Without cover for Kilgour, as Harries isn't good enough, and a decent striker who doesn't get injured every few games the season is over. I suspect Alfie was missed.

Today proved that B***** is tactically not up to it. That's why I won't be sad when he goes. It's all bluster, but he is the one culpable with poor set-up today.
Poor.

And this, despite several people blaming Rovers own supporters for 'making everything about Punchy', demonstrates yet again, it's not us doing it, the bloke's reputation and the 2 court cases are what have made those opposition supporters focus on our manager rather than trying to distract out team or engaging in banter with our supporters. Sooner he's gone the better.

Local amateur club with no fans and no history leaving us behind on and off the pitch and taking the p&ss out of us on the way. Not really. The table tell us they are top of L2 and that is the only area they are better or even equal to us. I would never swap there ground for the Mem, or there New 5k one if they ever get it. We have getter training ground, and a better and richer owner then theres. And we have a fanbase that can take 40k to Wembley while they take less the 5k.They are basically Mangotsfield on ALOT of steroids.And I bet if the Mangos were in FGR position they would he getting bigger crowds as it's a Bristol club. FGR are a village club, from the outskirts of Bristol with a top l2 club.Nothing More. The fact that this even a discussion is down to how far we have dropped AGAIN, rather than anything that they offer. Also my first post in along time after being banned from the other forum by bullies!

"Mangotsfield on a lot of steroids" is the greatest comment I've read on here for years.
Top, top work Icegas. 👍

Also my first post in along time after being banned from the other forum by bullies! Mark Cooper assembled a decent side and they are well coached by Rob Edwards. We assembled a lopsided squad (without pace and potency up front) and we are not well coached or tactically astute. This is nothing to do with fan base. It was unforgivable to play Pitman up front on his own. We had to match up - 3 up front - and turn it into a high press battle. Local Derby with our fans there. B***** talks a good game, but his selection and tactics lost us the game today. He admitted that himself in his interview at the end.

Also my first post in along time after being banned from the other forum by bullies! The UK honours system thinks that Hippy Boy is better than Wael, one has a OBE, the other doesn't. There aren't any exact figures, but anything between £100~300 million keeps coming up when you search for Vince's nett worth. What's Wael's personal nett worth please? Anyway, define 'better', Vince has picked up that village team and will have them in L1 before too long, despite having no support base, Wael was handed a club on the verge on a second straight promotion, with a stadium that holds double FGR's capacity, and has a huge support base, so far we've run up massive losses and got relegated. I would like to say that we hold the moral high ground as they employed Pipe, who I'm pretty sure never represented us again after his 'brush with the law', but Wael has put us in a position where we can't really stand in moral judgement on any other clubs right now What's wrong with that other forum, that's 2 people in 2 days that have come over from there complaining of bullying.

Are you watching it live? Yes, and quite painful it is. You will feel the tiredness for the next 72 hours

Who's the other one out of interest? And why? Yeah, you cant have a view over there if you don't agree with a select few. In the last year I have been...as well as others, relentlessly called a bigot and a racist due to views on different subjects ( Non Rovers related) and not agreeing with some mods and a few posters over there. The other day I was banned over my opinion on the advert about father Christmas being gay! - No warning, just a banning by Hugo the Elder, and a few others deciding that they didn't agree with me so I was clearly a bigot and a racist so I was gone! lol Well done! Not sad at all.. as it proves what they are! First off I have 2 accounts there under very different names from years ago, so I will continute posting on that site if only in the Rovers section as that's all I require.. and that's my choice. I'm not a angry/livid white man as they have suggested...LOL But wanted grown up debate which they will not let happen unless you agree with them. The thing is that I posted 1600 posts over there, I guess 1400 were all Rovers related, and never once was did I have an argument about the gas with anyone. I was also on the old Official forum for many years, and the same was said there. Only trouble happened when talking in the general debate about politics over with those bullies.. Only viewed this site daily until now as its seems alot slower that the other one, but it seems alot more open for adult debate then over there.

A decade or two in the Football League will soon have them chanting about wanting their Rovers back.

I think we were all expecting a defeat today, and that is what happened.
The current Forest Green Rovers team shows you what can be done on a limited budget, from a club with limited resources. I don't begrudge them their success at all. They will be in League One next season and fair play to them.
Long term we will overtake them as we have more potential, hopefully the club are putting the foundations for that in place now.
I'm not bothered by the defeat today, I am bothered about the recent dropped points against Tranmere and Salford. Those were games we HAVE to win if we are to be considered playoff contenders, which we currently are not.
This team has stabilised us, and relegation is not a concern now. We may have to accept that promotion is not going to happen this year.
