Whatever the reason, it's a huge relief he's signed. The names Gary Johnson and Ian Holloway had already been mentioned as replacements. Both, especially the second, would have been a catastrophe. Out of interest why do you think Holloway would be a catastrophe for you. He would be for us but that's an entirely different story! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but anyone who gets promoted (or relegated) has some good luck (or bad luck) throughout the season. If you say Rovers were lucky to go up because of a decision going our way in the play off final, then by the same token you would have to acknowledge that we were unlucky to go down after we battered Mansfield and did everything but score in our last game. We got relegated because we deserved it, and we got promoted because we deserved it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got relegated because we deserved it, and we got promoted because we deserved it. While in some ways I think you are correct. The team that goes up, or down over a season deserves it, you focus on the last game/games as they are at the business end of the season , but the tone has been set by the previous 30+ games. A play off game is a one off so one bit of (mis)fortune can dictate your fate, a team that finishes 20 points ahead of another can lose a final to a deflected shot...... just thinking out loud .

We got relegated because we deserved it, and we got promoted because we deserved it. Fair point; but if I were to play devil's advocate and retort when you went down you were relegated because over 46 games you didn't do enough - long enough for luck to even out; when you went up from the conference you went up in a lottery. You did as much as Grimsby to put yourselves in a shoot-out and lucked out on a single, winner takes all, event. By the same token I wouldn't suggest you were lucky Accrington didn't beat Stevenage. I wouldn't because they had 46 games and long enough for luck to even out to place themselves in front of you. Grimsby, however, you could reasonably argue got shafted over the course of one game; a singular event where luck doesn't even out. So anyone who goes up automatically, it's evened out, anyone who goes up in 90 (or pens) at Wembley.... The loser can bemoan luck.

Had the correct decision been made, Rovers would have played over half the game a player down. That is a huge difference. Well in that case had the referee given the foul on our keeper when Dover equalised in the last minute in our penultimate game, we would have gone up in first place instead of Barnet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're missing the point... You had 46 games up until that point. For the one decision you didn't get at Dover you got one at Braintree (tongue in cheek). But seriously, the point is over 46 90 minute events luck cannot really separate you and Barnet, you had 46x90mins to put yourselves ahead. If you didn't that's a failure, not luck. In one single game however, someone on the end of a bad decision can feel aggrieved. Over the league you cannot look at one game in isolation (like Dover) you need to consider the 46 as a whole, In a playoff what went before is irrelevant - ask Wimbledon, ask Barnsely, ask Sheff Weds. It's what matters over 90 that counts: which in turn means luck over that 90 counts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the old adage of 'never go back' applies in spades here. He lost it in 2000 when we bottled the playoffs and admitted managing Rovers as a fan and ex-player was a bit too much to take. Still, he, and we, don't have to speculate about that now. Just as well Reading sacked their manager today and not last week. That would have been a much more tempting offer for DC.

Which makes me wonder if DC was trigger happy. That could have been a good job for him and one he may have been a reasonable candidate for. On the flip side, a three year deal on the biggest ever managerial wages for someone who has only achieved promotion from the basement of the football league... That's gambling too. Ultimately I come down to no DC wasn't trigger happy; he just earned himself a fine pay off. Edited May 27, 2016 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 To suggest that Rovers were lucky with their two promotions ranks a bit of bitterness to be honest. I'm firmly of the belief that teams create their own luck and over 46 games the table doesn't lie. Regardless if they should have had a player sent off at wembley, Grimsby still had plenty of chances to win the game but blew those opportunities. Just let them enjoy their limited success confined to the lower leagues.... and remember, neither of their recent promotions are a patch on how we absolutely steamrollered League 1 last year whilst picking up the paint pot along the way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
