Do you not fancy management Macca?

100%. I will be taking my remaining badges in the future and will definitely become a manager.

Execellent, good luck! Thanks for all the memories, it was a joy to watch you play!

Can’t believe I am seeing some of these disgraceful ripostes aimed at Macca. If it really is him and we have no reason not to believe it then don’t we owe him the courtesy of asking football related questions only. Anything else has nothing to do with us does it?

I agree, pathetic some of these abusive and sarcastic posts
Pleased we can agree on something Dickos. Can we be at peace with each other from now on.
I can’t do with this verbal agro. Life is too short.

Yes mate, of course.

What did you think Michael when you looked over and touchline in extra time vs Arsenal with us 2-1 up and saw Sam Oji being brought on?

Michael, do you remember the 2-1 away victory at Mansfield, a lot of supporters, me included thought that was the defining moment when we believed promotion was coming our way, did you & the players feel the same or was it just another 3 points on the board, thanks.

Was wondering Macca, did you watch the playoff final against Leeds in 2008?

Still my favourite away game. Macca and Blundell were brilliant.

Absolutely, Macca ran them ragged, & they couldn't handle Gregg, great day

Question for Macca...

As a player, did you look at forums and social media, and did you get affected by the comments?  And your team mates too?

I notice that there is always exaggeration and hyperbole, including on here - lose a game and the players are shit and the manager needs to be sacked - win, and the play offs become a minimum target...

Macca you inspired this Englishman to wear a Scotland shirt with McIndoe emblazoned on the back for several foreign holidays. Pleasure to watch you Sir.

Anne leave it alone. You are out of order.
It takes some guts doesn’t it to come on here after all the bad publicity Macca received in the media. Let’s face it we do not know all the facts. Do you? Give it a rest please.

It's a valid question.

I'm also still waiting for an answer with the other one.

If he can do soft talk (e.g. what is your favourite memory) then he should be able to do the hard talk questions as well.

He did have the opportunity to do this on a live segment of BBC West Midlands radio back in October, but that fell by the wayside as well.

Has he also given reasons why he was so upset about one particular issue of the fanzine yet?

I can't even take you seriously. It's funny because I did the BBC West Midlands interview. It aired around 16:35pm on 16 October 2017 with Richard Wilford while sat in the BBC Bristol studio. It was one of several I did that day.

You're a blatant liar and you're not worth talking to.

My apology - I've got crossed wires. You did do an interview which was aired on BBC West Midlands on 16th October.

The following day, however, you also pulled out of a live interview on BBC Radio 5 Live which was scheduled for 10am. Other footballers had done pre-recorded stuff, were going to call or text in, and questions were going to be put to you.

Why did you pull out of this?

And why do you still refuse to answer the question of whether you're going to pay people back? Or why you threw your toys out of the pram when there was an article in the fanzine which you didn't like.

Over to you, Michael...

Micheal, did you as a player ever look on fans forums to see what the fans thought?

The 0-4 hiding your Yeovil side gave us at BV in the Confrence promotion year was a football masterclass. I’d never seen anything like it at that level before.

Been out all day so have only just discovered this thread.
No questions but I'd just like to add to what others have said.
Michael you were in the top 5 players I've seen in the hoops and I've been watching Donny for 50+ years.
As Jonathan posted, your contribution in promoting the Rovers by your electric perfomances galvanised the fans and brought many new young uns to the club, many of whom are still here.
So thanks for pulling on the hoops and good luck for the future.

I remember that game well. I believe it was Macca who scored that farcical free kick past poor Andy Warrington was it not? We were the 2nd best team in that league and that Yeovil side was so far ahead of us it wasn't even funny. That free kick just summed up the gulf in class and footballing nous.

No idea if this is in the book or not, but did you ever mend ways with Dave Penney? Personal feelings aside do you think he got the best out of you as a player, and the rest of the squad?

I’m sure McIndoe has had worse to deal with than a few anonymous pseudonyms throwing out jibes on an internet forum.

Assuming this is the real Michael McIndoe, I think it’s great to see this kind of interaction with the fans. And anyone that didn’t appreciate him when he played football for us really needs to give themself a shake.

  To be honest this guy is someone I never saw have a bad game for The Rovers, Mr consistency, and he sprinkled the good games with more than a few brilliant games.
   I have not seen many players dominate a premiership side all the game like he did to Arsenal, that was one of the best performances by a Rovers player I have ever seen considering the opposition.

Hi Macca,If I wrote everything I'd like to write to you,Nobody would read through it all,It would be 3 thread pages long,99% complimentary.So I will keep it short,as Im lazy.You was a BIG,big part in mine and my families enjoyment in your time with us.Many,many fond memories,home and away.I'd like to ask you about the Penalty at BV and Greg was going to take it and you had a chat with him and seemed to have a hot discussion and then you took it.I don't think DP was happy about it,I'd like to ask what you and Greg said to each other?I heard at the time from a good work friend of mine,that I believe you knew/know through family,why it happened,but I understand it was not wise to publicise it at the time.Maybe it's alright now?Maybe you can confirm what I was told was right?If you prefer not to say publicly,you can PM,I've not said anything all these years and will not if you prefer.
P.s. all the women/girls I knew at Rovers,all seemed to have a crush on you,except my wife,she's had/got the hots for Copps  :blush: LOL.

Agreed Selby.I can only ever remember one defender keeping Macca quiet and that was a young right back playing for Tranmere against us at BV,Ryan Taylor,I thought at the time,he was the best opposition player I had seen all season,and wished we could sign him,I was not surprised when he went to Premier league with Wigan then Newcastle.Whats your thoughts on that Macca?Was Ryan Taylor one of the best you came across while with us?

Drover, if you want to doubt me that's absolutely fine.

Nevertheless, these lads looked up to him and were young and impressionable, and it cost them a lot of money.

Michael definitely knows who I'm on about (and this is absolutely Michael McIndoe posting for anyone who has doubts) as he's been pressed for answers at numerous points over the last 5 years but he always hides away from the subject.

He also won't get back into football because nobody in football wants him anymore.
