Only if I get a free ticket, and happy to shout Venkys Out between each player announcement at the start 😅

I heard the David Lowe thing from one of Dunny’s previous assistants at another club when he came to us as a driver during Covid. Can’t remember the exactly under which manager it happened, but I was told that Lowe was removed by someone in charge as part of the backroom staff (possibly when Lambert or Coyle was manager?) and rehired directly by Balaji Rao. Then he randomly got promoted to Asst Manager when Mowbray came in, and signed a new deal with the club in June 2017. It never occurred to me until this has started coming out through other channels, but could it be that Lowe is (in Venky minds) superior to Pasha?

Anyone who feels harassed (that is, a course of conduct -two or more incidents) by club employees should immediately contact the police.

Where was it ‘kept a secret’?

I’m doing a hybrid version of it. Restrict myself to eating only after 12pm during the week, and only 1800cals/day with minimum 150g protein each day. Wknds eat what I like as long as I don’t go over my maintenance calories (currently 2300). Lost 4kg since New Year.

Waggott takes ages to appoint managers, as seen now and pre-JDT. GB had succession planning in place, as seen by his contract renewals, and the speed of two managerial appointments while he was here.

Being a little facetious here, but Gerrard could be the perfect candidate to rid us of Venkys. A media darling like that choosing to walk out of the job after only another 12 months would really set alarm bells ringing and set Sky’s journalistic dogs howling at the ownership. I’d almost appoint him for that reason alone. I also feel he wouldn’t actually need to ‘manage’ this side. He just needs to ‘Captain’ it with encouragement and siege mentality. Being an idol of Travis’ would go a long way to getting complete buy-in from the rest of the squad too. Sidenote: Trav is now of an age (and improvement in ability) where I hope he becomes a rare one-club player. He loves the club, and is proving himself a fucking superb captain. I think we will all look kindly on his place in our history, even if it has been under the ownership of these cunts.

Sounds like King Kenny dusted off his magic hat today!

Nah, he’d somehow relegate both managing one of them.

I wish that was my excuse 😅

If there’s one thing Jong-Un can do, it’s get people to do as they’re told…

His behaviour has been on the cards since he was refused the McGuire money last summer, and he was refused a resignation. In that time, this apparently snide individual has seen us perform at a level above the sum of our parts, with many players offering their thanks for his positive impact on their careers. When was the last time you praised someone who left you in the lurch? Or is our squad uniquely thick as mince? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not happy at how he’s left, but he has done so completely within the bounds of his contract, while continuing to perform well for us. If Suhail and Waggott had upheld promises to him, AND he behaved this way, I’d be piling it on him.

None, the loans take it up to 14.

My fat fingers 😅

A good day to protest. Seems they’re trying to quell it by bringing King Kenny onto the pitch

Nor me. You only have to look at Ewood to know the state of Brockhall.

Players who arrive aren’t going to slag off the training facilities are they?

… Gary?

I agree to an extent, but also remember the most common name people wanted to replace Allardyce was Martin fucking Jol 😅

Available managers I would be ok with: Allardyce, Dyche, Gerrard, O’Neil, Harris. Left field: Might someone like Brian Priske be interested?

Wife came home from a day of teaching. A child has introduced the class to ‘I believe in Joe Hendry’. She is annoyed. That child is a legend.

Lots of players congratulating Eustace on Instagram and thankful for his help. That’s not normal when a manager asks to leave. They clearly understand as we do: Waggott and Suhail are idiots.

Can someone paste this?

If you know, you know. If you don’t know, don’t worry about it 😅
