Rovers' boss decision on hold (From Lancashire Telegraph)

Why do Venkys make hard work every single decision - and even then they always seem to make the wrong decision !!

Sounds like they are looking for someone in a Director of Football role. Not sure that works, I remember King Kenny doing that here with Harford as manager. Kenny improved his golf handicap - but that was about the only good thing that came out of that appointment!

If they do go that way then Svennis may be actually be ok for that role - as he has excellent International, English and Italian League experience and could be perfect as a 'supremo'.

Best point from the article is that it sounds like Shebby is on his way out....

Gael Givet, Paul Robinson?

I'll put money on them both leaving shebster.

I agree, there are players who have been there two years and never had a game and are so "talented" they're never likely to get one. "A very talented squad " indeed. I believe Ribeiro is on his way back to Brazil BTW.

apart from yakubu and rhodes every player that has been brought in has been below par and not premier league quality.

and if anyone has been brought in with supposed talent has probably seen the current setup laughed there tits off and cant be bothered with the circus that blackburn rovers fc now is.

Couple this with the fact that not one person in a senior administrative post is competent, nor seems capable of telling the truth, is it any wonder we are in such a mess.

I've said it before, and will continue to say it -

Shabby - TOTAL UTTER BUFFOON
Shaw - only claim to fame, nearly bankrupted PNE
Agnew - press officer to Director of Operations - come on now!!!
Venky's - no comment necessary!

None of them should be within a million miles of a professional football club.

SHYSTERS GET OUT OF OUR CLUB NOW

Formica wanted by his old club in Argentina.
Bruno back to brazil.
Under normal circumstances I would let them all go but Rovers is no longer normal the replacements would worry me.
Maybe the out goings will keep Shaw busy,leaving Shebby to import the other half of Portugal,and Agnew,what does he do?

Until our club is returned to a board of directors making informed decisons after debate we will go on making mistakes and continue to look like a club without a rudder.

Money, money, money. Venkys must now know we're not even going to get back into the Premiership. They're not going to spend any more cash, they're cutting the running costs before going. Our only hope is that we're still in the Championship.
By the way, I know it's a fun site here, but some of you guys really live in cloud-cuckoo land playing "the new manager game" and suggesting Sven, Carra and looking for promising managers in lower divisions. As my grandchildren say "get real". Rovers is a business for Venkys, always has been and now for the reasons we all know, it's an obviously failed business.
Shabby has a license to mouth off, but what happens at Ewood can't be understood if you start from a footie perspective. It's now about an exit strategy from a failed and ill-advised business venture.

I applaud the results that Gary Bowyer and Terry McPhillips have achieved in the last two games. But does that justify the cynical decision for Shebby to say they will carry on until the end of January? Why the end of January? There can only be one reason - it is the end of the transfer window. In the meantime Shebby will have free rein to bring in anyone he likes.

Clearly that will not work. I think it is pretty obvious that one or all of Paul Robinson, Gael Givet and Morten Gamst Pederson will be leaving before January 31 saving something in the order of £6 million in wages.

But will they be replaced? Probably not, although again it is pretty obvious that all three should be. The quality in each position would be threadbare.

At the same time we are left to carry on with a threadbare coaching staff, too.

We truly have a dysfunctional and inoperable club – and now we discover there is in-fighting on the corridors of power. The hierarchy simply cannot continue in its present form and unless Venky’s restore the infrastructure they took over and so recklessly trashed we cannot move forward.

The thought of Shebby bringing in more players makes my heart sink.

On what criteria will they be bought? What the agents’ pay-off will be – and maybe what’s in it for Shebby himself?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The only person who can decide who to buy and sell is the manager. Only affordability and negotiation is left with higher authority.

Before Alex Ferguson buys any player he has a full dossier on that player. His attitude, his temperament, his character, his lifestyle. And most of all – will he fit into the team? No doubt other managers follow a similar criteria.

Not “How much is there in it for me?”

Our deaf and dumb owners in Pune must surely know by now what is wrong and how to put it right, but still they will not grasp the enormity of the situation. For the life in me I cannot understand their objective. They have not made one correct decision in over two years.

How do they expect to get back to the Premiership – even survive in the Championship – running the club with third-rate players, third-rate managers, a laughable ‘Global Advisor’ who interferes in team affairs, an operations director who has had four titles in 12 months and who does not ‘operate’, a managing director who cannot manage. A global advisor who is no more than a poor Malaysian tv pundit. An operations director who was a poor press officer. And all the time without the one person they so desperately need - a strong and experienced leader?

Why are they still stumbling around in the dark?

The suggestion that in our situation a manager can teach an up-coming coach the managerial ropes is just mind-numbing. And as for the last three sentences of the above story – we’ll see.

Forget new players whilst this mess rambles on as I can't see a manager being appointed this season now as it's a right off and the bottom line is they don't want a manager to manage as they keep using the phrase coach and I don't think we will ever get a manager again in the sense that we know it. Love to be proved wrong.

Get your head from up your own ar*e, everybody's laughing at Rovers. the way you hounded out Kean made my, and many others skin crawl. You lot have been punching above your weight for the last 10 years. The good times have gone, deal with it with some dignity instead of bleating like some frost bitten lamb.

As he applied for the defender job at Rovers? Some of you need to get real. why in this galaxy would Carragher, a one club man, ruin the end of his career going to work in a pathetic set up like Rovers.

Having attended school in Accrington, I shared numerous classrooms with Buurnlah fans and at the time, I could not fail to applaud them for their continued efforts in reading, writing and speaking.......somet

imes all at the same time. They were clearly not equipped to do so as it was obvious that their heads had not been put their for thinking but to simply round off their rather bulbous necks.
They did not wear Claret and Blue at school, they didn't need to: their cross focussed eyes, hovering vacantly below heavily hooded lids and eyebrows that not only met in the middle but extended to mingle with their nostril hair making them instantly recognisable to those of us with the regulation ten digits.
Our teachers battled courageously to accommodate the conflicting intellects of Buurnleh boys and normally adjusted pupils and I admired them as they acted more like missionaries than teachers in at least trying to stop them from eating their schoolmates.
Alas, as I now read the posts from the turf on these pages I reflect that all their efforts were in vain but I am encouraged that the Welfare Service has provided them with carers who can read and write for them with internet capability.
They are more to be pitied than scorned.

Why are they still stumbling around in the dark?

The suggestion that in our situation a manager can teach an up-coming coach the managerial ropes is just mind-numbing. And as for the last three sentences of the above story – we’ll see.

I think that most Rovers fans believe that we need at least 1 decent central midfielder, possibly 2 if we are going to have any chance of claiming that last play off spot - the midfield a far too weak as it is.

As for the power struggle - easy, sack all 3 of them - that would solve alot of our problems straight away and appoint 1 proper CEO who can then assemble his own team (finance director, comercial manager etc).

Why do Venkys make hard work every single decision - and even then they always seem to make the wrong decision !!

As he applied for the defender job at Rovers? Some of you need to get real. why in this galaxy would Carragher, a one club man, ruin the end of his career going to work in a pathetic set up like Rovers.

It's almost like some fans have just woke up from a two year hibernation, so are under the illusion that the club is still being run by professional staff that want what's best for the Club,rather than the mob of shysters we have in place now,whose only intent appears to be a continuous lining of their wallets to the detriment of our crippled Club. ...R.T.I.D.....

Not surprisingly there has been a mixed reaction to the mixed messages Shebby and the Venky’s have sent out over the last few days.

I applaud the results that Gary Bowyer and Terry McPhillips have achieved in the last two games. But does that justify the cynical decision for Shebby to say they will carry on until the end of January? Why the end of January? There can only be one reason - it is the end of the transfer window. In the meantime Shebby will have free rein to bring in anyone he likes.

Clearly that will not work. I think it is pretty obvious that one or all of Paul Robinson, Gael Givet and Morten Gamst Pederson will be leaving before January 31 saving something in the order of £6 million in wages.

But will they be replaced? Probably not, although again it is pretty obvious that all three should be. The quality in each position would be threadbare.

At the same time we are left to carry on with a threadbare coaching staff, too.

We truly have a dysfunctional and inoperable club – and now we discover there is in-fighting on the corridors of power. The hierarchy simply cannot continue in its present form and unless Venky’s restore the infrastructure they took over and so recklessly trashed we cannot move forward.

The thought of Shebby bringing in more players makes my heart sink.

On what criteria will they be bought? What the agents’ pay-off will be – and maybe what’s in it for Shebby himself?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. The only person who can decide who to buy and sell is the manager. Only affordability and negotiation is left with higher authority.

Before Alex Ferguson buys any player he has a full dossier on that player. His attitude, his temperament, his character, his lifestyle. And most of all – will he fit into the team? No doubt other managers follow a similar criteria.

Not “How much is there in it for me?”

Our deaf and dumb owners in Pune must surely know by now what is wrong and how to put it right, but still they will not grasp the enormity of the situation. For the life in me I cannot understand their objective. They have not made one correct decision in over two years.

How do they expect to get back to the Premiership – even survive in the Championship – running the club with third-rate players, third-rate managers, a laughable ‘Global Advisor’ who interferes in team affairs, an operations director who has had four titles in 12 months and who does not ‘operate’, a managing director who cannot manage. A global advisor who is no more than a poor Malaysian tv pundit. An operations director who was a poor press officer. And all the time without the one person they so desperately need - a strong and experienced leader?

I agree 100%. I've said it before and I'll say it again. Ask Dave Whelan to come over to Ewood, meet the Venkys for a few days and put them wise. I'm sure he'd do it for the love of our club - and his integrity is guaranteed. Simple.

Alas, as I now read the posts from the turf on these pages I reflect that all their efforts were in vain but I am encouraged that the Welfare Service has provided them with carers who can read and write for them with internet capability.

To be honest unfortunately I would just give the job to Bowyer and co because whoever comes in at the end of Jan and once the transfer window has closed will not make the slighteest bit of difference and may be counter productive because they will have to get to grips with the squad and find who they like etc. look what happened to Berg he could not find the balance quickly enough and he and we have paid the price with the dreadful run of results. The back room is an absolute joke. Venkys have caused this by getting rid of the infrastrucure of the club across the last two years. We now have a split in the running of the club and to be honest Shebby Singh must go if they are to sort this mess out. The running of any club should be done by a board of directors we had this prior to Venkys, a sound sensible knowledgeable board, now we have puppets who cannot do anything. Singh obviously makes the recommendations (He has simply replaced Kean in this regard) that go to Venkys who rubber stamp them, where do Shaw and Agnew, Coar, Silk etc come into the equation...quite simply they don't seem to. This operating model does not work, Kean was given too much power now Singh has the same power it seems. Hence the whole club is run on unsound foundations and as a result we have the mess we have today with in house fighting. Venkys do not seem interested enough (or close enough) in this part of their empire to change this though and have simply employed Shabby to run this for them...unfortunately they have employed the wrong man who likes the sound of his own voice, has his own opinions but does not seem to listen to reason...he is a danger to our club, a loose canon. Until our club is returned to a board of directors making informed decisons after debate we will go on making mistakes and continue to look like a club without a rudder.

Very well said.

Is it not time the fans put your opinion and that of others like Roverfor60years, directly to the club, delivered on paper in front of the media and endorsed by as many fans' signatures as possible? Maybe it already has? It needs to be like the Charterists with demands of what we expect. Get it delivered by courier to Venkys. We could go round like this for another 5 years being frustrated by which time the club will be no more. Iv wondered whether the players cant complain to the players association. Surely they expect or should expect proper professional management?

In what world do we only need a midfielder?!

We need at least one center back REGARDLESS of whether Givet is leaving. As soon as either Dann or Hanley are injured were up shebby creek without a paddle.

We need a pacey link player and we need a goalkeeper because we are down to bare bones without Robbo.

I would actually agrue our center mid pairing of Murphy + Lowe is pretty solid. Etuhu is decent enough cover. I think the rest of the squad makes the center mid look trash. Murphy - Since the boo's - for me has been putting in 100% effort every game and looking to make more forward passes now and Lowe is a massive prospect.

I think most of us know which players we would like see move on at BRFC.
Givet is a gonner...!!!

But who do we want in playing....!!

Ok, I think we should make recomendations to BRFC as we're football fans and we see or hear of players doing well. I'm sure we know a player or two out there in the Football league who in their opinion good be a good player for BRFC.

Lets start pointing out the players in the lower leagues who could be good signings for Rovers.
Tony McMahon Shfld utd
Andrew Haliday Midbrgh

who is .......Tony McMahon...??

if we need a good young defender who is tough and has ability then maybe you should consider Tony McMahon who is at Sheffield utd but ex Middbrg.

have a look...!!
I think we should go for him
hes a full back, strong, tough and has scored goals

Andrew haliday
tough strong and young

Problem is my friend, the venkys will not put any of their own money into the Club,and as the Club is now running at a loss, our lack of money will talk to no-one i'm afraid , this coupled with the fact that everyone in English football must surely now be aware of the mismanaged way in which the Club is being run and will make our club a no go area for all but the desperate. Nobody more than I hopes that i am 100% wrong on all of this, I want my Club to be where i and ALL Rovers fans feel we belong. I missed only 4 home and 8 away matches last season , flying back to Holland within an hour of the final whistle at times and costing me far more than the cost of my season ticket in the process. This season for the first time since i first stood in the Blackburn End with my Dad in 1969 at the age of seven , i have not been to a single match this season so far . There are parasites inhabiting and destroying MY Club and I cannot stand it any longer , it makes me sick to the pit of my stomach.The rest of my famly in Blackburn had,up till last season some 10 seaon tickets between them, this year for the first time i can remember , the number is down to 2. Supporting another team will never be an option,as we are all born and bred Rovers fans, so our only option is to sit and wait for the parasites to leave,then give our full support to the re-building that will surely be needed after they have finished gorging . As i say, I hope & pray that i'm wrong,but it's not looking good ... Full respect to others who feel different though as I know we ALL only want the best for our Club.....R.T.I.D.

And I doubt very much that they will EVER put any of their own money in.

All they have done is take it out and after the outgoings during this transfer window, it can't be very long before there's nothing left to take out.

they are putting a couple of million every month. Gate receipts only pay Murphy, Etuhu and Rhodes salary. I dont think anyone else will be interested in rovers as John Williams struggled for a few years to sell till Venkys came along. Venkys have said they are here for the LONG term Unfortunately that is reality.

Problem is my friend, the venkys will not put any of their own money into the Club,and as the Club is now running at a loss, our lack of money will talk to no-one i'm afraid , this coupled with the fact that everyone in English football must surely now be aware of the mismanaged way in which the Club is being run and will make our club a no go area for all but the desperate. Nobody more than I hopes that i am 100% wrong on all of this, I want my Club to be where i and ALL Rovers fans feel we belong. I missed only 4 home and 8 away matches last season , flying back to Holland within an hour of the final whistle at times and costing me far more than the cost of my season ticket in the process. This season for the first time since i first stood in the Blackburn End with my Dad in 1969 at the age of seven , i have not been to a single match this season so far . There are parasites inhabiting and destroying MY Club and I cannot stand it any longer , it makes me sick to the pit of my stomach.The rest of my famly in Blackburn had,up till last season some 10 seaon tickets between them, this year for the first time i can remember , the number is down to 2. Supporting another team will never be an option,as we are all born and bred Rovers fans, so our only option is to sit and wait for the parasites to leave,then give our full support to the re-building that will surely be needed after they have finished gorging . As i say, I hope & pray that i'm wrong,but it's not looking good ... Full respect to others who feel different though as I know we ALL only want the best for our Club.....R.T.I.D.

" Problem is my friend, the venkys will not put any of their own money into the Club, "

And I doubt very much that they will EVER put any of their own money in.

All they have done is take it out and after the outgoings during this transfer window, it can't be very long before there's nothing left to take out.

they are putting a couple of million every month. Gate receipts only pay Murphy, Etuhu and Rhodes salary. I dont think anyone else will be interested in rovers as John Williams struggled for a few years to sell till Venkys came along. Venkys have said they are here for the LONG term Unfortunately that is reality.

If you have the inside knowledge on the venky's U.k. (or whatever name this satelite company goes under) finances regarding how much is being transfered per month from the seperate venkys main company. I bow to your superior knowledge , as my opinions are only based on two years knowledge of how my Club hs been run down. If you are right though ,it gets even more desperate for us all, for just how long do you think they're prepared to kindly put back some of the cash they took out of the Club in the first place , before deciding it's much better to just strip the Club completely and leave with what they have , rather than put more back in ?

Look at all you back Stabbers, do you actually know what a footie supporter is actually supposed to do? Yep you got it tramper boy it's called SUPPORT your team.
You lot are mostly to blame for the demise of Ewood.
If you all pay to watch the glory boys then there's money to spend on players and a decent management team.
However if you lot stay away then what do you thinks going to happen? Yep your learning fast- down and gone CYA.
Another problem you have had with the vast majority of fans is they were only at TRAMPWOOD to see the likes of Man U , Man c , l/pool etc etc in other words there weren't true wrovers fans,they were fans of the prem.
Sort your so called fans out then that's when the re-building will start comprehend boys and girls its as simple as that.

WRONG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Venkys are NOT putting a single penny into the club - nor have they ever done.

We are LOSING and estimated £2m per month - no-one, not even SS has ever said Venkys are covering this with cash - all Venkys have done is to file a letter with the accounts (which apparently is standard practice in this situation) to say they parent company has cash and assets to cover the loses of Venkys London Ltd - that is a million miles away from actually putting money into the club.

Please DO NOT spread such lies that Venkys are putting cash into Rovers - they have never put a single penny of their own money into the club.

I can't see them being here for the long term really. The way they are going the club will be bankrupt soon and I can't see them footing the bill for too much longer. Can anyone ?

It's called mid table mediocrity, half way through the season and sailing a steady ship. No money worries, in the process of rebuilding (the ginger ninja hasn't brought any of 'his' players in) so no real newsworthy reports.

Would someone please pass on my apologies to Gary Bowyer for my empty seat tomorrow but I will not be back until Venky's decide and declare who exactly is running this club. It makes my blood boil to see comments from Shebby The Snake about players " banging on his office door". Why does he need an office when he can just slither down the corridors and sneak under the doors and the skins of those executives that he consistently seeks to undermine? This individual is a toxic, deluded self publicist with no credibility or crednetials. His continued presence here underlines the belief that Venky's really do not know what they are doing and never will whilst this conman is advising them.

PS If our beloved Global Advisor thinks he can just saythat players will not be leaving without his say so just goes to show how little he really knows about the workings of football. Surely each player has different circumstances, not least his own contract conditions? And does he not realise that players have agents? In any case, his activities have probably upset many of the players, and what is the point of retaining unhappy and unsettled players?

The quality of any player is a matter of personal opinion, and I do not share the views of many on here because I think that most of the team are ok.. It is surely more to do with the team organisation?

As he applied for the defender job at Rovers? Some of you need to get real. why in this galaxy would Carragher, a one club man, ruin the end of his career going to work in a pathetic set up like Rovers.

It's almost like some fans have just woke up from a two year hibernation, so are under the illusion that the club is still being run by professional staff that want what's best for the Club,rather than the mob of shysters we have in place now,whose only intent appears to be a continuous lining of their wallets to the detriment of our crippled Club. ...R.T.I.D.....

And what you two quite obviously fail to comprehend is that money talks, someone of Jamie Carragher's league is feasible and why not. We need to get proper people in now, it's not too late!RTID

Problem is my friend, the venkys will not put any of their own money into the Club,and as the Club is now running at a loss, our lack of money will talk to no-one i'm afraid , this coupled with the fact that everyone in English football must surely now be aware of the mismanaged way in which the Club is being run and will make our club a no go area for all but the desperate. Nobody more than I hopes that i am 100% wrong on all of this, I want my Club to be where i and ALL Rovers fans feel we belong. I missed only 4 home and 8 away matches last season , flying back to Holland within an hour of the final whistle at times and costing me far more than the cost of my season ticket in the process. This season for the first time since i first stood in the Blackburn End with my Dad in 1969 at the age of seven , i have not been to a single match this season so far . There are parasites inhabiting and destroying MY Club and I cannot stand it any longer , it makes me sick to the pit of my stomach.The rest of my famly in Blackburn had,up till last season some 10 seaon tickets between them, this year for the first time i can remember , the number is down to 2. Supporting another team will never be an option,as we are all born and bred Rovers fans, so our only option is to sit and wait for the parasites to leave,then give our full support to the re-building that will surely be needed after they have finished gorging . As i say, I hope & pray that i'm wrong,but it's not looking good ... Full respect to others who feel different though as I know we ALL only want the best for our Club.....R.T.I.D.

" Problem is my friend, the venkys will not put any of their own money into the Club, "

And I doubt very much that they will EVER put any of their own money in.

All they have done is take it out and after the outgoings during this transfer window, it can't be very long before there's nothing left to take out.

they are putting a couple of million every month. Gate receipts only pay Murphy, Etuhu and Rhodes salary. I dont think anyone else will be interested in rovers as John Williams struggled for a few years to sell till Venkys came along. Venkys have said they are here for the LONG term Unfortunately that is reality.

I can't see them being here for the long term really. The way they are going the club will be bankrupt soon and I can't see them footing the bill for too much longer. Can anyone ?

They are NOT "footing the bill" - why do you all insist in spreading this UNTRUTH.

Christ the accounts have only just been published which show FACTS - something that most postings on here completely ignore !!

We are LOSING £2m per month - Venkys are NOT putting any cash in the club - when the financial year ends in June 2013 our losses for the year will be approx £25m less any player sales - If Venkys were putting in £2m per month are accounts would read (approx) - No profit or loss + any player sales.

Stop writing and spreading this pro Venky lies - they have never put a penny in our great club (if they were putting £2m CASH into the club then they would deserve alot of credit - unfortunatly they arnt !!).

All they have done is write a letter stating they can cover our losses - that dosent mean they will, it isnt legally binding.

Shhh. I've been asking about this for a couple of weeks. BRAG have been very quiet ever since Slimy held that fprum. Slippery Minge really did a good job on BRAG it really looks like they have took the King's shilling.

I really would like to see the dynamite information that will bring down the world of football as we know it. Come on BRAG the stage is now there for you to shine. This is your time. I won't hold my breath.

Probably the most shocking and only fact in that dossier was that Venky's didn't know we could be relegated. An embarrassing episode in BRAG's history for sure. Where ARE all those in the knows, with contacts and friends who had seen the alleged evidence?

Was it that Michael Blackburn snoresville that he kept touting on anything and everything?

I thought you might have been perusing the dictionary. Oh sorry, that's another difficult one.Isn't it.

HAHAHAHA whats perusing, absolute classic thicko.
Telling me about dictionary and boom thanks for being there hardwood.

ABSOLUTE RIB ACHE


U T C

I bet most on here agree its you who is the thicko. "Whats perusing?" he asks. Are you joking? How embarrassing to take the micky out of somebody when it's you who is the one we should be laughing at. Look it up thicko in the dictionary.

hahaha I'm so good at this ;-)

Can we clarify one point that is constantly repeated on this site. That Rovers are the laughing stock of football. The only laughing I see is from the same four or five Burnley fans on here. The rest of the football world are looking on with us in despair at what can happen to an English club and sympathy for us fans. Nobody is laughing.

Sorry to disappoint you but whilst not everybody is laughing at Rover's plight, many are. Personally I can't blame them.

Sounds like they are looking for someone in a Director of Football role. Not sure that works, I remember King Kenny doing that here with Harford as manager. Kenny improved his golf handicap - but that was about the only good thing that came out of that appointment!

If they do go that way then Svennis may be actually be ok for that role - as he has excellent International, English and Italian League experience and could be perfect as a 'supremo'.

Best point from the article is that it sounds like Shebby is on his way out....

Frenchy, you've been having to much of the red stuff again if you think Erikson is the answer. Heis totally useless and will just add to the circus feeling at the club. Also anybody that let Jack down shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the club.
I would definitely check out Karl Robinson's personal credentials and his standing in the game as I believe he and Bowyer together couldbe for us what Eddie Howe is to Bournemouth

You are having a laugh I take it? Karl Robinson? He really does have top level experience - Bangor, Rhyl, Oswestry Town, Prescott Cables and the list goes on....oh yes and he is manager at MK Dons....we already had one form there and he didn't work out either. No more trialists or managerial wannabees - we need to bring top level experience into the club at all levels, starting with the manager.

I think most of us know which players are moving on at BRFC.
But who do we want in playing....!!

I'm sure we know a player or two out there in the Football leagues who in their opinion good be a good player for BRFC.

Lets start pointing out the good players in the who could be good signings for Rovers.

Liverpool reserves.....

Position:Defender

livepl res

Date of birth:1 Sep 1993

and also consider...
Tony McMahon Shfld utd

if we need a good young defender who is tough and has ability then maybe you should consider some of the above.

I think we should go for some of these

or maybe you have some in mind...!!!

inocrrect FR and indicative of having been out of the country too long, mk dons are playing very attractive football, they have walloped rovers this season.

robinson is highly thought of....he is not another ince relying on his playing glories

he has already worked (albeit briefly) at ewood under the flawed ince regime. my belief is that he will be a good manager somewhere (maybe not rovers)...but rest assured he is no kean (or ince)

and frenchie - do you really think with the clowns in charge that we will bring in top level experience into the club?.....rearrange these words "bargepole" "touch" "a" "with" "wouldn't"....hughes was a risk....it worked, kidd and ince were risks and they didn't. we have to hope what we get is more hughes than kidd or ince.

As he applied for the defender job at Rovers? Some of you need to get real. why in this galaxy would Carragher, a one club man, ruin the end of his career going to work in a pathetic set up like Rovers.

It's almost like some fans have just woke up from a two year hibernation, so are under the illusion that the club is still being run by professional staff that want what's best for the Club,rather than the mob of shysters we have in place now,whose only intent appears to be a continuous lining of their wallets to the detriment of our crippled Club. ...R.T.I.D.....

And what you two quite obviously fail to comprehend is that money talks, someone of Jamie Carragher's league is feasible and why not. We need to get proper people in now, it's not too late!RTID

Whilst scabby is dallying with Mc Phil and Mr Bowyer, who is doing their original job, the tea lady? Scabby's niece's neighbour perhaps? Or maybe they don't see a need for a future youth set up because if they keep pulling these stunts, nobody will associate themselves with a bunch of halfwitts. Anyone who employs a windbag to run a footbal club has to be deranged. How they dare call Rovers their baby is evil and shows how they use cliches that people like to hear, but with no meaning, just like scabby, they deserve each other, but they do not deserve this club.

not fans crying about your club, Yes I was a season ticket holder for 14 years I don't like what is happening. The only way I can put pressure on this bunch of ************ is to stop giving them money.
