Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach
Crimpshrine replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Wasn't Big Sam's first match against Stoke ? a 3 - 0 win if I remember correctly. Pre Venky's of course ! I can see Ennis coming back to haunt us tomorrow. -

Maybe Venky's refusing/unable to pay what he is due under his contract ? -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - Sweden coach
Crimpshrine replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
How can you possibly know that? Has JDT resigned or been sacked ? Has he been offered the Sweden job? Any illegal approaches involved ? All those questions would need to be answered before we can know if your statement is true. -

Come on, they had a really tough meeting with the fans on Wednesday. They needed some recovery time -

Or it could simply be down to cost. Venky's can't currently supply any money and the Wharton cash ( probably only a percentage paid up front from CP ) has been earmarked for HMRC / wages. They will not have budgeted for a big payoff for JDT. So maybe Venky's won't sanction a sacking and JDT won't walk. -

Interesting that Eustace is still 2nd favourite for the Huddersfield Job ( Sky Bet ). Despite there not being any odds on the next Rovers boss as the position is not vacant, JDT is 14/1 to be the next Huddersfield boss -

Ennis would have had a fair proportion of his 4 year contract paid up. I bet we didn't make any profit at all -

One person makes a mistake. I don't buy it. Where is the procedure put in place by Broughton, peer checking, printing off verification for filing. All sorts of methods to ensure mistakes like that don't happen when the stakes are high. -

This managerial change is perfect timing for Waggott. Unpopular sale of Adam Wharton, more transfer cockups, terrible form on the pitch, protests looming, toxic atmosphere, Venky's court hearing postponed. Anti Venky feeling growing. Massive pressure on the CEO. Change the manager and many fans will be in 'give him a chance ffs' mode. Pressure off for now. Retire in the summer. Crafty bugger that Waggott. -

Absolutely spot on. Please don't protest or boo at matches as the players get upset. He is really clutching at straws. -

Procedures were put in place. GB promised it would not happen again -

Crimpshrine replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
But Broughton stated that all procedures had been revisited after last year's cockup and promised it would never happen again. It's simple - click send, check that it has sent, print off verification get a manager/peer to check the verification. Not click any button and go for a cup of tea. -

I bet Cheston probably volunteered to be the sacrificial sacking. Not far from retirement, probably got a massive payout and will be nowhere near the club when it goes into admin. Very convenient. -

People will still be saying this in another 13 years time. Venky's don't care about the club and never will. They need to go now. -

It feels to me like Wharton really didn't fancy the Palace move but Rovers have been pushing him as hard as they can and, possibly, using 'emotional blackmail' regarding the club's finances. Despite the personal financial rewards, I don't think it's a good move for Adam and the only people to benefit are Venky's. -

So depressing. We have billionaire owners but we are seen as a soft touch by the likes of Luton, Brentford and Crystal Palace. -

Crimpshrine replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I can imagine the club are putting a lot of pressure on Adam Wharton to accept a move to Crystal Palace even though it's probably not his preferred option. "We need the money, The owners can't provide any at the moment - you will be saving the club" I would just love it if he refused to go. He will get better offers in the future. -

I'm sure it will all be spent. HMRC Player wages Waggott wages Suhail Wages Rent payments on what used to be our own training ground. Other creditors -
v Wrexham (h) - FA Cup - 29/1/24, 7:30pm
Crimpshrine replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Absolutely not. -
The intersting thing about Brockhall is that the price they paid was based on it's vlaue with planning permission granted. As far as I know, there is no planning permission for building on the training ground. I wonder if this has been looked at suspiciously in India like the purchase of the Neville mansion ? Another reason to question their intentions and stop them sending money over? According to the court documents from last time, the investigations into Venky's overseas activities are at a 'nascent stage'. Who knows what they have unearthed in the last few months
