There is your new football club. Stop moaning. Back the team and board or start your new club.
Maybe we will still get relegated. However, with the board, management team, nucleus of players, we will be a force be it in league 2 but maybe still in league 1
-
Saw one or two sneaking out with their silly little yellow and black scarves on. Absolute idiots - the worst of the town and the worst of the club. Hopefully in time they’ll grow up as we need all the supporters we can get.
-
I'll will back them whatever, what a very odd post!
-
Fairly certain we won't be hearing much from them tonight! :laugh:
-
Regardless of the stupidity we may think of them, they are in the end just frustrated football fans like the rest of us.
-
They made the effort to go to Sunderland. They have the right to wear whatever scarf they like. I don't agree with their views generally but if they feel passionate about this then that's up to them. Nothing wrong with minority views. I have enough of my own and know the resistance they cause but if they feel it is right then that's up to them.
-
I will also back my club. Not an odd post. Just people need to realise that not everything is straight forward. That they should be happy we have a well run club. I understand frustration, we have all been there but to criticise when there is no need to in what they do

Presumably they don't think the club is well run - hence the protests etc?
-
I get that CDH, we must be one of the few clubs that are ran well. This is why it makes there stance idiotic?
-
They can think what they like and of course everyone’s entitled to their opinion. Few would argue that the club haven’t made some mistakes and I don’t take issue with anyone highlighting that. But getting yellow and black scarves and Netto stickers and flags printed is pretty tragic really. Pitiful.
As said above, I hope when they grow up they channel their energies into a more positive way of supporting the club rather than desperately craving attention (we know the sorts that tweet hundreds of times a day and just love the notoriety of always having something to moan about).
If they gave unfaltering support to the team despite their views on the ownership (as their strapline misleadingly claims) then I think they’d get more respect. But we all know that the next time we fall behind in a game they’ll all be back to chanting ”all our players are shite.” In the position we’re in that’s so unhelpful.
-

Fair enough Spilsby. I personally think there is room for improvements across the running of the club but i'm only talking issues that aren't structural or of a serious nature. By and large we are run as well as most could minimally expect i guess which makes me confused as to why this Netto lot do think the way they do.
-
I hope our away kit is yellow and black hoops next season then they will have to buy new scarves, what are Poundland colours?
-
We are all buzzing for the win!
If we take a tonking V Ipswich will that then be our “new football club.”?
What a very strange thread :lol:
Get on the sup like we are :)

Not a strange thread at all. If you can give it, be prepared to take it.
There's nothing fundamentally wrong with the club. You're protesting because we're losing. It's football, it happens.
We have to accept the big people have to make big decisions and sometimes things don't work out even given the best will in the world.
Put the banners and scarfs away and bring out the proper scarves and support the team. Don't get involved in things beyond your control and beyond knowledge. It rarely ends well. Leave that to Sunderland who have a bigger set of problems than we have relatively speaking.
Let's hope this is a turning point. Draw a line in the sand and move on. Be prepared to lose more games but let the manager and the team that's been appointed have a chance to turn it around.
-
Well i’m not of my view because we are losing at all.
I saw all this coming from when Darren Moore was here. The board have sleep walked into where we are.
Today is a very good win. This lone result changes nothing, only gives me one huge hangover tomorrow :sick:
On the piss, because of Rio Griffiths :party:
-
I'd accept Aldi FC.
Good value but generally decent quality with a touch of continental flavour.
-
Imagine coming up with a derogatory nickname for your own club, embarrassments.

And even worse revelling in it

The maddest thing is that, honestly, when we win and put in a performance like today, I take more satisfaction in us beating the Netto brigade than I do in us beating the opposition.
I know they say they’re buzzing about the win, and in the moment I don’t doubt that they are, but I firmly believe that they would take as much satisfaction in us losing so they could mop up a load of likes from equally thick cretins. People like that Ghosh character are just desperate for attention. His opinion would blow in the wind if he could get a reaction for it. And there are disciples willing to follow him for a few collateral likes. It’s pathetic and pitiful.
-
I will make it my mission to undo all your shit. We’re all Rovers. Sadly, you clearly are a self promoting w**k spangle. I hope we meet
-
Let’s make these f**king losers pay. Up
The Gav. I lost faith. I truly did but today Rovers stood tall. I f**king bleed red and white. Hide your f**king Netto flag you Kitson. I’ve marked your card

Love you Cappy

Just have a different view on how the club is run. League tables don’t lie, especially after all these games.

They both looked resplendent in their little scarves, obviously the rest of the gang have not got their pocket money yet to pay for theirs

Maybe when I’m a bit nearer, wouldn’t waste my time seeking them out
-
All that matters is we won, I don’t see where the satisfaction comes from, in proving other supporters wrong or right. What I don’t agree with is making the oppositions job easier by getting on our own players backs. But it’s freedom of speech, we get more and more of that taken away from us ,as the years pass. We’ve beaten a good club today, I’m just enjoying that.

Ghosh told everyone what he thought was going wrong with the football club and he’s been spot on. The only other time he’s been dead set against anything, was the Willie McKay experiment.
Bit silly to be going for one of the “brigade” who’s been willing enough to debate with the older fans in a mature way (plenty haven’t) and has had his eyes open to the goings on throughout. He called our recruitment policy out as being dreadful and severely unsustainable and called out our board’s football ideology’s as being seriously outdated. He said it can only make us go backwards on the pitch.
I’m not sure where you’re thinking he’s been wrong on any of that? The fact the club have failed to see they was wrong, failed to see what was coming and STILL fail to acknowledge they’re responsible is what has led to the growing faction we have now.
-
Gosh used to wear a t-shirt saying Ferguson Out and was on here everyday saying people shouldn't spend their money on Rovers until he left.
He is a professional moaner and disrupter who is trying to undermine the running of the club for his own means. Anyone who goes along with him is a fool.
Take some responsibilty for your own actions. The people responsible for the growing faction are the people who are doing it.

That was Dickov out*. He didn’t wear it to any game. He wore it to a Meet The Owners event (an event publicised as a night to air your views) where the owners sat there waxing lyrical about how great of a manager he was. They sacked him shortly after. He put ‘Fergie Out’ on it as an in-joke when one of his mates mentioned it and he wore it nowhere. He didn’t tell anyone how to spend their money or support their club! He hasn’t even told anyone to boycott through this for example :lol: he went to games under Ferguson and when the games under him got turgid he and many, many others used to go down into the concourse, or leave early and just drink instead. As is anyone’s right.
Instead of thinking Ghosh has some almighty power why not acknowledge that it’s growing with young and old because there is glaringly obvious evidence to the stuff being said?!!
You’re very wrong, Wilts.
What plenty on here are guilty of is burying their heads in the sand.
Whether you disagree or not, people can dislike the way a club is being run and question the competence of those running it while still absolutely loving the football club to death.
-
Both very poor managers for us. Both got us relegated when we should have stayed up. Only difference being that Dickov did this at a higher level, and Ferguson did better in the transfer market. Those five years were essentially lost to us having these two as our managers. We should have recruited Ferguson as a talent ID guy and brought in someone else as manager.
-
Grant McCann is the only good one we’ve had since SO’D, like you say Ferguson was brilliant at spotting talent. Ultimately not a great manager though. We really couldn’t fail to get promoted that season with the squad we had and that’s true of his P’Boro side last season.
I’m hoping McSheffrey can be a mix of both SO’D and McCann but he needs to be given time, be allowed to build a squad for developing and the long term. None of this sacking him after 6 months shite like with Wellens.

In fairness to Ghosh I recognise he goes to lots of away games (not sure about home?) and I do think he genuinely likes the club. However I also feel like leading a crusade to achieve a level of notoriety / attention probably comes first. I’m also not sure what his alternative plan for the club is should ‘the Board’ (i.e. the owners) sack themselves and walk away. Perhaps you could enlighten us on that? Or are we about to hear more contradictory statements about how Terry Bramall’s not inconsiderable financial input isn’t the issue, but we are tight and cheap. Or how you’re right behind the team if not the regime, but our players are cheap and shit and our manager is an under 18s coach? Forgive me for not quite getting it, and feeling like you’re all revelling in having T-shirts, stickers, scarves and flags printed, but not really having a clue what you’re actually trying to achieve other than highlighting a flawed transfer strategy which the club themselves have stated they are trying to learn from and move forward.
I know it’s probably really good for social media likes though. So keep going if that’s what fuels you. I bet you have lots of them every time you say Netto and it feels really good.
You probably could have got more likes if we had lost yesterday. But I know you’ll have enjoyed things about the win too and you can have your Netto things ready to chant and tweet next time we fall behind so you can feel really good. And get a lot of likes.
-
In a couple weeks/months/years when all this Netto stuff has blown over won’t the very few people involved feel very, very alienated especially when they get pointed out by others who remember them wearing their scarf and putting a sticker on a toilet cysteine.
-
I’d suggest if it’s still going on in a few years then we certainly won’t feel very, very alienated…
-
I’m sure I have missed an attempted explanation, but what’s Netto got to do with anything if the budget isn’t the issue?
How is singing a song with the words “The Rovers are shite” in it, “supporting the team” but not the regime?
Genuinely don’t get it all. Seems like what started as a light hearted banter song has developed in the a fully blown attention seeking routine.
-
Bet the Netto FC supporters are shit scared now that "capmeister" has marked their card.

If you read your last sentence, what are you hoping to achieve prior to next season?
You’ve said you want to see McSheffrey given time and develop a squad, he’s bought in 8 players in Jan, and generally most supporters would look at the signings and be pleased, a couple of young players with the potential, some experience to help around the squad and looking ok so far. I’m sure from a financial point of view it would have cost a few quid and not been cheap. The current squad nor McSheffrey will not change before the end of the season, so what are you actually wanting to happen?
I agree the board has made errors, predominately around what they come out and say as opposed to what they do, sometimes they should just keep quiet, example being substantial funds in Jan, why don’t they just say, we’ll back the manager in Jan in the areas he feels need improvement, they make comments that some hang onto and can then use as ammo when they don’t happen.

What will make you stop then? Go on, give us your specific definitive objective instead of your usual general whinges.

Rovers winning more often will settle things down Giyn.

That explains a comment last night by you, you’ve never met me but you don’t like me. You were part of the other protest group that wanted to see the end of this forum that you still post on, and the end of the VSC, through embracing a now defunct hedge fund. You appear to be a serial moaner intent on disruption using any platform you can

My memory of the other group was to act as an alternative, nothing else. I weren’t a part of it for probably the last half of its existence…
Guess what Filo, even before coming back posting I still read this forum daily, too :s
Guess what too? There’s been plenty of times where in the past i’ve been a right d*ckhead! I’m not delusional to think there won’t be times in future, too! Hopefully becomes less frequent as the years tick. Same with you though, you’re a proper little sniper on here. You, Janso and Glyn Wigley. It’s rare to see you’s post a football opinion that isn’t just a snipe at another poster or another set of fans.
I’m a serial moaner on things I disagree with, correct. I’m still also praising where praise is valid… I have my own opinions, formed by myself not shaped by others.

I first called all this out under Darren Moore tbf, while we were doing quite well in the league. Our contract/recruitment strategy hasn’t been sustainable at all.
I’ve enjoyed every win still. It’s nothing to do with winning. Everything to do with the future of our football club. We can’t continue with strategy’s and failing departments that are sending us backwards on the pitch.

He and they are full of contradictions and often misquote statements from the club to suit their agenda or vendetta. Quite an irony they refer to lies. This is nothing new, just dressed up differently to try to court attention from those willing to follow.
A fans consortium was their latest 'alternative' until they were shouted down perhaps when they realised this would probably the quickest route to the conference rather than their prediction of relegation with the current regime. They've moved from targeting TB, to Blunt and now to GB and are probably again rethinking their strategy and how to avoid heaping even more embarrassment on themselves.
Enough time wasted on this lot.

I'm not criticizing Danumdon.
Danumdon is saying that someone else has mental health issues and is an attention seeker and then proposes treatment options. I'm simply pointing out that unless it's bantz between two lads who know each other, it is appropriate to question if this is helpful.

So, CDH, you can constantly bombard us with your opinions on everything and everyone under the sun, but DanumDon can't give us his opinion on a person of huge malign influence.

Had to Google that :lol: Fair enough. Although I 100% do it out of genuine concerns and care about the club. Whether you or anyone else disagrees that that’s the case. It isn’t.
I’m not going to follow a club all over the country from 8 year old to now and take delight in us failing. THAT opinion by some on here is absolutely ridiculous :lol:

It’s a fact you take the most negative stance possible with regards the club whatever the situation.
You have done for years, the last time we went to league 2 you were adamant we would go straight down again.

Really? :ohmy:
Is somthing in my post incorrect ?
Considering you don’t know me personally i’d say yes. All of it :)
Whereas all of you know Gavin Baldwin personally! :silly:

So, CDH, you can constantly bombard us with your opinions on everything and everyone under the sun, but DanumDon can't give us his opinion on a person of huge malign influence.
That's the position right? Your neo libertarian ethos is now very very clear.

No I wasn’t, that’s a few time i’ve seen you just completely make things up :lol:
Trust me, if I did I’d admit it. There’s no harm in being wrong.
My thoughts were we had a squad too good for that league, we manager took keep hold of some cracking players like Tommy Rowe. I think I wasn’t convinced with the signing of Marquis though. Turned out decent enough.

That’s just like me saying how can you be so positive about him if you dont know him personally too? :lol:
(I have had a meet with him though, 1-2-1 or 2 if you count Shaun Lockwood).

So I've never met him, eh?

How would I know if you have or haven’t? I’d say you have in your role as a VSC director but can’t remember how long ago that was.
But by your reasoning, anyone on here or elsewhere who is positive about him, can’t possibly be if they haven’t met him personally? :lol: :lol:

I’d suggest if it’s still going on in a few years then we certainly won’t feel very, very alienated…
What will make you stop then? Go on, give us your specific definitive objective instead of your usual general whinges.
You still want to be taken seriously?

I’ve messaged some “against” and their group elsewhere with what I want. I’m not going to spend my Sunday writing it out to you who’s spent the last few days offering little but personal snipes at me (and others) personally (I could’ve put a few things about you but didn’t…).
You should’ve just been ‘mature’ :)
Onto the drink, won’t be making a mistake of posting pissed on here so speak soon, old friend :)

You might have said what you want but it all seems very vague and I've not seen anywhere how you would measure whether you've got what you want, so how would the club (or anyone else) know either?

I wish that they would go public with what they want, you never know we might even agree

Certainly can’t agree on the point that the club is not well run so I await their full manifesto

Guess what, you’ve not only been a d***head in the past & as you say will probably be one in the future, you’re being a d***head now which fundamentally makes you…..a full time d***head.
When you have the likes of ‘no eyed deer’ trolling you, you know you’re in dire straits.
Imagine for one moment that you are a Rovers player. You’re a young player learning your ‘trade’ so obviously there’ll be times when you make a wrong decision, you perhaps should have passed to a teammate in a better position instead of shooting & missing high & wide. Then you hear a section of the Rovers crowd chanting ‘We’re sh**e & we know we are……”.
The next time you receive the ball you’re in a much better position to shoot on goal, except you remember the chants & derision when you shot wide last time, so you choose not to shoot but slow down with the ball at your feet waiting for a teammate to catch up so you can lay the ball off to him because you don’t want to put yourself in ‘that spotlight’ again where your miss on goal became ‘the catalyst’ for those negative chants.
Unfortunately you’re tackled & lose the ball before a team mate arrives & so for a 2nd time you’ve made the wrong decision except on this occasion it was driven by those negative chants that are still in your head.
The chants have now become a self fulfilling prophecy of your actions on the field. Being a young player you can’t shrug them off & your game suffers as a result.
Just think about that scenario for a moment.
Bugger Ghosh & his ‘crusade’ telling all & sundry all he feels is wrong with the club & that he & his compardre’s have every right to shout their discontent from the roof tops at all & every opportunity because they feel they not only have that right but feel it is indeed their ‘duty’ to play devils advocate…..all because of their deep love of the club of course. Pish.
Think about that young player as you don your black & yellow ‘Hogwarts’ scarf.
Think about the owner as he hears those same chants & perhaps wonders if ploughing his children’s heritage into the club is worth it when that is his ‘reward’.
You don’t have a monopoly on being frustrated, angry, depressed at what you see & feel about events on & off the pitch at any given time during the years you follow & have followed the club. Bloody hell I’ve had my fair share of ‘dark periods’ in my club’s history since that chilly winters day in 1967.
But I don’t boo, I don’t shout out insults at individual players, I certainly would never dream of chanting ‘We’re s**t”...etc.
As for organising a group of disenchanted souls, having a banner made & waving it at matches to show the ‘world’ how clever I am to have made an association with my club & a ‘cheapo supermarket chain’ with coloured scarves to match….I couldn’t be a***d. Why? Because in the ‘dark periods’ (& believe you me my friend, in the grand scheme etc this is not one of them) I actually physically hurt too much.
I’ll have a moan with my brother on our 4 hour round journey. I won’t enjoy my tea. I’ll be ‘churning events’ over as the telly washes over me. I’ll smile & ‘chat’ to my wife but there’ll be an empty pit inside that I know will only be filled as I drive to the next game & the pit is filling with hope & wishes & yes even fear of a loss or a slight dread of a poor performance.
But that is the plight of the football supporter who wasn’t born in Liverpool or Manchester or Madrid or Milan. The ‘plight’ of the supporter born instead in Kidderminster or Halifax or Bury or (to a much lesser extent than the previous three) Doncaster.
And you know what, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
-
So, CDH, as you have no rational response to my point that you have one set of rules for yourself and another, completely different set for those people with whom you disagree, you will, undoubtedly, agree with me when I state that your ability to engage in dialogue and discourse is irretrievably stunted. You are a verbose megaphone with no ability to reflect, to ponder or to learn.
Happy days ahead in your unselfaware personal pit.

… An acknowledgement that our problems have stemmed from the football strategy deployed by the board being outdated. We are where we are because we don’t have a clue when it comes to what manager we want (and who) so we get left panicking for a month when they leave.
We are where we are because we sit on our hands allowing saleable assets contracts to run down and sign elsewhere.
We are where we are because any important player we do sell, we don’t almost instantly have a replacement for, sometimes never. Where’s Coppinger’s replacement? We knew he was retiring. Where’s Ben Whiteman’s replacement? I could go on. Players who had MASSIVE importance to how well we play. You only need to possess 2 eyes to know if you don’t adequately replace your star players then you’ll go backwards. Look at Franchise FC, lose Matt O’Riley and replace him within days with Matt Smith, a player we know is absolute quality.
… The appointment of an (unconnected to the club) Director Of Football/Head of Football, to the board who’s ideas are more up-to-date, has real football knowledge and who’s allowed to employ his own team of people. Tasked with building a progressive football team, a profitable recruitment strategy and continuity throughout the club no matter who is the manager or head coach. A friend McSheffrey can ring is nothing and Baldwin & Blunt think that sort of thing is being “creative”!
A Director Of Football can ensure all the things that have been failing us, shouldn’t happen. Contracts, managers, football ethos, replacing players. All things our board are REACTIVE with, not PROACTIVE. Massive failings.
… Succession plans! Terry Bramall is in his 80’s and the only one acting as a “backstop” for any losses… He’s not going to live forever! What happens when he dies? We’re left with 2 owners who don’t have any money and probably Terry Bramall’s relatives who don’t want the club.
Now you’ll tell me this is where Club Doncaster comes in… Great, but that alone it isn’t enough, is it? Clearly. One bad financial year and that’s it, game over. Do you think we can progress on the pitch? Come on don’t be naive. The only successful era this club has had in our lifetimes is through owners who’ve been willing to fund. And that paid off! We built great sides and we sold some on at profits.
Tell me what our transfer strategy has been since everything’s been about Club Doncaster? Because if you can answer that then i’d like to know.
… Gavin Baldwin’s shares. He’s CEO but come on, gifted 33% ownership, why?! Put those shares up for sale instead of waiting for Terry Bramall to die before doing anything about the ownership! This is also part of what we want to see happen. For the future good. For all this “who’s going to buy us?!” Shit that gets spouted… How are us fans meant to know? Football clubs get bought and not all are bad. Go out and sort them because we 100% are going to need them.
One thing I do know is we don’t want to be left with just the not football wealthy pairing of David Blunt Gavin Baldwin as sole owners. Especially with one bad financial year, the panic to sell the club for survival then would open us to so many leaches! Bringing in new shareholders and funding while Bramall is around, with future purchasing of more shares in place ready for a full takeover is the smart way to go about it. I don’t want to hear this b*llocks about Bramall not wanting to work with other shareholders and it’s that trio or none of them. The football club is the most important thing, not friendship loyalty!
Starting from the summer the important things we want are:
- A DoF in charge of all footballing matters.
- We want a public stating of the boards succession plan.
- We want Gavin Baldwin’s shares put out for genuine investors wanting involvement in this football club
None of the people I know are taking delight in our plight, we all love this club! So get that thought out of your head, we care just as much as you’s do. We won’t sit back on things we see as wrong though.
That’s my viess.
And THAT is my last post on this matter on here because you can stick your f*cking sniping up your arse. Because you accuse me of doing that when you’s do it yourself. You’re no better or worse than I am. We all just share one thing in common and that is our hobby and passion is DRFC. No matter what each individuals opinions on situations are, that is still the fact.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend like I am.

The black bank Creche in the middle are the worst fans for negative chanting. As far as I'm aware they have nothing to do with those anti Baldwin and Blunt.
For what it's worth it's clear as day Baldwin has been good at generating revenue through club Doncaster however on the football side we've gone backwards with poor poor decisions and strategy.
Leave him to club Doncaster and get someone in with a football brain. Not even sure what Blunt does if anything?

I wish i knew what all that meant but thanks for the advice man.
Quite odd though for a bloke who claims to be enjoying the chance of a lifetime in deepest South America to wasting his time posting on here.
Enjoy my future posts on a wide variety of subjects Roberto. My verbose megaphone is doing just fine. ;)

On the subject of mental incapacity Bob? Where did you disappear to for 18 months? I preferred this forum when you were in the midst of a breakdown.

This whole Netto guff is attention seeking crap. Some little c*nt walked into the concourse yesterday with his shit scarf and you could see he loved the attention he got from his hangers on. They’re just children.
-
Why is this thread still running, yet another has been closed?
It's so the people that disagree with the running of the club can be slated.
Absolutely. Everyone's a fan. Some think they are holier than thou.
That's the problem isn't it, many of the users of this forum think you can't possibly be a fan if you're not up the owners rear.

Just ignore the Netto numpties. They are like a bad snotty cold or a dose of diarrhoea- unpleasant at the time, but you know that they will eventually go away.

Most of us have probably done daft things as kids but we didn't have tinterweb then. Don't worry they will grow out of it.
