At FT I stayed behind….
« on April 01, 2023, 05:44:44 pm by Filo »
To voice my displeasure to the idiot in charge, he couldn’t wait to get away from the West Stand to shake everyones hand and then proceeded to clap and give a double thumbs up to the East Stand, no idea what that was supposed to mean, then clapped an almost empty South Stand and West Stand before scurrying down the tunnel, the handful of people left, left him in no doubt how they feel!

We were pulling up outside the house in Kirk Sandall at full time absolutely hopeless

I genuinely cant understand why folk are wasting their time and money watching this shower anymore. Its not enjoyable and hasnt been for months now. Find something else to do because the club as it stands dont deserve your money.

its hard. loyalty to ones club. the town, the badge.
i wasnt there today. and thats probably me for this season. and without big change, prob into next season.
week in week out getting the proverbial kick in the balls and not being entertained is difficult to justify.

He lost it several games ago, maybe soon he will come to his senses and realise he’s not a 1st team coach and for the good of the club leave before his reputation gets even more damaged.
Oh and can he take Blunt with him, because between them if brains were dynamite, they wouldn’t have enough to blow their noses.

Hopefully, he knew it was his last game in charge.

Regardless of the football served up, some of us like it for the social aspect, the football is just there to give us a reason to see each other and catch up.

Regardless of how crap it is, I’ll keep going as long as the ones I go with weekly keep turning up.

Hopefully, but I doubt it, he should have been sacked as soon as he entered the dressing room

Agree with you to a certain extent, however there’s only so much that people will put up with watching a club in crisis week in week out, money for many of us is really tight with what’s going on in the world, and to endure this shite I don’t blame anyone who stays away, maybe staying away is the best statement we can all make to this board, management and players

Exactly how I feel.  I sit with a great group of fans and enjoy the social aspect but we are all of the same mind of how poor things are now

It’s been inevitable for weeks now that he’s got to go. Why don’t we do it now. Utter madness to wait till next season

The worry for me if I was a Rovers fan would be going in to next season on a run such as the one you are currently on .

If memory serves me right you fell spectacularly in the Covid season when very well placed in January to the extent you were well short of the play offs in the end .

The following season you were relegated to league two .

You can see it from over here that as a club you are in crisis and it needs addressing this summer and positively too .

The fans need a massive lift and the club need to give you one .

You need a manager with a credible record either in league one or two  and some signings that gives the fanbase something to get positive about .

Players you know and have done it at this level , some names in league two terms .

The club needs to be brave this summer and raise the fans spirits and ST sales .

If this current mindset doesn't shift Rovers could be in real trouble next season in my opinion .

This is pretty much the opinion of all sane Rovers supporters nowadays. The whole club, from top to bottom, is toxic.

Yes, I saw the double thumbs up to someone in the East stand too. What was he so proud about after that shambles? It's the sheer arrogance and stubborn attitude of the man. We're 2-0 down and still he sticks with one up front when it was crying out for either Agard to come on or to put big Tom up front to at least try and get back into the game. But, no, let's stick with the same process and formation which doesn't work and put one of our attackers at left back instead. Totally clueless.

When the West stand start joining in with the South Stand you know even the die hards have had enough

No not quite. We were just outside the league one playoffs, with a massively in form Jacob Ramsey on loan, when COVID kicked in. I genuinely think we'd have been promoted had that season carried on. But we started the post COVID season in great form under Darren Moore. It all fell apart the following January.

I went on 70 mins. Couldn’t stomach it any further. We are shambles of a club. Not point saying anymore, it’s all been said countless times over the past 2 years.

There’s no saviour on the horizon folks. This is the new reality

Stop going. Simple as that just stop going. It doesnt make you less of a supporter if you call it a day. I think it makes you more of an idiot than a supporter if you do go. Support something that is heading in the direction you want it to go in. If not then whats the point? Blunt out.

Us idiots need to keep going else they'll be no club for the non - idiots to come and watch when/if the team turn the corner.

Wonder what it's costing in extra security/stewards the Club?
Why the need to defend the South Stand as they have for the last couplle of games?

all the talk of sustainability of the club never mentions crowds. surely the club wouldnt be sustainable playing in from of crowds of 2k every week?

There's a significant point that you're missing though, Beast. Many of us who are staying away have already renewed for next season.

I'm prepared to continue to support the club financially, but that doesn't mean I have to attend, and watch football that's worse than what you'd see at Frickley.

Probably to stop anyone doing a pitch invasion protest.

You're quite legitimately frustrated, as pretty much every fan is. But directing that frustration at fellow fans, who are also hurting, is just completely destructive. Surely you can see that.
