Cost cutting will cost Cheston his job sooner or later. The only positive I can see.

Wayne in the LT needs sympathy and help. Hes either a Dingle or has "issues" 

Or both.

I have a friend on Facebook who, looking from the outside, thinks it is sad Coyle left because "he seemed like a nice man doing his best in difficult circumstances"

And Jimmy Savile was a religious man, who worked hard for charity. That's Facebook for ya...

I would imagine the sacking came NOT because we lost to MANURE but the way we lost in terms of the types of goals we conceded.

Yeah, that must be it. Terrible goals to concede. So different to the other 49 we've let in this season.

It's just amazing to think how much better our league position would've been if those 49 goals were 30-yard screamers instead.

Agreed. But to put things into perspective, Norwich are 7th in the table just below the playoffs and they have conceded 47.

That's very true. They've also scored 58 though (compared to our 36), which is a massive bonus. Along with 15 wins (v 7). They haven't been stuck in the bottom 3 practically all season either. I think what I'm getting at is that there are plenty of reasons to have removed Coyle, rather than the manner of the two goals conceded on Sunday - one of which was scored by a player who earns more in a week than spent by the football club (that Venkys claim to run) on players in the last four transfer windows.

Almost as many highs as lows under Coyle's tenure, according to the LT.

Owen Coyle - the highs and lows of his time at Blackburn Rovers

Edit: Yes... This is not fake news!

Couldn't believe these when I read it.  Has the LT been infiltrated by undercover SEM agents? Akin to the new Pravda

I know the guy who said he did a good job. He never has anything bad to say about rovers. No matter what.

I must have missed the highs !!!!!!!

The defeat against Norwich on the opening day really set the tone for his tenure.

You know times are bad when defeats are tagged as a 'Season Highlight'.

As a footnote to this Nixon obviously didn't have a clue Mowbray was going to be appointed when he accused Rovers fans of being naive on twitter for expecting us to have someone lined up to replace his bum chum.

i met owen years ago maybe 15 years ago,his lad used to play football for wilpshire wanderers whilst my lad was with mill hill,they were different age groups but he was there every week watching his lad obviously when the dingle fixtures allowed.he took some stick and gave some back,after all we were there watching our lads,he was a pretty decent guy always spoke,and if his lads game half time was before ours he would have a butchers at our game,ask who your lad was etc.

rovers were a renouned premier team and bumley were knocking around the top six in the champs,never entered my head he would be our manager and when he became rovers manager i thought maybe he might do something but how wrong i was,never had a chance,wrong appointment out of his depth and turned into a bloody liar,what people do for money.

He also said this morning that Lowe was in as number two to Adkins as they both have friends in high places at ewood..presume he meant Senior.Finished the tweet by saying Dunny had been snubbed so had no idea he would be first team coach

So just to confirm, Nixon knew the square root of f*** all on this one!?

I'd imagine he was sacked already but Venkys hadn't got round to doing it.
