  1. Pity, you would be intrigued! Think Nicko would give me a bob or two for it!
  2. You can think what the feck you like. In my working life, I have dealt with the buying and selling of businesses and insolvencies - have you? If Mowbray resigns or is axed tomorrow, I would put lots and lots and lots of money on Alex Neil taking over. I guess you would love to know why !?
  3. WRONG! Mowbray took us down - he told us in Blues' Bar he was hired to keep us up and MOWBRAY FAILED!
  4. I would take Coyle over Mowbray any day of the week and that tells you just how low Mowbray's stock is in my eyes. IMO, Waggott, Mowbray and Venus were all involved in the Brockhall fiasco - given their senior management positions in the club, it would be staggering if they weren't- and in my eyes, their plans and the way it was seemingly executed are unforgiveable and stink the house out.
  5. Think you can forget that. IMO, best we can hope for are loans even if Armstrong is sold and if he is, we'll be lucky to clear £7/8million. I don't think there is any doubt Rovers are in one great feckin mess. I would think there is a 80% chance Rovers will be in administration by Christmas. If we get off to a poor start, I think the Venky's will say feck this, cut their losses and run. Sadly, over the course of my working life, in a professional capacity, I've had dealings with many failed businesses and I can tell you, IMO, all the signs are there at Rovers and and the alarm bells are screaming in my head.
  6. I think they are all useless. What the feck is the point of changing staff and keeping, IMO, this absolute idiot purporting to be a football manager and tactical genius. IMO, Mowbray, Venus, Lowe and Benson are all way, way below par and that is being polite. I've been saying this for years and very sadly, I've been proven right.
  7. If anyone ever talks to me about Mowbray being humble, honest, man of integrity etc then I will metaphorically smash them in the face. It gives me no pleasure in being proven right about Waggott and Mowbray almost from the day they first set foot in Ewood. If you've 'been around the block a few times' in life then you can smell 'em and I've always thought Waggott and Mowbray stink.
  8. Managerless and covid hit Swansea will hand Rovers an opening day win.
  9. 1) No, 1 Dec 2) No, 1 Oct 3) Kaminski - providing he's not sold. Think there's a 70%+ chancw he'll be gone by 31 Jan 4) Bottom 3 5) Bournemouth
  10. Did you honestly expect anything different!? His value to Rovers is falling by the minute. It can't go on. IMO, he'll go for about £12m netting Rovers about £8m - if we are lucky! IMO, shambolic management of issue by Waggott and Mowbray.
  11. Think it was a groin issue. If rumours are true, looks like Brockhall sale will happen. Think it's criminal when you look at the money spunked up the wall on likes of Ayala - must be £4million+ in wages, NI, signing on fee, agents etc.
  12. Not ridiculous but savvy! Sadly, I think a bit of that type of nous would be welcome at Ewood! Instead, I think we've spunked away £millions on transfer fees for likes of Brereton and Gallagher and extended deals for likes of Mulgrew, Smallwood and Hart - you could go on and on and on.
  13. I think Tyrone is right. What we have now Gav is totally different to anything that I've encountered I would say in getting on for 60 years in supporting Rovers. I'd estimate that only 1 in 5 of my Rovers' connections (family, friends, colleagues, clients) are taking a season ticket this time. Never known apathy like this. I think it extends beyond Venky's - people I speak with have come to despise Waggott and Mowbray because, IMO, they are equally guilty of destroying our club and they are only in it for themselves. I think enormous damage has been done and sadly, it might not be rectified in my life time.
  14. Think you are totally wrong. He took us down when he was employed to keep us up and, IMO, we've had years of turgid football with only countless soundbites and bullsh1t emanating from his mouth to show for his tenure. We are in a total mess which, IMO, has everything to do with Mowbray's mismanagement of his squad and his ineffectiveness in player trading.
  15. Sadly, I think there are so many connected to Rovers who are hugely out of their depth. IMO, Mowbray, Venus, Lowe and Benson would never get another job at Championship level working with a first team. For me, it's the stuff of nightmares. Nevermind, at least @chaddyroversis happy - he thinks they are better than Sean Dyche!
  16. It is clearly an uncomfortable question because you are frightened of answering it!!!!!!!!!! I can only assume that you would turn your nose up at the prospect of Sean Dyche becoming Rovers' manager because he has managed Burnley. What a small minded attitude. I think the real world is that Rovers as a football club are screwed and whilst the 'happy clappers' can't see beyond Mowbray and Waggott then we will remain royally screwed. I couldn't give a monkey's what colour, creed or religion our manager is or whether our manager has Burnley connections, two heads or six fingers. The bottom line is can he feckin manage and get us back to the PL. IMO, Mowbray has wasted five years and we are a basket case of a club.
  17. FFS - do you not read properly or do you simply not answer uncomfortable questions for you!? I will ask you again, this time please answer either YES or NO IF Sean Dyche was prepared to come and manage Rovers, would you support the appointment YES or NO?
  18. Come on Chaddy, if you are going to respond to my posts then please at least do so in the right context. You posted as above "Would you want an ex dingle in charge here?" I responded "What Rovers' fan in their right mind WOULD NOT WANT Sean Dyche!?!?" I very doubt Dyche would touch us with a sh1tty stick but IF he could be lured here, are you seriously saying you would be against the appointment because he had managed Burnley? As for Alex Neil, don't rule that out. I am told there is even more credibility in that possibility!
  19. Think it will be miracle if Ayala fit. That midfield looks League One. Johnson already injured - you just couldn't write it. IMO, a season too far for Johnson - we never, ever learn. Think Armstrong will be long gone. Think we will be lucky to be out of the bottom six at any point in the season other than on opening day of the season before a ball is kicked!
