I was amazed- and saddened- to hear the chanting about him today, and there were a fair amount of people joining in. He would be my first choice as manager simply because I think he would get us organised and out of this mess, and let's not forget , City absolutely romped this division with him in charge.
I was never a John Ward fan, but he was welcomed back with open arms by many (and let's not forget how that ended btw) yet here is a bloke who, on the face of it, has all the right credentials and a proven track record at this level, yet a seemingly a sizeable, certainly vocal, amount of our support don't want him because of his previous connections and some throw away comment about 'Ragass Rovers' which I don't even think was directed at us (If someone has the clip of him saying it I would love to see it).
I have a horrible feeling we may be getting the club we deserve.

I have known several Rovers players over the years and one I can think of was an absolute dickhead, but a very good player for us.

Did you never hear his interviews after an 82 game?

Did you never hear his interviews after an 82 game? So are you saying that you don’t want him to be our manager, because of his interviews after games? Not because of his ability as a manager.

Not because of his ability as a manager. Those interviews said a huge amount about the man and I wouldn't want him anywhere near my club. If you are talking about his managerial abilities why not also focus on his failures such as in his last job at Birmingham?

I just don’t understand it then, I couldn’t care less about what he says to the press. Obviously if you said that you didn’t want him because of his managerial ability and cited Birmingham, I would understand your view point.

Not sure his success in L1 with City is any indication he’s the right to man to get us out of this mess - they had one of the highest budgets in the division (if only!)
I joined in with all the anti-Cotterill chanting yesterday because, having met the bloke on a number of occasions, he is a prize tw*t.

Why is he available? simple he is a serial failure. This character if appointed would split the support down the middle with the first sign of trouble causing havoc. We’ve got a rough diamond at the helm at the moment that could well be the answer to our current predicament if yesterday was anything to go by.

I think that SC could do a good job at this level IF he had adequate funding. However if he did get the job now I would have a feeling that it had all been sorted out before DC left,in fact I would feel that if there was an internal appointment too.

We will get someone cheap. You can see from the Clubs official bull-sh*t statement that they have allegedly spent a "considerable sum" of money on a pretend new Stadium. Therefore there will not be the funds available to hire anyone of any calibre, certainly not anyone who is actually gainfully employed at the moment. I fully expect a new manager 'from within' who will be cheap. We are a shambles.

Assume you never met Harold Shipman so you are ambivalent to him then?

Whilst off spending huge sums on a stadium somewhere, but they can't say where, they forgot to find a couple of hundred quid to fix the scoreboard. If something doesn't make much sense it's usually because it isn't true.

Assume you never met Harold Shipman so you are ambivalent to him then? How can you possibly form any opinion based on hearsay or what is written in the media. I met him just once and he came across as a normal person enthusiastic about football but it is your opinion but I expect people have opinions about you no one is perfect and no one is friends with everyone thstshould life
