I reckon he'll stick with Rovers though, if he does get an offer from Norwich. I would guess a lot would depend on what the Billionaire told him, new ground, more funds etc. Norwich are a good club with ambitions and money to spend, would be a big decision to turn it down. Oh I should say ..... if offered Edited March 11, 2017 by 1960maaan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They`re only as high as they are because of Taylor and he knows next season will probably be a car crash. His stock is pretty high at the moment but will only go down IMO.

Wanderingred Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 Agree that Rovers have probably hit a glass ceiling now. Top half league 1 is just about their limit. If Norwich want dopey theyll get him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Norwich want dopey theyll get him. Don't count your chickens. They've got a relatively easy run in. Could easily attain another 20 odd points and get promoted via the play offs. Can we buy some more of their players to stop this happening? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hello Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 I dont think we will make the play offs but we have a decent outside chance. We dont have to play anyone above us and we have 3 of the bottom 5 in our next 3 games. Either we will win these easily and keep up the momentum, or the likes of Coventry and Chesterfield will make it difficult and we will drop points that will put us out of the running Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we have a Bristol Derby in the Championship next season then all things considered I won't complain (much).

Begrudgingly, I find myself agreeing with you. He's done wonders there and I get the feeling he really believes he can take them places. All depends on how much Wally supports him.

I guess they stagnated and a change was needed currently we are playing at a not fit for purpose stadium and IF real progress is annonced on this in the summer before the start of next season DC MIGHT decide to stay and hope to continue the upward trend we are in at the moment as their is still room to improve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You keep telling yourself that and living a pipe dream that we will always be in your shadow, when we are now a far better run club then you are. Wally as you call him has made no random predictions that we will be in the premiership within X amount of time or, like your manager saying you could be playing in European football within 5 years.Or saying he will spend millions on £9million strikers...Unlike your owner he just gets on with his job without making himself look like damm tool..! "The Wally" has done more to the infrastructure of our club in his first year then pantysdown did for your club within his first decade, regardless of money the latter spent! The Ashton gate rebuild has only happened in the last year and is his only legacy. As for Taylor being the reason where we are hahahaha... He was important to us,but was far from being the reason why we are where we are! Nine unbeaten since he has left and scoring goals after DC making adjustments.Still very much in the hunt for the playoffs with planning for next season well underway.

What's your self proclaimed billionaire done for you? How much money has he spent? What's he genuinely done apart from making himself look stupid with the whole Taylor saga, as like your whole club did. As for managers saying stupid stuff, your moronic manager said Taylor would only be leaving for £10m+ You might be 9 unbeaten, how much of the games have you won?
