This thread has gone quiet. After over a hundred pages Admittedly he hasn't done anything notably embarrassing in weeks now, but form is temporary and all that No need to thank me for the little reminder - you're welcome! little point going on about it. disagree - it's important to keep perspective

Hopefully we go up and hopefully he f**ks off agree. And very nicely expressed too!

I guess opinions here on Barton differ a great deal. I also think our opinions are formed by what we read in the press. Many sides to a story but from an exercise to attract attention, only the click bait ones tend to be published. For me he has dome an excellent job and Rovers have kept fans interested this season. Many nice natured managers have come to the club in recent years and acheived nil.

Not sure dragging a sad thread to the top (which I just have) is really ideal behaviour either.
You do know that the team thatvwe support and you claim to follow got promoted today?
UTFG 🏴☠️⚽️👍

It seems that admin has decided to sink this thread, after 106 pages
Which sweeps the subjects covered under the carpet IMO

Let's see what happens next.

Which sweeps the subjects covered under the carpet IMO Not really NAPAB, just allowing people to enjoy the moment. Anchor will be removed after a couple of days.

Let's see what happens next. those are pretty decent stats. But stats don’t tell the whole or true story, you needed to experience just how irrepressible the team form was throughout the fixtures in March and April, and these last couple of games creating and scoring at will just when it mattered. Very difficult now to separate the “unfit to manage rovers” in the thread header because, as Jeff Stelling put it today “often in the past controversial character on and off the pitch” for a truly amazing bounce back season on the pitch at our Rovers. He Brought the right players in, gelled them into a superb unit for second half of the season - 19th New Years Day? After unsuccessfully flirting with back three and wing back early on, having to deal with injury issues and unfit players, trying a myriad of options for the right blend, worked out which defenders and other players were letting him down, used January window brilliantly, since end of January the set up, formation, style of football has been spot on, but, more importantly, the players have been set up perfectly in the psychology side of the game, confident, hungry, industrious - about 3 months ago I compared them to velociraptors, and took stick for it, but the way they have worked together to hunt teams down, hunt down what they needed, is like a pack of hardworking hungry dinosaurs, focussed and merciless. after being in the past the controversial character on and off the pitch, and the chequered start to Joey’s managerial career, this is some sort of redemption for him, especially if he can keep controversy as something in his past, he has demonstrated first through his adversity to battle through in the last 14 months, and lately how his vision and strategies have come to such brilliant success, that he is a promising up and coming young manager with hopefully a fine new career ahead of him. Wether you like it it not, Joey fan boy or Joey hater, we each are part of the glow of this moment of redemption and these fantastic, history in the making and perfectly positive headlines our club have enjoyed thisweekend, we each should receive this moment with gratitude, and every Gashead should acknowledge the role played in it by our manager. He has proved a point on the pitch. And delivered one of our best days in the headlines and one of the best story’s our club has ever enjoyed.

I didn't realise you could "un-anchor a thread". Very good call. I would probably have anchored this a few weeks ago if I'd known. I'm OK letting it fall until the play-off final has been played. I've not touched this thread since the end of March.

The Gas have just been promoted and people should be allowed to celebrate. As Jeff has said it can be un-anchored in a few days. Let people enjoy success, it doesn't come along very often!
