*spreads rumour* "We can all spread rumours"

It wasn’t a game for Wharton to shine in. There was hardly anybody in front of him to pass to. Having said the thst he showed another side of his game. He defended diligently with good discipline like the rest of the Palace team. Another thing I don’t like about City is this tactic where if they are beaten by an opponent who’s breaking away their first reaction is pull the opponent back by the shirt/arm etc. They were at it again yesterday throughout the game. It’s creeping in to other teams as well.

Pure guesswork i'd say she perhaps fancied a change or retirement and they have agreed whilst there is a bit of money coming in because they think they'll replace her with an up and coming - cheaper - new person. That's how it seems to work down there.

Will Still, Danny Rohl and Tom Cleverly to hold talks with Southampton for their vacant head coach job there

We will never know for sure, we can all make untrue rumours like Rovers wouldn't pay Murray release fee which I don't see as the case. Nothing wrong with some loyalty

There’s a difference between the back and forth about the fee (has got tedious, hands up) and wanting him to do well in his career.

yes, I miss read something hence why I deleted my post Yet she has remained here since the takeover. Its seem her role has been advertise by the club so it will be interesting to see what actually has happened or is happening or just a false rumour

They are the current Job adverts on Rovers for their roles plus a loan manager wanted

I’m an East Lancs lad and I think this thread gets increasingly cringe by the week…

Henderson was the one who lost it in front of the BBE when he was playing for Shrewsbury in our promotion from L1 season. Epic tantrum

I went to Goodison Park once, we lost 3 nil with Salgado in one of his first game. We were shocking poor Bramley Moore Dock looks a great stadium and hopefully we can get a FA cup draw there in January

Out of interest, how many Saturday 3pm league games were there last season at Ewood?

Thanks, but he is very clearly just speculating there. He says maybe. When @unleaded knows things he doesn't talk like that, he confidently asserts.

We don't have to spend the entirety of our interest in football on purely Blackburn Rovers current issues in order to not have a tiny club mindset. We can love the club, want it to succeed, think we are a sleeping giant, and still follow the exploits of a Blackburn born, Rovers trained ex player who is a fan. The two things are not mutually exclusive. There's only so much you can talk about current club events without becoming afflicted with clinical depression anyway...

He has the potential to become a world class player. He was hardly going to slum it at this ambitionless circus in the Championship for too long and waste his career. He didn't force the club to sell him, in fact the rumours were that the club basically forced him to leave, saying they needed the money to keep running.

He told me he had a plane to catch so he scooted off rapidly 😂

He’s a Blackburn lad and Rovers fan, I’d be interested in how he does even if he’d never come through our academy. You aren’t an east Lancs lad yourself so you aren’t arsed, fair enough, but there’s nothing ‘tiny’ about it.

Honestly, our club is bigger than this. If I were supporting some National League club, then I would love to follow the rise of an academy player. But what a f*cking tiny club mindset.

A farewell to Goodison Park, the first away ground I ever did, Everton 0-0 Rovers (26/9/98) a ground full of history no doubt, but an awful fan experience as witnessed on my last visit to L4 for Everton 2-3 Rovers (Paul Ince’s first game in charge - 16/8/08) as we were on the back row of the lower tier and could barely see the pitch! Hope Rovers get an away day at Bramley Moore Dock soon!

Before the restructure....

No surprise here, but for the sake of completeness Not involved in matchday squad today Vale - score/update - currently injured - final game of season

Do you Chaddy?

How long did he take to leave the pitch after he was subbed off? 😉

Yes I know that but do you for sure RF99.

I actually refereed that match. Tony himself rang me to do it and I told him it would be an honour and it was. As well as being a part of a fitting tribute to Tony I got to actually referee Tugay. On recognition Tony gave us all a Rovers watch which I still wear.
