Cool, only 10,000 more to go for it to not be a total failure.

They achieved 24 points. They were shit.

They've a long way to go before that. They haven't even tried to deliberately relegate the club yet, nor have they paid out all their top players 80% of their contracts to get them to leave. There's a lot for them to do before they can start deliberately sabotaging any attempt to get promoted back to the premier league.

We arrrre the Burrrnley haters

No need for us to worry about that. We know the owners will sabotage any chance of us ever getting there.

Nothing wrong with them kex.

Sorry Tyrone, you opened that door and you're just going to have to go through it. No turning back from that.

Leeds banking on finishing in a big money position? They never learn do they.

Please lord make it be so 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 He will still never be as bad as kean. Nobody in the history of world football will ever be as bad as him. Still, he achieved more points than Saint Vincent.....

100% See John Buckley.

Brought this over here Tyrone, I did say these two threads would go hand in glove (the sun shines out of our behinds). I think the pants look good being that short, the only time I'd want them a bit longer maybe is if you're wearing Chelsea boots. Pretty easy to look after yourself when you've not slogged your ring piece out all day on the shop floor or on site tbf but he's definitely always kept himself in fine fettle. I also have a real thing for a nice jacket, they're absolutely essential when you come from up our way. And like they say, you can take the boy out of Blackburn... North Face has only recently appeared round here but we've got shit loads of outdoor brands. My proper warm weather jacket is a nice Kathmandu number made from down so it's nice and waterproof. Then I've got my old US army M65 Parka that I got from the surplus shop in Manchester about 16 years ago. I recently got a Napapijri jacket as well. You don't see any of them round here. It's great for those days where there's a shitty easterly wind and it's just too cold for a t-shirt. Also I have had a right good laugh at the thought of OJF pinning that Weller picture on his bedroom wall.

You really do have a way of putting things ABBEY.

I doubt we'll see any players with that level of commitment and desire here again until a change of ownership. It will be journeymen dollopers not giving a toss if we win lose or draw just turning up when they feel like it. When the owners, fake ceo, shadow ceo, head coach don't care about winning games we certainly won't be attracting players that have a winning mentality. The best we can hope for is that we pick up a young lad that's wanting to use us as a stepping stone from a lower level club to a real football club so will give it some bollocks to get the spotlight on him. But there's absolutely no guarantee that we'll be luck enough to get someone like that.

What is the link? You've got me flummoxed there. The Eagles - Take It Easy

Hopefully that will be fat frank.

Either way, if we don't sign a proper number 1 then we may as well not bother playing this season at all and just start next year in League One.

So another lazy jobs for the boys appointment then.

There is absolutely no way while there is a hole in your arse that you were advocating to get rid of Mowbray. You defended him right to the death.

They were still 4000 short of where they should have been.

I think he's made a very premature decision to go there. He'd have probably been in the first 11 here by now if he'd have stayed and having a solid season or two under his belt would have seen him in line for actual big money moves. No doubt his agent would have been one of the driving forces behind this move, in his ear about how rosy and green it will be at the biggest small time club in the world. I'm sure he'll have picked up a nice fat commission on that deal that he wouldn't have got had Phillips stayed at Rovers. Anyway fuck him, spurs are a shit club.

The thing that stings the most about Wharton leaving is that they couldn't wait to get him out the door. Palace didn't steal him, he was given to them for practically nothing.

He was a world class player though and did a good job for us. Steve Kean is as low as you can go in terms of a human being. An absolute piece of shit.

Sad to read that SC but an excellent eulogy. It's an inevitable fact of life that we'll lose those who are closest to us but the cold hard truth of this doesn't make the loss any easier to take. All we can do is look back at the fond memories of our loved ones and make the most of the time we have with each other.

That's a fair point, he's certainly only ever been given a sniff of number 1 because he's Wayne Rooney.

And they'd downed tools for the month and a half prior to that as well.
