Almost unnoticed, laid their season’s foundations on a bed of sand to near guarantee failure. Tremendous effort. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s ironic that the Gash’s manager could very well be peeling the spuds that make the past-their-sell-by-date crisps they’ll be selling in the club tuck shop next season. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted April 17, 2021 Report Share Posted April 17, 2021 1 hour ago, Bristol Rob said: Statistically, who has been the best Rovers manager this season? Obviously, Joey is in the lead at the moment (for me) as he looks like the one who is going to put the lid on the coffin and see the job through. But haven't all their managers been given a similar number of games, so a points per game average will probably tell quite an interesting story. Rob. I have ever so happily compiled the stats for you. Don’t forget, they’ve technically had 4 persons in charge this season, with Widdrington letting himself do it for a couple of games. Garbles. Pl 11 W3 D3 L5 F11 A19 PPG 1.09. Pisdale. Pl 15 W3 D3 L9 F13 A24 PPG 0.8. Widdles. Pl 2 W1 D0 L1 F3 A3 PPG 1.5. Barfton. Pl 14 W3 D2 L9 F13 A19 PPG 0.79. So, Barton currently has the worst points per game record. If they’d have stuck with Garner and his PPG they’d be 19th. 3 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they’d have stuck with Garner and his PPG they’d be 19th. I love that fact that (not only have you done the maths), but you have extrapolated the numbers to give a view of where they could be. I haven't see them play, but I thought the appointment of Garner would be good for them in the long term. Someone with exceptional coaching references who was new to the first team managers role, but with his upper end coaching career, he could have probably made some realistic phone calls to have got them loan signings that would have helped. But then, they went short term. I remember and interview with Ray Palour years ago when Wenger was appointed at Arsenal and most of the player took the attitude of, 'Right Gaffer, show us your medals!' Which he clearly didn't have (see Graham Taylor as a UK equivalent). Took a few transer windows and the signing of potential rather than proven for him to make his mark. Remeber that they signed Henry as a winger, and Wenger turned him in to a reasonable striker. That all said, it's the Fewers. So eff 'em. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midlands Robin Posted April 17, 2021 Report Share Posted April 17, 2021 So, apart from a two game caretaker throwing the stats off a little, basically each new managerial appointment has made things worse. By my reckoning, even if they had stuck by Tisdale they would have been at least 1 win and may be about 4 points better off than they are now.

For decades they’ve bumbled along with most people unaware of their existence but it’s not just us, Barnet and Wycombe fans who think they’re massive ****ts these days. Well done Graham, well done Garner, well done ‘Tis’ and well done Wally. Excellent work 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Do The Dziekanowski Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 The Saggers and Swindle look out of it, got to gain a point a game on others to be safe and looking at both their runs in I doubt that’s doable.

What a shame... Yeah there's no way they are going to manage it. I think Wimbledon are safe now and so they'll need to catch Wigan (and hope Northampton & Rochdale don't win!), which looks beyond any possibility. Wigan's final games: Shrewsbury, Burton, Hull and Swindon Gash's final games: MK Dons, Portsmouth, Crewe and Blackpool Wigan will not be playing anybody that needs points, Hull will be up by then, Swindon will be down. Whereas Portsmouth and Blackpool are both pushing for play off spots. The 15ers might get a shock win against one of them, but there's no way they'll beat both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanterne Rouge Posted April 18, 2021 Report Share Posted April 18, 2021 Sagchat at it`s finest: A comment appears from a poster on there says he`s signed up since they appointed Barton as he is interested in following his career and makes some points about hoping he can get them back up next season. The next post reads `**** off 100% ted ******* troll` The next post to that: `he`s an Everton fan mate` Second poster `he could still be a Ted troll` Their levels of paranoia (and stupidity) know no bounds. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
