Can't think of many better signings in the Premier League era. Top class guy.

After listening to the likes of Paul Merson slag off Rovers fans over their over the top reaction of Steve Kean and the goings on at Blackburn, I take anything from pundits and journos with a pinch of salt. Judging on a few of the comments i've read from fans of the team he's leaving, we've got a player who is hardworking, wants to improve, and a decent person. Seems like qualities I want in a player at Rovers. Let's hope our coaching staff can work their magic and turn him into a gem of a player. Fingers crossed!

Dodgy goal to concede too. Not his fault though, the player seemed to use his hand to control the ball and the goal counted 🤷🏻‍♂️

I'm fuming there was no chicken.

Just out of curiosity. Does anyone know how many actual shots have we've had on goal since V.I appointment?

Carsley's played on a wet and windy night in Stoke many times and has captained Rovers too. He gets it. Tough guy, a thinker too. We've had a lot worse! 😁 He's handled the top young players of our nation and we have a good young team that's respectful and need a challenge and opportunity. Personally, I see this as a fresh start for the team (not the board/owners). We're currently in 6th. The team has no expectation to stay in the play offs after what's happened so if we can have a bit of hope and get behind someone who has something to prove then I can't think of a better time than now. Saying all that, we'll probably end up with Paul Ince 🤣

If that happens then surely some genius can create a 'BlackburnEnders' theme tune 😆

It's surprising that some people aren't keen on Lee Carsley. He holds a lot of respect in the football community, has strong connections in England, and has experience in developing young English players. His attacking style of football is exciting, and he brings fresh, new ideas to the table. Personally, I'd prefer to take a risk on someone like him, much like we did with JDT, rather than hiring another manager who is likely to regurgitate the same instructions/tactics/methods they've used at all their clubs that more than likely ended up with them being sacked for underperforming because everyone's figured them out.

Great listen again chaps. At least Rovers provides you with great content every episode...

Yes but anything can happen before a contract has been signed on the dotted line. Nothing should surprise us anymore.

ummm what happens next if terms cannot be agreed and he doesn't join Derby?

Does "significant investment being made during the transfer window" mean they've paid for a training course to teach someone to press 'send'?

It's only been 37 days in 2025 and it's proven to be one hell of a year so far....

Just give the job to Kyle McFadzean until the end of the season.

Are the board and owners Burnley fans in disguise? If so, they win. Now give our club back.
