Dean Saunders got the side playing some awful boring football. No thanks
god forbid the crab man SOD ever comes back,theres a man what never had a plan b,and didn't have a clue how to stop a losing run,rovers know,so did Bristol and bournemouth
The football under Saunders was not pretty to watch but he built a team with bottle. We could do with some of that now.
saunders took over a team in decline and after probably our worst start to a season in our recent history,it was virtually an impossible task to keep us up,but after that and with the help of pre season assembled a team to get us promoted back to the championship,his only fault he never seen the job thro just like he did at Wrexham but in both occasions ambition for a bigger club was the lure he couldn't resist,and if we all had the same chance we would do the same,SOD took over a team that had just had two promotions built by d,penny and m walker in fairness finished the job off but his ability to end losing runs is well documented and his stubbornness to change his ideas led to his downfall both here and at Bristol,i have said on here before the job he as now is well suited and he will do well
I didn't make any comparisons with managers past or present in my op, but admit to 'dangling the bait'.Don't mention SO'D & PD in the same breath, it's like comparing Zidane with Furman. I've supported Rovers from McMenemy to Dickov & will always consider Sean's reign to be the halcyon days, only Penney's time comes anywhere close. Anyone who disagrees doesn't know their arse from their elbow, so they can huff & puff all they like because their 'opinions' aren't worth a fig, they only go to emphasise how little they know about football, life, people, the universe. In fact I'd go as far as to say that I feel their arguments to the contrary have just been totally eclipsed.
