Michael W Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Locke isn't surviving this, everyone. Media blackout as well - he's gone. I'm feeling strangely euphoric. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Not yet. But he is. Just seen Matthew on twitter saying, no management or players speaking to the media. That's it for him then. Thank fuck.Hope it gets announced tonight and not tomorrow morning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Terrace Gazza Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 You might get rid of Locke but the transfer window is closed, so any new manager would have to work with the same players 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren't bad players. That's what Gary Locke does to any team, he goes near. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locke inherited most of a squad that finished 4th under McKinnon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 All the signs point to him being punted. There's no way he survives that. As suspected a few weeks ago, he's saddled us with some donkeys though. I think Ryan Stevenson is probably the worst signing we've ever made, not necessarily the worst player we've ever had but he plays just like a man released by part-time Ayr and part-time Dumbarton. Fancy that?Hopefully we don't see Skacel or him on the park again. Ideally not Brennan either but in fairness he's all we have just now. There's a team in there somewhere that can keep us up, but it's pretty obvious to anyone that Gary Locke can't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention our own player currently striving to keep Dumbarton above us.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 We're just assuming he take Jackson with him, right? Fucking nightmare if we finally punt Locke only to be saddled with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 Worst case scenario: Jackson stays on. Probable scenario: Easton, if he wants it? Probably with some help from a senior player (Robertson?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 There aren't players at the club any more senior than Skacel. Scott Robertson would be a shout, as his injuries sound like they've really taken their toll and this could be a move he wants to make. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L. Brilliant Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 If I was him I'd be struggling to let go as well. Probably got commitments and no promise of another job. I don't even think he's a nice guy or a good guy, just a guy - not a scumbag or a bandit. I just can't hack the Rovers being pish and doomed. No harm to him, I just want better than no wins in fourteen. This hasn't worked and that madness on the park tonight proves all the sensible ideas are all used up. Out with a weird whimper. Time up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted February 7, 2017 Share Posted February 7, 2017 By all accounts GL is a broken man and will know he is facing the bullet, I feel sorry for him in the same way I would for anyone about to possibly (eventually) lose their job. That said this is a business and there can be no room for sentiment and in this business as in any other an incompetent has to be removed and replaced.
