v Preston North End (h) - 10/11/23

There's not one thing from the entirety of JDT's reign so far to suggest that's even a remote possibility. -
v Preston North End (h) - 10/11/23

They've won once since mid September - I'll pass thanks. Up the Rovers. -
They've spent about £100m to end up with a team that would lose to the team they had last season. I'd probably be hiding if we did that.

Great video, some good times! Less so at the end, our last Premier League goal for God knows how long 😔 -
Rovers' last 7 managers ranked
frosty replied to yeti-dog's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Coyle would have to be bottom of any Rovers manager list since he who shall not be named. A disgrace that he was ever appointed. The reigns of Berg and Appleton were so short that I wouldn't include them, albeit almost certainly neither were going to work out. The club was still at its absolute lowest ebb then though. After a spell of playing extremely dire football matched only by Appleton's last few games and not getting results either, I thought Lambert moulded a pretty poor squad into a decent enough, competitive Championship side. Once he decided to leave it went to pot again. I suppose looking at his record after leaving us, chances are we wouldn't have got any better. 4th is correct for him. Not really a fan of either and both stayed on for too long, but you could definitely make a case for Bowyer above Mowbray. Didn't have the initial relegation, finished 8th and 9th in his full seasons (this was still underachieving though of course given the squad we had). Mowbray didn't match either of those until his last season. Even when Bowyer was rightly sacked, we were only in a very similar position to where Mowbray finished in 20/21 (so after 4 years in charge) and this was with a 30 goal striker, the pick of the PL loans in Harvey Elliott, and not being forced to sell anyone - complete contrast to Bowyer being forced to sell Cairney and Gestede etc in his final summer. But yeah, those two in a battle for 2nd sums the last 11 years up. -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - Officially No Longer Our Head Coach

If he's a Feyenoord man and would like to manage them one day I don't think he'd dare go to Ajax. Albeit it'd be odd to see somebody turn down Ajax to stay at Rovers. -

Thought he must have just had a beer last night but he's still at it this morning. Very bizarre to do it all over Twitter, especially the things he's said about Coleman. -

Cheers. Not surprised I forgot about him. -

Think it is 3 yep. We used to have him, Mulgrew and there must have been one other that got called up....racking my brains as to who (without checking). Think it was too early for Nyambe with Namibia... -
BRFCS TV - Nostalgia Thread

Great header. Fun fact - he's one of very few players whose debut for a club has come in a major cup final (so excluding things like the Community Shield). -
v Coventry City (a) - 4/10/2023
frosty replied to Herbie6590's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Lucky it's the beginning of Jon's second season after a very good first one, rather than about 4 years into Tony's journey to nowhere. -
I think the o in his name is a 0 (can't believe we're talking about the CEO of Rovers here....)

v Cardiff City (h) - 27/9/23 Carabao Cup

2-1 Rovers 31,367 Waggott out -
He won't be happy - it's clear he thinks Waggott is a proper plonker. And he's right.

Has he even been mentioned much apart from a couple of comments? You're the one that keeps bringing him up I think! -
v Sunderland (h) - 20/9/23 - 19:45
frosty replied to Aqualung's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Announcing it when it's never normally announced made it seem like 16,000 is some kind of achievement for us, which it obviously isn't - just all feels rather small-time. Also gets the opposition fans going. Just stick it up on the scoreboard, job done. -
v Sunderland (h) - 20/9/23 - 19:45
frosty replied to Aqualung's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
2-1 Rovers again. Oh, and please don't announce the attendance over the PA system like on Saturday. -
Is the Blackburn End really not open for the Cardiff game - what's all that about? Closing the Riverside is one thing, but the Blackburn End? Especially when it's been open for home games in earlier rounds both this season and in recent years. Well, it's just always been open. They also seem to struggle to publish anything without any errors in these days (some effort considering this is just a few lines), the next round is the third round and Cardiff's win v Birmingham was in round two. https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2023/september/06/ticket-news--rovers-v-cardiff-city/

Better teams maybe, can't imagine any bigger clubs than Rangers though (I'm a big JDT fan - but Rangers are a massive club). -

I love JDT, but right now he can't go down as a better manager for Rovers than Hughes. -

Hoping for Sutton United at home or something just as winnable. -
Strange place with even stranger people.
