Blackburn Rovers expect new boss next week

11:34pm Thursday 25th October 2012 in Sport

BLACKBURN Rovers global advisor Shebby Singh says the club will have a new manager by the middle of next week.

Singh has confirmed that Rovers have now started interviewing candidates, after drawing up a shortlist earlier this week.

Rovers have now been without a manager for almost a month since Steve Kean's exit but Singh expects a decision to be made over his replacement in the coming days.

Asked when the club will have a new boss in place, he said: "Definitely by the middle of next week."

On the subject of the interview process, Singh said: "It has started already.

"You must understand the sensitivities of making this appointment after what happened .

"That is why we have to tread with caution.

"If caution means taking a little bit more time than usual, we will do that."

Dear Shebby,

You have spent 4 weeks allegedly running round trying to get a manager in without the rest of the board knowing. You got rumbled on McKinlay so you had to start again with the interviews. You should have been doing this a month ago. Now you've decided against appointing Holloway if the latest reports are to believed. You are a media-hungry, arrogant moron who knows nothing about football. You are an embarrassment to BRFC. Please get lost.

Kind Regards.

Shebby, FFS, shut up. Don't you realise how ridiculous you are ?

Just do your job, help hire a decent manager and have a press conference when the ink is dry.

Middle of next week, erm, I think maybe most of the supporters feel like they have been hit into the 'middle of next week' every time we read the club statements.
Two years of messing about is quite long enough, we need a fresh start with a true first team manager.
Harry Redknapp, short term or otherwise, now thats what I call a fresh start!

It's about time that the lame brained amongst you started to realise that the club was sold to Venky's and it's their absolute right as owners of the club to appoint Shebby, Kean and any other person they see fit. This is not about romance or futile gossip.....the club has been sold. As frustrating as it maybe for the hardcore fans to appreciate but who on earth do you think, when you shout Venky's out, is going to get them to leave?!

A man we know once tried to do business with a revered institution of
English soccer. “I can do business with stupid people,” he said afterward,
“and I can do business with crooks. But I can’t do business with
stupid people who want to be crooks.”
It was a decent summary of the soccer business, if you can call soccer a
business. People often do. William McGregor, the Scottish draper who
founded the English Football League in 1888, was probably the first person
to describe soccer as “big business,” but the phrase has since become
one of the game’s great clichés. In fact, McGregor was wrong. Soccer is
neither big business nor good business. It arguably isn’t even business at all.

Nathan, you seem to share the low opinion the owners have of the fans. Lame brained fans who must walk like sheep into Ewood and support whatever happens there without question.
Even the "lame brained" owners began to press the panic button at the end of Kean's reign as they saw successive 20 year low attendances. The threat of an all out boycott for the Wolves match was too much for Kean, as he would have no credibility in any employment tribunal if it was proved that he had driven away the "lame brained."
So, why does a club need supporters anyway, you may ask, young Nathan. Well, son, that is something for you to think about while you are squeezing your spots.

kenbro says...

What Nathan says is true. Venkys bought a business. They can do almost anything they want with it.
However, most businesses have a product and customers. Without those two elements, the business fails. If your chicken take away serves atrocious fare,and treats it's customers badly, it will lose them, and fail.
Same goes for a football club.
Successful businesses provide a good product and work hard to please their customers. Both of these have been in very short supply since Venkys arrived.
No way to run a business.

Well dad, as I'm well into my forties I'm pleased to confirm that my acne issues have faded away.
If you are confusing the eradication of Kean with Venky's you must be pretty niaive. He was purely cannon fodder.
I'm not here to dispel the frustration that is directed towards the owners of the club, but they own it and that's how it is.
We don't have a clue what there agenda is, perhaps in the next week we will have an understanding of their ambition, maybe then we will know.

In all my 72 years of supporting Blackburn I have never been so appalled as I am right now.

Flitcroft is not the man

I've been around the block long enough (72 years) to know a no good dullard when I see one. And I tell you what I see now: a no good dullard.

Chorley! what sort of credentials are those?

Jesus, can this man even hold a pint glass properly? Kean and Hendry could drink their beer like proper men but I doubt this new puppet of Shebby's even sups real ale. Disgusting.

No - this is all going to end in tears I tell you. 72 years experience tells me. I can sniff out the wronguns I tell you.

When I look at Flitcroft I see WEAKNESS. Yes, there's a bit too much of "I'd prefer to set up the cones for training" about him than "I'm off to steal my neighbours' life savings and pi.ss it all away gambling on NFL all night while drinking special brew". I can see it in his eyes.

This doesn't bode well for BRFC.

This should be interesting! Forget Harry Redknapp, that is not going to happen as he has already said so himself. God knows where the Mail got their so called 'exclusive'.

Shebby 'I'm as mad as a box of frogs' Singh will bring in a 'young, up and coming' manager just as he has always said that he/venky's want.

Whoever it turns out to be, we really need to back this guy and give him a chance. Experienced managers have gone to clubs and failed, on the flip side young managers have gone to clubs and been a success. No one knows how this will pan out, you never know, he could be a revelation!..... I hope!

Sorry to confuse you with a juvenile Nathan, but I was judging you on your comments - which were both juvenile and insulting. Doubly juvenile.
You really must learn to read. I did not confuse Kean's resignation with the Venkys. They failed to pull the trigger, but that does not make Kean "cannon fodder." In fact of all the descriptions I could imagine of an under-qualified, overpaid, under-achieving individual, "cannon fodder" would be the last on any list. Especially as he seems to be under starters orders to claim unfair dismissal. (Don't worry about that yet, they will tell you when you get a job.)
You say that we may find out what the owner's agenda is over the next week. Two points. First. Your a bit nosy aren't you? What the Dickens has it to do with you, lame brain? Do you think you own the club?
Second. You won't.

Even the "lame brained" owners began to press the panic button at the end of Kean's reign as they saw successive 20 year low attendances. The threat of an all out boycott for the Wolves match was too much for Kean, as he would have no credibility in any employment tribunal if it was proved that he had driven away the "lame brained." So, why does a club need supporters anyway, you may ask, young Nathan. Well, son, that is something for you to think about while you are squeezing your spots.[/p][/quote]Well dad, as I'm well into my forties I'm pleased to confirm that my acne issues have faded away. If you are confusing the eradication of Kean with Venky's you must be pretty niaive. He was purely cannon fodder. I'm not here to dispel the frustration that is directed towards the owners of the club, but they own it and that's how it is. We don't have a clue what there agenda is, perhaps in the next week we will have an understanding of their ambition, maybe then we will know.[/p][/quote]Sorry to confuse you with a juvenile Nathan, but I was judging you on your comments - which were both juvenile and insulting. Doubly juvenile. You really must learn to read. I did not confuse Kean's resignation with the Venkys. They failed to pull the trigger, but that does not make Kean "cannon fodder." In fact of all the descriptions I could imagine of an under-qualified, overpaid, under-achieving individual, "cannon fodder" would be the last on any list. Especially as he seems to be under starters orders to claim unfair dismissal. (Don't worry about that yet, they will tell you when you get a job.) You say that we may find out what the owner's agenda is over the next week. Two points. First. Your a bit nosy aren't you? What the Dickens has it to do with you, lame brain? Do you think you own the club? Second. You won't. Roy of the

Kenbro.. I would agree with you in principle, but Venky's have lots of chicken outlets....Blackburn is a little branch, unlike the Indian cricket league... We live in hope that they have a serious commitment to the club and that they cannot afford to write off their investment. Either way, biting the hand that currently feeds you is dangerous!
I don't know how large the Indian Cricket League is, but I doubt that it is as well known world wide as is the Premier League, and that is the business that Venkys bought, and have diminished.
I understand that "loss of face" is very important in the sub-continent. If this is so, it would be humiliating for the Venky Company to be the ones who ruined a formerly successful Premiership English team.
So, although our Rovers are a small branch of their total business, it may be psychologically more important to them, because failure at Ewood would be reported around large parts of the world, and the blame would be entirely theirs.
If this is true, perhaps it will give us hope that they, eventually, will have to get it right. I watched my first match at Ewood in 1943, so I hope they do.

Nathan, you are obviously a Venkys man posting as a "fan." Maybe you are even a Venky - are you Barry White or Runty? One thing is sure, you don't have a clue about the relationship between fan and club.

If you can't contribute in a civil manner then it would be best not to comment at all. Of course we'd all be estatic if Redknapp, Shearer or Jim Bowen managed the club and Walker was back at the helm, but wise up a little!!

I take it this calling me is you hiding from putting up your list. So now you've had your adolecent swipe, let's see your list of preferences for the job. Terry's of Burnley
I'm intrigued, why would anyone have to 'put up their list' to appease you? How on earth does not posting a list indicate that they are 'internet only fans?' Get a grip for crying out loud!
Oh hello, its the kid who thinks the liverpool/manchester set ought to frequent the restaurants of ribble valley. You, I know already as a prck. I have left a response on a previous article. After reading your posts, its clear you also know little about fooball managers as you have plenty of criticism and questions but fail to come up with any suggestions. Its not about appeasing me, but since the whole subject is that of who should be the next manager, your posting nothing but reaction to speculation rather than contributing any positive suggestions. That do ya? Terry's of Burnley
Liverpool/manchester
? Ribble valley restaurants? WTF are you talking about? i've never mentioned anything about that on here! Get your facts right before you spout off, it prevents further embarrassment!

My point about Redknapp earlier was that you could not possibly know whether he had expressed an interest in the Rovers post or not. Yes, we all know the reasons why he refused the Toon job, but is it inconceivable to think that he may have changed his priorities and thought about giving it a go?

We know he's not coming now anyway so it's a bit of a mute point.

Now, as i said earlier, get back in your box!

It's about time that the lame brained amongst you started to realise that the club was sold to Venky's and it's their absolute right as owners of the club to appoint Shebby, Kean and any other person they see fit. This is not about romance or futile gossip.....the club has been sold.

So you are suggesting we sit back like lame ducks like yourself and not voice our concerns get real,

Don't hold your breath everyone! Let's wait and see how we go on against Watford tomorrow - 3 points, and what's the betting the new manager is....... Eric Black?

Wake up people, Shebby is a charlatan, buffoon, and a con man. Certain names are being banded about to try and pacify us fans. In reality, it will be the cheap and cheerful option, with the megalomaniac acting as director of football. He is a legend in his own mind!

Come on , can you really see Harry Redknapp working with the Three Stooges?

SHYSTERS GET OUT OF OUR CLUB NOW

You haven't a clue about the true goings on down at Ewood which is evident with your futile comments and you obviously aren't a true Blackburn supporter.

Rovers fans, like shareholders in any company have a say in how it's run, which is exactly what they are doing.

When you have an understanding on the intricacies of running a successful business, which Blackburn Rovers hasn't been since Venky's took over two years ago, come back with a sensible and better informed comment Nathan!

No - this is all going to end in tears I tell you. 72 years experience tells me. I can sniff out the wronguns I tell you.

When I look at Flitcroft I see WEAKNESS. Yes, there's a bit too much of "I'd prefer to set up the cones for training" about him than "I'm off to steal my neighbours' life savings and pi.ss it all away gambling on NFL all night while drinking special brew". I can see it in his eyes.

He's still looking for someone 'up and coming' , experience not necessary ... so maybe Steve Kean's 12 year old son

Jack, it seems to me that Nathans point is the owners have the right to do what they want when it comes to managing the club, and this is correct.

You are asserting that the fans are shareholders with a say in how the club is run. I think you meant stakeholders, not shareholders. Us fans only have the right to express an opinion and, by our actions of giving or withdrawing custom, hope to influence the owners. We can have influence but not 'a say'.

I think we all agree however that by taking a lot of bad advice, and ignoring the fans for 2 years the current owners have made a total bo11ocks of trying to run BRFC as a successful football club.

Thanks, Greenscreener. You only have to look at M.K. Dons to see what owners are capable of. If we as supporters annoy Venkys that much, it is possible they could pull the plug. Remember the Bhatti Brothers at Wolves.

The fans are the customers and they are essential to the clubs survival. Venkys would find it impossible to exercise much by way of owners rights other than putting the club into administration if they found themselve sitting in an empty stadium.
The fans have the absolute right to deride Venkys for their arrogance and stupidity and they can have an influence over the owners actions as seen in some of the recent U turns. Eventually the fans will contribute to bringing the Venkys ownership to an end.

Kind Regards.[/p][/quote]It's about time that the lame brained amongst you started to realise that the club was sold to Venky's and it's their absolute right as owners of the club to appoint Shebby, Kean and any other person they see fit. This is not about romance or futile gossip.....the club has been sold. As frustrating as it maybe for the hardcore fans to appreciate but who on earth do you think, when you shout Venky's out, is going to get them to leave?![/p][/quote]The fans are the customers and they are essential to the clubs survival. Venkys would find it impossible to exercise much by way of owners rights other than putting the club into administration if they found themselve sitting in an empty stadium. The fans have the absolute right to deride Venkys for their arrogance and stupidity and they can have an influence over the owners actions as seen in some of the recent U turns. Eventually the fans will contribute to bringing the Venkys ownership to an end. Nuttall Street

Not sure about Redknapp to be honest. IF he accepted do we really think he'd stick at the job under such a regime - I doubt it. Holloway or Grayson for me - either of whom would be much better at getting the best out of the resources they've got available as I'm sure Venky's won't be splashing the cash.

Dear Shebby,

You have spent 4 weeks allegedly running round trying to get a manager in without the rest of the board knowing. You got rumbled on McKinlay so you had to start again with the interviews. You should have been doing this a month ago. Now you've decided against appointing Holloway if the latest reports are to believed. You are a media-hungry, arrogant moron who knows nothing about football. You are an embarrassment to BRFC. Please get lost.

Kind Regards.
Shebby, thanks for winning your duel with Kean and all the best in your search for a good manager and in your mission of getting rovers back to premiership. Since your arrival things are changing for the better and good luck to you.

He's still looking for someone 'up and coming' , experience not necessary ... so maybe Steve Kean's 12 year old son

Bazzer, that's precisely what I meant. I've only been on this site since yesterday but it strikes me that there is a general misconception as to what we can do here. Yes of course it's terrible, almost laughable that the club has seen fit to conduct itself in the manner it has....at the moment the club is a shadow of it's former self.
But Venky's bought the company and are not governed by opinion, and despite their obtuse ignorance and apparent failings to date, unless by dome miracle they choose to leave or sell we are stuck with them for now.

You haven't a clue about the true goings on down at Ewood which is evident with your futile comments and you obviously aren't a true Blackburn supporter. Rovers fans, like shareholders in any company have a say in how it's run, which is exactly what they are doing. When you have an understanding on the intricacies of running a successful business, which Blackburn Rovers hasn't been since Venky's took over two years ago, come back with a sensible and better informed comment Nathan!
Jack, you are so far off the mark it is not true.
Bazzer, enlighten me with how you see things down at Ewood if I'm 'so far off the mark?'
Jack, it seems to me that Nathans point is the owners have the right to do what they want when it comes to managing the club, and this is correct.

You are asserting that the fans are shareholders with a say in how the club is run. I think you meant stakeholders, not shareholders. Us fans only have the right to express an opinion and, by our actions of giving or withdrawing custom, hope to influence the owners. We can have influence but not 'a say'.

I think we all agree however that by taking a lot of bad advice, and ignoring the fans for 2 years the current owners have made a total bo11ocks of trying to run BRFC as a successful football club.
Bazzer, we're all aware of who owns BRFC at the moment and you're correct, we as fans are stakeholders not shareholders as I previously posted, apologies for the mistake.

When Venky's bought our club in 2010, it became clear what their intentions were, asset stripping and trying to run the club as a dictatorship. This was the reason Sam Allardyce was ousted because he wouldn't be told what players to buy and how to run his team as manager.

I could go on and state all the other proper 'football' people who had the best interests of BRFC at heart, who also lost their jobs down at the circus but everybody's aware of the inept replacements brought in, in their absence.

I'm sure the Rao family weren't aware of how much fans can influence decisions in the boardroom and whether the previous manager walked or was shoved, it's clear that the actions of the thousands of stay-away supporters brought them to their senses.

So all in all I don't think I was too far of the mark with my original post, especially with your reply, as you knew exactly where I was coming from.

I am not a fan of the current regime but i am also not convinced putting the club up for sale at this point is a good idea, but it amazes me how when a club representative comes out and makes a statement people will tear it apart as being lies and deciet ( and i understand that based on history) but when some anonimious jouralist puts something out there then we are happy to have that as Gospel.

Nathan, I wasn't commenting on your ability to run a business (or 3). It was your statement reference the 'lame brained' Blackburn fans who, apparently, don't have the right to voice their concerns about the club they've supported for many years (including myself since the 70's) before Venky's turned up on the scene.

As you stated, the Rao family can do what they like as owners, but if the FA are unwilling to carry out a 'Fit and Proper Persons' test then the only people standing in their way are it's supporters, otherwise there's a very good chance that we'll be another Portsmouth, being taken to the cleaners by 'business' people with only one intention which is making money on the back of player sales.

To be fair, during the early stages of this season they've splashed a bit of cash, but that's come from last season's transfer turnover, which probably amounts to around £30m, give or take!

Explain to me why the WEC Group's directors, who are BRFC fans, pulled the plug on their sponsorship deal; why do we not have a shirt sponsor? Why did Jack Straw, (a Rovers fan), at the end of last season, try to get Richard Schudamore to look into the takeover?

The people mentioned above, know how to run a successful, stable club better than you and I, and like they say, there's no smoke without fire!

So although we're 'only' the supporters, Blackburn Rovers FC would be nothing without us!!

Nathan, I wasn't commenting on your ability to run a business (or 3). It was your statement reference the 'lame brained' Blackburn fans who, apparently, don't have the right to voice their concerns about the club they've supported for many years (including myself since the 70's) before Venky's turned up on the scene.

As you stated, the Rao family can do what they like as owners, but if the FA are unwilling to carry out a 'Fit and Proper Persons' test then the only people standing in their way are it's supporters, otherwise there's a very good chance that we'll be another Portsmouth, being taken to the cleaners by 'business' people with only one intention which is making money on the back of player sales.

To be fair, during the early stages of this season they've splashed a bit of cash, but that's come from last season's transfer turnover, which probably amounts to around £30m, give or take!

Explain to me why the WEC Group's directors, who are BRFC fans, pulled the plug on their sponsorship deal; why do we not have a shirt sponsor? Why did Jack Straw, (a Rovers fan), at the end of last season, try to get Richard Schudamore to look into the takeover?

The people mentioned above, know how to run a successful, stable club better than you and I, and like they say, there's no smoke without fire!

So although we're 'only' the supporters, Blackburn Rovers FC would be nothing without us!!

Yeah sure it was Sir. But guess what? You learned old fashioned English.We no longer call people Sir under any circumstances. Also no-one would ever say " the club could do with a huge lift right now." It proves you a liar and failing to understand the mechanics of fan and club. C'mon, your name cannot be Nathan - even if you were British, no child in the 70's got christened "Nathan." Anyway, even if you go to Ewood you would have no place. You don't belong. You don't understand. You will never win.
Dear sir..........

It is true we never address anyone as sir.

In the same way, there is absolutely no place for Latin in the English language per se, yet it coninues to be used ad nauseum.
