Ron Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Just seen this pop up on twitter, thought it was a wind-up to be honest, very good manager, did brilliantly at Doncaster, very well at Darlington and the one off-season at Oldham. Far better than I would have expected them to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still hope he takes them down to league 2 Decent appointment, until the Rovers board put some money into the club they will never do much. But in all honesty who cares?

beaverface Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Now, THAT'S a real Conference manager! He'll fit in rather well as I already can't stand the guy after that elbow that broke Junior Bent's cheekbone. Dirty Bastard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CiderArmyy Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Awful manager with Oldham, the rest not too bad. That should see them out of the relegation zone now. But I still believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nebristolred Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Shows the gulf between the two clubs really. We wanted a new manager and we got Coppell. They want one and they get... Penney . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Possibly not the brightest thing to say considering the mess Coppell left us in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nebristolred Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 How is that not bright to say? His reputation is massive compared to Penney's. The fact that he left us in a mess is irrelevant, given that the situation that occurred was a very rare one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dolman Pragmatist Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 When he was a player, Dave Penney was responsible for one of the worst tackles I've seen on a City player, when he attempted to remove Junior Bent's legs at the knee in a match at the old Oxford United stadium in the mid-90s. I've loathed the man ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've loathed the man ever since. Right incident, wrong part of the body.... I think he broke Juniors cheekbone in three places with a deliberate elbow (he actually looked to see where he was before swinging it, if i recall correctly!). The loathing is still very valid, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've loathed the man ever since. It was a deliberate elbow which smashed Juniors face to bits! In any other walk of life, he would and should have been up on a GBH charge. The bloke is a nasty piece of work and he now seems to have found a suitable home for himself! It will not be hard to dislike this one! I would LOVE IT, LOVE IT if takes them down!

RedM Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Did he get our Junior Bent twice or something, people seem confused about a 2 footed challenge or a elbow in the face? I remember him getting elbowed but not who by. I guess it was a long time ago in footballing terms, he could be a very different person now. I wish both he and the Gas whatever they deserve.

Donald Posted January 10, 2011 Report Share Posted January 10, 2011 Horrible barsteward as a player. Did well at Donny, but little since then. To be honest, he'll probably take them down due to the squad they have, bar Hoskins and Lines they are utter garbage. BUT he is good enough in the transfer market too take them straight back up.
