Keith Scott 289 Posted October 7, 2023 Get the feeling Rowe is Wagner out from that interview. All is not well in the camp. All the best. Big Keith Scott. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Google Bot 3,706 Posted October 7, 2023 Good honest interview, credit to him. I don't see it as digging the manager out, just telling the truths on where they are. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Hairy 4,205 Posted October 7, 2023 He sounds like he'd make a better manager than Wagner does 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creedence Clearwater Couto 1,468 Posted October 7, 2023 Interesting he said “lazy” moments.. someone’s taken a rollicking for the Cov equaliser. The meaning of “Stabbed in the back” is not the feeling he was trying to express, imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mello Yello 2,500 Posted October 7, 2023 I reckon interested eyes from the higher echelons of Football are already monitoring Jo Jo's progress - and if come January we don't look like we will make them play-offs....well, you know what's next..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,817 Posted October 7, 2023 I think he's still very grateful to Wagner for giving him his chance. None of you suggested he was up to it. Why make this nonsense up? 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarybubbles 2,147 Posted October 7, 2023 We should sell him in January for as much money as we can while his reputation is high. We get lots of cash, he gets a career at somewhere like Crystal Palace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worthy Nigelton 1,232 Posted October 7, 2023 People reading too much into this. He's just saying it as it is. As CCC said above, someone has been nailed for the equaliser in the dressing room for not doing their job. It's disappointing to concede late, but it is a draw away against last season's play off finalists, with our first choice front two out. If Sargent and Barnes had remained fit I am very confident we'd have another 7 or 8 points and we'd all be feeling differently tonight. One thing that is undoubtedly a concern, and even NN and Hoggy must accept this, is that Wagner's subs seem to change the game negatively more often than positively. It might just be a bad run, but it's happening far too often for my liking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,680 Posted October 7, 2023 I think what he meant was, I would rather the ball was at my feet than at Duffys and Gibsons all the time. Especially when that is my seventh goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Winning 25 24 Posted October 7, 2023 Can someone on here please explain to me why he hasn't been given a new contract already? At the end of the season he will only have 12 months left. Same goes for Sargent and Gunn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
