Looking ahead to next season - and totally ignoring whoever comes down from League 1, and those sides who miss out on promotion - Rovers will have an almighty task to rise from this shambles and get anywhere near automatic promotion.Just look below us at the teams likely to be joining us;Wrexham - worldwide famous owners with deep pockets, built a strong and committed side who held their own against top championship sides in the FA Cup and are blowing their league away scoring over 100 goals already. Gates of over 10,000 in a 3 sides ground with a 4th set to take them to 15,000 plus gates. Great Manager in Phil Parkinson with massive experience and a great CV at league 1 / 2 levelNotts County - massive history, fantastic ground, hot on Wrexhams tails with over 100 goals and 1 striker with 39 to his name- over 16,000 in their ground yesterday- young coach but clearly knows his stuffChesterfield - arch rivals of ours, on a great run, gave West Brom a run for their money in the FA Cup and now getting gates of over 9,000, solid experienced manager in Paul Cook who also knows Leagues 1 and 2 inside out.Barnet and Woking also not far away who have graced the EFL before.None of those sides play a lone striker, but have cohesive,well organised sides who all fight for the cause and play entertaining football.The football Schofield plays will be destroyed by all these sides- he has to go and go NOW
Well we saw yesterday that promotion from a poor Division is possible for a poor Team *So if we "get our act together" , or DS gets his own Players , or The Club loosens the purse strings or a combination of those 3 we too could put one over on those Teams quoted* I thought Northampton were fairly good but have been told by several people (8 or 10) that they were poor and had we not gifted them 2 goals it would have been 0 0 so I guess I was wrong

Most of our problem is that we just don’t get enough of the eleven players on the pitch playing well. The formation isn’t helping and the rigid way the manager wants to play no matter what. It’s good he believes in something but with the players he has it isn’t going to work. He should be thinking what he can do to retain his job. He needs a run of good results to do that.
What is the closest pub to the training ground, because if Paul Cook became manager of Rovers he’d be doing a lot of business in there
