  1. Why is a 6 footer clearly not going to win many headers ? For Wharton's sake I hope he doesn't have the sort of defeatist attitude shown in your post. To reach the very top in any walk of life requires a determination to be the best possible, not just giving up when things seem hard. To quote the old prayer " Do not ask for tasks equal to your powers, ask for powers equal to your task". A shining example of the right mentality would be Andy Murray where early in his career it looked as if stamina might be an issue; he worked his socks off to be one of the iron men of tennis. There is no reason why Wharton can't do something similar.
  2. Makelele is 5ft 9inches tall so was not going to be defending balls in to the air at corners. In contrast Wharton is 6ft tall so it is not unreasonable to expect him to defend .
  3. Baffling to me that for some strange reason you seem to take exception to a statement of fact.
  4. That appears to be an Indonesian poster, nothing to do with India
  5. In fact the local MP did refer to the club during the HOC debates on the Football Governance Bill. On 28 April he asked the junior minister to "join me in congratulating Blackburn Rovers on their outstanding community work, especially to support young boys and girls from all backgrounds in football ? Their commitment to inclusivity and development at grassroots level is truly commendable."
  6. Come off it. The blueprint for our path was created in 2010. You seem to be the only person who has failed to see that.
  7. You don’t get it.Employees here who show dissent lose their job. Ferguson has stayed silent over the United owners putting huge debts on the club.
  8. You are deluded if you really think the manager would have the power to veto or block a sale that senior executives were determined to make
  9. But would Cantwell work in the new system?
  10. Kindly do not invent posts made by myself or anybody else for that matter
  11. Results without Cantwell are actually better than when he plays.12 points from 8 games without him; 7 points from 7 games with him.
  12. 3 points closer to the play offs than the relegation zone
  13. Great assist by er Rashford
  14. With the new TV deals in recent years I think the reduction in revenues would be a lot more now.
  15. As I said some weeks ago the Remembrance Day game was an inappropriate stage for protests - pleased to see that others listened.
  16. Nonsense. The player who had been on the far post went AWOL. Pears perfectly entitled to be angry
  17. I dont think the managers get that much time. I think Edward’s is their eighth manager in the last ten years.
  18. Didn’t Eustace choose to start Pears ahead of Toth?
  19. Would Alf Ramsey have selected Hurst if Greaves injury had not forced his hand ?
