London blue

I'm not that far from you in that, but he would be a considerable loss in terms of quality, and one I can see them being receptive to.

Toth.

Seems he's still here for now.

This is exactly what I believe to be happening. One can argue whether or not that is truly deliberate but I don't think it matters. As Mark is so keen on pointing out, sporting performance is not the priority here. Reducing overheads supercedes everything, which sadly includes hiring a no mark like Ismail and keeping him in the role despite atrocious performance.

As has been suggested many times, it's all about standards. It seems there are those who are willing to see Rovers run in this manner.

The club is quite simply on its knees and I'm supposed to be grateful that they're providing just enough money to not see their investment taken away from them by administrators? Fuck them.

Dear boy we're not going nowhere fast, we're going downwards fast. You're making the mistake of assuming the goal is Premier League football; "where we belong". I defy you to find one poster who has claimed such. I have seen many who have said they would rather we were lower in the pyramid with engaged, passionate owners. Your lack of comprehension of the ultimate goal of the coalition is the problem here, not the ambition of the coalition.

The combination of smug self satisfaction and hand wringing over potential outcomes makes your posts difficult in the extreme to stomach. I don't know why you're here other than to attempt to shit on the efforts of people who care about the club. Keep going to Ewood, please. Just save us from whatever point you're trying to make.

If we weren't fucked before, we are now. I'd love to get this season over and done with tbh.

Yeah the trope of us pulling a rabbit out of the hat came from the end of last season, then most of that squad left. These are sorely lacking in the gumption required to block out the noise and focus on themselves, not helped by the excuse culture ingrained in the club. Watford will hammer us, I'm fairly sure of it.

I'd say it's close to impossible to get a lwb if you have no intention of getting one and aren't making any overtures to do so.

Couldn't agree more. Time to realise we score at a rate of under 1 goal a game and that we need to not concede to have a chance of anything.

Bonuses related to financial management, I'm certain. Assurances of a stable, well paid job, too.

Fuck me that is woeful. Not a comment on your choice but on the dearth of quality in the squad.

Given how arrogant he evidently is, this coming out is bringing me joy. To be so horrendous at negotiating that someone literally repeating your price back at you causes you to half that price is... hilarious. He's that dreadful combination of incompetent and confident. Wanker.

Fair, obvious answer is Jorgensen I guess. Low bar at the moment. I do tend to disagree with you generally on Tronstad but would agree he's been sub par recently and that as a senior player I expect far more.

Who played better than him yesterday Rev? I didn't watch the game, so I'm not trying to catch you out. I'm interested.

So, so down. So very down.

So, so down. So very down.

I genuinely hope so. Despite being desperately short of quality I'd love to see the back of him.

Seems like it's lack of accountability by design. No clear accountability means mistakes go unpunished and root causes are not identified. If your feet are under the table (SS, RG... AO TBC?) then blame is shifted onto the next mug. Rinse, repeat.

How about Friedel Salgado Samba Nelsen Zurab Tugay Nzonzi Duff MGP Santa Cruz McCarthy We'll score more goals than you

Thinking about the "Travis is ordinary and we won't miss him" posts that I saw everywhere when he left. Absolutely crying out for a hard working captain with a bit of needle. It's fine, I'm sure Tavares will become the next Fernandinho any time now.

Checked in, saw the score, scoffed. Fire him, don't fire him, I don't give a fuck.

Wowsers. Reads like a daily mail comment section.
