[Archived] Paul Ince

[jim mk2]

A new man in today would have 10 weeks before the transfer window closed - surely that would be long enough?

Bolton had dumped Sammy Lee by this time last year and only escaped by the skin of their teeth.

The sooner the board act the better, but I ain't holding my breath.

[Bobby G]

I agree, people think there is so much time but we are pretty much at the halfway stage and on current form, there are about at least 6 teams in the league we have no chance of getting points off, leaving us with about a dozen or so matches where we can get our wins from within.

[Guest Kamy100]

I think that time has come for Ince to go but unfortunately from what I hear the Rovers hierarchy are committed to Ince for the long term. I really hope that this is not true as that'll mean that next year we'll be starting life in the Championship.

[broadsword]

He's got to go, he hasn't got a bloody clue.

What was the idea behind playing Mokoena and Andrews together? And then taking Benni off and putting Simpson on when we were a goal down?

As soon as they scored, that was it, game over. No chance of us scoring, and why the bloody hell did Pederson get 80 minutes? he's a total waste of bloody space, how long has it been since one of his corners cleared the first man. As long as he plays, we only have 10 on the pitch.

No tactics, no confidence, no attacking idea, no invention in midfield, a defence that leaks too many goals, a prize ar5e in charge assisted by a vast army of yes men that will cost a fortune to get shot of. It can't get any worse.

SACK HIM, SACK HIM NOW!!!!!!

If thats true, then we are as good as down and even if we are not, we will escape with our lives but barely and thats NOT what this season of transition was about! Transition would equate meaningless mid-table finish, not battling to survive, when you finish in the top ten in the last few seasons, and 7th last season.

[broadsword]

Who remembers Paul Ince and his little notebook with "Shoot" written in it (at West Ham).

Tactical genius.

[thenodrog]

And then taking Benni off and putting Simpson on when we were a goal down?

Nothing wrong with that it's standard practice to go one up front after a sending off.

Hey up! Twice in 10 mins......I'm finding myself defending PI again!

[broadsword]

Go with one up front when you're defending a lead maybe, but we had zero chance of scoring with just Roque up front.

What am I talking about? We'd have had zero chance of scoring with 12 men plus the Norwegian puff on the pitch.

If the fans begin to vent their anger Kamy, they will have no option.

[AggyBlue]

I have this horrible nagging feeling that JW is going to back Ince in the transfer window and he'll blow all our cash on dross.

[broadsword]

There's no way he's seeing in jan 1st as Blackburn boss, mark my words.

Is he still 8/1 to be the next to get the tin tack? I can't check with work's firewall. I bet he's come down to 4's or lower now.

[AndyC]

That is still a major issue, who do we replace him with?

Big Sam is too short term in my view as we will avoid relegation but would we progress?

We need someone with the vision to lead a group of players who on paper are quality:

Martin Jol is my favourite, I must say that I always liked the way he went about his business at Spurs and is doing a fantastic job in Germany, anyone know John Williams number?

lets have sensible suggestions eh

[yoda]

Just read this by Ince

"We played some good stuff against a very good Tottenham side at their ground and we silenced their crowd for most of the game.

"The effort put in was unbelievable - the performance was outstanding.

"I thought we were going to salvage something. Had the ball been in the right place we would have got a point."

Who is he trying to convince?

unbelievable effort and outstanding perfomances get points!

ball in the right place ffs, it was on the pitch for us to get it!

what a turkey!

[Atty]

The fans also have a part to play in getting rid of this clown, we can let our feelings be know at the Liverpool game what most fans feel about ince before and after the game. We really need to get this clown out of our club ASAP time to stand up as fans and show JW and the board. Read the LET website aswell all the comments on there match report from our fans are all calling for his head.

We are at the same point Bolton was with franny lee they sacked him at the right time and just got out of it we have to do the same.

Ince needs to be out by the Liverpool game or I can see alot of anger from the fans towards him and the board.

What choice do we have just to shut up and hope that the clown can save us and watch how he ruins all the hard work Hughes did.

Not for me the CHANT INCE OUT if he is still here by then will be sung at home to Liverpool.

[G Somerset Rover]

I'm sorry I've had enough. I was willing to give him a few more games to prove himself. But after yesterday's performance and his baffling comments AGAIN I want this idiot out of our club.

Hand on heart I don't know where our next win will come from with him in charge.

But then again if we keep up our "outstanding performances" then who knows right?

[LDRover]

I don't give a flying 'Donald' if the board are 'committed' to Ince in the long term, they'll have no choice but to listen to the fans and this will happen at the next home game.

The support will still be there during the game but there can be no doubt whatsoever that JW will know the feelings of those that supposedly matter the most after the game.

That's unless our 'outstanding' football suddenly reaps the results it has apparently deserved within that time.

[broadsword]

All it needed was for us to get hold of the ball twice and stick it in the net.

We would've deserved it, we were outstanding.

Of course if we do go down, Paul is the man to bring us straight back up. so don't worry.

[The Gull]

Anyone got the odds on him being the next to go?

These are usually a good indicator.

[gillibrand]

I think the " Clowns " are the people who protested against Big Sam, it was obvious what was going to happen, I just hope they are proud of themselves!

[ABBEY]

jw"were not in bottom 3!" ince "YET!!!!"

Please tell us what you think Bfs would bring to the club other than short term security (and thats only a maybe) is it possibly his "entertaining" long ball game, his ability to bring in ageing mercenries looking for that final pay packet, or would it be his amazing ability to keep us hovering just above the relegation zone season in and season out?......and you think we're clowns?

The problem may be that with thousands of scousers rejoicing in their victory and with few Rovers fans left in the stadium, our feelings may not be heard. I reckon that the Stoke game may be the next chance and that's some way off.

Hopefully he'll make us hard to beat.

[Mike Graham]

If we get stuffed by Liverpoo who fancies organising an after the match demonstration outside the Jack Walker, or we could give him a couple or so more games and leave it until after the Stoke game!!

Stoke will suit me better as I am going corporate for the liverpoo game (on a table with 9 scousers and me the only Blue) and therefore will have to be inside the ground drinking.

With little money he took Bolton from the Championship to four top eight finishes in a row (Hughes did not manage more than one in a row)...how is that "hovering just above the relegation zone season in and season out" and was there for a good 7 or 8 years...how is that "short term security"?

I did not say those who launched a Facebook campaign against him were clowns but if the cap fits...
