Looks like the lack of investment.........

[godlike1]

And trying to do things on the cheap are starting to show their head as we start to drop like a stone.

Once a new managers tactics, lack of investment to add to the squads depth are found out we start to drop like a stone.

Nice one

Isn't it amusing that the same old faces only ever post when the results doesn't go our way. What cheerful lives they must lead!

Nope I post lots of positive things on here about the club as well so that comment just shows how blinkered you are

McCann literally said he had money to spend but didn't feel like spending it. Stop being dense.

No but we all know them

Wasn't the last reliable information we heard that we had roughly a top 8 budget?

We're 8th.

Hardly dropping like a stone, just need to stick a couple of wins together and we'll be back in the play off slots

Baldwin has said now that any new signings will be in addition to the budget and will need backing up with reasons why

"Gavin Baldwin insists the Doncaster Rovers board are open to making extra investment in the playing squad during the January transfer window."

Means the board are open to the team being strengthened. Nowhere in the article from the other day does he say the budgets spent or not spent.

With so many player’s contracts coming to an end, it’s got to be a bigger headache now that form is dipping.  As I see it you either demonstrate to the players you’re looking to keep by signing replacements now for those you’re attempting to get rid of or just get loans in to bolster the team and tread through treacle until the end of the season , with players not pulling their weight knowing their contracts won’t be renewed. Otherwise form of the team could  just go further down hill.

Extra investment,
So not money that’s currently available in the budget.

Here we go again a few bad results and out of the woodwork they appear.
We are not playing badly we are just giving away some goals by not closing down and not taking our chances at the other end.
Yes 1st half today not good, we were pedestrian to say the least.
2nd half we were all over them. Coventry we’re defending as if their lives depended on it. 10 men behind the ball.
We through everything at them bar the kitchen sink. Very unlucky not to get a well deserved equaliser.
No need to panic. If we play consistently with the intensity as we did in 2nd half today then this poor run of results will be just a blip.

[dickos1]

I’m not out of the woodwork mate, I’ve always said our starting 11 is good but we don’t have the numbers to cope when the suspensions and injuries kick in

[Chris Black come back]

This is exactly the point. Where we are currently is where we really should be. The last guy never in a month of Sunday’s had us in top half. The current guy has never been in bottom half. If we finish this season knocking on doors of play offs then this will have been a good year - and a manifest improvement on what we had served up last year and in our relegation season.

Did I say i was talking about you Dickos. No I didn’t and I wasn’t.

We were never in the top half under Ferguson? Are you sure about that

An interesting stat is in Ferguson’s first 16 games we got 25 points, in McCanns first 16 games we’ve got 25 points.

[drfchound]

I hope we do better in the next nineteen games then.

Well ive enjoyed them 25 points a whole lot more,I wanna be entertained not bored to death

[dickos1]

Not sure u were bored to death in Ferguson’s first 16 games
Later on you’d have a point but in those first 16 games there were some cracking games

And a failure to successfully achieve the board's remit, which is a top 6 finish.

[drfchound]

Two thirds of the season still to go.
Don’t panic.

[karlos]

if we didn't have JM we would be knackered  I stated at the start of the season we needed another striker and I still stand by that. Will's just does not do it for me to much of a hot head.

[drfchound]

But we have got JM.

[karlos]

We need more than jm

Our last seven league goals have been scored by seven different players.
