  1. I haven’t watched any of it today. Were we batting with the bat handle again ?
  2. Kiddo was working with Prem players in a Prem set up under one of the best managers that has ever been but he was clueless when he got here.
  3. I just looked in my “ Wisden “ for 1962 Jim. The 1961 season Aussie tourists played Worcestershire ( the traditional opening game “ ) on April the 29th and May 1st and 2nd. They then played Derbyshire, Yorkshire, Lancashire, Surrey, Cambridge Uni, Glamorgan, Gloucestershire, The MCC, Oxford Uni, Sussex. All theoretically three day, two innings games. After that they played England in the first Test on June 8th. All the main batsmen had made hundreds by then, some had made two or more.
  4. It’ll be somebody desperate to get a job, that’s for sure. Why else would you accept Lowe as your first team coach ?
  5. What other football club interviews the number of candidates that we are supposed to have interviewed ? All that tells me is they don’t know what they are doing. I’m expecting a repeat of the Coyle/Warnock fiasco.
  6. I had the same problem. Luckily I had symptoms that led to an early diagnosis and successful treatment. Any man over 40 reading this - get the PSA test. It’s only a blood test but it could save your life. Once the cancer spreads from the prostrate your chances aren’t great.
  7. In the 70’s we had Ken Furphy, Gordon Lee, Jim Smith, Howard Kendall - all so successful they were stolen away by First Division Clubs. Of course we had a board of directors that actually knew something about football then.
  8. You’re looking down the wrong end of the telescope. The Chokers don’t do normal procedures. Their interview process is deliberately set up to eliminate all the good candidates until we’re left with the charlatan they want.
  9. I was right in line with the header. It was going in right until it didn’t. How he missed that I’ll never know.
  10. We’ll never thrive whilst they own the club. You can’t run a football club by remote control.
  11. I think they knew better than to mess around in Spain. The Guardia Civil aren’t known for their tolerance. They shot my father in law’s dog dead when he got into an argument with them over parking his car. He ended up in the cells.
  12. Our appointment process reminds me of the old saying - “ a camel is a horse designed by a committee “.
  13. It would have been an expensive weekend for Huddersfield fans. I have a mate who supports both teams. Luckily for him he’s got a few quid.
  14. You’re wasting your time. The guy that would give a novice a chance wouldn’t entertain Dyche in the job. Say it all really.
  15. Given the backing Kean had in his time at Rovers from the football establishment he appeared to be “ highly respected in the game “. It’s just a shame that in reality he was a shit bag.
  16. Who’s “ We “ these days ? When did “ We “ last have any sort of influence over whoever “ they “ appoint ?
  17. I would imagine that the Catholic Church would have a bearing on the lack of a left wing party in Ireland.
  18. It’s a poor appointment. If you were Lenihan and you were hanging back to see who we appoint would that appointment encourage you to stay ? I can’t stand Mowbray but I’d prefer him to Duncan Ferguson. Why do these bastards continue to shit on our heads ?
  19. Who was it said the other day that the plan is “ managed decline “ ? What other view can we take. Of all the options we can take the Chokers chose somebody like Ferguson. If we have to have a Ferguson I’d rather have Darren Ferguson ! At least he’s been a manager. Drunken Duncan is just a motivator, that won’t wash with today’s players for more than a game or two.
  20. If Hudds don’t go up who would you like to see at Rovers from their team ?
