BLACKBURN Rovers will not be releasing a statement on Steve Kean's future today - as his managerial position continues to hang in the balance.

As revealed in the Lancashire Telegraph this morning, lengthy talks have been held by the owners over Kean's future with a decision to replace him understood to be all-but made.

Rovers have this morning declined to comment other than to say there will be no statement today, with negotiations expected to continue.

'Negotations' set to continue. Begging, blackmail and blatant lies set to continue more like.

I would not be surprised if he stayed however he must be the laughing stock of football, including the dressing room. Also, the more this goes on the more stupid Venky's look. Whatever the outcome he must be in a very weakened position.

He is clearly out of his depth at any level.

Just buying strikers to plaster over the cracks that is our poor defending (cheers for the help Colin..) was going to be found out sooner or later.

Get rid and unite the Blue & White army!!

If he does go it won't be any thanks to Mr Cryer, the man who has helped prolong Keans reign at the expense of the fans.

I simply do not know where you are coming from on this. Andy Cryer is a reporter who tells it how it is and has written enough critical articles and done enough critical interviews telling all concerned how useless the manager is. You can not ask more than what he has done. Remember he is an employee of the Lancashire Telegraph and must abide by the regulations.
He gets too much criticism on here when from day one he has been on the supporters side and defenders us in the media.

Is Eckersley playing? says...

Sky Sports have said 'the situation will be monitored' That means to me he continues as before. Will anyone be going to the Wolves match?

Maybe at last I can go and watch my football club again. Whats the thoughts about Steve Copull I think he is available and knows his stuff ? They have to get a proper manager though not Black and co.

All this speculation as to the new manager is a waste of time. And also disloyal. Why would you sack a manager who has led you to the top of the Championship?

To replace him with Alan Shearer? A no-good selfish individual who is only out for himself? Jesus wept you ingrates.

If anything you should be thanking Kean. He brought Jordan Rhodes in for chrissakes. And Kean should be negotiating his pay rise, not a severance package. No respect.

And you still stay away from Ewood? Call yourself fans.
