natural street footballer, there aren’t many around in the era of players being coached from a young age. I used to watch some Rovers players and think “ bloody hell, I could have done better than that “. I never thought that about Dack, he could do things I could never do, way beyond my skill set even on a my good days.

Great stuff. He had what you can’t teach. Look what good positions he takes up and how he’s always the first to react. Never panics, lets the defenders do that. Plus he had the technique for every occasion. Right foot, left foot, headers, side foot, toe pokes, blasters he had them all. Up there with Tony Field for me.

All three promoted teams stayed up.

On the other hand he pulled off saves that only an international class keeper could make. Even the dogs in the street could see he was a top class keeper in the making. Brentford could anyway.

Yes they do - but they seemed to have done ok without it.

They rely massively on their pressing game. I can’t see how he’d fit in to that.

Best way to be. Pointless getting into slanging matches with the ref. Pushing and shoving other players ? Why ? What’s that all about ? Just nail them them the next chance you get.
