His recruitment is a complete joke as well, Gale, Reynolds, Evans and Macintosh are an expensive embarrassment of signings. Add that to a finished Houghton and an absolutely awful Griffin and we are a literal shambles. The season was over before it began and a big clear out is needed. Start by sending Hodgson home and giving Ellis a chance to show how you get something out of one of SL's most expensive squads.
Would they not put purtill in charge if he's been there longer?

Exactly, what with our financial woes and their tremendous news owing their ground the city is Rovers. It's tough to take but let them enjoy their moment in the sun because they've waited a long time for it.
On the back of a memorable Derby win they surely will win many trophies after a near 40 year hiatus, We can only look on in jealousy.

Said it could be 20 years before we racked any silverware up again. Don't think we'll be troubling the judges again this year so we're 25% of the way there. I was unconvinced when Hodgson was recruited. I was even less convinced when he decided to bring Reynolds with him. And I'd have Sneyd over Gale every day of the year. I also think Mau is a very good player. Just hasn't had chance to show what he's all about in a pretty poor team.

We have the worst half back pair in SL and probably one of the most expensive. Add that to flogging a finished Houghton every week and our 6, 7 and 9 is the worst in the competition. There is no real surprise that we are as poor as we are and I can't imagine that AP has any answers or the appetite to carry on wasting his money.
THANK YOU Mr. PEARSON, FOR RIDDING US OF FCKWIT FUBAR, CEO TOOL AND THE STINKING UNCLE KATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY DON'T THE DOBBINS PLAY IN GREEN SHIRT, GREEN SHORTS AND GREEN SOCKS IN ORDER TO EXPRESS THEIR INFINITE ENVY OF EVERYTHING BLACK AND WHITE??

Sorry Griffin is not a good player.he is a very average plodder cant remember if its 4 years or five years at the club but he has had one decent season
Although not sure the fans have the patience for a couple of years.
Rovers today choose not to play 2 overseas players who have underperformed, we did to follow suit.
Stop talking crap, got the players, just no direction, if that’s down to the coach, senior players, poor dressing room etc, but playing the youngster’s isn’t the answer. We need something, someone, to fire this squad up
