The irony of them never getting their finger out and putting them on sale early… the year they finally do the club torpedos itself even more viscously than normal the very week they go on sale. Might as well as have waited till June like usual and gone for the standard playbook of getting Nixon to pretend The Warchest was about to be opened.

I’ve no idea, I’m a fan, not Head of Football Operations.

I’m taking about what we would do. Of course he will be here, he’s contracted till 2028, so the owners obviously have no issue with League 1.

How about not scouting players for him, we instead shake hands in May and move on. It’s been a mistake, why compound it?

It’s 2025, ‘protest’ doesn’t need to mean lads with bedsheets. Friday morning was the best form of protest we’ve seen in a long, long time. It’s the multi-media age, so more of that please!

Should he get next season, or would it be best all round if we went our separate ways in May?

It’s because unlike pretty much every other professional football club, this is a club owned/run by individuals that have no issue with relegation, indeed make conscious decisions to make it more likely.

Helps drives traffic (and now the only revenue) to the site - I.e. folk on here posting links going ‘look at these idiots!’ The LT would want even more of them, if anything.

Difficult for who? The owners? They couldn’t give a fuck.

Why won’t he be here this time next season?

I would have lumped Facebook in with the LT comments at one point… not anymore, that constituency has turned, and quickly.

Should Ismael have been appointed?

Chadster accusing someone else of avoiding the question 😅

Arrogant twat too. 1,000+ travel down to Portsmouth and straight down the tunnel. Take it Swaghail will be having a word Monday? (Ha!) Rudderless organisation with no standards or will to win. Would be unacceptable at any other professional football club.

If you supported a normal club but they happened to make a terrible managerial appointment, you’d be fuming with the owner/board, but you’d know that sooner rather than later he’d be out the door, hopefully before they could do too much damage. Here, it’s the helplessness of knowing 2028, probably does mean 2028 as he oversees our League 2 campaign…

Wait, so it’s not ‘too late’ for that lot like ‘umble Longers was trying to make out the other week?

Think as part of the new TV deal they can show goal clips for 3pm games (not live matches still).

Good job we got to 50 points quick, right scrap down there.

Views on Glen’s campaign, @Mashed Potatoes?

Bank Holiday afternoon (Good Friday) game or a Tuesday night for kid a quid tickets, hmmm, wonder what the Brains Trust chose…

1000+ down there today despite everything #nobodywouldeverbuyus

Very small number of trolls and plants post in there but they have an oversized influence due to it still being a main source of Rovers news… the regime must love it/coordinate it.

We’ll see if Gestede is fair game with what the wider fanbase thinks at matches. If he’s on banners/part of chants too, then great. If folk are scratching their heads, then it was a misstep and a distraction from the ultimate cause.

Obviously my point is being missed here. To be clear, I was massively against his appointment from day one (unlike a fair few on here), a ridiculous appointment, he’s out of his depth and shouldn’t be here - another symptom of the disease that is this ownership. However, I accept that much of the fanbase don’t get in the weeds like we do, they won’t understand why you are going after ‘football’ people too - we need to bring as much of those fans along with us. Division is what the regime want and have utilised against us from day 1. (But I’ll leave it here as I’ll keep repeating myself every time someone else goes ‘well, feck him, he’s fair game’, ‘he’s up Swag’s arse’ etc).
