Well you are certainly persuasive, like I said get in touch with Miller and hopefully the players can run out to it for the opening game against Burton Albion in August… and watch the roof come off! 🎶 No, no, no no…

People are getting too focused on both wins and defeats tallies, as I suppose it’s easy to frame the debate that way- ‘only x wins, he’s shit’ or ‘only x defeats, he’s steadied the ship’. It’s points that matter and his return is relegation form - less than a point a game (13 points from 14 matches).

Who’s criticised Sammie for being selfish? He works his arse off the team, whoever said that must have confused him with Adam Armstrong.

Blackburn was one of the homes of rave and acid house, they weren’t listening to the likes of ‘no no, no no no no’, ya daft sod 😅. What do I want to hear? Couldn’t give a flying feck, so yeah, get them rung up with your suggestion, might fire Gallagher up enough to actually get in the box or something.

It’s over 30 year old, and it was even naff back then, so if anyone is the Grandad wanting that cheese played, it’s you! I’d take it up with @Miller11 , as I’m sure he now has an input into the music they play.

You think that naff tune blazing out of the shit sound system is going to get folk going? Aye, oreight 😅

JDT had one foot out of the door by January… so even if it was a pure football thing, why let the captain leave in January too if the manager he fell out with was also on the verge of departing?

Just four starts down there, only completed the 90 once. Not exactly ideal for a club captain in his peak years.

Cracking arse covering though as he knows it will go down well with a fair chunk of the fanbase that will blame JDT if the worst happens - not as daft as he sounds.

Have they booked an open top bus? Or maybe just use the coach.

I used them recently and I can vouch for them… however, once again a very small ( in the grand scheme of things), down the road operation. Surely Blackburn Rovers should be aiming to engage bigger fishes? But nah, just spin the Rolodex for the local firms already in the tent.

… a win takes them to the 100 point marker too which champions always love to have as a further bauble.

Exactly. ’The squad’s shit, but I’ll have a go’. Just don’t listen to them if you don’t want to hear banalities.

I’m not talking about right now, as if you noticed I didn’t mention Southgate - but thanks for the correction, Eddie.

QPR, Millwall, Sheff Wed have all had managerial changes that have had an impact, especially when you consider their respective league positions when they went in, the results are plain to see - this fella obviously hasn’t, luckily he had a very handy buffer to fall back on. Though I suppose he has steadied the ship as it hasn’t sank yet, but he couldn’t actually steer it into calm waters like the bosses of those other clubs.

He should be delighted to come back now that fella who wouldn’t pick him has gone.

Yep, we are in a perfect storm ST wise, terrible product on the pitch, terrible mess off it, expensive and far more of the games now available on TV to boot. Any normal club would be offering a bloody good deal this summer to counter said storm… alas we ain’t one.

Manioo because he plays for, err, Man U… that’s as far as an England manager analysis would go.

Stretch bonuses all round! 🥳

If we stay up, it’s been done unconvincingly, but it is job done. End of the day at most clubs he would get to start the new season in charge, be given the benefit of the doubt, but if things go awry in the first half of that campaign, he’d be out, and he would have to be as results would’ve been poor over a sustained period - does anybody seriously think that would be the case here? No ambition, no drive, no standards, no pressure anywhere at the club and you can’t run any team, professional or otherwise, in this manner.

To be fair he gets that every week. Knowing he’s coming up against our ragtag lot is all the motivation he needs.

It was always legally the Premier League, it was just re-branded for sponsorship for a few years.

Perhaps knowing there’s a multi ball system so let’s get on with the game?

Unfortunately they pretty much have, playing in the Championship for a club like Rovers these days is as good as being ‘unknown’.

Had a look at the PNE forum, plenty saying how they are sick of Lowe, crap end to the season etc, but they might as well still get a ST at that price, how it’s still good value even if you miss a few - here it’s crap and expensive, much more of a dilemma.
