  1. I torture her buy dressing Baby E in his rovers stuff when she's away even for just a few minutes. Is that not enough?
  2. Paul Wight announced a 'hall of fame worthy' debutante at AEW Revolution... Cody allegedly ruled out 'bait and switching' in AEW, so it better be good! My suspicion is it's just Paul Wight himself.
  3. My question: TM has said several times recently that we fans expect 'instant results'. Our expectations of a playoff push were set by the manager himself. That means Tony is either a liar or incompetent. Which is it, Mr. Waggott, and why are neither sackable offenses? (Deliberately provocative)
  4. My understanding at the time was that they didn't agree with the aims of the club hierarchy. My assumption (and that's all it was and still is) was that the club wanted promotion immediately but the Cowleys didn't feel they could deliver that, so walked rather than commit to something they felt was unachievable.
  5. The case of Williams certainly has a whiff of the 'Nelsen's about it.
  6. Not convinced QPR, Forest, or Derby will be worried.
  7. I'm always quick, just ask Mrs. E!
  8. Bowyer, Lambert, Coyle, Mowbray
  9. Because, unless I'm mistaken, TM isn't a member of this messageboard.
  10. In fairness, I've never seen a thread descend into disarray when discussing the name of bread roll (get it right, ffs 😉 ) but I've seen plenty of threads derailed by political bullshit such as which political commentator is or is not a prick etc.
  11. Let's not talk about the merits or otherwise of a US talking head on a match thread, eh lads?
  12. We need to change manager quickly. Has any manager relegated us twice before?
  13. He didn't look at the fixture list before saying that, did he?
  14. I remember that campaign, it was really effective.
  15. Trying to be positive and work out how to get the best out of what we have, I'd go 4231. Kaminski Nyambe Lenihan LoanKid? Bell Travis Rothwell Elliott Dack Armstrong Gallagher I'm thinking high line, with Bell and Nyambe only using their immense pace to catch failed offside traps, or break forward on counters. Otherwise, they should both just sit in a flat back 4. Travis to play the Savage role, give it to Rothwell to burst forward like the Dunn of the Souness era. Gallagher to be the targetman, just there to hover up top nodding balls down for a free-roaming trio, or to get on the end of any crosses. Is that a plan?
  16. And we didn't play all that well then, we took advantage of a red card and a team well off the boil.
  17. What have we been reduced to? Why the hell have we spent the last 10mins or so clinging to a draw against 10-man Coventry? We're Blackburn fucking Rovers, ffs, not that Mowbray would have us believe that!
  18. I seem to remember Coventry battering us in an FA Cup game under Hughes, have I made that up?
  19. I can see Hughes, on an admittedly fairly low level, wanting to prove he can do it. Where better than to revisit the place where almost everything went right apart from Bruno Berner? Plus he can point to minimal spend on a squad, provided he'd be willing to work with those restrictions. Time out of the game might refresh his mind in such a way. Whether it's about the job or not, I simply don't know. My suspicion is DoF type role with a relative novice manager. Purely my speculation.
  20. “I don’t want to be a burden on the club, if I’m the problem then that's no problem, the owners have to tell me. “Other than that, I love the game, I've been here before, I'll keep going." Last time you were 'here', you walked from Coventry! Repeat performance please.
  21. By the same logic, nor did Mark Hughes in 04/05.
  22. Thanks o2g, I wasn't quite sure of the arrangements. Only ever attended pre-meets twice as a guest of Tris
  23. That's a week of traction you've just guaranteed this site, whether true or not 😅
  24. Possibly thinking of @only2garners (if I've got the right guy) who posts the minutes sometimes?
