But fans do have a right to be sceptical any poster on this board could say the spoke to someone and make a story up (not saying you have) and then say sorry not saying who told me…without the source it’s always going to be debated

Why would anyone want to see inside the dressing room? Sky will broadcast players taking a shit soon enough. VAR at least has a purpose. Decisions are more accurate now.

Your views and opinions matter not to me - you are an irrelevance with seemingly little knowledge about the real world. If you don't think my postings are credible then I suggest you simply ignore.

Well that’s an easy answer chaddy if you take everything at face value then more the fool you….behind the scenes at rovers over this last 15 years and even more so the last 2/3 years it’s been a shitshow so fans have every right to be sceptical and not take everything at face value just because someone says something remember we had Maguire signed promo done and that was even failed

They have told you they are align so why not believe it instead of this they not be but could be, we just don't know bollocks

Get more people interesting and closer to football action. What is wrong with seeing if it is going to popular or not. Works in other sports so why not football? what's wrong with footage inside the dressing room? Its all about what you want and not seeing from other people who want this. It is common place in NBA to interview players and head coaches during games VAR is a pile of shit. takes too long, fans in stadium left in the dark, refs on the pitch are frighten to make decisions, but we fetch in VAR despite all these concerns but you are in favour of it. But complaining about a minor change to coverage See above to your question This is minor change whilst VAR was game changing decision by the football authorities which has made the time delay to the games, zero communication to fans within Stadium and even fans at home, etc. That has changed the game forever, an interview with player coming off or footage inside the dressing room isn't anything like VAR change has been.

You clearly arent reading what I am putting. I never said they arent aligned. In fact my point is that we wont know either way.

someone from the serbian 2nd division

Transfers will happen soon. Just waiting on other agents to cross every other team off the list until they get to Rovers. Then the dross will flow in

Yourself are always looking for something not there between Gestede/Owen and Ismael aren't Align. exactly, but 1000% wont name who this well respected journalist is there tho. Most journalists have a twitter account to post things online even if their news paper or other media to post the story very good example points Massive gamble for Derby playing that amount of money for an unknown striker from MLS

It is possible Eustace's agent was enquiring about other jobs on the quiet not everything in football has a journo on the end of it. Anyway i'm sure font of knowledge and truth Nixon could clear it up if someone asked and by the way enquiring about a job and sticking your cv in are two different things.

As a general rule of thumb, and not just for sport, I find it best to look at whatever pleases Americans and head firmly in the opposite direction.

Fair enough. I just don't believe you. Rohl at Sheffield Wednesday has been applying for other jobs and that has been all over the media. I think this supposedly well respected yet mystery journalist would have published a story about a Championship manager applying for another Championship job much lower down the table rather than confiding in you who he happened to know.

Certainly Cantwell, around 12 months ago - he had a few options available to him, but JE sold him the club / role / etc.

Set your expectations lower. You’ll probably still end up disappointed but it won’t feel so bad.

Yep! You really don't understand journalism or have a clue how it works do you? Do you really think John Eustace applying for a job at another club merited publishing a story in a serious publication? Maybe there would have been a story if it had been Pep, Klopp, Arteta etc Did you see reports anywhere about the other jobs we are given to understand Eustace was interested in (Coventry, PNE, Stoke, WBA)? There are a number on this MB who pick things up from various sources who posted about Eustace applying for other jobs There is a plethora of behind-the-scene activities and matters in a football club at any one time with very few of these seeing the light of day in media/press for various reasons. Even at a local level, Bayes and, to a lesser degree, Jackson will have a knowledge of the many behind-the-scene activities and matters at Rovers but you will not see these in the LT or aired on BBC Lancashire, again for various reasons.

Goodo. Looking forward to who the next Rudy Gestede randomer rocks up at Brockhall. I'm surprised there haven't been any links with anyone else from the J-League, or was that John Parks work to get Yuki in last summer?

it`s all lies,spin and gravytrain riding,until the rotten core are overthrown it`s always going to be this way

I know this was a rhetorical question but I can’t say I love modern football one little bit.

Gonna rematch the 3 stooges video to see what else was promised

https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co.uk/sport/25055813.blackburn-contract-talks-futures-three-key-players/ This was Gestede quoted on 1st April. Nearly 3 months on and total and utter failure to do any of what he was talking about. Giving Forshaw another year all he has managed.

There is your right my point was he would/should have known this before taking the job….as stated it is all for there to see and played out publicly by JDT

Every time I see this topic as a "red hot thread" I think we've signed someone 😪

You don't give up a secure job when sat in the top 6 in February, in with a shot of becoming a Premier League manager, and gamble your career and reputation on an uphill struggle to avoid League One at skint Derby unless you are desperate to get away. Somehow I don't believe that the hours drive it saved was the crucial factor. Something deeply, deeply wrong behind the scenes and has been for a while and 'alignment' isn't the word for it Funny how travel keeps cropping up here as a reason for people leaving. Convenient because location is one thing the wretches cannot affect or control yet doesn't appear to be the issue at any other North West club. They make out like we are Plymouth, Norwich or some other distant backwater.

still concentrating on the lower intestines of european football,no doubt there will be links to someone this week
