  1. I console myself, with knowing that the people I have got to know, through attending matches and also their love for the club, are still in my view, what the club, is all about and not the people running it, who are in it for nothing other than selfish reasons. Let's face it, one of the major decision makers, has refused to play for the club and now stand accused of being a bully around the place and the other has links to the agents, who seem to have made off with millions. They will be gone one day and the sooner the better.
  2. Good article, but I suspect it will be a relegation place that the 3 points could cost us, not a top 6 or promotion spot.
  3. It remains to be seen who we appoint for that. I am not too sure if many are aware, as I have not seen it mentioned anywhere, but here is the new player care officer. Not too sure what was wrong with the last one mind, but perhaps others may know.

Player care at first-team level is different, but the focus remains the same: building genuine relationships so players and staff know you’re there to support and progress with them. 🇪🇸🇳🇱 Pre-season gave me the perfect chance to do that, with the Spain tour and trip to NEC Nijmegen. Both experiences helped me get to know players as people, their families, backgrounds and preferences - and made the transition smoother. 📝 A big part of my role has been leading on summer signings, from arrivals to inductions. Being a trusted contact, especially for those moving abroad, has been something I’ve really enjoyed. Helping players feel settled off the pitch is key to them performing on it. 📈 It’s also been great to welcome the FA, PGMOL and PFA into the training ground, with exciting conversations around personal development that I'm sure will grow across the season. 😁 Highlight so far? Our first league win away at Hull City - proof of the hard work across the environment paying off. 🙏 Huge thanks to everyone at Blackburn, external organisations and my friends/family who’ve helped me settle so quickly. I’m motivated by how aligned we are in building a culture of excellence, care and professionalism - excited for what’s ahead! ⚽️
  4. At least it was an exciting summer though.
  5. Let's just say, his face fits and that's the criteria right now sadly. I understand that we have a new player liaison office too, whose face, also probably fits, as there was nothing wrong with our previous one.
  6. It is a definite job for the boys. Those thick fans will never notice and if anyone kicks off, we will threaten them will legal action, or ban them.
  7. Given that the people who seem to have appointed him, are on record as saying we have a stronger squad this season that last, perhaps they can explain why we are so much worse this year then. Sack them all NOW.
  8. I was at the player of the years awards in April 2024 and it came over loud and clear from Waggott, how much they were praising and focussing on the achievements of the ladies team. They had Elton Ashworth from Watson Ramsbottom, presenting the awards to them, player of the year, young player of the year etc. Also, at that time Watson Ramsbottom, were the front of shirt sponsors for the ladies and as we now know, that led to the current deal, which is in it's second season. Given all this and how it seemed so important at the time, to have a reasonable amount of success, for the ladies how has it ended like this?
  9. No doubt, he would try.
  10. I firmly believe these next two fixtures, shape our season. Lose them both and we are deep in the mire. Hopefully we will pick up 4 points, which is the absolute minimum, to prevent us going into the next international break on a real downer. In my opinion, the manager is not up to scratch and has been chosen due to his willingness to accept the mediocrity, being forced upon him and it was this factor, not his ability that now only got him the job, but also the bizarre 3 year contract.
  11. The people who decided to self relegate, now need to be asked why. The problem is, who will ask, as they run the risk of a ban.
  12. At least there was some point in today’s game.
  13. The ladies are currently 6-0 down jusT before half time.
  14. The two at the Helmn now Gestede and Pasha are as bad as I’ve ever known and are not fit to be associated with the club. I am also of the opinion that Ismael was brought in to ensure that they had someone who would not rock the boat, when it was plain for all to see that they are at best incompetent, but perhaps it’s deeper than that. As we have seen over the last few days, they don’t like the local paper saying their bit about the shenanigans, so ensured this time, no JDT or Eustace type was appointed, just someone who is either complicit, or happy to turn a blind eye.
  15. I can also call confirm that the post that led to Glen receiving legal threats, was one he made on here.
  16. The sooner he is run out of the club the better.
  17. The I know best, thats emanating from other areas of the club. They are teaching the coach their traits.
  18. I watched the Wrexham V Derby game yesterday and both were very poor too. I think Wrexham have spent in the region of £35m too but you couldn’t tell.
  19. The club can’t stop the paper from writing about a game they played in. It’s a free country and he will be allowed to write a report on Tuesdays match if he wants to. No one can stop him.
  20. The interviewer needs to be careful, or he will get banned. Only nice things allowed in the press.
  21. So he has now conceded that he has an idea which former employees have told you about what he said and what he issued legal threats to you about. So now, does he apologise to you, or issue legal threats to the former employees? My suggestion is he will do neither, as he knows only too well that it happened and does not have the decency to apologise either.
  22. Gestede was always going to try to play the race/religion card and has no grounds to do so. He knows only too well that what you have stated is accurate and was probably hoping, the people who you spoke to, were going to clam up. Funny how he has now changed his tune. Bullies hate being challenged and are usually cowards.
