[riverside returns]

SSn say Sam has been appointed now on 3 yr deal

[Tom]

ITS OFFICIAL SSN 3 YEARS DEAL

[sambo]

3 year deal

CONFIRMED

definitely Rovers boss, done deal

[gillibrand]

You won't persuade me.

Who cares as long as Rovers climb the premiership table, and when they do I'm sure you will come running to the games!

[Lathund]

Never liked him but I can't deny that he did an excellent job at Bolton, and I think he'll do a good job here as well. He certainly has my support.

[greggyk]

I'm happy with this...More than confident we'll be ok this season now

[Tom 1]

As an neutral, it's not an appointment I'd be happy with, he's a prick, but lets be honest options were limited and I'd put money on you staying up with him as manager.

[Mr. E]

NO!

FOR FFS NO !

This man does not give a **** about us and is here only for his own career. This is not our team anymore.

This is sickening.

[AussieinUk]

Welcome aboard you fat barsteward!

[bellamy11]

This man...is here only for his own career.

Well duh!

[CrazyIvan]

Same as with Ince, give the bloke a chance!

[john-rover]

NO!

FOR FFS NO !

This man does not give a **** about us and is here only for his own career. This is not our team anymore.

This is sickening.

thats just silly, Ince was far more for his own career then bfs could ever be....

[LeChuck]

Mr E...any manager we appoint would be here for their own career. That's how the world works, not just football. I worry for you sometimes.

Delighted with this appointment, let's hope it's not too late. One thing I think can be guaranteed - he won't want 'old-schoolers' like Mathias and Knox hanging around too long, or someone completely unqualified like Winterburn telling the defence what to do.

Souness was a Rovers man, even if he did dump us. BFS is Bolton, our nearest prem rivals, through and through.

Not even if Rovers are winning 10 nil and playing like arsenal at their best. Sorry but I love watching rovers but not that man.

[Mr. E]

Same as with Ince, give the bloke a chance!

If in 3 games we do not have 2 wins, I start chanting Fat Sam out.

People didn't give Ince time, I sure as heck hope they don't give BFS any more either.

[bob fleming]

Didn't they both end up at Newcastle?!

[LeftWinger]

I'm absolutely delighted! I'm not sure there is a better man for this!

Rick

[gillibrand]

Big Sam has got presence and will put his stamp on the team, totally opposite of the embarrassing no mark we have just thankfully got shut of!

[bob fleming]

People didn't give Ince time

Yes they did. Too much time in my opinion. What did you want another two or three loses on the bounce?

[iamarover]

Not even if Rovers are winning 10 nil and playing like arsenal at their best. Sorry but I love watching rovers but not that man.

I am assuming you have personal experience of meeting Sam and have a psychological scar running deep inside your soul as a result of that encounter. Nothing else can explain such an illogical response.

[gillibrand]

Methinks the lady doth protest too much!

[S15]

If only I could be bothered to look up some of the summer posts made on here.

Welcome and good luck Sam.

[MI ROVER]

Mr E - You are making yourself look a fool give up now pal

[revolutionrock!]

Very pleased.
