Ismael's job is simple - to keep us in the playoff place that he inherited when he took over

After today, he has taken us from 5th to 7th in his first game.

Needs a win desperately at Derby next week. As it stands, he's failing

jesus christ,he`s only had one game😲

Albion fan in peace (I hope that's ok), I just wanted to offer a slightly different perspective on Val from a lot of the noise you'll hear on social media. Val came into our club at a time where we'd

Decent appointment for me … Got a mixture of JDT & Eustace … I like my managers like Souness & Hughes who are leaders and are not pally with the players to an extent…… He’s a decent age t

It's time to go Ismael. I'm not normally calling for people to go so early.  I see no passion from him at all, his demeanor is pathetic. When we were 2 nil down so early, he should have shouting

We will discover over the next 11 games how much of being in and around the top 6 was down to Eustace and his staff.

I would say the signings made in the Summer Window are the ones who have got us into  the play off hunt.

I suspect that Park was key in bringing most of those players in.

Of the January signings, Ribeiro looks steady enough and Kargbo has potential, but needs to produce more end product.

The other late in the window signings are looking a bit desperate just now.

We all know the kind of model we are supposed to be adopting, but how anyone can have faith that this current incarnation will end any differently to the others under Venkys ownership is beyond me.

It’s akin to still believing in Father Christmas.

Have you read @unleaded;s comments that Park left cos of Eustace? 

I think Park along with Owen and Gestede was behind most of the summer signings. Gueye was probably Gestede, or Owen with Ohashi. 

Ribeiro has been very good since signing and Karbgo impressed today.

Of course its all about the quality of the player not the priced we paid. 

Quality and price tend to go together, though its still possible to get a bargain. However we have a scatter-gun approach to transfers,

Sign a few for next to nothing in the hope that a couple will turn out OK. Then accept the accolades for "playing a blinder" and ignore the failures.

Its not a recipe for inspiring confidence is it?

By the way we're not top 6 anymore, did you notice?

Finally can you please check your posts before you send them, I'm still trying to disentangle that penultimate last sentence and its very annoying.

There's loads to complain about when it comes to Rovers, but come on. The man's been here 4 days. I've got older milk in my fridge.

Derby’s first win under Eustace. Horrible modern expression but it’s absolutely nailed on.

Meanwhile we’re bringing in a coach from the football hotbed of Eastbourne apparently.

Eastbourne. That’ll fix it

I believe we are refusing to pay the 50P release clause in Murray’s contract.

He might buy himself out, as he is minted.

11th manager in 14 years (+ 5 caretaker spells in that time)
So generally looking for a new manager in 1.27 years.
IV has a 4 year contract 🙂

Bonkers isn’t it? And he’s rarely stayed anywhere long. No wonder he can’t stop smiling. Far more sensible would have been to have given him a 2 year contract (at most) in the summer provided he gets us into this season’s playoffs. Welcome to Waggott’s BRFC easy street

Thought i'd have a peek at the rovers website to see what Val had to say:

"“We were really disciplined against a strong opponent, a direct opponent for the play-offs."

Eustace is clearly a better manager. 

probably,however he  has inferior players,he might try to overpower and outwork us because derby won`t be outfootballing us,the return od tronstadt is massive for us

Adam Murray was part of Ismael staff at Barnsley, WBA and Besiktas 

I have to wonder why his career since has taken him to Eastbourne after that, if he's any use. They play in the sixth tier.
