No, you've misunderstood what I've been saying. All along I've said that I have no personal malice towards the bloke and genuinely hope he's put his inner demons to bed and is a changed Man, I want him to be happy, healthy and successful in everything he does, my issues with him being here have been repeated so many times I'm bored of writing them, but will go over them again if you aren't sure, but never once did I suggest that he will definitely assault anybody again. But I'll tell you what, if he did lose his temper and do something to, for example, a youth player, Rovers would have some serious explaining to do. If you were responsible for him, would you be totally confident that you could leave him, unsupervised, in the workplace and know for sure that there's no possibility that you won't be hearing the wailing of Police and ambulance sirens? You did mention (today) his potential to do future harm, as I posted his potential to reform. Ok, I'll play.... I'll rise above the "you haven't answered my question, so why should I answer yours?" because I value our spats and enjoy our scribed jousting.....to answer, I honestly don't know, I don't think I've ever been placed in that position.. If I had placed someone in a place of such responsibility, I would be trusting, until proven otherwise. But there are ways around such matters...offers of help such as counselling and anger management.... obviously all confidential and private....but there is a way forward. It can happen. I didn't mean to duck out of anything, maybe I was careless with something I wrote, if so I apologise, hopefully I've now clarified. In reality employers have a duty of care. If I had to make a decision based on what I know about B*****, right now, I wouldn't be able to employ him, if nothing else due to my duty of care for other staff. If this Barnsley thing is something other than what the media are portraying it as then I may well reconsider, but nobody is going to talk openly about that whilst there's a hearing scheduled.

BRFC 2021: when you're really happy to see @drfaustus back on the Guzzler, then you realise it's you he's writing about in his first post back. Sickening.
You win, Grant, although I am sincerely glad to hear from you.
B*****'s bully boys are the real victors of course.
I give up, Jeff and Ian; good luck with the Guzzler.
B***** Rovers have won, and I won't say this again. All three generations of our family will not support Rovers under B*****. Joey B***** B***** is unfit to manage Bristol Rovers. Goodnight.

But there are ways around such matters...offers of help such as counselling and anger management.... obviously all confidential and private....but there is a way forward. It can happen. Maybe I can offer a slightly different angle. It seems you are taking the line I described in my earlier post when I said that when Rovers decide to do something, thinking they are showing loyalty, fans go out of their way to find reasons to justify that decision. The point TWD is making may well be valid and if an incident did occur where a young player or opposing staff member were attacked there could be legal repercussions for Rovers because it's happened before. Are Rovers a professional Football Club or a Counselling and Rehabilitation business ? If we are a professional football club then we should be carefully weighing up all aspects of a candidate before appointing him as manager. If we did the research and decided that JB's management abilities were so outstanding that they far outweighed his dangerous character defects, and it was worth the cost of putting in safeguards to mitigate the chances of him attacking someone again then, in that respect, all well and good. But if something happened and we relied on the defence of "he seemed a reformed character and he promised us he would stay out of trouble" I don't think it would be enough. You say ways around the problem "can happen" to which many loyal fans would agree and they would add "of course Rovers wouldn't have dived into this appointment without thinking of the possible consequences". But what is our track record like when it comes to diving in without thinking ? And how do you square up Wael's claim that the club's managerial search explored every option with Martyn Starnes' saying "It all started with Wael being tipped off that Joey would be interested in our job". I share wmgas's opinion that being "starstruck" was the main reason for this decision along with his reasonable record at Fleetwood helping to justify it. But claiming that simply being at Rovers is going to bring about a complete character change and that he is the right man to carry on with "the philosophy" and bring Rovers "kicking and screaming into the 21st century" (heard that before ?) is IMO pie in the sky. Pie in the sky? ... but not impossible. Potential is there for everyone to better themselves, given opportunity. One thing about most Rovers fans is we need alot of faith. Faithful and true....sung it alot on various platforms.... maybe I'm singing it here again. Earl starstruck? Starnes comments? Yep, that might be true what you post. It doesn't negate each other....they both might be true, they both might not be relevant if JAB gets the team playing to a reasonable standard. Again, it's potential. The club do have a duty of care to it's employees. I've tried to highlight that in covert ways the club can help, and continue to help JAB and others with their demons.....I genuinely believe taken out his peer group, there is potential for JAB to reform. Potential. Potential for us to thrive to as a club. Potential for us to stay up. Potential for us to formulate a plan to challenge for promotion. Potential to claim promotion. Potential to sustain championship football. Why is that so pie in the sky? Many other clubs continue to do it with similar sized fanbase... We all have potential, it's just exerting that rather than ongoing nature/nurture debate, which is important too, but a bit wood for the trees imo,

My comments on this little site weren't aimed at anyone in particular, just pointing out that the prevailing attitude on here appears to be anti for the sake of it. I'm sure if you ask nicely, the moderator who doesn't follow Rovers any more will let you back. As for B*****, not who I would want as manager, but he's what we have now and like surely every Rovers supporter, I want us to win every game while he's here

In the military you salute the rank,not the man. You may or may not like the person,but their rank must be respected. I think this way of looking at the JB appointment not only healthy for his harshest critics,but also for Rovers.

Facebook has 'marginalised' me yet again... though it may be a hacker with a grudge, who doesn't want to read my criticisms of Zuckerberg. Or, heaven forbid just a 'friend' who is sick of seeing the drivel I post. Anyway, for the record, I'm pleased to see you back on this superior message board, and unsurprisingly, agree with every word you say. Who is the deleted poster anyway? (Oh, I think I might have guessed) #UTG

He used to be in the media all the time but we now get an occasional letter, with no detail. We now look to be heading backwards under his stewardship. I, for one, am sick of potential never being fulfilled, not even close

I, for one, am sick of potential never being fulfilled, not even close Yes I empathise, Kp. Many years of unfulfilled promises. And to some certain extent, I agree. Especially about the letter with no detail. I try to be positive about such issues, understand if not. UWE I'm not so sure about.... just because I am not privy to the details, there was some suggestions at the time we would own the pitch but not all of the surroundings so could end up a Bolton case (as those details were in headlines around that time).. But it doesn't take away what my post projects. There is potential, however untapped it might be..

There is something about overseas owners and being initially proactive on social media, Tony Fernandes at QPR was a classic example, even down to appointing a celebrity manager in Harry Redknapp it's as if something is missing in their lives and they need the fix. Fernandes has had massive drama to deal with away from football and has backed off from one on one tweets with QPR fans. Ours has also backed off from one on one tweets with fans but has found a new toy in Instagram which embarrassingly if you view it is like a teenagers Panini sticker album. As for the UWE stadium from the start, a total falsehood fabricated by the family letting all of us down by dragging out the saga for 18 months. What is the future and where does the agreed yet to be tapped potential of the club go from here losing £5 million a year.

No one is going to want lose that kind of money in perpetuity.

I know in all sports that teams and individuals are always trying to find that extra 5%, trying to keep ahead of the Joneses, and that the psychological aspect is important: being focused; strong mentally as well as physically; having a positive mental attitude; having motivational speakers, players who have been there and done it (Andy Rammell this week); watching motivational videos; relaxation and breathing techniques, visualising being in the moment, in the winning place. But I wonder whether there is a point where you've gone too far, at the expense of the most important part - the sport you are playing. Here are some Bristol Post articles and interviews with JB's. With the first I've copied and pasted some of the text (there is far too much to paste it all), but the whole article should be read to give context. Friday 09/04/2021 - www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/joey-B*****-bristol-rovers-secret-5281904"I’ve always been influenced by great coaches and great coaching dynasties; Bill Parcells, Tom Coughlin, Bill Belichick etc. I’m not going to be the best version of me if I just do football. We can’t run them (the players) on the pitch because we physically can’t do the sessions from a technical and tactical perspective because of time constraints. So you’re delving into other places. You want to affect them as human beings. Our job is helping them to become better people, because if they are going to become better people there’s a chance they’re going to become better players. Sometimes football has to be a sanctuary from the outside world. A place where young men can come for lots of reasons to help them in their lives; from a mental health perspective, from a spiritual perspective, from a financial perspective.” ... The concepts of grounding ceremony are drawn from Pagan tradition and, so the theory goes, by removing your shoes and standing barefoot on the ground allows negative energy to leave your body while also absorbing positive energy from your chosen sacred space. That is, in the case of Rovers, the Memorial Stadium pitch, stands and all the history within the land, as B*****, his staff and the squad removed their boots to soak up the energy. It’s probably easier if the man in charge is left to explain. “The theory behind it is, the earth is a huge ball of molten lava spinning around the sun which is emitting electrical and heat pulses,” he said, with absolute sincerity and conviction. The earth gets struck by lightning multiple times a day and absorbs positive and negative electrons and because of our bodies, we’re mainly water, and the moon affects tides and it’s logical to think the moon affects us. So if you keep your shoes on, you’ve got rubber in the bottom of your soles. But obviously we’re made, developed over the evolutionary process, to walk bare-footed; that’s why we have hard skin on the bottom of our feet. If we walk on beaches or grass, the positive and negative electrons in your body are able to escape via the bottom of your feet and you recharge with positive electrons. Which makes sense to me. If the earth is constantly struck by the sun and these invisible forces of gravity and things we are unaware of." Rovers trained at the Mem on Friday morning where another grounding ceremony was conducted before they hit the M4 bound for Northamptonshire. “The sacred space is the key. The Greeks believed in chronos – which is clock time – and kairos – which is significant time. If you are member of a tribe and you got initiated into a sacred space, it was the ability for time and space to alter from normality,” he added. “Most people travel through life operating in a normal time and space (chronos). You can think about when you go out with your friends and family, or you go on holiday, or when you’re together with people that you love, Christmas; time and space seems to move quicker (kairos)."

It's a joke surely?
I read the latest self absorbed rubbish from B***** as far as him saying about making players 'better people'.
Who the Hell is he, of all people, to talk in those terms.
Beyond parody.
As for being influenced by great coaches, the bloke's more likely to take inspiration from Kimbo Slice than from Lombardi.
