Bit odd that he was employed with an ongoing case though wasn't it. I think my point is, with the Stendel case already ongoing, is this a new moral position on Wael's part, or does 'instant dismissal upon being found guilty' form part of B*****'s contract? I certainly agree that it was odd to take a chance with the case going on, past form, etc B***** must have been very convincing!I wouldn't have personally taken a chance. I would imagine that a normal football contract, like most employment contracts, would contain clauses related to behaviour etc., but then you never know with Rovers..... And Wael must have been very gullible, and weak. I respect people like Basel and Mango whose glasses are half full and the fact that they're really looking forward to the new season. Suspending B***** would have been the first tentative step by the Club to get people like me (maybe only a small minority) back 'on side'. Predictably, Wael blew it.

So get a small minority of fans back on side at a cost of £2m+ Wael's spent backing JB in the transfer market and also most blow any prospects of returning to L1 this season. One look at Gaschat/Facebook suggests that most Gasheads have already forgotten all about the trials and there only interest is result of the Mansfield game.

As long as B***** gets us back into League 1 he can carry on kicking his wife's head in whenever the likes....nice. There (sic) only interest? I think most decent Gasheads are better than that.

Who knew that if B***** was shown the door we would have to pay up the contracts of all of the recently signed players.

But that doesn’t make it right. UTG!

I used to think that Pop. Not so sure any more.

Gasheads have less and less influence over Brand Rovers. In fact I don't really know what being a gashead is in 2021 - do we care about the symoblism of a B***** at the club or is being a gashead just nodding your head to whatever Wael and co implement. Not sure.
If B***** is not a reformed character, determined by the judiciary at either of the upcoming court cases, then I don't really care that much if the club get promoted. If he is found not guilty, and not due to lack of evidence, then we should of course support him to support the club.

I have never felt so distant from the club I grew up with. I even didn’t go to an old boys do because of the in Joey we trust bit. Given the most recent charges, this has only made this worse for me. How did anyone come up with the 2m figure please ?

Don't take things so literally KP, I was just playing around with the person I was quoting who appeared to be suggesting that all of the money spent on recruitment would be lost. Of course that wouldn't be the case.

Remember what our support base said when Fleetwood appointed him, they got absolutely slated, so why should we apply double standards?

My question was, unless this is a new thing that Wael has just decided, then shouldn't B*****'s contract contain a clause that he's out the door if found guilty in the Stendel case? I agree that you would expect to see clauses relating to behaviour in contracts, but the Stendel incident had already happened. And even then, it's immediate, so the instant a guilty verdict, if that's the outcome, is handed down he's gone. Only at Rovers, unfortunately. Unless he appeals, as I sense we could be on dodgy ground, employment law wise, if we sacked him and then he won his appeal Just say we want to take the club in a different direction, like when sacking previous managers.

If it's true that Wael was in the dugout on Saturday wearing coaching apparel emblazoned with his initials then the prospect of a Brand Rovers which all true blue Bristolians can embrace is looking bleak. Something completely new is emerging which could be called the Wael & Joey brand or the Qadi-B***** brand but I reckon, once the press pick it up, we'll find the Rovers circus has become part of a soft talking hard hitting brand known as "Sweet & Sour Soccer".

Agreed Brizzleblue52. This poll is about reliable as a poll on Scottish independence, carried out by the SNP at a Nicola Sturgeon dinner party. You are only saying that because it's not yielding the outcome that you want. If it was swayed in favour of keeping B***** you would be proclaiming that 'The people have spoken' and those that haven't forgotten how to conduct themselves decently need to be quiet and suck it up.

Rovers average attendance. 😏

Rovers' average attendance last season I think was zero.
