I guess losing Mulgrew, Samuel and loaning out Brereton might make a small dent, but we must be nearing the FFP threshold. The end of January will be much like last year, I feel. Ambition 0 Cowdenbeath 3

Very poor budget management, indeed. Look at all the money pissed away and we have managed the play-off positions for one hour or something in the last 8 years. FFP about to rear its head again, so rinse and repeat of 2016 coming around the corner. Ambitious owners?-Rubbish

Well, I do and the only word for it is.."Shit"!

Hubris then punishment! My kids still laugh at me for over- celebrating Friedel's equaliser at Chartlton . I'm not sure how to say this, but this bloke grabbed me and we danced all the way down the aisle with a few others. It was only after we gathered ourselves together that I realised he had some form of learning difficulty and that he had a carer, who seemed a bit..well worried!

I was there. Freezing cold. Remember what happened a couple of minutes later. Plus ca change ...

But TM has been paying Harrods' prices in B&M Bargains!

Agreed. No kidding, but I did wonder if O'Neill would come in for him before our Stoke game and I was dead certain that Evans would put a shift in at the Britannia-to that end! Out, I say lol

"Always the victim. It's never your fault!"

Perhaps, they really want to try and get promotion. What a novel idea!

Just a company man?

Hahaha

He would have been only too aware of his non -contribution. Being booed by your own fans, now what positive contribution could that ever make to the individual player or the club?

I get the frustration..God knows I am heartily sick of this Rovers shit-show BUT our own fans booing an individual Rovers player can do no good whatsoever.

You are not helping lol..

It must have been a pearler! Agree with the rest of your post.

I once worked in a psychiatric adolescent unit and I remember that the head psych would often tell the kids that it was "a strength" to cry. In all seriousness, this is just supporters, who are rightly p**d off after yet another shit-show, venting their anger. No-one can seriously condemn a man for crying...can they?!

Who is his agent? lol

For me, it's like Bush and Blair with the Iraq war. They need a proper plan and to have thought through (at least a few of)the next steps etc.

Needlessly. indeed. If the owners wanted to deliberately relegate the club in 2012, they could hardly have acted differently. Same again in 2016...

Yes, I think that bird has flown. Bournemouth, QPR, Derby, Villa, Sheff Wed etc.

Hmmm...I am sure he is in a bit of a crisis.No shame in tears, as far as I am concerned. He is certainly visibly lacking in confidence. At the moment, he looks shit, I know, but booing aint going to help one bit.

And what was his reply?.."Snap!"

Oh, I agree with your last sentence. If we were a normal club and used some of the fee to get a "no-nonsense" replacement to play alongside Tosin, it might be ok for this season. I guess I haven't got that deep belief in Lenihan.

This may be the day that the Ewood crowd finally turns!

Not on a wind- up, but is Lenihan really that good and how reliable is his fitness?
