As someone else said, sack this clown and bring in Duff.

We're going down, might as well make it entertaining (and uncomfortable for the hierarchy)

Duff won’t come. It’s a poisoned chalice for anyone with a reputation to ruin. Whoever we get will be like Val, off a scrap heap hoping for one last chance. Lee Bowyer for example. Which is shit, but is where we are. 
 

Regardless, we might as well roll the dice cos we can’t be any worse.

We have to be realistic about the pond we’ll be fishing in. 

We ended up with Val presumably because no one better would touch the job, despite being in the play off position.

The squad is far worse off than it was twelve months ago and whoever comes in has those above him dictating everything.

So with all that in mind, would Robbie Savage be worth a punt? Has a good win % and the sort of Eustace type character that could bond the players?

He should be gone now. A win on Tuesday just means they won’t touch him until after the Norwich game on Saturday. And that’s just time and games wasted. It’s just a carbon copy of 2017.

Do not bank on a win V Wednesday on Tuesday 

[Ghost7]

Is he gone yet? We need to act fast.

I'm pretty sure he would. 

His only managerial position to date has been Shelbourne FC and he's been out of work for the last 8 months.

He would jump at the chance to manage in The Championship

Fair enough!

We want nobody near this club who could potentially be a manager of the future, once the circus has left town.

The club right now is setup to fail, at every level, why on earth would we want Duff, Dunn or Savage involved in the current climate?

Henning Berg was a fantastic player for this club, a Premiership winner and he's soiled his copy book with some for his brief time here, but elevated his stature in our house by taking the rats to the high court, but you get what I mean I'm sure.

These owners are poison and don't represent the Blackburn Rovers that we all know and love in any way.

VENKYS OUT - NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.

I don't really want any ex player until they've cut their teeth at a level where I'd be happy to take them on even if they weren't an ex player. The sentiment is virtually meaningless to me, I want results.

[Norbert Rassragr]

If we're going down and don't care about the future, we might as well rehire Coyle or Steve Voldercunt. Go hard or go home.

He was spot on.

We are run by a bunch of rats from Pune, not Jack Walker and his team on the ground who only wanted good this club.

Do you disagree?

Comparisons to the 1995 winning era are facile and only show that Mowbray was part of the system at that point, dumbing down expectations to feather his own nest.

[Tomphil2]

Why are people saying daft things like Damien Duff etc ?

What credentials does he have to save a championship club in freefall ?

Naff all except he played here over 2 decades ago then turned into a little turd when he left, honestly i'd drive Mowbray here before i'd be daft enough to give it to Duff or someone like that.

The proof is in the pudding it needs a Eustace or near as damn it.

He was well thought of and did a good job at Shelbourne by winning them their first title for a few years. No one around these days has experience in dragging a club up from free fall? Mowbray tried and failed with us and has been pretty pants in jobs he’s had since.
