    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    On the Rotherham forum many seem amenable to that but the ITKs are claiming secret reasons that mean it’ll never happen.

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Surely at this point Rotherham can only be capable of re-appointing former managers - Paul Warne, your time is now.

    I doubt it, but the Gas do have a bitch of a run-in.

    Well the number of posters sticking on here despite the recent tech cockups has definitely tailed off, but let’s keep going for now. What with recent managerial shenanigans, we get denied Ainsworth’s return to Adams Park, which is a bit of a shame but hey ho. Still a vital game (as are they...

    Thurs 27th/Sat 29th March fixtures

    Yeah, seriously, wtf happened? For us it seems like Mike Dodds’ true colours are along the lines of a cagey lower league Southgate, trying to bore the opposition into submission. Occasionally the attacking players have some fun but we’re generally lacking in the incisive final ball, I think...

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Appleton gets the Shrews job. Not that convinced by that one myself, he did well at Oxford I guess, but less impressive elsewhere. I guess he’s got a free hit in terms of it being an unrealistic ask to keep them up, but it remains to be seen what he can bring to the table long term - still...

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    if Ainsworth hasnt changed house, he still lives somewhere in Berkshire I think, so that’s an hour less on his commute I guess (not sure about Dobson). Who knows what the real reasons were but I saw the open letter from the chairman saying that the Shrews takeover was still on, so that can be...

    Managerial Merry-Go-Round 2020/21

    Shrews fans speculating that this means their takeover (and pumping in more resources) isn’t happening. Ainsworth is certainly used to working under a demanding Yank sugar daddy (as he did with us) and I would back him to do well if he is given a chance to shape the squad the way he wants...

    Is it time for a 'Managerial Merry go round' thread?

    Ainsworth leaving Shrews to go to Gillingham apparently - speculation on the Shrews board is that this may be due to the takeover of the club not happening.

    Isn’t that all any fan can do though, enjoy the good times while they last? It’s not like we can influence the choice of ownership. Also it’s not like they didn’t pay their dues slumming it before the good times kicked in. I feel like Wrexham has a decent catchment area, and if they capture...

    could really do with Exeter doing us a favour but I can’t imagine we’ll get it. Brovers will be keen to bounce back v Mansfield from their worst performance since the last worst performance evvah… We face mediocrity masters Lincoln City (12th in home form, 13th in away form - smell the...

    Whilst I preferred it when Peterborough were wank and in danger of going down, I’ll let them off being ok if they’re beating Charlton, about time CAFC slipped up. Galling that Wxm are spawning their way through yet again, but Stockport at least seem to have had a few shots so hopefully there’s...

    Tues 18th/Sat 22nd March fixtures

    The Gas are a mere couple of wins away from bellyflopping onto the beach, but they do have some nailed-on defeats incoming vs the likes of Brum, Wxm and Bolton, so if they don’t show up for this one they need a right slap. Crawley are all but down, but you’d hope at least those that want to...

    Banter club. I think Cambridge still outdid you on that front though with the Harris/Bonner dream team though.

    Nonsense timing, another “too little, too late” sacking.

    Yeah, I’d never use either of those to look at football-related stuff, our FB group in particular is full of the most toxic, knee-jerk and ill-informed shite imaginable. I think at least people who post on actual forums (as opposed to FB) tend (not always) to be capable of stringing an actual...

    Really disappointed with the Rotherham fans on your forum, they all seemed really level-headed and free of red-tinted specs - I don't visit opposition forums with the expectation of objectivity, I visit to get riled up and think, "what the hell were they watching".

    Tues 18th/Sat 22nd March fixtures

    Oh, and our commentary was constantly being threatened with being drowned out by an f-bombing comedy Yorkshireman in the background. One of our squad players (Lubala) was on co-comms, and apparently ended up squaring up to the f-bomber in the latter stages, who was taking offence at Lubala...

    Ah…fatboy going ballistic at the officials at full time, how I’ve missed it. Massive let off when Rovrum hit the post, and there was an awkward moment when it looked like the ref wasn’t going to give an obvious handball against JCH. So overall far from convincing, but a much-needed 3 points...
