Upside Down

If he's not been getting game time there's likely to be a reason behind it. Lots of speculation here. Why everyone is going mad about him not playing is a little strange given that he has yet to complete a full 90 minutes.

The EFL could in theory not allow them to get promoted. Second place is rewarded with promotion only because the EFL have granted it. So they could just take that prize away from them for not complying with the rules. Whether that is correct I don't know for certain, if someone knows otherwise then please respond.

Definitely hope.

So the referee just ignores most of those rules then. It's a lot like how there are red and yellow cards for bad tackles and foul play but those rules don't apply to Manchester United.

I find it strange so many people are writing this guy off straight away. Chaddy had a point about people changing jobs, that is what most people do. Thr RAF doesn't count as any kind of response to what he asked. It's not like you can resign and join the French air force because they are offering you more money and a company car. As you say though, all of that is irrelevant. Hopefully he can pull the rabbit out of the hat

Hopefully he knows what a striker looks like.

So who's Newell and who's Speedie in the squad today then?

Yes unlike many I don't think the O'Brien farce was all down to greg. It has all the hallmarks of venkys standard operating procedures.

Bravery has been banned at Blackburn Rovers since November 2010

I must admit that's pushing it a bit far. But I stand by what I said. As for JDT I was wrong to label him a dolloper. In my defence that was in the aftermath of surrendering to both Burnley and Preston and him coming out with some bullshit comments about how promotion isn't the main focus. I genuinely think if the O'Brien transfer hadn't been sabotaged we'd be well ahead of whoever was in 7th place right now but hey, the administrative team "accidentally" failed to undertake a basic task. Also greg should have sorted us a half decent forward by now.

That's a highly likely outcome.

I'm sorry but that is fundamentally not true.

It wouldn't be the first time.

You supply me that plane tickets, accommodation and a nice new pair of boots and I'll be there. I'm not going to lie though, I'm really really shit.

Yeah, fuck promotion. What really counts is that we saved a couple of quid by "accidentally" failing to do basic admin tasks.

What did he say? Rovers were one hundred percent at fault for that entire debacle.

Low alcohol beer at only 6.5% abv.

There will be a select group lining up to lick their boots.

Chaddy says no so that's the answer to that.

He was post February.

Its entirely in our hands.

Aren't they part owned by war criminals or something like that?

Nah it needs to be hazy pale ale. Speaking of which, I wish someone would tell these fools that there's more to beer than just a shitload of hops.

Speaking of ifs, if we'd have beaten west ham earlier in the season we'd have already been champions by the time we got to anfield. League titles are won over a whole season not just one weekend.

I honestly don't know where to begin with this. Piss poor. JDT is the first decent manager that has been appointed under Venkys. All the others have been total dog shit. It took twelve years for that appointment to be made. Then you compare that to appointing steve kean, literally the worst football manager that has ever walked the face of the earth. As far as I can see nothing has changed. There may not be as much mayhem as there was in previous years but the club is still locked in a downward spiral. The O'Brien transfer showed pretty conclusively that there has been no change in the way things are done.
