Best game I have seen Rovers play for quite some time. Jennings has a big job on his hands but we can see the shoots of recovery growing slowly game by game. It was great to hear the fans singing for a new manager. Murphy had his best game in a Rovers shirt, Rochina. An himself into the ground. Henning knew just when to send on the subs. All in all they deserved 3 points but ok we have to settle for 1 but so far so good onwards and upwards. A little tweaking in Jan then we can take the run in by storm.

If you didn't go to the game then you have no say in how they played. After the rubbish we have put up with for the last two years then to see football being played and the endeavour of the players then I for one am prepared to give Henning a chance to turn these players into proper footballers. The fans appreciated the effort put in by the team.

I was one of the boycotters at the start of the season and didn't return until the numpty had gone, last season I felt so low and flat I couldn't even applaud the odd bit of football I saw. But I am impressed with Berg, listening to him speak and the difference in the team in 7 days is remarkable. For the first time since Sam left I really enjoyed the game today, the results will come. The big negative is that it took the owners so long to make a change and make an appointment, the delay could cost us come the end of the season.

Seems to be a phrase that is being said a lot so far this season down at Trampwood. I'm sure we'll be hearing it many more times before next May.

Just wait for them to come on here with their numerous bogus accounts, claiming Rovers played well and reason for hope, more time...etc etc etc. They're just treating the paying supporters like utter clowns.

The foreign owners are good for satisfying the PL's "fit and proper" test. They are also good for stashing off shore money to make it look like a club has gone belly up....when in reality money is being housed in foreign bank accounts......oh, they are also good for dodgy betting patterns in the far east!!
.
How many goals have we conceded late on in games?? Why did it take so long to appoint a manager?? Why did we fail to have a shot on target against Spurs last season?? Why did we have players coming off winking at the manager?? Team lineups revealed etc etc Shame on all involved!!!

Nunes, when he came on was dangerous, much better than Markus who played well. Nunes is the type of player who could really complement Rochina.

Overall, blackburn played really really well. Despite a draw, its the best i have seen blackburn play in a very long time.

Agree 100%!

This was the best performance in long time. Finally a manager found how to get the best out of Rochina ( a very talented player, true Premiership class).

Maybe Rochina as number 10 and Rhodes+Gomes in the front for home games. Fábio Nunes is very sharp and dangerous, we need to use him more as well.

And why not Vukcevic for Murphy or Ethutu sometimes. He was on top shape today. True fighter.

Always been impressed with Vuckevic and Rochina. Pity they weren't utilised more last season.
Kean seemed seemed quite happy to "get rid of " or not play his best players.
Guess we'll never know why.
Was he acting under orders or was he really that stupid ?

Why wasn't I cheering them on? I couldn't afford it. I can afford it with a season ticket that works out about £11 a game but not when it's £19. Before you call me for not being a proper supporter, that's just the way it is. I support them in spirit if not in person. I imaging many others who have 'gone missing' are in the same boat.

Well done Rovers! Well done Henning! COYB!

Why can't you attend games up to the limit of the cost of a season ticket? You would have spent that anyways.

Overall, blackburn played really really well. Despite a draw, its the best i have seen blackburn play in a very long time.

Agree 100%!

This was the best performance in long time. Finally a manager found how to get the best out of Rochina ( a very talented player, true Premiership class).

Maybe Rochina as number 10 and Rhodes+Gomes in the front for home games. Fábio Nunes is very sharp and dangerous, we need to use him more as well.

And why not Vukcevic for Murphy or Ethutu sometimes. He was on top shape today. True fighter.

Always been impressed with Vuckevic and Rochina. Pity they weren't utilised more last season.
Kean seemed seemed quite happy to "get rid of " or not play his best players.
Guess we'll never know why.
Was he acting under orders or was he really that stupid ?

Should have won the game, still a lot of work to do, but at least Murphy and Formica played better than before and Berg knew how to tighten the defence second half.

Disappointing result, but green shoots of a recovery.

Disappointed not to win but improved quality until the final third.

Lapses in concentration are costing the team points and that needs to be addressed before we are adrift of the top.

Rovers need an organising centrehalf who can install discipline at the back.Get Givet in at fullback and Martin Olsen as the wing back.

The two that impressed today were Adam Henley - I would love to now why Kean ignored him last season after Old Trafford and Simon Vuckevic - he has the ability to take players on produce quality crosses and tracks back to defend - again why he was ignored for 18 months beggars belief.

Now we need some serious support for Jordan Rhodes - he is not a One up front striker never was never will be. We need a bit of brawn up there someone able to hold the ball up for others to come through on - a Kenwyne Jones type would do nicely even on an Emergency Loan until Best is fit - maybe he is the missing link.

I fear we are not Premiership quslity at the moment but are we are movong forward and wasnt the atmosphere today at Ewood just brilliant - made you want to be there

Yes they must have been spurred that much by the crescendo of noise inside Trampwood that it underwhelmed them on to scrape a draw with a team 18th in the league. They've peaked for the season.

Feels like a loss.

Seems to be a phrase that is being said a lot so far this season down at Trampwood. I'm sure we'll be hearing it many more times before next May.

Ipswich 2 Dingles 1 Yorkshire Inbred !!!!

Well done son, you can read, good for you!

Ahh, sore bell end master returns, spouting the usual sewerage that we have become accustomed to from those slack jawed jabba the hut lookalikes.

Please explain your feelings when you checked the final score (assuming you weren't one of the phantom hundreds of thousands that made the trip by horse and cart) only to see that you're comedy football club had been brushed aside like a bunch of turd burgling mincers, by the then rock bottom and quite rubbish Ipswich Town?

Your good lady had a hand (literally) in the reason for my sore nether regions! I wish I'd done it myself.

A mere blip Rover me old fruit, a mere blip. I was a little disappointed I must admit when their winner went in but you have to expect these little set backs occasionally during the season.
This result will pale into insignificance come 2nd of December when all those years will come back to bite you. In fact you lot might as well bend over and get lubed up now because one hell of a butt f**king is on it's way for you !!!!!

Anyway Rover, how did you feel about drawing at HOME to the equally as mediocre Brum ??? And where exactly are the returning masses at the Dawn of your new era ???

Unfortunately it would appear that too many people are commenting on games whilst they are still protesting. It is fair to say we have not played well however today there was a fundamental difference in the performance. More offensive, better possession and players looking confident on the ball. Danny Murphy getting applauded when he left the field says such a lot. The astmoshphere was much better even though the numbers were still very low. It now needs those supporters who said they would come back when kean had gone and a new manager was in, put their words into actions and come and support their team.

It was great to hear the fans singing for a new manager. Murphy had his best game in a Rovers shirt, Rochina. An himself into the ground. Henning knew just when to send on the subs. All in all they deserved 3 points but ok we have to settle for 1 but so far so good onwards and upwards. A little tweaking in Jan then we can take the run in by storm.

"ONWARDS AND UPWARDS"....you really are taking the p1ss now pal.

If you didn't go to the game then you have no say in how they played. After the rubbish we have put up with for the last two years then to see football being played and the endeavour of the players then I for one am prepared to give Henning a chance to turn these players into proper footballers. The fans appreciated the effort put in by the team.

well said a darener! Best i've seen rovers for years. Smelly needs a good hiding

Well...I'll pop down to the Taps one night and you can try your best....

Smelly please please please tell me when you are there. I will happy break them fingers for you just to stop you coming on here and abusing real Rovers fans. So unless you can type with your feet (while eating them bananas with your feet) you will at least be off here for a good few weeks. You are a t++++r!!!

Don't worry "Big Man" I'll surprise you.

He looks like the taxi driver in Royston Vasey!!!

RUinsane say`s he doesn`t know where the TAPS is, very unusual ,he`s lying again , he was spotted there drinking with the some of the locals ,KEAN/HENDRY/SHAW , his drinking pals, RUinsane goes in every week to pick up his wages from them, How can one person have the time to keep commenting on any post that has the slightest negative comment about any of the NEW Rovers management ,its impossible, RUinsane must be doing this as his full time job it`s the only explanation that makes any sense , he knows how to "talk the talk" he`s all mouth , but I suppose he must get well paid for it.

Maybe it's the football that you're watching that's making you so frustrated and angry. You could always stay away and boycott like the other plastic thousands until your back in the Premiership? But having said that , you're in for a very long wait so don't hold your halitosis stenched breath.

I was pleasantly surprised by Murphy today. In fact he will improve further. Yes Murphy has been terrible until now but in his defence his team mates had no provided any movement for him to play with. Playing with shape and moving into space is what causes openings. This is what Berg has brought to the table already. Rochina was everywhere today. Berg is building his team around him. If you give a player a free role and it is done properly then it takes pressure of the midfield as the pass is easier to find for the person who has the ball and is under pressure.

Rochina's improvement was that he didn't try to beat everybody and found some excellent passes.

I am surprised few posters have mentioned the style of play in terms of the HUGE difference in style. Very little hoofball. The ball was generally played on the deck. Berg clearly knows how he wants to see the game played.

The atmosphere towards the end was excellent. Other than the teams performance the most noticeable plus was the overall feeling/sense of confidence around Ewood as the game wore on. In other words no negative vibes. T'was all good.

Give Berg some time. He'll start winning with what he has at his disposal now and then with the intro of a No 9 and genuine leader at the centre of defence we will start to progress even more.

All in all a VAST improvement. Well done to Henning, the players and those that were there.

who could forget City's 8-1 loss away to Middlesbrough (again, final game of season)....

You're starting to win me over, I did a bit of digging too and what I found out, has put me in fear of disappearing forever. Hughes industries, that being howard hughes mastered Nano technology, what you thought was someone winking at the bench was in fact him taking a picture of a ball swap going on, the ball is in fact a small spaceship controlled by NANOBOTS that take instructions from Sky sports central. A certain super agent issues all pundits with the outcomes of all matches so they can rake in the cash in a massive betting ring. I didn't beleive it at first but when I heard MLT saying that he put a quid on southampton to draw with sansea 1-1 and I realised he would end up winning £2 I thought thats 100% profit in 95 minutes, so I've studied a lot of video tape and can confirm that the second planes wings disappeared before it hits the tower so it was a hologram. Just like the 7 goal drubbing we took off United. That was a hologram as well. Better go, we're being monitored.

Yes, it would have been the right thing to do to explain why Henning Berg, a strange choice as manager, was appointed. It seems to me that would have paid the appropriate acknowledgement that it is the fans who pay to go through the turnstiles each week and that it would also have been a helpful introduction to Henning Berg getting him off to a good start with everyone understanding why he was chosen.
Instead, Venkys gave no explanation of their choice and the introduction that Henning got was Shabby telling the national news media that if Henning does not get promotion to the Premiership this season (a very distant possibility) then he will be out. In truth if Henning managed in his first season to correct all the damage Kean did then he would have done a good job.
What a shambles! VENKYS OUT!

Why has this post proved so unpopular? It is merely a statement of facts. Hoping Henning Berg succeeds is surely what every fan wants. However, that is very different from hiding from the truth. The reaction to Smelly's post just underlines the anxiety about Henning Berg amongst the fans and, of course, the continuing realisation that in the Venky's Rovers have the worst possible owners. Henning Berg would not have been my choice. In fact he would not have been on my interview list, but I very much hope that he is a success. That is not changed by acknowledging his past record. In fact it is one of the questions about the appointment that Venky's have failed to answer along with every other piece of information about the appointment. The only insight into this appointment given out by the Venky's of which I am aware is that they were looking for someone who shared Mrs Desai's philosophy of passing football.

Why has this post proved so unpopular? It is merely a statement of facts. Hoping Henning Berg succeeds is surely what every fan wants. However, that is very different from hiding from the truth.

Henning Berg would not have been my choice. In fact he would not have been on my interview list, but I very much hope that he is a success. That is not changed by acknowledging his past record. In fact it is one of the questions about the appointment that Venky's have failed to answer along with every other piece of information about the appointment. The only insight into this appointment given out by the Venky's of which I am aware is that they were looking for someone who shared Mrs Desai's philosophy of passing football.

I now realise that she has overtaken me in my knowledge and experience of the beautiful game and we are in for a visual treat each time we watch Rovers. We are in safe hands and the quicker the Football League awards points for aesthetically pleasing soccer the better.
Furthermore, I intend to write to the Premier League and demand that Stoke City and West Ham United are deducted points and will call upon them to ban Mr. Pulis and Mr. Allardyce sine die.
Keep up the alternative voice Smelly!

During his spell he has managed a staggering 5 appearances as sub, maybe he won't quite make it as the next Chris Smalling, after all!

Now let me think, he was it that seemed to think he would?

It's a scandal that he's been on the Rovers payroll for coming up to two years, and for what ? It's a disgrace that Anderson and Kean were allowed to get away with it. If that wasn't a favour in return for Anderson getting Kean the managers job I'll eat hay with a donkey. Couldn't do any better than the subs bench at Aldershot says it all. I dare say Berg will have him out of the door at the earliest opportunity.

well said a darener! Best i've seen rovers for years. Smelly needs a good hiding

Well...I'll pop down to the Taps one night and you can try your best....

Smelly please please please tell me when you are there. I will happy break them fingers for you just to stop you coming on here and abusing real Rovers fans. So unless you can type with your feet (while eating them bananas with your feet) you will at least be off here for a good few weeks. You are a t++++r!!!

Don't worry "Big Man" I'll surprise you.

He looks like the taxi driver in Royston Vasey!!!

RUinsane say`s he doesn`t know where the TAPS is, very unusual ,he`s lying again , he was spotted there drinking with the some of the locals ,KEAN/HENDRY/SHAW , his drinking pals, RUinsane goes in every week to pick up his wages from them, How can one person have the time to keep commenting on any post that has the slightest negative comment about any of the NEW Rovers management ,its impossible, RUinsane must be doing this as his full time job it`s the only explanation that makes any sense , he knows how to "talk the talk" he`s all mouth , but I suppose he must get well paid for it.

Oh, for heaven's sake man.

One HUGE thing you are missing here is, it is possible to have a bad run as a manager no matter who you are. Two examples of this are Alex Ferguson coming extremely close to getting the bullet at Man U and also the disasterous run that Dalglish had at Ewood before we wont away at Plymouth on the final day of the season to secure sixth place, gain a play off place and make it in to the first ever season of the premier league. If you look at that record we won one in 13 games, hardly what you would expect of a man who would go on to guide us to out first top flight title in over 70 years!

Dalglish as we all know went on to win the league for us, so do not knock Berg until he has been given a chance. I for one can already see a huge change in the style and method of football, we are playing and I am sure Berg will get us moving in the right direction. I sincerely hope he can get us up this season, if not give the giy a chance!

Hi M Danny. The thousands staying away are staying away for their own reasons.
It might help if Venkys started showing their fans / supporters a bit more respect, instead of ignoring them like they have done for the last two years.

Yes, it would have been the right thing to do to explain why Henning Berg, a strange choice as manager, was appointed. It seems to me that would have paid the appropriate acknowledgement that it is the fans who pay to go through the turnstiles each week and that it would also have been a helpful introduction to Henning Berg getting him off to a good start with everyone understanding why he was chosen.
Instead, Venkys gave no explanation of their choice and the introduction that Henning got was Shabby telling the national news media that if Henning does not get promotion to the Premiership this season (a very distant possibility) then he will be out. In truth if Henning managed in his first season to correct all the damage Kean did then he would have done a good job.
What a shambles! VENKYS OUT!

.....Hi Nuttall Street.

"It might have been a helpful introduction to Henning Berg getting him off to a good start with everyone understanding why he was chosen. Instead, Venkys gave no explanation of their choice"

I agree but when DID Venkeys explain anything to the fans. Do we matter to them ? It seems not and that annoys me greatly.
As I commented in an earlier post, I have neighbours who used to spend £2,500 a year (season tickets, travelling and spending money at the ground ) supporting Rovers, but now no longer go as they "Don't feel valued"
Venkeys PR skills leave a lot to be desired so the club shouldn't complain about low attendances.

I quite agree its really tedious all the Rovers, Burnley banter, Trampwood,Turd moor,six fingered Dingles,Imbreds,Your sisters calling,blah,blah and think we have heard them all umpteen times about time to give it a rest.

Some people may get enjoyment from that, but I don't, even when we win. I would obviously have preferred 3 points yesterday, but at least we are playing proper football again!

What a difference having a footballing man in charge. Why did Venkeys put up with Kean for almost two years ???

Hi Carl, you make a fair point and I agree with you. Nonetheless, I don't think it should be taboo to point out as Smellthe coffee did that Henning Berg's results record is not great and, therefore, his appointment is something of a gamble and one which would have been better supported with an explanation from the owners. I don't think any of that is knocking the new manager. In fact, if I may, I will go a little further and say that I think the weight of expectation being placed upon the new manager by his supporters is too great to be helpful. If expectations are too high then the result will be a backlash at some stage. So,all in, being realistic about how quickly HB can progress from where he has been to where fans would like him to get to is not a bad thing. Progress is not going to be measured by promotion this season. At least while he is making progress we will not have to suffer from him the preposterous claims that were the hallmark of Steve Kean.

Guys, while I understand where you are coming from it really doesn't matter what Henning Bergs record was like in his previous jobs does it?

If Blackpool had used the same thought process they would never have employed Holloway would they, after all he wasn't all that successful at his previous clubs was he?

And to be honest any appointment made was going to be a gamble, each of us had different ideas as to who the best choice would have been but whether we like it or not it is Venky's who are putting their hands in their pockets, so they have to have the final choice.

There can only be one manager, I suspect that Venky's have learned that the hard way.

So we can be like Smelly, sniping away on a provincial newspaper website, his total hatred there for all to see, or we back Henning Berg and the team by getting down there and supporting them.

I know what I will be doing.

OK 2 points out of 9 isn't a great return but I saw something yesterday that told me we could have the right man in place, he has inherited a squad of players that lacks confidence, even commitment in some cases yet in three games we can already see the difference.

Give the guy a chance.

If previous managerial records count for nothing, then we can expect Steve Kean to be back in the PL anytime soon can we? Maybe he'll replace Hughsie at QPR should they sack him?

shut up smelly you idiotic dingle. That game was amazing, a win would have made perfection but the 14k crowd gave it their all in support of the team and it was great to see. My only question as raised by others was Rochina coming off. What sublime skill on the ball! if i could get a recording of that game I'd love to watch him over again lol but he should have stayed on personally. I felt we lost some sharpness in the attack after he came off. Also Murphy proved today he can earn his captains armband, he was so much in control and creative. The best Rovers have played in a long long time and man did they look HUNGRY today. The results don't mirror the performance but the effort of the team and style of play.. Simon Vukcevic.. what an amazing talent - just shows how little Keanadonna knew about management keeping him out of the team. RTID - smelly and the dingles can kiss my shiny claret if you don't like it!

Two examples of this are Alex Ferguson coming extremely close to getting the bullet at Man U and also the disasterous run that Dalglish had at Ewood before we wont away at Plymouth on the final day of the season to secure sixth place, gain a play off place and make it in to the first ever season of the premier league. If you look at that record we won one in 13 games, hardly what you would expect of a man who would go on to guide us to out first top flight title in over 70 years! Dalglish as we all know went on to win the league for us, so do not knock Berg until he has been given a chance. I for one can already see a huge change in the style and method of football, we are playing and I am sure Berg will get us moving in the right direction. I sincerely hope he can get us up this season, if not give the giy a chance!

Hi Carl, you make a fair point and I agree with you. Nonetheless, I don't think it should be taboo to point out as Smellthe coffee did that Henning Berg's results record is not great and, therefore, his appointment is something of a gamble and one which would have been better supported with an explanation from the owners. I don't think any of that is knocking the new manager. In fact, if I may, I will go a little further and say that I think the weight of expectation being placed upon the new manager by his supporters is too great to be helpful. If expectations are too high then the result will be a backlash at some stage. So,all in, being realistic about how quickly HB can progress from where he has been to where fans would like him to get to is not a bad thing. Progress is not going to be measured by promotion this season. At least while he is making progress we will not have to suffer from him the preposterous claims that were the hallmark of Steve Kean.

Guys, while I understand where you are coming from it really doesn't matter what Henning Bergs record was like in his previous jobs does it? If Blackpool had used the same thought process they would never have employed Holloway would they, after all he wasn't all that successful at his previous clubs was he? And to be honest any appointment made was going to be a gamble, each of us had different ideas as to who the best choice would have been but whether we like it or not it is Venky's who are putting their hands in their pockets, so they have to have the final choice. There can only be one manager, I suspect that Venky's have learned that the hard way. So we can be like Smelly, sniping away on a provincial newspaper website, his total hatred there for all to see, or we back Henning Berg and the team by getting down there and supporting them. I know what I will be doing. OK 2 points out of 9 isn't a great return but I saw something yesterday that told me we could have the right man in place, he has inherited a squad of players that lacks confidence, even commitment in some cases yet in three games we can already see the difference. Give the guy a chance.

It was great to hear the fans singing for a new manager. Murphy had his best game in a Rovers shirt, Rochina. An himself into the ground. Henning knew just when to send on the subs. All in all they deserved 3 points but ok we have to settle for 1 but so far so good onwards and upwards. A little tweaking in Jan then we can take the run in by storm.

"ONWARDS AND UPWARDS"....you really are taking the p1ss now pal.

If you didn't go to the game then you have no say in how they played. After the rubbish we have put up with for the last two years then to see football being played and the endeavour of the players then I for one am prepared to give Henning a chance to turn these players into proper footballers. The fans appreciated the effort put in by the team.

Yeah...just keep spouting your rubbish on here and you think people will believe you?? Well the attendance says it all....as does the result at home to 18th in the Championship!! . ONWARDS AND DOWNWARDS!

shut up smelly you idiotic dingle. That game was amazing, a win would have made perfection but the 14k crowd gave it their all in support of the team and it was great to see. My only question as raised by others was Rochina coming off. What sublime skill on the ball! if i could get a recording of that game I'd love to watch him over again lol but he should have stayed on personally. I felt we lost some sharpness in the attack after he came off. Also Murphy proved today he can earn his captains armband, he was so much in control and creative. The best Rovers have played in a long long time and man did they look HUNGRY today. The results don't mirror the performance but the effort of the team and style of play.. Simon Vukcevic.. what an amazing talent - just shows how little Keanadonna knew about management keeping him out of the team. RTID - smelly and the dingles can kiss my shiny claret if you don't like it!

Game was amazing??? You being serious there?? A 1-1 draw at home to a club that is 18th in the Championship?? Oh yeah...that must rank highly amongst the best ever days for Rovers!! Maybe someone out there being fed on a drip might believe the UTTER RUBBISH you spout on here from your NUMEROUS...NUMEROUS ACCOUNTS (in order to get the fans on your side) but the VAST MAJORITY DO NOT...hence the reason why people are still staying away....THEY DON'T LIKE BEING TAKEN FOR MUGS...AND THEY DON'T LIKE SELF SERVING GREEDY B@STARDS!!! THEY REFUSE TO LINE THE 'SYNDICATE'S' POCKETS!!

Some people may get enjoyment from that, but I don't, even when we win. I would obviously have preferred 3 points yesterday, but at least we are playing proper football again!

What a difference having a footballing man in charge. Why did Venkeys put up with Kean for almost two years ???

Pleased you pointed that out zulu. They continue to believe they are still a premiership club and post all sorts of expletives in response to any one who says different. They claim Clarets who post such are being bitter, envious and angry. We have to regularly point out that this is not true and what a laughing stock they are, so its good that you are able to 'independantly' confirm what the rest of the footballing comunity think.

As distasteful as it is, his dad is a football agent and Myles is (allegedly) a footballer. It is common knowledge agents are very good at stirring the proverbial to get their clients a move or a better deal. Of course in Myles' case it was very convenient because of the influence his dad had on the owners and "manager" at the time, but that's what agents do - get their clients jobs. Like it or not, he took advantage of being in a very favourable situation. Sadly, I don't think this will be looked upon as him having "got away" with anything. Agents maybe lower than a snake's belly but their job is to get the best deals for their clients (and of course themselves). The fact Myles is Hans Christian's son will not be seen as relevant in any investigation. I really hope there have been dodgy dealings involved in all of this mess and someone will be made accountable. The ineptitude of the owners has seemed almost beyond belief so it would at least explain why. We could also feel vindicated after all the stick we have taken. However, I still think we are just looking at naive, ill-advised and incompetent people who took over a business in what was to them a totally new industry without any real idea of what they were doing. Like it or not, they won't get put away just because they are useless.

Still pining after the percentage game Bazzer, give it up and move on. Big Sam has gone. If you like, go support the Ammers and their d1ldo peddling hierarchy.

Can we get back to the question of whether HB will turn us round. I believe after seeing the performance on Saturday that within a month he will have a well drilled team going up the league. It was a refreshing change after the last two years to see a Rovers side that actually seemed to know what it was doing. Ok the result could have been better but Rome wasn't built in a day. (I wasn't foreman on that job). Good luck to HB and his staff, keep up the good work.

It's a scandal that he's been on the Rovers payroll for coming up to two years, and for what ? It's a disgrace that Anderson and Kean were allowed to get away with it. If that wasn't a favour in return for Anderson getting Kean the managers job I'll eat hay with a donkey. Couldn't do any better than the subs bench at Aldershot says it all. I dare say Berg will have him out of the door at the earliest opportunity.

I fully agree and it appears that they have got away with it, along with lot's of other dubious goings on. Despite the rumours that the fans meetings with the varlious authorites would have the whole lot exposed, it appears nothing is to come of it!

As distasteful as it is, his dad is a football agent and Myles is (allegedly) a footballer. It is common knowledge agents are very good at stirring the proverbial to get their clients a move or a better deal. Of course in Myles' case it was very convenient because of the influence his dad had on the owners and "manager" at the time, but that's what agents do - get their clients jobs. Like it or not, he took advantage of being in a very favourable situation. Sadly, I don't think this will be looked upon as him having "got away" with anything. Agents maybe lower than a snake's belly but their job is to get the best deals for their clients (and of course themselves). The fact Myles is Hans Christian's son will not be seen as relevant in any investigation. I really hope there have been dodgy dealings involved in all of this mess and someone will be made accountable. The ineptitude of the owners has seemed almost beyond belief so it would at least explain why. We could also feel vindicated after all the stick we have taken. However, I still think we are just looking at naive, ill-advised and incompetent people who took over a business in what was to them a totally new industry without any real idea of what they were doing. Like it or not, they won't get put away just because they are useless.

...you should know that Venky's aren't of the correct religious persuasion to have enough clout in English football...they just do as they're told.

All the time the managers Rovers' would have got (if it wasn't for the corrupt 'consortium'), the likes of Mick McCarthy and Ian Holloway keep winning. . Just wait for them to come on here with their numerous bogus accounts, claiming Rovers played well and reason for hope, more time...etc etc etc. They're just treating the paying supporters like utter clowns.

Why has this post proved so unpopular? It is merely a statement of facts. Hoping Henning Berg succeeds is surely what every fan wants. However, that is very different from hiding from the truth. The reaction to Smelly's post just underlines the anxiety about Henning Berg amongst the fans and, of course, the continuing realisation that in the Venky's Rovers have the worst possible owners. Henning Berg would not have been my choice. In fact he would not have been on my interview list, but I very much hope that he is a success. That is not changed by acknowledging his past record. In fact it is one of the questions about the appointment that Venky's have failed to answer along with every other piece of information about the appointment. The only insight into this appointment given out by the Venky's of which I am aware is that they were looking for someone who shared Mrs Desai's philosophy of passing football.

One HUGE thing you are missing here is, it is possible to have a bad run as a manager no matter who you are. Two examples of this are Alex Ferguson coming extremely close to getting the bullet at Man U and also the disasterous run that Dalglish had at Ewood before we wont away at Plymouth on the final day of the season to secure sixth place, gain a play off place and make it in to the first ever season of the premier league. If you look at that record we won one in 13 games, hardly what you would expect of a man who would go on to guide us to out first top flight title in over 70 years!

Dalglish as we all know went on to win the league for us, so do not knock Berg until he has been given a chance. I for one can already see a huge change in the style and method of football, we are playing and I am sure Berg will get us moving in the right direction. I sincerely hope he can get us up this season, if not give the giy a chance!

Hi Carl, you make a fair point and I agree with you. Nonetheless, I don't think it should be taboo to point out as Smellthe coffee did that Henning Berg's results record is not great and, therefore, his appointment is something of a gamble and one which would have been better supported with an explanation from the owners. I don't think any of that is knocking the new manager. In fact, if I may, I will go a little further and say that I think the weight of expectation being placed upon the new manager by his supporters is too great to be helpful. If expectations are too high then the result will be a backlash at some stage. So,all in, being realistic about how quickly HB can progress from where he has been to where fans would like him to get to is not a bad thing. Progress is not going to be measured by promotion this season. At least while he is making progress we will not have to suffer from him the preposterous claims that were the hallmark of Steve Kean.

Guys, while I understand where you are coming from it really doesn't matter what Henning Bergs record was like in his previous jobs does it?

If Blackpool had used the same thought process they would never have employed Holloway would they, after all he wasn't all that successful at his previous clubs was he?

And to be honest any appointment made was going to be a gamble, each of us had different ideas as to who the best choice would have been but whether we like it or not it is Venky's who are putting their hands in their pockets, so they have to have the final choice.

There can only be one manager, I suspect that Venky's have learned that the hard way.

So we can be like Smelly, sniping away on a provincial newspaper website, his total hatred there for all to see, or we back Henning Berg and the team by getting down there and supporting them.

I know what I will be doing.

OK 2 points out of 9 isn't a great return but I saw something yesterday that told me we could have the right man in place, he has inherited a squad of players that lacks confidence, even commitment in some cases yet in three games we can already see the difference.

Give the guy a chance.

Hi Owd Nick,
You write in a most persuasive manner. Let us wait and let us hope.
