John Eustace - our head coach
Upside Down replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
Good to see that Eustace is continuing the form JDT started with putting these smaller teams to the sword and treating the cup games with some actual respect. Just get some lads on the halfway line when we're defending a corner FFS. -

Say they named Klopp, chaddy will be saying that he's lived in the country for 9 years and is a naturalised citizen and eligible for a passport. -

Rhetorical question surely -
They didn't pump as much money into their squad though as they used much of it to upgrade their pig sty ground. I'd expect them to do reasonably well but they got promoted by being really solid and scoring goals when required rather than just blowing the league away with a massive budget. Their season in the Premier League was absolutely nowhere near as embarrassing as the dingles either. They didn't spend a huge amount on players and went down fighting. The exact opposite of the six fingerd ones.

If the dingles don't absolutely piss the league then there's something wrong. Shows how poor the game has gotten now. Completely embarrassingly shit last season but will win the league this year without breaking a sweat.

TBF a decent manager can only stem the embarrassment on the pitch. He can't control the neanderthal fans or the tin shack falling apart.

Absolute basic tactics that are beyond modern football coaches. Maybe the data doesn't support it 🙄 -

Assault might be a bit of an exaggeration but you will always see players grabbing hold of each other and shirt pulling etc. It's amazing that half of all corners don't result in a penalty. Soft refereeing. -

Pulling some of the dwarves out of the box and putting them on the halfway line might help as well. -

Fixed that. The pink is absolutely spot on. Hard colour to get right but it's been absolutely nailed here. Too bright and it looks tacky, too dark and it looks flat as a fart. Ours is absolutely perfect and the road map details are excellent. The badges in the middle are very late 90s but that's alright. These are the best kits we've had since the Asics days. -

He better improve his performance then because he'll start to get pelters when he starts to give games away. -

I really hope they give the job to a foreigner now. Just can't wait to see chaddy do yet another one of his famous 180s. -

His position for the second was wrong. He came rushing out at one point and nearly cost a goal. I think he gave the ball to the opposition at another point as well that could well have ended in a goal. That shot he let go was ridiculously close and the fact he made no attempt at saving it was ridiculous. He's an absolute liability and will drag us down the table with his lack of ability to read the game and make good decisions. He absolutely will cost us goals, games and points. Granted the save from the corner was very good. -
I do agree on that. They are actually doing the right thing with this. It's the grandstanding about it that sickens me, given six months earlier they practically gave away the best player we've had for over 15 years. Then add on top that the fact that none of the money will be reinvested in the squad and it's even more sickening.

The first post was about what the club actually does. (BBD, Rothwell, Wharton, Kaminski etc) The second was about what posters on here would hypothetically do, IE behave like a real football club. I would like Sammie to stay as we need him and we all know whatever money the club recieves won't be used to strengthen the squad. I do however accept that he more than deserves the chance to show what he can do in the premiership.

Nobody here would accept that. We'd only sell him if the offer is good and is actually relative to his value for Rovers. We also wouldn't have accepted the insulting offer that palace made for Adam Wharton. Crucially, if we did accept an offer that was a good sum we'd actually use some of the money to strengthen the squad and make a push for promotion back to the premier league. What you're saying is absolute bollocks.
