The 'What Now?' Show - The Team Of Short Names
It's the end of the season ("as we know it...") as REM might have wished that they'd sung.
It all still hangs in the balance and so the panel of Hollie Hawkesford, Ian Herbert, Ryan Hildred & Rich Sharpe - expertly prompted by host Roger Whiteside - consider :-
1. How are we all feeling ahead of the final match? What about all of the permutations, percentages, scenarios?
2. Who shoulders most of the blame for Rovers predicament this season? Jon Dahl Tomasson, John Eustace, Venkys troubles in India, poor recruitment, sloppiness in January? What would you change first ahead of next season, no matter which Division?
3. April Player of the Month, Fans Forum concerns, new EFL TV deal and potential impact on season tickets
plus...in the Podcast Extra - a public admission of defeat about away fans at Ewood and a quiz question

The 'What Now?' Show - Failure Is An Orphan
In this episode of the 'What Now?' Show - recorded before the Bristol City game - perhaps just as well - the panel convenes to discuss
Whether John Eustace is the right man to take the club forward next season? Promotion and Relegation Battles usually bring out the superstitions, with manager John Eustace himself admitting he didn't wear his hat against Sunderland to try and gain that extra bit of luck. What superstitions do the panel have? March player of the month. A wider talk on the player of the season, but also some unsung performers. Leaving aside Sam Szmodics, who else deserves a mention when it comes to the end of season awards?
Roger Whiteside asks the questions; the answers are provided by Mike Delap, Ian Herbert, Rich Sharpe & Michael Taylor.

Customer Reviews
A Must For All Things Rovers
Lucky enough to have been a guest on this pod.
The guys work incredibly hard to produce the pod.
Audio levels
Great content, but the varying audio levels/quality on 22nd March were infuriating. One microphone massively loud, another contributor difficult to hear. Turning the up, and then down again continually took the edge off!
My favorite Rovers podcast
Not too waffley, nice and balanced between being honest & optimistic wthout going too far over the top.
