Haha. That’s madness that he’s still doing his punditry. I quite like the bloke (not sure why) but that rant will mean he’ll lose the dressing room & at some point over the next 6 games Vince will panic & fire him or he’ll walk. You can’t be dropping first teamers or taking 5 kids from the youth team to Stags on Tues. There are no free hits when league status is at stake.

The reality is that he could be good long term and he’s absolutely right, they’re a total basket case of a club but Vince’s ego won’t allow him to accept a longer term project as he’s committed to building a new (wooden) stadium and sunk millions into this hence the managerial merry go round thus far.

The stadium is a smoke screen for an industrial park he wants to build, fortunately the planners are insisting the stadium is built first. All this taking place on a green field site which shows what a hypocrite Dale Vince is when it comes to making money.

As Vince is the 'money man ' behind JUST STOP OIL he will probably set up an Oil Refinery Business on the Industrial Park if he can make money

The guys a complete W and a hypocrite

Listening to FGR supporters, if they do move stadiums then DV has it in mind to build houses on the old one. You just got to love these ‘green’ crusaders who ultimately look to improve their bank balances rather than the planet. As for Just Stop Oil, in the unlikely event of a ban being imposed you have not got to be a genius to see who would be one of the main beneficiaries, Ecotricity of course!

Also a lesson for Wrexham perhaps, as it seems that DV is getting bored with the idea of constantly shelling money into project Rovers.

On paper, with our precarious financial position and losing good players, it looked grim. I won’t count my chickens until it’s mathematically impossible to be relegated but Coughlan, and his team in the background, are currently exceeding a lot of people’s expectations.

Absolutely correct. Further the complaints about Coughlan are not about the results but about the performance. Of course people are entitled to complain and say what they think. My view is that last time I went into MacDonald's I didn't expect silver service from a formally dressed waiter with my Big Mac.

The annoying thing is that we've played like Real Madrid at times this season when the players have allowed (Doncaster at home/FGR away etc) but also played horrific long-ball for large swathes of other games. I think that if GC had a bigger wage budget he'd play a more attractive brand of footy whereas I don't think you can say the same about Flynny for example.
