I hope Matty Taylor can coach the whole team to strike a ball like he does. We'd be bloody brilliant.

The most surprising thing in this, is that it didn't happen a couple of days before the Cheltnum game, rather than the Yeovil game.... although I'd have thought Saturday must be in serious doubt. Therefore it could be we'll enter it as our next game in complete disarray. Fucking typical

I think its a really tough gig for Taylor.
I had hoped that Flitcrofts departure would see the return of Vigs and preferably Norris being taken out back and shot! But to ask one of the players to make those sort of decisions at this point seems unlikely.
It will be interesting to see if how different their views are when Taylor names his first team. Though he has some problems with injuries and suspensions.

Taylor seems a model pro, which is good, so should get a bit of respect from the other lads, but management is about so much more. I've no idea if he has any of those qualities. However Matty has worked with Phil Brown....  |

It's not clear if we can recall Vigs.
definitely a tough ask to manage and play.

One of the problems with MT taking it over is that he isn't likely to be playing.

Indeed, yet when Swindon fans on FB are saying these things then its called sour grapes or bullshit by Mansfield fans, all of Flitcrofts faults were warned us by Bury fans....and guess what....they were right.
I won't miss him, he did an adequate job but not too many Town fans will stick up for him fully.
He did some good, he got us a bit of stability but the bad far outweighed the good IMO.
That sums it up for me too JJ. Not a fan, not at all sorry to see him go. I'll be interested to see if Woolery and Mullin get more of a look in. Could/should be key players for us IOM... |

He said in an interview his family are worth ‘Billions’. Maybe in Ugandan dollars sir?
They may well be. Although you only have his word for that. But either way, they ain't spending it at Rovers |

Why is he not likely to be playing? |

Agree with this, and not sorry to see him go per se, but can only see this blowing up any remaining chance of promotion this season. Not because Flitcroft is a managerial genius but because it's about as well timed as a James Dunne tackle. |

Taking the role of Player Manager is difficult but not impossible as long as he has somebody on the touchline that he trusts for judgement of on pitch matters. |

This is an interview for his next career, at his age he would be bonkers to try this as player manager. |
