[Archived] Paul Ince Gone

[Mr Creosote]

Possibly.............. But I can't imagine anybody would ever make the same mistake about you.

btw I don't mind you continually stalking me all that much creosote. I can almost take it as flattery..... unless as I strongly suspect you have a hard on whilst you do it!

Not at all surprised you'd think that. You are one strange geezer.

[MCMC1875]

Is it true that defeat by Stoke, a seventh straight defeat, would have been Rovers' worst run ever (IN 134 YEARS!!!)?

[philipl]

It would have equalled a run in 1965/6 if I remember correctly.

Maybe he is lonely theno

[tony gale's mic]

Job opened up at Forest - he should apply...

[ABBEY]

who? creosote?

[The Prof.]

Hugely alarming that John Williams seemed to have a say in who plays. RSC is only important to Rovers as long as he's fit and scoring - and for wearing that stupid Santa hat on the big screen half time show!

Bet he doesn't have a say now!

[cn_barlow]

I am suprised that Ince seems to have fallen off the face of th Earth. Pity he couldn't be this quiet when he was managing us!

[dingles staying down 4ever]

Suspect he has probably gone away for Christmas. After settlement is agreed I expect an exclusive interview coming from Mr. Lewis in the New Year.

[Bobby G]

Cant believe he left us in such a bad state...

Heard 2 stories about him today. he used to throw his weight around at training and on one occasion left his foot in against Pedersen and could have seriously injured him. Remind you of anyone? Secondly he picked up a bowl of cereal while Nelsen was eating it and threw it away! Before the usual crap about my Mum has a pet budgie and its friendly with the cat of Nelsen's third cousin the source for this story is impeccable.

No wonder the spirit has improved in the club ! At least the players only have to dodge Sam's gum,they don't get their breakfast chucked away!

[roversmum]

Apparently used to turn in late, and often bring his kids in and sit in his office chatting - a rumour heard before substantiated. What was he thinking? Thank goodness he is gone.

[John]

In a Times interview which was at Brockhall, the reporter mentioned that Inces kids were shouting at their Dad whilst he was being asked questions.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

I wonder how much Ince walked away with in his back pocket for literally bringing our club to its knees and the brink of oblivion?

[Majiball]

Don't forget the rest of them as well?

Rewarded for failure in full, football is strange at times.

Funny how those people who were insisting that we shouldn't listen to any rumours and blindly back the manager are now conspicuous by their absence in this thread.

That heads in the sand attitude may well have kept Paul Ince in a job 3/4 games longer than it should have, and may end up relegating us.

so what we thought made a difference,the only person who matters was the man who appionted him

[T4E]

If what we think doesn't matter why have you had such a chip on your shoulder about the way the fans treated Ince?

Hmm, you can't have it both ways T4E. Either we have an effect on the board from here (something I seriously doubt) or we don't. As for the fans keeping any manager in a job, I've never known that happen yet.

You can write 'I was right all along and everybody should have listened to me...' as much as you like but posting that we as fans, who do nothing but support our club, have had a head in the sands attitude that might end up relegating us is plainly ridiculous and makes your argument irrelevant. It's about as relevant as people posting that the lack of support on here is the reason Ince failed.

[T4E]

I'm not really sure what your point is there. Are you telling me we do have an input, or we dont? I'm not sure what makes you think I "want it both ways" - I have no doubt the fans opinions have an impact on the club.

The simple fact is some people (and you were most certainly one of them) went to great lengths in an attempt to dismiss the many many rumours coming out of the club, just because no one officially connected with the club were making the claims in public. That was never going to happen, but it doesn't mean they should be discounted out of hand. If you don't think our opinion made any difference on these matters, why post so incessantly dismissing them at the time?

Tve i was one of the people supporting ince and i admit now that i was wrong however in the summer i wanted allardyce yet most people planned protests if he got the job maybe thats why we might end up relegated

[broadsword]

It's gone now

My point is clear. I don't think what we write on here has any impact on the board. You seem to think there is now but that the lack of support for the previous manager on here had no impact.

Did I not say that all rumours and statements should be taken with a pinch of salt? I'm not getting into this because it's fruitless and you're picking a fight where there isn't one.

Ince was sh|t. He's gone. Move on.

I'll move on once our Premier League future is secure and the stench of Paul Ince no longer lingers. Unfortunately there's a fairly good chance that will never happen.

You desperately defended Ince for months, now that it's proven he was useless you're nowhere to be seen.

Most ludicrous post of the year.

A few internet posters who kept an open mind because they prefer to base their views on facts rather than gossip will be the reason we got relegated?

Using your warped logic, it could be argued that those who KNEW and did nothing tangible about it are far more to blame. What did you do about the gossip other than bleat on here? Did you go and see JW to pass on your concerns? Picket Brockhall? Thought not.

But, back to the real world, do you not think the Chairman, who has been in the job 12 years, knows everyone in the place and had just appointed a novice, should have had his ear to the ground to check on the progress of his key employee? Or are you suggesting he should sit in his office and read internet sites in order to appraise his staff?
