    richie wellens - id pay him whatever he wants. Id crawl over broken glass to appoint him if i was Sparks.

    he wasnt available before and there were no other standout candidates. They deserved their 18 month deals but we need better now it is available

    The regression has been in place since Rupp walked through the door, carrying out little due diligence on his partner. Since then the club has fallen year in year out and we are still only half way through the recovery period....

    Season ticket numbers are falling year in year out and will be down again next season, assuming we can get one. For some ifollow will become a norm and for others they will watch the illegal method.

    It just feels all negative at Valley Parade. My son, whom I love going to football with, has really fallen out of love with the club. Despite being a season ticket holder he has barely watched a handful of games this season. He's clear he doesn't want a season ticket next season which poses a question for me...

    Yet again it’s ok to have plenty of possession but not having any ideas in the final third of the pitch. Not sure Rowe could have done much for us as we created nothing up top.
    Tranmere nicked the goal but from the start of the 2nd half we let them dictate the pace of the game, even after Cooke came on we created very little.
    Very poor showing tonight, let’s face reality, we achieved our league status and that was all this season was about after our poor start.

    But will that orchestrate real change. Right from the top downwards?

    Don’t necessarily disagree but how sad is that.

    Lets hope your correct, I wanted to give them the benefit but not sure they deserve it after the last few games, and tonight suggest to me they have limitations and don't seem to be prepared to take a gamble even when we have nothing to lose, very much the Bowyer style recently.

    Rowe wouldnt have rescued that game as he’s slower than Bob Molenaar.

    we’re carrying FCD, whichever GK we start, and AOC let us down tonight at CB.

    so, so frustrated tonight. Big opportunity wasted........yet again.

    Dominated and controled the game ffs which game was he at :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

    If that's the best you can offer I'd have no problem with Ryan giving you both your P45s or let you go back to the kids, complete bollocks man.

    This is one embarrassing interview.

    Ryan Sparks you cant allow this sort of BS not to be challenged,

    Sparks hasnt been happy with our performances and his Tweets confirm as much.

    Wellens walked because Salford wanted a direct style and he refused to give up on his mantra.

    He’s the perfect fit. I might be aiming too high. But Christ on a bike, he’s a perfect fit for us and getting our attacking talents firing.

    I'd get rid of them now. Nothing to lose - the Play-Off dream has gone. Let a new man see what he's got before pre-season training.

    Just said that to my lad about 2 minutes ago and we both agreed. If this club has any shred of ambition get Wellens signed up now before someone else snaps him up.

    Both teams utterly devoid of any attacking idea. Zero shots on target according to the bbc, although i am pretty sure Connor Wood's pea dribbler that the keeper put round for a corner was.
    Again another big re-buid needed.
    Odonnell , A Oconnor ,Wood ,Clarke ,Ismael ,Donadlson ,Novak all out for various reasons
    Cook ,Burrell to return to parent clubs
    Try and shift Evans, Vernham , Pritchard , Foulds total waste of space
    Paudie , Finn Cousin , Crankshaw ,Sutton ,Watt , Canavan, Cooke, Hornby, Staunton, Rowe a base to build from.
    Scales squad player to bring on next season.
    Not sure if i have forgotten anyone . but with the last three games, its quite easy to forget them all.

    Ffs we dominated the first 10-15 minutes maybe where Crankshaw should have done better but after that we did nothing
