I'd agree with that but he looks like a man who'd enjoy it.

A bungling CEO. Who oversaw a second January transfer window in which his staff got it spectacularly wrong. The same man who heard chants at the weekend of "Waggott out". Brings in senior players to tell the fans, to their faces, to not create a toxic atmosphere. I'd say that's pretty cynical and shameless all things considered.

I hope someone pointed the finger at Waggott and said you're a big part of the problem. Why bring in a head coach and DOF with the orders of champagne football when you knew full well that we were going to have to tighten our belts?

It's shameless considering the club is again, the laughing stock of football because of his organisation. No resignation, just hold a bullshit meeting to create a thinly veiled jab at the people who pay and actually care about the club.

A CEO of a football club using the players as meat shields. And the fans being told it's them that need to step up 😄 Get that awful cretin out of our club.

Whoever said that will be sacked next week if Mrs Desai hears about it. That's the Rao's orders, play attractive football and develop players. That's why the coward with the beard who knew that we were having the budget massively reduced, hasn't told the owners that's what we need to do. So you've got a coach who has been brought in at cross purposes, and a CEO who doesn't want to upset the apple cart with his paymasters.

The dressing room were pissed off with the higher ups, not the coaches. Whether that's changed I don't know. That meeting seemed cynical to me. I just hope the players realised the anger is towards the reckless and stubborn owners.

Late Feb, so unless they recruit from within I reckon it'll be a repeat.

I doubt he'd ever consider it after the way they messed him around in 2016.

We'd be bouncing between L2 and none league, Myles Anderson would be a Rovers veteran still playing CB on PL wages. Jerome Anderson would be CEO, Kean DOF.

I think it's fair to say Coyle had an arguably better squad with the likes of Graham, Mulgrew, Conway and a hungrier Sam Gallagher. Not that it was any good back then but the point is we had more capable individuals. This time we've got Szmodics and not much else. I think we have other players who would do better alongside better players, but there's too many missing pieces of the jigsaw for any coherence. Some fans are just unwilling to accept defeat with this, that the damage was done in the two three transfer windows and there's not much that can be done similar to the state that Mowbray inherited. Instead of building they've taken it apart and injuries haven't helped. I'll be interested to see if the next man does any better. It's rare for a team in turmoil behind the scenes to get away with it for too long.

So will the next man, and the next man, and the next man.

He'll have to if he doesn't want to pay his contract up. Imagine the relief when he can finally escape from all the nonsense. I wish it was as easy for me.

What? Playing an imbalanced squad, filled with academy players, freebies and players who couldn't hit a barn door with a banjo? Old Tone got backed.

I'm seeing the biggest backlash against the owners since 2012.

Along with Babu, and didn't Glenn M say Waggott told him Mr "Frosty" Desai was in England? https://www.rovers.co.uk/club/staff

It's a shame it hasn't worked out, as he's obviously got a wicked sense of humour and with backing has much more potential. He'll go on to greater things. Us on the other hand... 😞

There’s more… This bizarro world deserves a thread.

On her profile she says she’s looking for “shrimp dicked slaves” that need to be “locked”. And no that’s not a typo, she’s holding up a padlock.

Yep me too. His 5 friends hail from the Netherlands, Poland, Czech, Liverpool (?!) and an unknown called Gaia TOz whose profile consists entirely of memes, with over 4000 followers. The profile is searchable should anyone need to see it with their own eyes. Before it’s deleted.

Want to see his 5 friends…

5 friends too.

No leaders, no goals without SS, no scrappers. If we take away Dolan, Carter, Hyam, Gallagher and the loanees/old fellas, that’s our league 1 team next season.

Someone needs to swap those words around.

If they are actually Rovers fans… We should have a bot thread.
