The England Team - all the news, views…
TheRevAshton replied to roverandout's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
In a few years time, this will infamously be looked back on as the Euro's where that muppet Southgate benched Wharton for the whole tournament. -

Totally Wicked will not be the front of the shirt sponsors this season. -

Saw similar reports, if that's true then I give up! We'll not even make the quarter finals under Southgate, he's a useless, negative coach with no bollocks. Trent should never play in CM again, and Foden should be rightfully dropped after a diabolical performance. -
John Ruddy at nearly 38 is not a progressive signing at all. He’s as bad as Pears as it is, and continues to decline, the man is rapidly closing in on retirement. In the last year we’ve brought in an absolute shit-tonne from player sales, and more is on the way… we could even end up flogging Leo for around what we paid for him. The squad desperately needs proper investment, not temporary half-assed signings who are below par, like Ruddy.

Recent Income Phillips - £2m Kaminski - £2.5m Ennis - £0.5m A. Wharton - £18m £23m from selling assets since last summer right there... Likely income this summer Raya (sell-on) - £4m Szmodics - £12m Wahlstedt - £1m £17m there too... so that'd be £40m combined. At a normal Club, you could guarantee at least £20m of that would be reinvested into the squad, especially with a squad in the state of ours... But here? No chance... we'll be lucky if they reinvest £5m.

Incredibly underwhelming, we'll struggle to get to the quarters playing like that! The squad has bags of talent, but a god awful coach - how on earth did he ever get the job? This team would be different gravy under a proper coach, Graham Potter should have been brought in for this IMO. One thing is becoming more and more clear for this England squad... Adam Wharton is inevitable. We'd have won 3-0 if he played 90 last night. -
Sam Szmodics-Your thoughts?
TheRevAshton replied to BRFC4EVA's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Couldn't help but notice that Sammie's Twitter images have now been updated with Ireland ones, after his 2 games with them... talk about prepping for a swift exit 😅 -
Window opens in 2 days and we still haven't even taken John Park on as Head of Recruitment... who's been nailed on to get it for weeks. Things are also now stalling with this Adam Owen chap as Technical Director... plus we still haven't replaced the scouts who recently left. It's all part of the plan isn't it? They'll try and drag it all out as long as they can - since the reality is that they can't do anything in the market until after the August court date. I mean, obviously the owners are dying to spend some of the millions we've brought in - but they can't! Not without a Head of Recruitment, without Scouts, without a "Technical Director"... right? Absolute shambles, we deserve better.

Aint it mad, that even the idea of us signing a decent free agent is wishful thinking nowadays. Marek Rodak, Josh Bowler, Aaron Connolly, Tyrese Campbell - all available as free agents, but all of them seem so far out of reach. Just thinking of the players we've had in the past... these lot couldn't lace their boots. Kills me seeing what they've done, and continue to do, to our Club.
