Lump on the relegation odds soon, because it’s now becoming known outside of Blackburn just how much of a mess we’re in:

Szmodics may keep the lights on slightly longer, but certainly beyond next summer at the very latest (Easter perhaps) they/we are goosed.

Exactly this. Personally speaking I wouldn't care about what he's got to say, because at the end of the day he won't have a clue about the bigger picture or direction of the 'owners'.

A damning indictment of our recruitment team too. Rovers just absolutely stink from top to bottom - a shell of this once proud club.

They’d be able to though with a Szmodics sale and more Wharton cash in January. Technically it could go on til next summer you would assume. Then we have nobody to sell.

Jesus Christ, what a game this is.

‘Why would we want Yamal when we have Igor Tyjon’ Steve Waggott, August 2024

SIXTEEN years old.

At least the Indian courts involvement should ensure this can’t go on for much longer than a year or so (unless they back down), because beyond Szmodics the squad is barely worth more than a couple of million between the lot of them. The funding through transfers will run dry once the last Wharton instalment is in.

11/2 to drop does seem like a ‘license to print money’ as Mercer would say. We’re about to find out just how good a manager Eustace is, that is for sure.

I would bet very decent money that this is exactly what will happen. Then I’ve read we’re due another Wharton instalment in January. Death by a thousand cuts.

Akanji would be our best defender for a start.

Absolutely zero chance we spend any kind of money like that IMO. Unless something drastic changes it will be freebies and loans at best.

You would imagine Eustace's agent will be putting out feelers for something else...few with integrity will want to be associated with this car crash which is coming next season.

As I said the other day, the only hope is if the Indian courts don't budge then the end game has to be coming because Szmodics aside, you'd struggle to get a couple of million for the lot. Keeping everything crossed that this season is the last of their disastrous reign. We'll be left in an absolute state - likely League One at best, but IMO bring it on if it means they are gone.

Their ‘end game’ at Rovers cannot come soon enough. I thought we’d be stuck with them forever but unless something changes big time with the Indian government then that isn’t looking likely, thank f*ck.

Mr Balon D’or is Jude (apparently). Jesus Christ they need to bin that award off now Messi is in the states.

Hyam and co give it a run for their money!

No subs. Southgate clearly a fan of Tony Mowbray’s passion for remaining unbelievably stubborn until it’s too late.

I’d wager that Southgate's first change will be Gallagher for Mainoo. Criminal how poorly we’re playing under this guy.

Although any further delays with regards to funding would seriously jeapordise our Chanpionship status given how poor our squad is, 99.99% of us would take the above scenario if it meant they finally cleared off. I’ll get the bubbly on ice.

I saw some photos of his missus...if that were me I'd be disappearing for some time!

In true Southgate style I bet it'll be Trent on for Gallagher in the second half at some point with Kobbie and Adam left twiddling their thumbs on the bench.

Indeed. Same with Mainoo, same with Palmer, same with Gordon. He's a stubborn sod is Gareth. He simply has to bring in Wharton or Mainoo against Slovenia. But I bet he'll go with Gallagher.
