One of the funniest things about all this is that the majority of those ******* dumbos have decided they’re going to hero worship Barton despite absolutely slating him in the past. The guy who has taken them down without a whimper and now there’s nothing they can do to save face without looking like the massive hypocrites we know they are Loving the fact that there’s plenty of hilarity on Social Media from fans of other clubs who, no doubt, would’ve had no real opinion about the Gas until they gave a job to that thug. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how the scum, overdrawn and quartered are hanging on Jaily Birdon’s every word. Hilarious that they are all putting those three letters at the end of their posts (no point in me writing it as the OTIB filter corrects it to what it should be) when the Gash have literally just done the opposite of “Up”. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s taken them from 2 points above the relegation zone to 10 points below it. A miraculous 12 point swing in 16 games. Glorious. “But it wasn’t me guv” More impressive is the job JFH has done with Burton, and the Wigan U23 team and the Wombles respective forms. Given that Swindon were above the line, were they claiming the league title at that point? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hampshire Red Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Reading the Gerry Gow book today, listening to the further demise of the Gas, it brought tears to hear what a great man he was off the field but how he, as a true Red from 17/18 yrs old would have done the same as Tins here; taking sport to what it should be - competitive, fun, hard but caring, acknowledging winners & losers etc. The early chapters also remind me how similar the club was then to today; one great owner derided by some deluded fans (they used to write in to the B.Eve Post complaining about spending money on youth, the ground etc; whereas now they jump to keyboards) managers always disliked by a minority of 'fans' (even Alan Dicks was under pressure most seasons, castigated for taking risks in bringing in midfielders; - Gow/Massengo etc), supporters who always thought we should be in a higher place. If Tins met a ex Rovers player who was a decent guy off the field, I'm sure both would be respectful but right now, today, we can forget about the Luton game, forget about ESL, EPL, UEFA, Euros in 48 days time, FFP, Carling Cup, etc etc ..... and just rejoice in the fact the gas are having yet another horrible day and thinking of things to do next year other than joining their terrible forum to complain about wealthy, successful neighbours Top man Tins and to all on here who rejoice in their abject failure 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
