I think the DOF model here was always going to end in failure, with Venky's always causing issues. Most of the things Gregg has introduced behind the scenes have been good but they were still only trying to correct the previous 12 years of mismanagement. With us now going for Eustace it looks like the entire model the club were adopting with a playing identity from the kids team upwards has been jettisoned, so I am not sure it is worthwhile it is for him to stay. "Most of his best work goes unseen" They used to say that about Corry Evans. I'm far from convinced in the ability of this lot to get Eustace or anyone for that matter over the line within a reasonable time scale. I think it's a bit premature to be talking of models being abandoned at this stage but if the model of selling anything of value that moves were to be ditched I'd be all for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be fantastic if someone finally really spilled the beans. I loved his honesty tomphil, wasn't scared to speak his mind and held those above him to account on broken transfer promises. Fingers crossed on NDA, I hope he comes out and slaughters them. Edited February 9 by Gav 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think worse is to come. I don't see the investigation into them being over quickly, they have already found 1 issue so the Indian authorities will go through everything and Modi will use it to show he is cracking down on billionaires. I sense the budget being cut to around £8-10m in the summer with the sale or release of any player on more than £5k a week. With support from Venky's going down to £3m if we are lucky. So similar to the trust's support all those years ago. I also expect a 25% increase in season tickets with Waggot saying we can't expect cash from the owners all the time and now is time for us to help them out. I wouldn't be surprised if MK Dons have a better budget than us in League 2 by the time the end of the summer arrives. In your meeting Glenn and Josh, were there any comments from Waggot on how bad it could get or was he overly optimistic for the future.

Which will have some merit if he emerges from all this unscathed. I note no-one objects to all and sundry labelling Waggott as a spiv, 2nd hand car dealer (even though he obviously isn't a 2nd hand car dealer) etc etc!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martonrover Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Forgive my lack of IT skills (I’d fit in well at Rovers) but David Anderson of the Mirror has tweeted that Eustace has accepted the job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speeeeeeedie Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Am I right in saying that JDT has gone but no official statement from the club has been issued confirming it. Am I also right in saying that John Eustace is coming in but no official statement from the club has been issued confirming it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has to be a major worry that all the various supporters groups should be all over, demanding answers from Waggott and the Board once the managerial search (which no doubt we'll manage to turn into another fiasco) is over.

It seems you're right in saying JDT has gone, as for the rest, who knows? You don't expect Rovers PR Dept. to actually do anything do you?

Popular Post Danishfan Posted February 9 Popular Post Share Posted February 9 I have been a fan of Jon Dahl Tomasson since he made his debut on Danish national team in 1997. I have followed him and his results as a player and a coach, even after he stopped as a pro player himself. I followed him during his years in Milan, Stuttgart, Villa Real and Feyenoord. He was a great player and has now turned into a great coach. I think maybe I am his biggest fan. However, I have never been fan/supporter of any of the teams he has coached - untill june 202 Blackburn Rovers somehow melted my heart ❤️ Just to say, I am still a Rovers supporter, even though JDT is not here anymore 😞 He is perfect for the Swedish job. As a Dane I am having a bit of a hard time about it. JDT is Denmarks all time topscorer for DK. He is our national football hero on the line with Michael Laudrup. He is former assistent to head coach for DK. And now off to Sweden. Sweden is very lucky. I am envious. I want JDT for Danish NT coach ❤️ 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazza Posted February 9 Share Posted February 9 Could have been a lot worse of a choice than Eustace. We'll see how it goes. I wanted Damien Johnson to be caretaker for tomorrow. I wonder how long it will be before the fans start calling the new boss "Useless Eustace". I'll give it 18 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
