I am not sure the manager is too impressed with Bentley lately, so I would have my doubts about him signing the player wherever he goes.

Nicko do you get the impression that Sparky leaving is likely to upset a significant amount of his bargain buys?

Need be we can always send Samba round to have a word with Bentley.

I think the more pressing question is what happens to all of the posters with 'sparky' in their names... ;)

me thinks the mods will be working overtime with 'can i change me name' requests!! :lol:

I don't want to pull the old 'I've been around the block and know a good boss when I see one' line...but.

I've been around the block and know a good manager when I see one. And Coppell is that man.

You just know at times when someone is real. He is.

If anyone wants him please feel free to contact and I will do some tapping. Don't know the geezer but I think he is worth chasing.

Please do, Coppell has worked wonders at previous clubs, Brighton and Brentford in particular. Also a brilliant job with Reading.

He has a record of over achieving, which is what we need.

I guess he wouldn't change too much if he came in, and work with the current crop.

Other than Coppell, I would like Shearer or Ince, but after that, I really don't know who I would like.

One thing I do know is that I don't want Allardyce, I think it would be a backward step for the club. After the hard work to increase the the attendances last season, I think they would dip if he was appointed. Plus, the media would have a frenzy if Blackburn played his style of football.

I'd be more worried about Samba wanting to follow them out of the door.

I just had a look at Paul Ince's very short managerial career on Wikipedia and he seems like a gamble worth taking in my opinion. He is young, hungry, knows football inside out, has his badges, played at the highest level (home and abroad), has the Man United culture..........remind you of anyone?

I would rather take a gamble than watch BFS's style of football.

Spanish sources suggest Allardyce is nailed on. Anyone still taking bets?

There is some awful trash being pumped out by Sky and the likes right now...so I would not fall for that one yet.

Just a thought - look at who is linking him with the Rovers job and ask yourself why.

Sky are linking him, so they don't have to have him in the studio, maybe he smells?

If any player wants to follow Hughes, please do. But you have to pay good money for it.

The new manager wouldn't want a team of unsettled players. So, let's make some money with the transfers, keep the same scouts and buy wisely.

The Sam for Rovers stuff began in The Sun when his mate wrote it. Suddenly it gets legs.

But why would Sam want to be linked to the job right now? If he was getting it he would not leak it. Maybe he is using this to get his face back in the papers and telly.

Especially at this time.

Think about it...

Nicko, are you going to start a SMS or e-mail service, delivering football news?

I am not able to do my job efficiently at the moment ;)

This thread is like a drug.

It ###### me up, but I love it! Keep up the good work!

He wants punditry work during Euro 2008?

No, he wants to be in the Man City frame...

How about we have a raffle. One pound entry fee, with the money going to nicko's betting fund and the winner getting an article linking them with the rovers job? We can see how far that can go.

If Chelsea get Scolari in the end you will be able to find me under a large cloud of cigar smoke...before plunging on the Rovers Next Manager market.

Nicko could have soooo much fun in this thread. We all know this site is monitored by other reporters as things mentioned or said on here end up in the national press.

I have just seen Steve McClaren in McDonald's at Ewood.
