he'd be more up against it if he was the manager now.

Judging from the majority of comments, he's already up against it and he hasn't been appointed.
Yup, any you know us doubters are fickle enough to shut up if it did actually work out.

Any manager will get the backing of the crowd who can at least get the team playing with pride and guts............Wilson and now Hart seem unable to do this so fans are not happy. Its not just about results......the attitude yesterday was shocking. The crowd yesterday was outstanding in its support in my opinion......the min silence and then the support was second to none.

Not going to argue with that, but if Fitton is really concerned with the fans response then he should realise Trollope isn't the man at all.

fitton has already shown he does as he wants. nobody knows if trollope is the man or not anyway,but his job to win over the fans will be harder if he came in when we were on our way down. i dont think anyone would have kept us up personally,maybe fitton thought the same? like i said, hart was a no lose gamble.

I think people are being unfair on trollope
People are unwilling to credit him with wovers relative success when he was there, and also unwilling to accept that his failures were down to a lack of resources. Look what happened to them since he left.
He could do a job................ (take note leefer of an appropriate "......." moment) .....................................
With Alan Mac as number 2. He'd sort the cunts out!

The original gamble in sticking by Wilson was the thing that's fucked me off the most. I'd have preferred Trollope to be appointed before the January transfer window closed. How brilliant would it have been if he'd come in and saved us but Rovers had gone down?
I had a sinking feeling when I heard Hart's name mentioned as next in line, but I changed my mind thinking any change to freshen things up would be better than Wilson. The problem is nothing has changed. Hart hasn't got a fucking clue and this was evidenced so well yesterday. He must have got lucky in keeping Palace up.
From what I've seen of Rovers under Trollope they were a hard working team who played to their strengths and did well out of it. Even when they sold fatty Lambert they still did alright. It was only this season he didn't do well but that's got to be due to budget restrictions. In contrast we've spent big. What a shambles.

I am not impressed with Hart for one reason - style of play. 1) Playing 1 up front against Walsall and Daggers AT HOME is unforgivable 2) A season of that would drive me mad.
I do however think he had taken on mission impossible, I don't think it is the fact that we will be relegated that should prevent him getting the job, more the way we have gone down.

If we got Trollope I'd simply lose all of my already negligible interest in STFC so I quite hope he gets it, then I can knock this stupid football lark on the head.

I heard he is still employed by Rovers, technically. Gardening leave.
Quite why they wouldn't release him from that makes no sense, I agree.
Maybe they've got some gardening they want him to do and he hasn't finished it yet?

Whoever got the job when Wilson was dumped was going to be manager of a relagated side, lets not kid ourselves.
Lack of ability in replacing players who moved on is what has screwed us.
With the exeption of Grella, I can't remember a player who has come in this season and done anything resembling the business.
As for replacement for Hart, I stick by my opinion that we should look at finding another player manager in the Macari/ Ardilles/ Hoddle/ McMahon mould.
Kevin Phillips, Gary Nevill, Paul Scoles. It doesn't matter a jot who they really want to be manager of. Persuade them that learning their trade at Swindon is a good idea. Sign them on a 2 year contract, let them loose to do their stuff on the pitch and then, when we have been saved, let them go if they want.

Was Trollope in charge of the Rovers team that stuffed us 4-1 at home last season....?

I could have sworn we scored but maybe it was 3-1 at there`s...they were the one team that I remember we struggled against last season. No big fan of Trollope but I dont think he would be the worst choice. And if he made a job of it...what a returning hero he would be..... The more I think about it...give him a go, fuck all to lose in my book
