John Eustace - our head coach

And JDT had plenty of rumblings from day one. All anecdotal but I never got the feeling that Ewood ever took to him - and I certainly haven’t seen any pining for him since he left (the said pining a few on here get accused of). -

Think people are confusing brfcs with real life again. Not sure I’ve heard a single negative comment about him ‘IRL’. All this ‘folk are against him because they see him as a Swag, appointment, a yes man’ is pure brfcs stuff. He seems more popular with match goers than JDT ever was already. -
Big pizza, but a sugar free drink - smart lad.

What’s that got to do with traffic at Ewood?

What leadership qualities do you see in Hyam?

Cracking following considering the ever increasing debacle of this season - plus £35 a pop for a dinner time Sky game. The away support is the best it’s been for a long, long time, this club and its fanbase is dormant, but the potential is still there - but yeah, ‘shit support’, ‘nobody would ever buy us’, ‘Bury’. -
If you don’t like traffic don’t move next to a football ground.

So if you don’t think we’ll win at Leeds, as the evidence points to it being unlikely, you have a ‘negative attitude in life’? So I presume we should all just predict us to win every single match? -

Just cliched banality; ‘no excuses’, ‘be positive’, ‘togetherness’, ‘shut out the noise’. Don’t bother reading or listening to it, you’ll feel better for it. -

Slopey shoulder to the Club Secretary, who’d have thought it… -

Even if it was a manager decision, not financial, why are they loaning out the captain when said manager is about to be removed from post? -

Despite having a very good season by our standards last term, plenty simply never took to him. They much prefer your standard lower league conveyor belt manager - you hear it at Ewood, you see it on this thread. -
2024/25 Season Tickets

Don’t you buy a match ticket most weeks? Is that not doing the same? In fact he’ll make more out of you. -

If JDT’s record this season had been as poor as this mon’s we’d be pretty much down already. -

Not a chance they are pricing weekend games at £15-£20. Those games are all about Swag fleecing away support, the home support is an afterthought. -

Hedges would struggle to get a game at Accy? Behave, Rev 😀 -

Yeah but it’s the biggest borough in the country, or something… -
Venky’s, HMRC…The Plot Thickens ?
Mattyblue replied to tomphil's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
You’ve said that about twenty times. August will come and go and they will still be in situ (possibly with accompanying statement #100 outlining their unwavering commitment). -
Smoking a joint in the tunnel explains it then.

23rd March they went on sale last year, and we ‘didn’t know what league we’d be in’ then either (well, think we probably did). You’d think they’d be desperate for some cash flow… -
Rovers Rumours & Speculation
Mattyblue replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Finance bod who somehow ended up running the club in the Lambert/Coyle era. Standard Venky madhouse antics. -
Of course they are. Swag’s in touching distance of his stretch bonus.
-
That’s a different issue than if the club should have given him a new deal in 2021 - which the answer is yes, of course they should.
-
No issue at all in giving him a contract in 2021, he was obviously improving in 20/21 - 40 appearances, so an established player, well up on previous years, culminating in Copa America. Of course such a player who was a £7million signing should get a new deal to protect the club’s investment.
