Doesn’t make sense and doesn’t stack up but what does…? Gestede as head of football operations because he’s a former player and has no credentials at all for the role……..it’s all a total sham.

Terrible demeanour and looks like he switches off at points during matches….just sits there and looks fed up. Must be up there with one of the worst starts to a managerial reign, had some decent fixtures too. Maybe needs another international break to give him extra time to get his “ideas” across to the players (with a lot of them out of contract in the summer, I’m sure their care factor will be high…)

Well done @glen9mullan and all involved - loads of coverage generated today. Regarding Gestede - was yet again a very odd appointment.

Local rival and their situation is of course relevant to us as we have similar financial problems - strange post...

Wow, massive losses/debt, that's why I was asking the other day how we fair comparatively. Link below shows biggest one year losses in English football @sportingintel: Bolton join .... errm ... an elite band. http://t.co/ayyK0r8Hek

They are missing a few key players - plus are as average as us so thinking we won't lose...

Have to say, care factor is very low.

Exchanged a few PMs with Kelvin over the years - a thoroughly nice man who cared deeply about Rovers. Very sad news. RIP

Along with that, the Germany incident with a Sky Sports reporter (drunk again). The pi**ed up video when he claimed top 10 finish and a trophy. These are just the stories we know about too. He is a first rate chancer who is taking the mick remaining in his role.

With Kean and Hendry regarded as big drinkers and in poor shape themselves, hardly a good example to be set by management -- feel sorry for Eric Black who is one of the more normal members of staff we have behind the scenes.

Sorry to hear this news - RIP.

RIP Fred.

So so sad :-(

Could be that he might not be feeling well at the moment but I thought he did not look that healthy.
