Let's give the bloke a chance. The only fault I've found in him so far is saying ''in terms of" a bit too much. Is it the latest fashionable saying like "of late" ? ha ha ha

If this is true it explains a lot there is clearly an issue whether this is between the club and MT (and his team), the players and MT or both, something isn't right. For gods sake we cant even sign our own players or keep the loans we have, at least Viktor has shown some loyalty. All of this could be avoided if TS would come out of his bunker and speak up and support his new management team verbally and in the transfer market, but he is still walking around wembley taking the applause or sticking pins in his PW and Smith dolls. Let us look at the Scott High issue, MT states in an interview that High has returned to his parent club at both the players and the clubs request. Huddersfield this week say they wont be drawn on whether he has been recalled. Doesnt that smell to you lot, at least of a cock-up if nothing else. For a loan to end then paperwork will have to be issued, to trigger the termination clause. Now someone at Rotherham United has told MT that clause has been triggered, why would you do that if it isn't true? Incompetence, well if it is in the hands of the recruitment team that is worrying or is that clown Douglas involved again. Of course all of what is rumoured could be a conspiracy theory and the senior players and the board could all be round MTs house for afternoon tea, enjoying a piece of Battenberg, only time will tell.
For me MT and his team deserve time, they have long contracts that will cost us money we do not have to be kicked out, they need to be backed in January and the Summer transfer windows (we don't even have a full squad available) and the club needs to say something. If there are players that don't like him, get shut, if Wood wants to rule the roost let him do that somewhere else, Rotherham United is more important than any player. Kick any bad apples out keep the ones loyal to MT and build from there. It is no surprise that there is fall out from PWs demise he was here a long time and moulded the club in his image, he was protected through 3 relegations and brought us some great success in League 1 and at Wembley, the players are mostly young men that have only known RUFC as a PW club, some will fight change and some will embrace, but change is inevitable. Back your manager Mr Stewart and act as a leader
Have you ever thought that it might the the idiotic fans that make players want to move on?

Entirely agree with all that.The chairman appointed MT and must back him ASAP.We have by far the smallest squad and will struggle to fill the bench today.
I'm with Matty Taylor. Just show whose boss. You've given them all a chance time now to go with players you think are up to it. Strengthen were needed.
Like everyone else on here I've no idea what goes on inside the club ,unlike some people on here I don't pretend otherwise.
However ELK seems a straight sort of guy,so maybe he's telling the truth.
One of the problems Taylor will have is that Warne built an incredibly tight bunch of players, who won have died for him.
Warne realised a long ago that an incredible team spirit, and immense hard work was the only way we can compete with better players, this is why people like Wood were/are so important to the club,its not always about what they do on the pitch.
So maybe Taylor has broken some of this tightness in the group, this is probably inevitable when a new manager comes in,this could maybe explain the alarming slump since the world Cup break.
During the break he had 3 weeks to work with the players properly, this seems to have made things worse !
I believe he should be given until the end of the season, regardless of where we are in the league.
If that is true which I don't believe it is then the players need to get a grip and get on with things. If Wood is unhappy it's because he knows it's gonna be his last season because it's not Warne at the helm giving contracts out to his mates anymore when they're clearly not good enough for championship.
Changing the manager sometimes works - look at Newcastle.
Sometimes though, it doesn't have an immediate pay off. Not long ago Arteta was looking at the sack. Bounced Aubamayang out of the clubs, made his signings, had a full pre-season with his players that want to be there and romping the league.
Sometimes slow and steady wins the race.
