tinman-is-god Posted June 9, 2005 Report Share Posted June 9, 2005 I can see them making the Top 10, but not quite going up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Red Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Mid table. But, hopefully, they'll go down. What a joy it would be to see them exit the football league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pewsham Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Bottom half of the table - maybe 7 or 8 points above the drop. They have been very bad for a while now, and have done nothing recently to suggest to their fans any improvement next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC_Dan Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 I think they'll go up.I've said this every year since they were relegated and I've been wrong every time. I see no reason to change now! In all seriousness though, Ian Atkins is a good manager for the league they're in and it doesn't take much to put together a team good enough to beat most of the sides down there.

Portishead Puffin Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 It's strange that even 5 years ago I would have been able to give a reasonable guess at the level of talent at their club. Now I would struggle to name more than three players in addition to Agogo! Anytime I hear someone mentioned as having a good couple of games Atkins seems to fob them off to some non-league club. I'm assuming that after his talk of clearouts at the end of the season that Atkins will be bringing in some new players. So working on the theory that he knows that division, they are able to offer good terms for that level and they get some luck from the start of the season I would think they would be disappointed with anything less than playoffs.

Allegedly (to keep the legal fleagle-beagle-eagles happy), Mr Dunford asked Ian Atkins how much it would take to pay off his contract. When he was told, 'the whole lot', any chance of Atkins leaving in the off-season was eliminated. Were Rovers to be in the mire at the ned of October/early November, Mr Dunford may have his hand forced and relieve Atkins of his tenure. The question then needs to be asked, who do the board appoint? Their recent record of managerial appointments leaves something to be desired of course!Anyway, in answer - 10th. This will be hailed by those of a prozac persuassion amongst our fanbase, as 'a great improvement', or 'prove that the club is moving forward'. Those of us with a more cynical disposition will see this abject failure as nothing short of a disgrace.Now where is my morphine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke_Ciderhead Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 Since the year they finished second bottom to Halifax, they have gradually improved year on year. They also had a half decent finish to last season which hauled them up into the top half.It wont be pretty but Pratkins could guide them to the playoffs if he signs a couple more experienced hoofball journeymen. I cant see them actually being promoted this time around though. They'll get there eventually, but on paper there are easily four better teams in that division than the Sags.By the time they come up, we'll be long gone anyway.

Guest MaloneFM Posted June 10, 2005 Report Share Posted June 10, 2005 I have no wish to see the Gas go down and out of business. Its a joy on saturdays plodding home after a dire 0-0 to hear...'somebody crap 2 Rovers 0'. You think of all the bright bright red haired mianics such as the medical man of mirth going all that way for bugger all.Just below mid table. Atkins out. Martin Dobson back in. I have respect for a manager that does not travel on the team bus but goes to the game in the car with the wife.Fair play Dobbo! Malcolm Allison as assisiatant so we can do drinkies.

Some try to deny it now but the ugly chants to oust skeletor were there for all to hear on local T.V. In fact for fans with such an overwhelmingly, if fabricated, 'friendly' profile in the media, they seem to collectively vent their spleen on their manager with alarming regularity. They're going nowhere with Atkins, about 15th next season. Then surely it will finally be Dungturd's head they are calling for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
