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. Barton 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.

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.

Joey B***** bafflingly claims 'genetically modified' Lionel Messi should have Asterix next to his incredible achievements due to the treatment the World Cup winner received as child for rare growth hormone deficiency...by Ash Rose.Joey B***** has launched his latest tirade in the direction of Lionel Messi, by claiming that there should be an asterisk next to his name due to the treatment he received as a child to combat a rare growth hormone deficiency. Messi is regarded as one of the greatest footballers to ever play the game, having won eight Ballon d'Ors and dominated the sport from over a decade. His exploits at Barcelona saw him become the club's greatest-ever player and record goal-scorer, while he also led Argentina to World Cup glory in 2022 - their first major tournament win since Diego Maradona's 1986 side. i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/05/03/23/84440957-13381213-image-a-29_1714774091750.jpgHowever, according to former Premier League midfielder B*****, Messi's name should carry an 'asterisk' because he believes the icon was 'genetically modified' thanks to the treatment he was given early in his footballing career. Speaking on his Common Sense Podcast, the outspoken B***** said of the Argentine: 'He's asterisk though for me,' before going on to explain to his co-hosts. 'There's a big asterisk on Messi's name for me, because he got on the steroids and all that at young age to mess with his growth. 'Messi's been genetically modified at a young age, so there has to be an asterisk next to his name. 'He was given growth hormone and all kinds of medications to help him grow. As far as I know no one else has done that. So, if you'd have left him grow naturally and left him on the roast dinners - or whatever - he wouldn't have been big enough to end up what he's ended up doing.' Messi was diagnosed with the growth hormone deficiency when he was 10 years old and it threatened to derail his already obvious path to football stardom. The treatment cost $1000 a month, which for two years was paid for by Messi's father's health insurance, but was then unable to continue to fund the what his son needed. The story then goes that Messi's father got a job in the city and eventually arranged a trial for his son at Barcelona, where their medical team would help and the rest his football history. From that, B***** has deduced that the 36-year-old has been given a head start in his ability and therefore there should be a question mark against his name. i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2024/05/03/23/84440257-13381213-Messi_s_family_did_everything_they_could_to_make_sure_he_could_f-a-18_1714775165610.jpgMessi's family did everything they could to make sure he could fulfil his potential as a star Messi isn't the first name that B***** has spoken out against in recent months, with the former Man City and Newcastle player taking particular aim at female footballers with a series of outlandish comments. He accused the BBC's Alex Scott of putting Football Focus 'in the ground' as presenter, and also took a number shots at pundit Eni Aluko, questioning her ability to speak on men's football among several sexist remarks and attacks on the former England footballer. There was also sexist comments made in the direction of England's Lionesses and in particular Mary Earps, who he claimed he could score 1000 out of 1000 penalties against the national team's number one.

In fairness, the other two are bats**t crazy and in some cases speak dangerous nonsense, but at least they won't put you in hospital.
