Gestede has links to Steve Kean and Thats no coincidence in my opinion. As we know, Kean had no experience as a manager, but replaced Alardyce and we know how that ended. Not only that, but Alardyce sued Kean and if Im not mistaken ended up with an out settlement. We now have Gestede throwing his weight around by alegedly, threatening a fan with legal action and I would not be surprised if this with the LT is down to him. He simply knows the right people in my opinion who were here from the start and his appointment has nothing to do with his ability to do the job. Just as Kean did before him, this will also end in relegation, but we could be stuck with him for a while.

Kargbo needs firing off down the leagues for a 6 month loan in Jan to learn how to actually be a winger in England. Everything we feared about importing cheap continentals into the rough and tumble of the Championship and the British weather is coming to fruition and it's not even November yet. Instead of developing they start going backwards rapidly because they've not experience of the struggle at a club like this and they've bollocks for the scrap and neither have most of those around them. This was all so predictable so why was it allowed to happen ? Commission plain and simple, move them in, get them games, move them on. As proven by the last shower of shite Ennis, Leo. Tel etc they ALL got moved on quickly and they all got a small fee. And the agents running this show ALL got their commission because the advantage of cheap wage foreign players is you'll always find them somewhere else back abroad and they'll be only too glad to go after a dire experience here. This club is now an agency vehicle again existing to get guys Championship mins and move them on again it's the budget version of the Kean/Anderson scam.

All three!!

Anything close to what we've shown for the majority of this season and we'll get pumped. I don't know what team we should play or what positions they should play in but it's going to need to be a lot fucking better than what we've seen recently.

Iley and Ince.

It's true, a lot happened after Gudjonson's mistake, but if he controls as he should do, the rest doesn't happen. Probably our best chance led to a goal for Swansea.

I’m coming back up north for this one. Mainly because the wife’s away and don’t think I’ve got the patience to look after a baby and a toddler by myself so will seek refuge with the grandparents. There’ll be 3 generations at Ewood in my dad, me and my eldest. Pity the latest generation won’t get to experience what I got to in my youth (any time soon anyway). Unfortunately I haven’t watched Rovers win at home for a few years now (not through a lack of trying, just unlucky). Hopefully that spell can be broken but I don’t have my hopes up. I’m normally more glass half full but struggling to see how we survive this season at the moment.

Must win against Stoke on Saturday to stop the rot, the run of games after that is really tough. Ismael appears untouchable regardless of results so we just have to hope he gets it all to click together before its too late.

Ismael et al are blind to the fact that the players are full of mistakes, and the majority aren’t good enough to play at this level, so the default position is to blame others such as the referee, the EFL and the Telegragh etc.

VI appears to be unsackable, we will surely be playing L1 next season

Good signing but he won't be able to save us from relegation

By end of November, my prediction is we will be firmly rock bottom and we won't be able to get out of it. Relegation is staring at us in the face. If we goes down this time round, we'll be down there for a very long time.

In terms of technical quality we probably have a better set of players than when we were last relegated, that was a really awful team. But its a different game when you're low on confidence and scrapping three games a week. Then you need players who are physical, motivated, bonded as a team and dig out results. I cant see any sign of that.

Ismael

It could be argued that our best centre back partnership both left the club this summer 😉

Have your say…

I am not particularly keen on Gestede but surely the main question is how has a guy who joined on work experience and with nothing on his CV about running a football club ended up running ours? I still - even with Venkys total incompetence and disengagement, cant wrap my head around that one. Until we answer that one we can all want Gestede replaced but they will just make another terrible appointment.

You can’t see the clothes peg round the back perhaps..? 😉

Dreadful tea, dreadful head coach, dreadfully run club. Relegation awaits.

I feel for Season Ticket Holders who were duped into paying good Money for this shyte.

Maybe it's a baggy shirt.

Early in the season for a must-win but… Head to Head https://www.brfcs.com/football/match/1386653/blackburn-stoke-city

It's all a bit boring isn't it? The fans have no desire, the team has no desire (apart from maybe Cantwell and Tronstad who do look as though they play for the badge), the board certainly has no desire. It's verging on what's even the point in any of it?????

Yep,who wudda thunk it Cesus.

Ismael being sacked is a fanciful notion but it isn't going to happen. He is one of the Holy Trinity and just about wedded to the other two as you can be.
