We clearly have a squad (minus the new lads) who are deflated and not up for the fight. A bunch of wasters if you will. Nothing BG or any manager could do with this motley Crew. We now look to the summer & hope a huge rebuild can happen whilst shipping out as many of these pathetic excuses for footballers as possible. Except GC did with this 'bunch of wasters' They're not wasters - they all bust a gut in a GC system that wasn't pretty at times but worked. Our new manager said he had watched all our games and knew why we were where we were and wouldn't change it! He did, and the players cannot do it, and have lost confidence. This is coupled with the fatigue that comes with an injury ravaged squad and two games a week for what seems like three months solid has taken its toll. We will probably lose heavily on Saturday, but then have a full week and hopefully some players coming back. I just hope the coaches can get back to a system that works in that week |

The stats since Ipswich away (Coughlan saying his piece) really are telling, Yes they are . I see it as we’ve got a very average at best bunch of players and when you’ve got that if you’ve got a manager that sees those players fitting in to his style and formation and gets those players running through walls for each other then you can get a top six maybe even top 2 season out of them. If you’ve got a manager who doesn’t understand the strengths of the squad and tries to do things different to how things worked before and don’t motivate them to make it work then that average squad can very easily be relegated. We’ve seen both situations at Rovers over the years. Add to that all the unrest with everything that’s gone on the last few weeks and it’s not surprising the way it’s gone on the pitch. |

Yeah to try and change things when you haven't had a full week on the training ground to see what players are capable of is pretty poor. I still think we would have hit a rocky patch whether system we played as the amount of games plus injuries and suspensions have taken it's toll bit I didn't expect it to be this bad. |

I’ve never known a season where we look so promising all around to go downhill so fast, it’s actually quite depressing. 99/00? We've just started earlier. Very true but I think we had a better squad then so the all round feeling was that we’d do well. This season our players have won games with fight and desire and that’s just disappeared with GC going. |

They were up for the fight 3 weeks ago. Perhaps they just have no respect/confidence in the new manager? Probably no clue how he wants them to play, not helped by the fact he's not on the training ground. Yeah I mean it wasn’t going well before with Garner so now he’s doing things over the phone whilst dealing with something personal that’s obviously awful for him to deal with and probably taking up 99% of his thoughts it was never going to get better. The thing the board should do is say to him take off until the end of the season and in the mean time let Maher take control and make all of his own decisions, then if all being well and he wants to come back in the summer Garner will have the whole summer to concentrate on building whatever it is he wants to build and start a new season with a clean slate. Basically what we should have done in the first place. |

I think that’s a very well put opinion Socrates, I’m not going to lie as I’ve made my points very clear about GC and the way in which he set us up to play. It would seem that he was deploying those tactics as he was getting the best out of an average to poor bunch. It’s only now that I see it. Looks like I may of got GC wrong and I’m gutted. You certainly seem to know your onions my friend. |

It can still be turned around of course, but to date this really must be one of the worst starts for a new manager in gas history. Nobody seems to have won from this, it's not like GC is setting the world on fire at Mansfield either. I thought Dodson's would be worse but he actually won his 3rd game in charge before getting sacked after his 12th, although he started in August not December when we were at the time easy looking home win away from going 2nd. Can Garner beat Dodson's P12 W1 D2 L9 Pts 5 so far I make it P7 W0 D2 L5 Pts 2 |

Basically what we should have done in the first place. Exactly, if it.’s true that Garner is still dictating tactics (and the 4 at the back tonight sounds like he is) then I am staggered and it’s further proof that the owners couldn’t run a bloody bath. How can Maher possibly take training sessions for a guy he has barely worked with? The players must be watered right off especially with some having uncertain futures. I’m just wondering when this is going to be called a crisis. Can’t be far off... |

Well, if City lose that’s made the evening a tiny bit more sweeter. If we suffer it’s only right they should as well.

I wrongly assumed he'd just go back to GC's formation tonight not Garner's madness. |
