Well done to Callum, but I bet the Nobbers will be in for him before anyone at Ewood woke up to the fact. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beyond bizarre for posters to discount potential managers on that basis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, so might Pearson, or Hughton, or Warnock.....its all irrelevant as we are stuck with the plonker and his mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

To be fair he didn't have to play either of the old firm, which isn't to take anything away from the fact that they were worthy winners. Oddly, the beaten finalists also avoided the old firm.

Lucimo 354 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Sheff weds appoint Darren Moore. Another manager who has Mowbrays number. Let's not rule Wednesday out of surviving just yet..... They could now make a move up that table which will put us right in the manure Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It just gets worse. It'll be all pals together down at Brockhall today. No extra training on Sunday to try and sort out the back four. I think we should change our name to Blackburn Depressing Rovers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Richard Oakley 389 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Just now, chaddyrovers said: wasn't he recommend to our owners by someone I seem to remember reading an article or two, at the time, that suggested Appleton wanted out of Blackpool; that going there had been a mistake. However, in light of what you've said, consider Artell and Rowett as in the running. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think you can just do that or everyone who ever wanted to leave a contract would just resign and then sign with someone else. https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11688/8389166/Blackburn-set-to-name-Michael-Appleton-as-new-boss-after-agreeing-compensation-package-with-Blackpool Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Doubt there would be a big loophole like that to enable clubs to wriggle out of paying compensation. Unless Derek Shaw was involved in drawing up the contract, obviously.

roverandout 1768 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 I always thought Appleton had the potential to be a good rovers manager. He just wasn't given long enough unlike snake boy now in charge Quote Link to post Share on other sites
1864roverite 2621 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Plenty of names being thrown around! However if we want to get out of this league into the promised land we need a manager with experience and nothing less will do! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
