They picked one of the players with no sense of the change over the last 15 years and wrote him a script. We have seen this a few times over the years(that scum fullback etc) including Dunny. They are running out of wiggle room....the CABAL must have had a meeting and thought of ways to deflect the blame WITHOUT too much getting to Pune. There is no such thing as a Board of Directors just Sohail and his quislings. The kitchen table in Pune HAS to hear more about our 'deathfall' . How can we get in personal difficulty if all we are doing is challenging them?

Come on Todd himself (or his ‘social media manager’) posted on Insta that everything’s hunky dory, so defo nothing in it and he will be here 2nd February leading us to a glorious 21st place.

Well he better be learn off Tronstad quickly. Not sure that the right role for him but I dont what role is the right one for him.

Not only his connections but a massive pay rise and at least being a Premier League manager short term You didnt respect them reasons, you said that he shouldnt consider those reasons.

I just can't believe that anybody thinks that there isn't a possibility of the Cantwell 50 games thing being true, with the way this club has treated other players over the years. It might be, or might not be. But to just dismiss it ignore everything that has happened here since this lot rocked up.

We have needed him from the start of the season, especially when Hyam was sold. His body is incapable of being a Championship footballer.

I know all that but needs must. Time for him to step up when we need him Come 1st of January, O'Riordan will be recall and we can move Miller to right back/wing back.

I can understand why Rob Edwards couldn't turn down the Wolves job cos of his connections to the club which I respected but its a massive rebuilding job there for next season

Possibly also also trying to discourage adverse comments on social media, like they're monitoring it and fans could get in trouble?

Why Venkys continue to own us and wont try and sell, despite making large annual losses but likewise wont try and chase promotion to where the big money is...is one of lifes great mysteries. Seems completely pointless. Unless theres some dodgy tax write off scheme going on...which is more likely I suspect. If a billion pound company has a couple of small loss makers, it may save them more in tax gains than the losses we make.

Massive trouble next season whatever league we are in thats the plan. Would rather see James Edmondson promoted if we're not going to replace him properly.

No, and it never will. They will still be here in 10 years time with them crowing about how competitive we are a league or two lower.

Great news for the lad. From no-where really, complete unknown when signed, no real club pedigree...to performing like he has and now a soon to be international. Good on him. Fuck me though, our squad is in bits at the moment. I know our owners have asset stripped for years, and the summer window was an abomination....but that must be 8 or 9 first teamers unavailable now. Any championship side would struggle with that.

To be fair I think we can win tomorrow. I just don't fancy us in the games after, especially with our injury situation, you just know Cantwell will "break down" again soon. Alebiosu going to afcon is a huge blow too. Would love to be wrong and come out of that batch of games with some breathing room, but we'll see.

Last I saw, Carter was at Freight Island in Manny last night (judging by his Instagram).

Seems a bit of a generalisation, and not something I'd heard of. And in Alebiosu's case, it was reported he had to apply for a Nigerian passport months ago in order to be eligible, so hardly a shock to him.

Good one!

Carter has played 1 senior game this season, and that was 3 months ago, he hasn't even featured for the U21s since August. He will not be ready to start, They have already brought him back from injury too early twice this season, so will be cautious of doing so again. As such, I would be amazed if we even see him on the bench much before new year

Thank you

Massive blow for us but delighted for the player. His form has been excellent. Where we go? Isn't Carter back shortly. Maybe next week. I would be tempt to go back 4-2-3-1 with TGH at right back, Miller and McLoughlin at centre back with Ribeiro at left back. Unless Carter is back and till 1st of January when we recall O'Riordan back

Well its was @KidderStreetNoisepodcast with GM that it was Suhail wasnt around and Coar seem to running things 39 mins into this podcast that comment is made

Brilliant again Herbie, you're a natural. You'll be on Match of the Day if you keep this up!

What bugs the life out of me is that Blackburn Rovers fans are not militant, we are not. Blackburn Rovers fans are not excessively abusive and DO support the team. The level of support from the fans, when continually having custard pies thrown in their face is far greater than what the owners would get at any other club, I am absolutely convinced of it.

Yep, from Eustace going onwards it has been such a total farce they no longer can keep a lid on it. They got lucky with a few decent managers in a row that managed to keep the show on the road and crowds stayed fairly stable (still far too low, but steady), leaving the regime to quietly get on with their cutbacks. But like everything in life, too many cut backs and overall neglect has led to the dam breaking (quite literally in some ways) and they are scuttling around like insects when a rock is lifted.

oh I don't know, He will likely never player the Tronstad role well, but he will do it badly 😉
