Stats don't lie
His tenure from February 2021 to October 2023 had seen the remarkable 2021-22 promotion campaign in League Two, but his overall record in League One amounted to thirty-nine defeats and only twenty-one wins in 77 fixtures. Rovers had incredibly lost 22 times in the League at home during his time in charge.

Reaching 200 posts. Is it time to retire this thread and put to bed Mr Bartons tenure here for good?

Nope. It's a fact of record.

Keep it going. B***** will inevitably do more questionnable things in the future and further add to the thread.

Al Qadi's shame of 22nd February 2021 is equal to this 197 page testimony of gasheads.org. We lost dedicated gasheads since that day, and it would be an insult to reduce this in any way. This thread outlasted the disasterous appointment, and of that, we may be sadly proud.
I hope to tempt the disillusioned back here, but those not interested in this are welcome on other threads too.

A month or so we discussed moving / anchoring the thread. On a show of hands Mods decided to leave it 'as is'. I visited Nuremberg recently. They still have the Kongresshalle and Zeppelinfeld (well middle section anyway) on the site of the Nazi rally grounds. They have not been demolished. They are a permanent reminder that political extremism, both left and right, must never be allowed to rear their ugly heads again. Horrendous historical mistakes must not be repeated. Obviously I am not equating the previous manager with leaders of the 3rd Reich. But I guess the thread stays.

"Deutschland, Deutschland uber alles". But not the first two stanzas. Everyone play nicely.

You are probably not old enough, but you left out the one who made up the trio for the wartime roundelay that British troops sang to keep their spirits up. 🎵 ". . . and Goebbels had no balls at all." 🎵

Apologies Sir. Hitler, has only got one ball... The funny thing is that it was almost true. A doctor’s report says he had one undescended testicle, and most of his doctors wrote that he commonly refused to take his pants off for medical exams. I also misremembered. The ditty was about four. Altogether now: Hitler has only got one ball, Göring has two but very small, Himmler is somewhat sim'lar, But poor old Goebbels has no balls at all.
