If/when we go down, how stupid is Hyam gonna look with his ‘calm down’ gestures to the riverside? Will he do that today as well?

Hyam and Pears doing their utmost here. Hahaha, relegation stuff this. 1-4?

Having seen the replay: Hyam has to take most of the blame, agree, but Pears’ choice, being where he was and with Hyam so close to a Wed player, was less than ideal as well. But realise I’m old fashioned with the safety first at the back thinking😩

Pears, I never want to see that man in our shirt again.

Omg, time stod still there

Which is, oddly enough, kind of a dream scenario, where Venky’s will throw in the towel, we go through administration/restructuring and can start all over with a clean slate👍

Hyam will take us down, and in schoolboy style.

But the players are so much happier now, full of confidence and happy with the style of play, without the demanding JDT, so all in all a much better state of affairs now with Eustace. According to the group of Senior Players. End of story, many thanks.

GB on McGuire: «It was purely a human error that made that happen. I do not really want to go into the details of what will happen on the back of that, the board of directors know my thoughts on it.» This has to be a lie? To protect the BoD (who in reality pulled the 🔌 on the deal)? If true… 🤯 I guess it’s 🤯 either way🤷‍♂️

Ref’s high on Saudi $$ as well as 1/2 of Tyneside

TelAliDiaovic?

“Responsible for the successful acquisition of Blackburn Rovers Football Club…” Successful as in “we actually managed to fill in the forms and sign the agreements”? Has anyone here approached Pasha (Suhail Shaik) through LinkedIn? Why don’t we just do it now?

😂😂😂 ok, he’s not getting results, but you’ve gotta love the guy, still with the cheeky comments re. Waggott😅. The Rovers madhouse is likely more of a madhouse than any of us can believe😂 better than any show on Netflix this..

My God… layer upon layer of… wtf.. 1. Loan with end of season option/obligation to buy deal with Rovers on deadline day. Who’d go for that?? 2. Cheating Orlando of their target while trying to agree terms with Orlando for McGuire?? 3. Rovers bidding up the price of Brekalo, Orlando submit improved bid - but want more from Rovers for McGuire to cover the increased fee for Brekalo?? Gregg’ lost it😵‍💫

Ephron Mason-Clark @ the posh?

Sticking my neck out here, perhaps naively, but I’m just so beyond fed up: It is time. We need to wake up. We need a supporter uprising. The past 13 yrs have been a mess, obviously, but this year represents the mother of all missed opportunities for the club (and the owners). The owners (and the club’s CEO) have no plan but to tread water forever, and do not care to invest the little extra needed for a serious promotion push (although they’re ok wasting 10-20 m a yr). There is no rationality, there is no communication from the owners (and hasn’t been for years…), the communication from the club to the outside world is in part dishonest and in part self-contradictory. The list of bad stuff goes on and on… The level of the performances on the pitch are starting to dip. The squad is getting thinner each transfer window. And our excellent coach (the one without wheels) will likely leave by the end of the season. The club will not be able to recruit a new manager with anything close to the same quality. SO - can we please apply some pressure to the Venky gang? How? a letter? Protests in the stands? Empty stadium? Other suggestions? Does one start with Pasha? Or Waggott? Do we know any potential buyers of the club? Or have we all accepted Rovers’ faith and decided there’s nothing the fans can do about it; we are doomed to watch mediocre (at best) second level (at best) football under faceless chicken farmers/gangsters for the rest of our lives?

Or bird sh**? Guano Rovers @ Guano Park? (Perhaps not, chickens aren’t seabirds.)

What a beautiful first 15 mins!! Then… the Venky’s s***show continues. Thank you, Venky, how can I return the favour and ruin hundreds of evenings for you guys?

Unbelievable, so they committed to sending Buckley out before incoming(s) were secured??? Amateur hour @ Rovers , apparently, again. After more than 30 yrs supporting Rovers I think I’ve actually had it. It just brings more misery than joy into my life. It’s gonna be a sh****show from here on till May ‘24. Hasta la vista, Rovers and football, it’s certainly been a ride…

Has to be (forget the nonsense in the transfer thread):

Yes, correct.

Not going to happen. Here’s a Google translate from local Bodo newspaper summer 2022 re. him: “Despite the odds: AN's Glimt expert, Freddy Toresen, has very little faith in Knutsen leaving Glimt in favor of Blackburn, - I think the probability of that happening is equal to zero, he says firmly. - Why? - I base that on the collaborative climate between Knutsen and Broughton when they were both in Glimt. There are probably people who have talked more together at Aspmyra [Bodo’s stadium] in recent years than the two of them, says Toresen.”

MGP a very relevant source in that matter - here is one link (and debatable who the idiot is): MGP: International for Norway between 2004 and 2014 (83 matches). JDT: Assistant from 2016-2019 to Norwegian Aage Hareide - head coach for Denmark’s national team from 2016-2020. Aage Hareide: Denmark head coach 2016-2019. Norway (MGP) head coach 2003-2008. Malmo head coach 2014-2015 (took M to Ch League group stage), and interim head coach after JDT quit in 2022 (!). So the guy who introduced MGP into the Norw national team, and coached him for years there, was also JDT’s boss at Denmark + predecessor and successor at Malmo. Venky’s must be idiots to give MGP a call.

Think Pears should be sold. Lacking the final necessary %%. For replacement, got a tip from this well renowned manager from Teesside that there is a semi-talented Spanish guy in London available - apparently a player who’s aiming for some unrealistic transfers in the summer that will never materialise (apparently hasn’t quite got the talent) - and when no bids come in in July he should be available for a modest fee. David something I think it was - player’s name. Should go for him.

Obvious red card on Cork. Not given, and the fuckers score within seconds. Obvious hand ball by Barnes. But of course no pen given. Of course. Our recruitment is questionable, but how bad is EFL’s?? Recruiting refs from waiting rooms outside eye clinics and specsavers across the country?? We are useless at scoring, but my god these refs are really robbing us. JDT should have the guts to complain post match.
