As you were, two seasons ago, the performance against Northampton was oh so reminiscent of then, DC hopefully will get it right, only the first game and a good wake up call for him.

Just terrible. Get DC out. Not a FL manager. Are you serious after one game, granted not a good team selection and poor tactics and no plan B or C, he will learn from this and hopefully get it right.

If players are not fit why play them, Easter showed no pace yesterday, albeit he or Taylor did not have any decent service but when they did manage to get the ball did nothing with it. So if Brown, Easter were not 100% fit they should not have started. Semi fit players can get found out in league football especially against an uncompromising team such as Northampton
Lines looked like the player we had before, not up for a battle, however he must have a Mansell type player alongside him to reap his qualities,
Northampton were better than us because we just played into their hand/heads and they had players who could hold the ball up whereas we just lumped it and hoped for the best. and with our very poor midfield they just won most of the second balls with ease, just like the season before last.
Let's hope this is a lesson learned and DC quickly addresses some of the issues from this game

What hope is there for the Rovers? The Clarke out mob will be out in force if we don't beat Northampton and not top by September. The man should have walked after Wembley. He will get shafted again if he isn't careful. Most supporters know the qualities DC brings as a manager. However the only people who will be doing any shafting is the BoD who simply are demonstrating again their incompetence ie no shirts for youngsters at the open day, playing budget, looks like everything done on the cheap, and all the eggs in one basket (Lines) surely we are not asking for a lot, just a team who can compete in Div 2 and finish above halfway or better.

The lack of scoring is worrying, but not surprising, as soon as we play any team on our level or more we struggle. We are still short on quality as Steve K points out DCs comments of players demanding £1500 a week rang alarm bells with me, yet other clubs seemed to sign players without much trouble, and now DC states he is happy with a small squad, all this suggests our young fantastic manager is again working with a budget that has been slashed by the BoD before and especially after the Sainsburys decision went against us. Even though they quoted the playing budget was entirely from different pot. DC will have a tough job this season with the present squad to achieve a top seven finish.

Thank you Stevek Your reports have helped during our season in the Conference, I can't get to away matches and your comments have been better than any media reports. Not always agreed with some of your marks/comments at home, but that what makes football so good. Please carry on next season with your reports they are measured and brilliant.

Looking forward to the game, and let's be fair they are a reasonable side. IF we can keep their John Lewis quiet we should have a wonderful chance, won't we?

The Ref and his assistants will have a big part to play, they will have to be strong, FGR have another rule bending person in the name of Coles who will play the game to the limits and beyond if allowed to, if he plays. Hold on tight it's going to be a battle on Sunday with FGR showing their true tatics, and it ain't going to be pretty.

IF we end up in the playoffs, after next Saturday,and results dont go our way, do you think we would lose the impetus and drive required to win over the first two games in the playoffs.

Is this thread a joke,"do we sack him" it's going to be "can we keep him" after this season

Let's hope the referee is up for it as well.

Never rated him when he was with us, could not not tackle, limp in midfield, but always had a bit of quality about him. However he made it elsewhere? when we plummeted. Just hope he does not have the attitude of being the big fish in the small pond, though I am sure DC will not let that happen. Still glad we made the loan signing for the rest of the season, it may just be what we need.

If we were the away side wasting time and got a victory, not many would be on the forum moaning about time wasting? If I had to watch my team pull that cynical s*** every week, I'd moan about it. Are you suggesting The team you watch have never wasted time in a winning position, don't matter what you call it, it's wasting time, how many times they do it, once, twenty times it's still wasting time. Unless the Referee stamps on it early teams like Eastleigh will play the Ref especially like the weak Ref Saturday and get away with it.
