Wouldn't want Ronnie back under any circumstances. The football under him was woeful, stale, dire, boring. He only managed to keep us in contention because his teams could win at home against mediocre opposition. I think the squad we have now is better, assembled for far less money, it's just a shame that hasn't come through in the results (you can argue why....).
Sorry to be so harsh on a Rovers legend.
Slander.
We finished 7th under him in his final season with (I believe) the best home record in the league and the football under him was a lot more adventuorous than it is under Les. If Les has a better squad at his disposal then we should be performing a lot better than we are now. Granted Ronnie had a bigger budget back then than we have now, but it was still small and he worked minor miracles with it.
Under Ronnie we beat ****ing everyone at home. As most fans only go to the home games, that counts for a hell of a lot.
