Under Venkys I would deem anything other than promotion to be total failure.

Just because someone writes in to the paper every week bragging about how many bottles of buckfast they've drank in a day doesn't mean they've got a wine column.

I look forward to his insulting remarks to the fans.

We got a hammering but to watch Patrick Vieira glide majestically round the pitch was always a thing of beauty. And the view from the riverside is first rate.

Yes that's right it was April. Me and my dad were sat in the riverside and we got absolutely soaked. Got my first ever copy of 4000 holes that day.

It was snowing in march

He had an absolute nightmare against arsenal.

Shame about all his injuries. I wondered why I never saw him play.

I remember all of them except the very last one. Henchoz wasn't forgotten though, he was top class. He even came back for a season when we went back up.

He was known as the locomotive. Probably because it rook four hours to get him going.

People always say that kind of thing but if we'd have beaten West Ham then we'd already have been champions by the time we got to anfield.

What about left back though?

I haven't seen teams consistently do this since the 90's. I don't know why as you point out here the obvious advantages. Makes for a great chance of a counter attack.

Proper football.

1. Where will Rovers finish ? 1st 2. Who will be the Rovers (official) Player Of The Season ? Ayala 3. Who do you think will be the breakout/breakthrough academy player this season ? (Let’s say under 23 at season start & fewer than 10 1st team appearances to be eligible) Adam Wharton 4. Who will win the Championship ? Rovers 5. Where will Burnley finish ? In League 1

Here is my optimistic prophecy. We will win 4-0 Dack with 2 and Diaz with 2.

Yes you can. You just call yourself a project manager.

To maximise the potential of the younger players you need experienced pros to help shepherd them through things. We have some promising young players but just throwing them in at the deep end because we have nobody else is not the right way to help them develop.

JDT is also still developing as a coach. It's ridiculous that we had one injury and we were in a crisis and being forced into playing a 17 year old on a scholarship contract every single game. The state the squad has been left in is unacceptable. Hopefully some significant changes will be made and things can start moving in the right direction. Venkys out.

We really should have signed Zidane and replaced Dalglish with a top manager.

Mark Atkins.

To be fair we've been lacking in midfield for probably 15 or 16 years.

Stoke is a very strange place with some strange people. Lapsed security at the asylum maybe?

Fuck off Coventry.
