As a Celtic fan, the club needs a complete overhaul. Rodgers is done, needs gone and has done for 12 months. There needs to be a clear transfer plan and injection of cash. The current squad is a great example of buy cheap buy twice!

McInnes is also a decent manager

Valérien Ismaël: Blackburn Rovers Head Coach
Lancaster Rover replied to DE.'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I said it after a couple of games that this season stinks of Owen Coyle season and I think I was wrong, this will get worse. Lots of positives, played well, etc. bollocks. Good teams win more matches than they lose, we lose considerably more than we win so draw your own conclusions -

This is why we’ll get relegated, 45 mins of good work undone in 3 minutes. Though you could argue it was done during a few weeks in summer -
Jon Dahl Tomasson - no longer Sweden coach
Lancaster Rover replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
If you look at the juxtaposition between Spain 2010 and Barcelona 2010/11, which culminated in that exhibition against United in the CL final I'd say it's fairly safe to say Pep wasn't the problem. -

Lancaster Rover replied to Tom's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Makes me laugh the blame Pep gets for the ill's for modern football. Barcelona scored over 75% of their goals through counter attacks, Bayern were one of the most counter attacking teams in recent years, City at the peak went forward so quickly it was breathtaking. What's happened has been a corruption of his/Cruyffs' style and turned into this possession at all costs nonsense, Cruyff always said look for the furthest pass first and work your way back. The opposite is now true with your Martins, etc where they do not look beyond the next line. Re Spain 2010, Del Bosque had always been a very conservative manager, in fact that Spain 2010 team had loads of internal problems about the negativity of their play, big fall outs within the team, etc. That team wasn't a a representation of Spanish football at the time, it was a manager trying to force his way on a team of players largely used to playing something totally different. -
He went to St. Michael's RC so defo of the wrong persuasion for that mob.

based on the fact McKenna went to a catholic high school I'm not sure it's a move worth making for him.

Totally agree but I bet there would have been a fair number (like me) who travel in sacked it off rather than sit soaked for a few hours and the drive home -

We’re so flat and so predictable, watching our build up play is like a primary school paint by numbers exercise. -

I’ve taken the brave decision to stay at home in Lancaster, with the fire on and watch it on telly. Can’t be arsed getting soaking wet for another calamitous call off. -

Half of Millars throws were big looping ones midweek, that takes a lot of the threat away IMO. If it’s arrowed in like a driven corner they’re murder to deal with, otherwise the effort to get him over there isn’t worth the outcome -

Even by the usual standards of being contrary this is surely talking the piss. A loan signing whose only contribution so far is using our medical facilities and looks he will be doing into November at the earliest. We’ve got a self imposed 10k wage cap but are happy to pay the wages of another teams player while he undergoes treatment with seemingly no timescale on when he will actually play for us. As batshit mental signings go, and there has been a few under Venky’s this one is right up there. -
Valérien Ismaël: Blackburn Rovers Head Coach
Lancaster Rover replied to DE.'s topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
I remember the first game at home against Norwich, passive press, possession without any real intent too much space between players, too much space through the middle when opposition attack. I sat through that first half where we made Duffy look like Beckenbaur and to be honest not a lot has changed since. VI is crap, his record is crap. -

@chaddyrovers the reaction isn't after 2 defeats, it's after 5 defeats in 7 games in the league, with a terrifying amount at home. Including last season it's 10 losses, 6 wins and 3 draws. -
Good player and the pick of (a very poor) the summer, that said he isn't an upgrade on Brittain.
