And today’s installment is Pears bigging up Ben Benson… Only SS left now but I have a sneaky suspicion that they are not finding him so eager to chat…

It would be interesting to know how many players GB has been told “no” by the board/sw/lunatics/fat barry/madam and the shadow and just what his instructions are since the events in summer… Only then can we judge him fairly Do wonder if Eustace wishes Ennis was still around (at least for this season)

Goes up in my estimation - not least because it sounds like he was the only one with a bit of shame in his body but also willing to admit it wasn’t all JDT (“we were shit against huddersfield!”)

Only the last couple of seasons and seem to think he missed a few due to family reasons (baby?) Source for stats is wiki so maybe not 100%

I’m assuming (and hoping) the the Birmingham reference was more to do with the players traveling for the game at Birmingham and then needing to rest because of our coach (😉 ) Can also imagine that there have a few fair meetings for JE with staff and players to listen and get them onboard with the new “direction” If traveling from Birmingham to Blackburn is too much of a commute given the importance of our situation then JE is in the wrong job. Ffs - just avoid the worst traffic and it is 2hrs max. Not like training sessions are 14 hours long so time isn’t the issue…

I take it back - keep fluffing John 🤣

Not a good start - the fugly kit in play again 😡

Is Leonard actually injured or still “ill”? Is he 1 appearance away from triggering a significant pay rise by any chance? (Tin foil hat firmly on 🫣)

I’m thinking more “get out there chaps - just do your best and don’t worry about the meanies in the crowd. You are all special” Nope - not Eustace but the rallying cry from “big” Dom, our captain and leader. Mcfadz wondering if he has been transplanted into an alternate reality and SS texting his agent in the corner…

I’m guessing that he has however been told to fall in line and be a good boy and not get anymore ideas about actually being a real DOF?

Some of the shit that is being published and put out is frankly frightening given our situation. Is Eustace a football coach or a fluffer?

See that Hyam is becoming a regular feature in the website - guess the leader of the senior players council and SW reached an understanding that the new head coach would have a lower profile… Also note Hyam repeating the “we are all in this together” bs - could be a very expensive drinking game over the next 2 months… 🤣

Is this a 1984 correction of historical reports in order for GB to keep his job in exchange for Swag retaking the throne? It gets worse for every day…

Reported in the podcast? Can’t listen to it but who is saying that JE is Waggots man? (I suspected but is it now known?)

Sammi was forced to come deeper and deeper. Ironically i think Gallagher coming back and Moran being dropped has strangled the supply line (of course losing A Wharton hasn’t helped either) But a response on Saturday is needed

Crap - devoid of a plan a let alone plan b School level defending (chase the ball) and only SS trying to get the team to stop dropping deeper before he himself was forced to come deep to get the ball Total lack of cohesion and sloppy play all round - Eustace has to tear them a new one after that or else our players council will talk about togetherness in league 1 (unless their wages are reduced) I can SS and Dolan leaving in the summer and then we are fcked Felt sorry for Telavovic - could have been the start of a rovers career having done the hard bit of getting in the right places but that miss and the lack of support from his teammates (even Ruddy gave him a “you ok”) is probably the end

Are they sure he didn’t say “we’ve got a few tools in the squad”? 🤔😉

They shoot horses don’t they? 🤔😉

Fuck - how did he not score that!

Good half time talk - “guys, remember the guy you wanted gone? Do what wanted but badly so that we play route 1 for the next few” 🤣

Spilled my tea at that - class 👏

Fugly kit and Mowbray without a home win - we know what’s coming 🫣

You missed a step - the players will be sold with his agreement based on an an understanding that he can reinvest the money to improve the squad… When the “hand grenade” is chucked in with 5 days of the window left then maybe he will run… (unless, like JDT, they demand payment to release him from his contract

Possibly…. In other words ”no” 🤣

At a club that closed the ticket office on a match day and tried to force fans to print their tickets and mascots to buy their own shirts…? Sounds about right
