Thought it was a pretty standard 'Rovers under Mowbray' type game. Good in patches appalling in others. Losses of concentration and disinterest with glimpses of what players could be with a better coach - Brereton especially. As a team we mimic Mowbray and sadly he's too long in the tooth to change. We'll finish between 10th-14th I suspect, probably where we deserve to be given Rovers in 2020, shame on you Venkys.

OK, fair enough. But I'm telling you now it was sarcasm, he should go to West Brom, currently they are a far more appealing proposition, sadly.

"But also, be prepared to play on the wing or potentially in goal." ?

Perhaps Solihull?

Surely you picked up the tongue in cheek?

Should I use a special colour or something when being sarcastic?

West Bromwich Albion. How have we got to a position where we are less appealing than West Bromwich Albion? I've been to West Brom, there is nothing there. There is nothing in their town there is nothing in their trophy cabinet. They are a poxy yo yo team who will never go anywhere. We are Blackburn fucking Rovers for fuck sake, pride of Lancashire, rich history, ex Premier League Champions. Stop being ridiculous Cedric and come and play for the biggest and best club in Lancashire. But also, be prepared to play on the wing or potentially in goal.

Yes, posted this just as I saw the next one. However, I am sticking with my 'not believing everything Tony says' mantra ?

Sounds like Williams departure could be funding a new CB coming in. If the incoming is Kipre, and it's essentially cost neutral for what we get for Del, then that'll be Mowbray's finest work since signing Sir Bradley.

You should really charge for these lessons, can't be giving out that kind of stuff for free ?

Has to be a wind up.

Fair. Point still stands, no harm in giving the guy a bit of a gee up. At the same time it's healthy not to believe every single thing TM says.

Bit of salesmanship there from Big T. Absolutely no harm in giving the lad the feeling he's been our no.1 target for some time, even if it doesn't quite add up.

Given our lack of options in this area do you think Big T will enforce the '6 months to learn how we play/become one of the lads/be Eliot Bennett' rule or will he go straight in for the Bournemouth game?

Again, I wrote "convincing themselves" not "convinced". A key difference. And a perfectly reasonable statement to make when I read posts like "Kaminski, Kipre & XYZ would be a great window" meaning a spend of over £3m plus wages, in my opinion highly unlikely given the current situation.

You'll note that I wrote "people are convincing themselves" not "JoeH has convinced himself". Actually, perhaps you didn't ?

Some random bloke on twitter says something and people are convincing themselves we have £1.5m to spend on a single player ?

Keeping their powder dry possibly, not wanting to let everyone know we have money to spend. (I'm no fan of either)

Solid between the sticks and a demolisher of dicks. Makes sense in Venky land

I'm staggered that you think they give a fuck

"Club in caring about what the fans think shocker"

Err'ing on the side of optimism whilst supporting Blackburn Rovers, you deserve a medal sir!

I was winding you up!

I think that's racist ?

I can believe this one. Got all the necessary Venky requirements ticked - British, young, not good enough for a similar standard team in our league etc
