As takes go, this is certainly a take. Wow! 

"I take everything on social media with a pinch of salt"

But we should take everything we hear on your podcast seriously, seeing as you deal in facts.

"I know this is gonna be controversial and piss a lot of people off"

Yeah, so it will get a lot of interaction on social media and drum up some interest in your podcast.

Right. Nice try.

Has Steve Waggott sent him a book token in the post for that endorsement? Laughable.

Or different opinion to yours and each view point should be respect even if you dont agree 

A difference in opinion is me and you disagreeing on whether or not Travis had a good game at the weekend.

This spunk trumpet is living in an alternate reality.

sounds like a brainwashed idiot to me,thats putting it kindly

I'm not saying all non - UK Rovers fans can be tarred with the same brush, but a lot of the stuff this guy posts indicates how detached from the reality of the situation he is.

One visit to the stadium on  matchday would provide a hard dose of reality.

He simply doesn't get it.

Even a few years ago so many folk trotted out "nobody could do what Mowbray does at this club".

12 months after him leaving we had our best league finish and cup run since relegation.

For me, it all comes back to that league one relegation followed by Bury being kicked out of the league. It spooked a huge portion of our fanbase into believing things can never be better, and to be grateful we still have a club.

I think what has happened over the past 15 years, is we have seen numerous terrible appointments in varying positions at the club, so some fans are terrified about who might replace whoever leaves.

Don't like Waggott, well, careful what you wish for because Gestede will be next in line

Not a fan of Ismael, how does Rooney suit you?

Its hardly a surprise that these rumours surface as discontent amongst the wider fanbase grows

This would not be the case if we were a well ran club.  Ether consciously or subconsciously, people know that Venkys (or their subordinates) are always a coin flip away from making a truly terrible appointment (Kean/Coyle etc), so prefer to stick rather than twist

The Bury comparison has always been stupid but it's classic fear factor tactics that the masses swallow, the kind UK govts have used on a daily basis to push their agendas.

Bury have a history but modern times have always been a tiny club who belong in the lower reaches on the football league, no disrespect just facts.

Every other club of our size survives and will come again, Coventry, Plymouth, Pompey, Charlton, Luton, Bolton etc the list is long although of course there are the odd exceptions like Swindon and Oldham.

But we always get told 'Bury' 🤨   ... for maximum effect obviously.

Far more likely under this ownership and pair of gravy train riders is a Bolton or Charlton scenario in the next 5 years and if that's the case i'd rather do it without the people who have caused it.

"get behind the lads FFS" means ignore whats going on off the pitch.  

However  the performance of those employees who aren't actually playing directly affects what happens on the pitch, otherwise what's the point of them?

That includes the owners.

Only a few years ago the favourite 'go to' clubs for the naysayers were Derby and Bolton

'Look what we could become if we changed ownership, we'd go the same way as them'

They've had to give up on those now that both clubs are in better financial and structural health than us, are getting far better crowds every week, know how to renew contracts and aren't having their coaching staff poached off teams below them in the table. 

Fortunately the Bury example can still be trotted out although worth noting they are still in existence and they are upwardly mobile - set to clinch another promotion this weekend and expecting over 7000 fans on Gigg Lane to witness it. Their gates are better than times in the Football League and I'd wager they'll be back in the Football League before we are rid of Venkys or see the top division again.

So Bury 😱 will have more on this weekend than we will next season.

Over 8000 on Scunthorpe for the visit of Chester a couple of weeks ago another club on the way back from bad owners.

All about opinions but for me 'Jonty boy' epitomises the reason why we cant get the Fan's united behind getting these tossers out for good.

Fifteen years of watching our Club being dismantled and humiliated and we still have shit for Brains like this... 'nothing to see here folks'!

What chance have we got eh?.What a Grade A Cunt.

Well, don't sit on the fence, will you!

As are Boltons gates since they did their ST deal a few years ago and once they eventually climb back into this league they'll quickly re-establish themselves above us.

Then the talk will be 'oh they ave 20k we can't compete with that'.

The down scalers here have almost won their battle to permanently reduce this clubs size and standing into one they can easily manage.

...And there's the rub folks!.

NO true Rovers fan with a vested interest and who gives a damn about this Club can ignore the shenanigans that are going on..you simply cant separate the two issues,Heads cant be buried in the Sand.
