Thos part really stands out for me:

"I asked my agent how often this happens and he was like 'This doesn't happen'."

Human error? Bullshit. If you believe that then you are a fool.

Rudy Gestede 

I suppose it's only fitting to have a fake DOF to match the fake CEO we already have.

Broughton's replacement has been around the club for the last few weeks and has been shadowing various people 

And their name is?

Spurs have shown a real small-club mentality. Ange Postocoglu realised that. That is why he was clearly very, very pissed off about the whole situation

Their odds weren't long. 2 pts behind Villa who were away at in-form Palace, whilst Spurs had crap Sheffield Utd

Their odds on it are now nil. And they celebrated that. Weak and pathetic if you ask me and certainly not a club I'd want to play for. I suspect plenty of pros feel that way too, hence their bad reputation in football circles

Spurs are a small club.

They are one club that I would say have actual shit fans. They were a disgrace at the league cup final so I'm not surprised in the slightest that they celebrate missing out on a champions league place just so Arsenal won't win the league.

Small time mentally of small time fans of a small time club.

So why do you enjoy watching England lose if you don't subscribe to the notions of nationality?

Because it's really funny.

Sad attitude 

We'll see who's sad when England inevitably exit the competition as soon as they come up against any real opposition.

Personally I don't subscribe to the notions of nationality as I believe it to be a load of bollocks designed only to subjugate society.

I think the one that went down under TM (Coyle) was worse mainly because it had plenty experience and one of the reasons this one is weak is it's tiny and half full of youth and loans. Spirit is better than back then otherwise we wouldn't have stayed up and a lot of the players it isn't really their fault it's the clubs fault for throwing them under the bus without any help.

 

You can improve morale but you can't improve someone's talent.

This squad is also unbelievable weak both mentally and physically.

If they do get rid of VAR then I presume managers (and to a lesser extent supporters) will never complain about wrong decisions again. Accuracy will naturally go down.

I don't think it should be scrapped all together. Just the way it's used needs to be changed.

Any in play decisions should be requested by the officials on the pitch for another look. Not in slow motion, not with any lines drawn all over the place, just a real time replay. If it still isn't obvious then the initial decision stands.

VAR should be in no way having any influence in the game unless it's an off ball incident like an elbow in the face or something like that.

Why? are you English?

Unfortunately.

As per usual I will enjoy watching England fail.

From what I've seen, we've gone from 8th to 7th to ground zero in 2 years.

Venkys as always.

It's not THE worst - there's one I can think of in the 1970s that was worse - but it's not far off.

Agree though that we need a total rebuild and serious money spent

Take away Sammie and I'd say we'll be on par with that.

From what I've seen we'll need 15 new players and 9 of them will need to be first 11.

It's so bad even calling it a rebuild is pushing it. We're pretty much starting from scratch.

Another top player we gave away for fuck all.

Wharton could have scored 10 goals by January and probably not attracted a bid of £40+ million. There's a ceiling to the price of Championship players. But I take your point there should be a premium on key players in January - instead we rolled out the discount.

At every single club in world football there is a premium put on players in the January window.

At Rovers it's a firesale discount.

Who gives a fuck about either of these Mickey Mouse teams and their droves of plastic fans?

At least all the glory hunters that follow Liverpool and the red scum are following teams that have won numerous major trophies and actual pedigree in world football.

Prices from £450.

The whole game from top to bottom needs to be ripped up and started again.

They are all a disgrace to humanity.

To be brutally honest, you could take your own advice

"We" don't already know anything. It is you and a handful - literally, a handful - of posters who parrot this yes man plodder Steve Kean nonsense

The rest of us can see him for what he is. A coach who is operating with his hands tied behind his back

Bollocks. This is the absolute worst squad to ever call themselves Blackburn Rovers. 

If you don't think we need a complete rebuild then I'm not sure you've been watching the same team as me.

JDT was also hogtied completely but was always striving for excellence. This guy takes every opportunity to announce to the world that mediocrity is the best we can hope for. For me, that isn't good enough. 

This guy really needs to learn to just keep his mouth shut. We already know he's just another yes man plodder, there's no need to keep announcing it to the world.

We need to sign 15 players with 9 of them being first team starters. Every single area of the squad is weak.

did you have the same views under uncle jack?

There was a limit to Jack's budget.

City's budget is practically infinite.

Also mentioning Jack Walker in the same sentence as a bunch of backwards human rights abusing inbreeds is just down right sacrilege. HOW DARE YOU SIR!

Thought I saw a Rothwell on season long loan rumor. Would be welcomed back with open arms, genuine world beater on his day. Would take and play the Sammie role.
Chrisene would be even better next year, would loan him again. 

Sam will be away, someone will pay it, they always do. 15-17m.

 

New

Duro/Brittain Carter Hyam Chrisene

JRC Tronstad

DeBruyn Adam Wharton New

Haaland

A safe pair of hands and two speedy wide players needed.

Fixed.

If you're gonna dream at least dream big.

Football is a funny old game - remember West Ham denying United the title on the last day of the season in 1995.  Could lightning strike twice and they deny City?  Hope they do, would be good for football if Arsenal triumph.

Nah, better if city wins. Shows it up for being the farce that it all is.

How long until McGuire signs?

We were assured a pre contract deal would be sorted before now.
