Did he also say he's not being paid. He said he was doing it for charity. I think he means he has a few Bob in the bank and he'll survive whatever happens in the Rovers job.

Did I just hear B***** in his Carlisle interview say that he went to church on Wednesday, spent an hour and realised that he has been sent here to join us?. The inside a church has a very special atmosphere. The perfect place to gather your thoughts.

I like what he has to say.A call to get together is very much needed.I'm sick of the anti B***** stuff because it is destructive to the club. WAQ is backing Joe,a manager that appears to want to stay and get us to the 2nd tier.In the scenario our results do improve as Joe suggests and however slowly,then we might begin a new and successful era. WAQ is backing JB and assuming we want to beat Carlisle United,I hope the we can get behind JB and Rovers tomorrow. He is trying to say the right things but he mentions City in a Rovers presser and asks the fans to be careful what we wish for. Not great and I am still hoping he will succeed atm. I want more than 4 wins in the next 10. I'm sure he does. I thought Cian spoke well today. He mentioned what Lansdowne has done for City Mango and said WAQ has plans to massively improve Rovers lot, a la Lansdowne.He suggested Gasheads that openly criticise WAQ might offend him and I suppose we might lose him."Careful what you wish for". I wish WAQ would let us in on those plans.

He explained he knows the way and has the expression to take us a couple of divisions higher.Self belief. Time will tell,maybe sooner rather than later.

We have to be careful about what we say about mental health. But based on that interview, on balance, I would have to draw the conclusion, that he is clinically insane. The National Secular Society must be absolutely fuming.
Gasheads are completely and utterly bewildered.

Don’t we know we’ve never had it so good Yes I think it was a wee bit clumsy by Joe,but he still apparently has plenty of self belief and coupled with WAQ support,well this is where we are.

You are right though, we can interpret in different ways but only time will tell.

He is under a lot of pressure both with his pending Court cases and his failure as our manager.Not getting good vibes here as his normal 'confidence and optimism' has gone.Whatever the reasons,he is showing signs of genuine stress albeit self inflicted or not.

And we don’t really know what is going on at home either, do we? Basel - let this guy go. He clearly has too much pride to surrender and walk, but if clubs keep a manager where it’s not working too long, it’s just needlessly putting them through it really? I would go out on a limb and say, despite the B***** hatred, not a single Gashead wants to wake up to hear of a found in garage with motor running tomorrow - especially if there’s suspicion the club were hanging on to sack him for free, as the day in court grows closer the pressure on him will be massive, are you listening Wael, pay the man off, theres lots of things he can do with his life other than football management, he could even turn around his whole reputation with punditry after impressive memoirs. If he tries again at another club and is a success, I don’t care. That will just be a happy ending. Chris Houghton ain’t so crap, plenty of excellent experience, but Forest sharp to show him the door, the fresh voice and approach galvanised same set of players. There’s got to be someone with bags of experience out there happy to work with what he inherits here, to try and organise them into more composed and confident performances. Surely it’s screaming at us, this is the right moment.

That was right up there with Cantona warbling on about trawlers, seagulls and sardines.

He doesn’t sound well, he needs some time off.

A quite remarkable interview.
14 minutes 10 seconds long. The interviewer spoke for the 10 seconds of them.
Only 2 questions were asked throughout the duration. After the first question, JB spoke for 10 minutes 20 seconds straight.
JB is an interviewers dream.

I don't listen to his pre or post match anymore.
But I saw the bit about the church, churches are great places to think, just about the only place indoors where you can really think in peace. I quite often sit in a local church to get my head in a more positive frame. I recommend it along with hugging trees.

We have to be careful about what we say about mental health... Based on the comments on here I wasn't going to listen to the interview for fear of making myself angry... but I did and surprisingly anger wasn't the emotion I felt. It was a mixture of bewilderment, confusion, and a level of sorrow both for B***** himself and the future of our club. Perhaps B***** is angling for sympathy/empathy, which speaks to his current mental health. Despite my dislike of the guy I genuinely hope Wael and BRFC are considering his wellbeing. I think the best for everyone would be for him to take a break for a month or two.
