In truth he shouldn’t even have the decision to make if he stays or goes given his behaviour yesterday. The board should be doing that for him. Also got to ask yourself what it’s doing for him health wise if his stress levels have got to that stage. Best all round for him to move on. Jimbo is also right. I think more than a few will be giving the place a miss now while he’s in charge. Very unlikely the board will do anything seeing as he has family involved in the club now, as I said feet well and truly under the table now.

They also should never have allowed so many of his family to get involved putting themselves in this position. The club is not a personal plaything for anyone.

However poor we were in the relegation season brian reids record overall was miles better than sandy clarks regardless of whether people liked him or not it's the truth and unfortunately stats will show this. We are in a downward spiral and it's only going to get worse. I unfortunately predicted what would happen after sandy was wrongly awarded a new contract and I can only see the club getting worse under him and it's sore to see the club in this state it doesn't resemble close to the club I remember and you'd be lucky if any of the current squad would lace the league 2 sides boots Imo

Some really good points on the thread. Respectful and constructive.
Think it's obvious to the fans we are going backwards under our current management team and they have to go.
There are some good calibre of managers out there who would jump at the chance to manage Rovers.
Crowds will start to dwindle if change doesn't happen soon.
Time for action.

Board certainly need to grow a set and not be scared to sack the manager, why it hasn't happened yet is beyond me only thing I can think of is they're scared too. The previous manager was genuinely relieved of his duties for less so the question is why is the current manager still in charge with a worse record.
Things need to change very quickly, I dread to think how much worse it's going to get.

Any programme's left from yesterday's game also I can't make the game midweek due to work so I'd love a programme from the Strollers game also.
Thanks Neil.

As alluded to earlier in this thread, it is encouraging to see sensible posts about yesterday’s result, our general trajectory, and the situation at the Club as a whole from so many different quarters. Questioning is healthy and shouldn’t be made to feel anything but.
Interesting that nothing has said on any Club socials since FT yesterday. It can be difficult after tough results to accept a need to address key issues - but given the circumstances yesterday, there’s so many things that need to be addressed.
Unfortunately, I think any trust/respect that was built between the management team and fanbase was eradicated in five minutes at quarter to 5 yesterday. I saw that ugly, aggressive, and pathetic scene play out before my very eyes and haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. Say what you want about Brian Reid, Kevin Harper, even John Brogan - I don’t think for one *second* any of them would have behaved in such a manner. It has brought ARFC into disrepute, I’m afraid.
One of the reasons I resigned from the Board earlier this year was because of growing concerns I had about the culture in both the Boardroom and the dressing room. It’s now spilling over and awareness is growing on the terraces. The anger amongst a sizeable number of our small support is now palpable and that can never be a good thing.

I only caught the first half before having to leave from what I seen rovers have regressed even further. The impact of losing niyah Joseph is showing the results last season would have been much worse without him. Hopefully things get better for rovers soon although I do believe Sandy should go

There is little point in going over old ground. We need to be looking forward. Giving Sandy a new contract was an error and although I wasn't in agreement with the new contract I could understand the reasons the BOD did this.
It was reasonable to assume that Sandy was going to use the summer wisely and recruit players to take us to a better standard.
It was quite clear early on that the quality of players we had signed was substandard and not going to get us to where we wanted to be.
We need someone in now to asses this squad and get them playing better, cohesive football. I genuinely think Saturday was the last straw . Not the result as such but what happened at the end of the game.
Don't think you deserve the chance to come back from that.

Everything has been covered here already with some superb posts. After yesterday's shocking scenes at full time its definitely time for the board to act and relieve Sandy and George of their duties. We are regressing badly and things won't get any better without a change of management. Like others have said there will be a lot of good managers who would be interested in the job and hopefully someone who puts more emphasis on attack than defence applys for the post. No post match interview on social media from Sandy yet which might mean something.
Will be looking out for an announcement tomorrow.
