Given the choice and if the situation arose, i'd take John Kear in a heartbeat.

I think Justin has done enough for his position not yet to be under threat, and should be given the chance to turn things around, although I feel both of those coaches would get the team performing more consistently towards the top of their game.

I still think a shake up is required. Due to his length of tenure, IMO Morgan has got comfortable at the club and the players have also got comfortable with him. If we were to change the coach this would be a good thing as everybody will have to step up there game.

This is not intended as trolling, but an observation. Morgan has done an outstanding job at Rovers. His use in particular of overseas players has been excellent and particularly in the early days his tactical insight to work over opposition teams was really impressive. He's made some hard calls to offload players with time left on their contracts. I think he's not seen eye to eye with the board on a few key issues, though, being the retention of Cooke after their first big fall-out, but more recently the Mason debacle. IMO Mason was a signing driven not by the coach but by the commercial department, and Morgan gives the impression he likes to be in absolute control of his squad. This season his overt energy and commitment seem a notch or two lower than in previous seasons. I think the two points are linked. To use a Peter Sharpism, he seems to have lost his mojo a bit. If I were a Rovers fan, I'd be disappointed, but reasonably ambivalent about losing Morgan as he's probably ready for a new challenge, but would be more concerned about who, if anyone, could end up following him playerwise. Given that his only 2 signings so far are 2011's most cited scapegoats, Netherton and Hodgson, maybe he's going early on an Agent Morgan mission for Wigan/Cas/whoever he's linked with next.

i think you have it spot on!! can't see him moving on, as he is not setting the world alight this season, it's hard to think who would want him

personally think thats a load of Edit-RW, you seem much more credible when your talking about balance sheets than you ever do when you try the rugby theories
