Numero Uno Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 If Paul Tisdale had come in and said: Previous Manager would have been struck off if he was a Doctor Medical Staff all getting bombed out at the end of the season Players not even trained properly I have a load of unprofessional, tobacco chewing cluckers in my squad (although I might smoke a nice fat Cuban later and stub it out in an U23 player's eyes) I have single figures players worth keeping I can't turn water into wine It would have been easier on myself if I never took this job etc etc. he would have been destroyed by the Tent Polers. Instead, because it's Joey Barton saying it, this is exactly what has been needed apparently. The interesting thing for me is what Wally does if Barton goes down for say 9 months in the Summer, relatively short term but slightly too long ideally to bring in a Temporary Manager (bear in mind no time off for good behaviour on sentences under a year). 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He may as well be temporary..... They struggle to get one appointment right (including him) so they've got absolutely no hope of appointing someone on a temporary basis.

Worst case scenario is we get relegated next season and they get promoted, they have a better opening game than us in the 22/23 season. Whats that, about 500 days? From and including: Wednesday, 21 April 2021 To, but not including Wednesday, 10 August 2022 Result: 476 days It is 476 days from the start date to the end date, but not including the end date. Or 1 year, 3 months, 20 days excluding the end date. Or 15 months, 20 days excluding the end date. So that'll be 7953 days, IF we were to get relegated and they went up AND got a better result than us on the opening day.

Using your maths, that could be 841 -365 = 476? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough, Tisdale got sacked for saying he couldn’t pull a rabbit out of a hat in regards to making their strikers better. Barton has gone in with the big I am despite achieving nothing as a manager, and tbh nothing as a player as well. The ego on him is unreal. He’s gonna really struggle to get another job off the back of this. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinmans Love Child Posted April 21, 2021 Report Share Posted April 21, 2021 What I find odd is that on GasChat not one person is calling out Wael. As they say, the fish rots from the head, and although he’s chucked some money into pay debts and buy a “training ground” the culture at Rovers from top to bottom is clearly a mess and culture stems from the leaders of your organisation. Players being unprofessional, managers being unprofessional, terrible stadium, terrible recruitment, they are an utter utter shambles. What a shame 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s gonna really struggle to get another job off the back of this. Indeed. Take Barton's mouth and persona away and what are you left with? He's living off his celebrity status there, and absolutely nothing else. If he was "Joe Bloggs", an up and coming coach, plucked from some outpost, the sags wouldn't tolerate another minute of him. But because he gives them more profile than they've had in decades, he can stay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry if I've missed it explained but off to work soon. Anyone got an inkling as to what "double figures" means in his statement? Those that have put on a lot of weight during lock down? Those with an IQ higher than 9? Those can can count to ten on the fingers of one hand? Those that can actually count to ten? What does it mean?

I know how much you’ve been enjoying the last couple of weeks, Fordy, but you might be getting a bit carried away there! We could be in the same league in August next year. Our alphabetic superiority might buy us an extra 7 days. But not 800 On balance though, the chances of that happening must be less than those of us starting 22-23 four divisions apart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very harsh words aired publically. But ultimately is he wrong with those opinions? Basically he is saying that some of the players are lucky to be paid for playing football. I can’t disagree with that personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
