Mark Lillis till the end of the season. And get Mark Warburton on a pre contract ready to take over. Brentford play good football passing / attacking. Any man who can take Brentford up and put them in playoff contention gets my vote. Been thinking this ever since he announced he was out at Brentford. Don't let it drift into the offseason - competition will be too fierce for him. And if you've heard him on the radio he comes across fantastically well. |

If he can't motivate the players to put 100% effort in what hope is there. In Powell's defence (and theres not much id defend him on) why do players need a manager to get them up for a game? How can they not put 100% effort in for 90mins every week. Its the least you expect from a player. It's their job. |

What's Powell said about this game anyway? His post match comments are normally baffling and funny in a sad, this isn't our manager is it!, kind of way

Town have an experienced ex defender as a manager, and you would have though Powells specialised subject would be defending. Town have an experienced ex premier league defender as a captain, and you would have thought that Hudsons specialised subject would have been leadership and organisation skills. Put both of these people in the same team set up , and cue towns woeful defensive record which is getting worse.

Don't think him leaving Brentford is a foregone conclusion, to be honest. If it was, he could have already walked and I'm sure there is or will be plenty offers available to him. |

How many times in my lifetime have we seen a successful manager fail at another club especially when taking on the England job. I will be more interested to see the team that Powell puts together in the close season , and there will be a mass of freebies to chose from on footballs ever increasing loan player scrap heap. |

'A bad few days at the office'? It was obvious to me that the players weren't playing for the Manager today. But the Rotherham players were playing for Evans, despite what some people on here think about him. I certainly would not put towns woeful defensive record down to a bad day at the office. |

Powell should do the honourable thing and walk,he must realise by now coming to Town was the wrong move,if he goes please take that prick ross Wilson with him.OOpps did I say walk that is if he can be bothered to get up off his arse,his usual position on match days..ffs.

Simply put Evans got his players up for the game and yes Powell can be as angry as he wants but he got out coached and he didn't get his team up for a local Derby which is very poor. The players themselves have a duty to give 110% which they blatantly didn't but Powell isn't the right man. There was a reason Charlton mugged him off

There was a reason Charlton mugged him off We wont be winning any local derbies any time soon with this guy in charge, so we had better get used to it. Not enough passion in the man. No understanding of our local rivalries. People don't seem to recall but that FA cup match last season against Charlton when he was still their boss, they were one of the worst teams I have ever seen, Ok they robbed us, but I wouldn't have given him the job on that showing alone. |

not sure Rotherham really 'got up for the game'..
I truly think they couldn't believe their luck to get such an easy game at this stage of the season..
I guess if town had another 10 points on the board they might have thought so...
You might praise your players for winning most of the 50/50s etc, we didn't compete for them so its a moot point..
The most annoying thing is that we all know apart from the goal that powell would have been happy with the first half, its not disappointing, its bloody annoying..

You cannot lay the blame solely at Chris Powell tho. The players did not look interested at all. How can you blame the manager for that? You can blame the coaching staff for the apparent lack of fitness sure, but once they are out on the pitch it is the players job to perform. As Simon Trevitt stated on twitter after the game, there used to be a time when players were proud to pull on that shirt. There was no pride in that capitulation. I don't think any player could say they played well the other day. Shocking all over the pitch (apart from young Lolley who has bags of potential), Majewski looked decent when he came on, but the rest were just shocking.
Makes no wonder Powell was near to tears. He must wonder how these players can be so crap on a matchday.

people are been harsh on here so its lee clark simon Grayson mark robins chris powell fault er no guys its hoyle and his sidekicks fault. why would powell offload 10 players in jan for 2 players coming in he wouldn't it has been forced upon him he has been absolutely sold down the river But the players we offloaded, whoever made the decision, were no better than what's left. Wouldn't have made any difference. they were competition though it is not a case of been better at least if hammill or pato were still around or even wardy then we could have maybe had 3 attacking options on our bench at least |
