Really? Wow, I've seen the F & even C bombs dropped on here recently.

For someone that "agrees" you might want to get out of that E Lancs bubble.

Dunny is a proper Rover. He does some broadcasting work which requires him to refer to us as 'Blackburn' but he's a genuine lad that loves the club.

I like overseas so I don't have to suffer as regularly as the rest of you. I have been here for the Bradford, Birmingham and Norwich games and I haven't seen Rovers win in years. Everytime I visit Ewood I leave with the taunts and celebrations of visiting fans ringing in my ears. Today might have been the final straw. That first half performance was a fucking disgrace and there was no coming back from it. If thats what these nomarks produce after at least 5 days on the training ground then I despair. If that's what 5 days of coaching produces then Ismael is stealing a living. As for Kargbo, for a professional not to score in that position he should consider his future. I so admire my mates for going to Ewood week in, week out to be subjected to that shite because I'm sure as fuck that I wouldn't.

They should be ashamed and embarrassed after that. Pathetic.

From the fevered passion of Legia's legendary Ultras to the quiet grumbling of Ewood Park. Welcome lad!

Very sad and very true. Venkys would not be tolerated at b*ly or Preston. Bolton and Blackpool fans demonstrated how you get rid of poisonous owners. Won't happen here.

I'm out and about at the minute so at bit busy to deal with your hissy fit.

It came as quite a shock to see that you have reacted negatively to a potential signing.

So, are we signing anyone else or nah?

I think you could possibly make a case that Coventry's and Charlton's were.

Other fanbases.......Bolton, Charlton, Coventry, Blackpool got rid of their undesirable owners. Ours are on.........what is it? 14 years?

Perhaps that is because they have a large, passionate fanbase that won't turn their back on their club?

Is this our first Sid since Puddefoot?

I work with a Watford fan and his memories of Ismael are some stunning wins and performances as well as some dismal runs of form. Sounds very familiar but these are different circumstances, different players and a fresh club so I'm hoping for more the Barnsley version and less the West Brom.

Loads of experience. A fairly uninspiring but safe 'ish'' appointment. Pretty much becoming a standard Venky managerial appointment in the mould of Mowbray and, to a lesser extent, Eustace. Nothing to get particularly excited about, Nothing to get particularly despondent about.

Perfectly pithy and very much appreciated.

Just dipped in for my daily attempt to update myself on the Managerial situation. As with the biannual transfer thread it's barely readable. From what I could glean yesterday we were having a meltdown about Karanka. For the sake of clarity and to save me wading through pages of hysterical nonsense can somebody let me know who we are having a meltdown about today?

On this day 2 years ago Luton under Rob Edwards were 5th in the Championship..........

In my experience Rovers fans from areas East of Blackburn couldn't care less about preston. They're like Reading or Charlton.

Being from the Accy area I have a lot of experience of Dingles. Worked with them, played Football against them, never had one as a mate. Summat not right about them. When we were enjoying our halcyon days in the mid 90s I still rejoiced when they got beat. I'd get " you're in the Prem but obsessed with us" I'd reply "I'm not obsessed, I'll just always fucking hate you."

To be fair, I hate b*ly more than I love Rovers.

So, so satisfying.

3-1 inbreds. I'll take that, I just couldn't cope with a hammering.
