Brownie Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Event at The Hordens Tuesday 10th Feb 2009 Following up on the great successes of the David Speedie and Matt Jansen evenings, we have another Rovers legend but this time one still currently with the Rovers. Miimms was an integral part of the Jack Walker revolution, playing huge part in Rovers' promotion year under Kenny Dalglish and playing during the 1994/95 Premiership winning season. Bobby was brought back to Blackburn by Paul Ince and is now a valued member of Sam Allardyce's backrrom team. Do not miss the chance to question Mimms about the Premiership winning season and how life under Allardyce is different than under Ince. Tickets as always are £5 and payment can be made by paypal to david.brownie@ukonline.co.uk or over the bar at The Hordens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brightonrover Posted December 26, 2008 Share Posted December 26, 2008 As Bobby is both currently connected to the club and has links to a previous generation of players there's a fantastic potential for fascinating insights into the club. He must have lots of great tales about when he first joined as a player and the difference between now and then within the club (how it's run etc). It surely wouldn't take a trained investigative journalist/Michael Parkinson to winkle out some stuff about Ince and his staff and how they related to the players (to confirm or deny some of the rumours) and the difference Allardyce has made at the club. Certainly hoping to get to this one and Well Done to Brownie for these events! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ste B Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 could we ask Bobby to hold the mic up to his mouth ? Might have had a chance hearing if we didnt have people chuntering on about how "bloody hot it is" Can we ask him to be careful he doesn't drop the mike ?

I think we'd hear Mimmsy without a mike and standing in the smoking shelter ! Apparently. according to Andy Bayes, he's hilarious. Could be the best one yet and possibly the most interesting with reference to Ince and Allardyce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste B Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 Was not a dig your way, more at Mac who was one of those chuntering away. Intend to be there again for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue n White Rover Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 MAybe you could ask him the difference in the training regimes between Big Sam and Ince. What the players have done differently and the quality between the two managers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan75 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Keepers dont appear to be able to catch the ball as much these days and tend to punch Is this due lightweight balls, (not the keepers) modern day gloves or the lack of ability. Is the game developing into a non physical sport - are keepers over protected these days. who was your biggest influence in becoming a keeper. Brownie you may find some more questions here.

tonyoz Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 1) Was Ince really that bad? 2) How do you weigh up the choices: sitting on the bench earning a comfortable wage - or leaving for a less successful club but playing every week? 3) How do you know when you have found a new goalkeeping gem? Who is the best young goalkeeper around at the moment? and what about a Youtube-type record of the event so that far flung supporters can enjoy it?

Amo Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 1) Was Ince really that bad? I can't see him making any controversial remarks about the guy who hired him. You'll probably get a generic "He was great with the lads, but it didn't work out for him" reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brownie Posted February 3, 2009 Author Share Posted February 3, 2009 7 days to go. More questions required please. Anything about Rocky, Ince, Sam, Diouf ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
