Agreed yes all or nothing for carrick now but attack isn’t the issue of late for them it’s in defence travers a good pick up but their midfield and defence been suspect of late -

Two good solid defenders in the door for fees too how it should work - sell Whittaker reinvest - no excuses - have smaller gates than us recently in league one if anybody is in any doubt re venkys etc just look at Plymouth indeed -

Would you not say that is good management as opposed to like great players. As the second half season fall off happens every year because we can’t help or progress the team the above have been good signings but if we tally the amount of incomings all together the majority have been poor -

It’s ok though Eddie says the signings have been fantastic and Eustace is probably to blame for all those……….. -

I would take your post seriously if most of your previous posts weren’t complete negativity towards Eustace - you have an agenda which you won’t let go -

To be honest it’s pointless debating with chaddy because he changes the wording all the time to suit his own narrative can never admit he has been wrong or the club is wrong (not sure why Iv been wrong loads of times nothing wrong with it) It began with Eustace wants experience il trust whoever we get in as Eustace would have given the ok to it to now saying well we can’t get that experience (which plenty on here said due to clubs lack of ambition) so we’re looking overseas and Eustace will have some sort of say but not the final say now to then for 2/3 days agreeing with most on here about how poor it’s been that we haven’t even got one player in (priority position) and how we haven’t spent any money and not even a contract renewal to now going back again to say let’s judge come the 3rd all angles are covered - he can never be wrong when he agrees/disagrees with everything on here -

That’s exactly it it works when you have footballing people in the hierarchy who have knowledge and ambition for the club we don’t which is why it’s not working stoke sheff w two off the top of my head also having issues according to fans so unless we have a competent owner/board this will never work for us -

Emerald Isle Rover replied to chaddyrovers's topic in Blackburn Rovers Fans Messageboard
And that’s the jist of it for me the amount of say/control a manager has or should have - again to reiterate I’m not saying it doesn’t work I’m saying it doesn’t work for our club as the ones above have no interest at all -

All football related I said - again it’s a preference of mine and only emphasised by the fact we are run by a bunch of morons -

‘According to rudy’ id beg to differ given forshaw interview and johns interview himself yesterday I think as JE has mentioned before the club will pick some and he will pick some. I don’t believe he has been given a list of 5 and he has the final say on them at all -

We keep saying about the Brentford model etc about having a director of football and a coach they liase in this perfect world and brilliant for Brentford that’s worked but it’s not a one glove fits all method - if it was all clubs would do it and we currently have one of the worst run clubs about secondly as per Eustace comments forshaw was again an emergency signing by Rudy pretty much admitted by the player himself in his interview - Sanderson an emergency signing that in truth made sense - Yuki Gueye were Rudy signings also - so not sure on what your basing his transfers on tbh and again this is of course my opinion it’s not fact or set in stone - my preference as a fan is that there is a football manager who oversees all football related things including contracts transfers etc it leads to accountability and no grey areas if signings are made and they aren’t good and results tail off etc it falls on the manager. This current set up there’s grey areas where a manager mightn’t get the sort of player he wants to suit him/his style of football which can lead to finger pointing so for me the manager should be the one making the calls he/his team are the ones working with the players daily - it’s old school yes -

Nonsense - the individual assessment should directly involve the coach/manager to make sure their the right fit for the club -

‘Okay’ he’s 9 goal contributions in 14 games due to injury and suspension his form and progression seems to be on the up Given the interest in him and the substantial offers already in for him 23 years old fantastic resale value if he continues progressing was bought for 20million (price tag at his young age could easily have got him and it looks to have) but yea we shouldn’t go for him - strange anyhow never in a million years going to happen -

That’s a fair u turn chaddy 2/3 weeks ago you were adamant JE has the final say we now know after his comments today Kargbo isn’t his pick - but we or most of us knew that before as in a previous interview he said the club know who I want and they have their targets too this is the problem with this set up it’s something Iv never liked if the manager can’t get to pick I just don’t understand why when he’s the coach and doing all the work on the pitch with the players it makes no sense to me at all -

Are you a scout? Do you know what you’re looking for? Is that clip what they have solely used? Silly comment -

I’m not saying it will be us I don’t think it will be us but there’s 2 spots available and I believe all the teams at present are too inconsistent I think 6th will be around then 67-70mark of course when the window closes teams have signings etc nothing to say one of those teams form shoots through the roof but nothing at present to suggest that -

I don’t think 74 will be the 6th place points total boro losing main striker and form has been poor our form poor wba form poor cant see any of the pack getting 30 points plus from 17 games all too inconsistent -

That’s exactly it spending doesn’t automatically equal success some signings could be bust but at least you have tried and at least the fans know you have tried -

Whilst all entitled to our opinions I think this is a tad harsh maybe he will be better playing with better players and a better coach? A more open game here in the championship maybe than the Italians who like to defend a lot look with our money that they are choosing not to spend we should be after better but writing him off before a ball is kicked is unfair
