  1. Assuming Gestede takes weeks if not longer to find another manager Johnson has a big job to do and could make a difference, and Scott Wharton back and playing well (and not getting injured again) will help, but the lack of quality and Championship experience will tell in the end. I thought it looked a relegation line-up back in August and nothing has changed since. We are going down
  2. We couldn't make it last night but it sounds like a rerun of the game at Hillsborough which was comfortably one of the worst I've seen. Wednesday (apart from one or two) have even lower quality players than us but the fact we couldn't put them away easily in both games tells its own story. Both Wednesday and Rovers with their current line-ups would be mid-table at best in League One
  3. Second worst team beats the worst team by a single goal but 3 precious points. It's going to be nip and tuck till the last game to avoid the drop
  4. Have to agree but the venerable Rev of this parish would drive him to the airport tomorrow.
  5. It'll be a jittery second half if it stays 1-0. Desperately need that 2nd goal to ease the nerves.
  6. They're awful all right but could easily have beaten us at Hillsborough - one of the worst games of football I've seen in 60 plus years of watching. The problem is we're not that much better than them - the league table doesn't lie
  7. 3 points??? Couldn't care less if we play 4-4-2 or 10-0-0 In a relegation battle nothing else matters, as the experts say
  8. Rovers were lucky to escape with a draw at Wednesday - how Bannnon missed that chance only he knows. I'm not optimistic we will win tonight. Big test for Damien Johnson
  9. Still had 2 wins in 13 matches before Southampton sacked him so he would be an upgrade on Ismael Seriously, who wants any of those contenders? Duds the lot of them
  10. Duffy’s a prickly character by some accounts. Left his club in Ireland after winning the championship after some sort of bust up. I don’t think he’s what we need right now and would his name be touted if he wasn’t an ex Rovers favourite? Eustace went to Derby about the same time last season and got them out of relegation trouble. We need a pragmatic hard headed manger like him
  11. We ain’t getting anyone Focus now is on manager’s job
  12. Correct Brilliant move by the club on deadline day to deflect from lack of signings
  13. Horrible appointment from day one - why they thought a serial failure would come good is beyond any common sense
  14. Mowbray for the rest of the season with bonus to save us from relegation Then start again in the summer
  15. He wants it, he’s asking for it There is no reason for them not to do it
  16. Well done. I’m sure the owners have taken note after reading that and will be leaving the club first thing Monday
  17. When the next boycott after the “success” of the last one?
  18. One win in 15? In the name of decency and shame, for heaven’s sake resign man.
  19. What took them so long?
  20. Simms doesn't make sense on any level - cost / wages / Rovers' current predicament to name just a few This is the danger of social media and AI - most of it is worthless slop for the masses. Musk and Zuckerberg win again Alf Thornton and proper journalists like him would be appalled
  21. 'Killer' Keeley was a dirty so-and-so - saw him stupidly get sent off at Fulham in a match in which Bobby Moore and George Best were playing. But he wasn't hard. Ken Knighton always struck me as "hard" - mess with him and he'd boot you over the touchline
  22. Wharton sent off on another bad day for Palace who appear to be in freefall. Are they going to do a Leicester and drop down the league in the relegation battle Hopefully
  23. Unlikely. Leonard needed 10 chances to score one
  24. It was in the past too, little boy
