  1. Easiest quid I’ll ever make…
  2. We sold our lowest number of STs for over 30 years… so of course it’s a no.
  3. End of the day, a proper manager given a proper budget, ergo giving yourself the best chance of winning football matches is the only thing that really matters if you want to improve the whole operation. As worthy as all the other stuff off the pitch is, without that pivotal bit, it’s merely tinkering at the edges…
  4. On here? Definitely, as the actual game has hardly been discussed, because, well, what’s the point? And at the ground, there would’ve been far more booing, ‘sort it out’ (you know, as hostile as Ewood gets these days) if the man had just signed a new deal, but again nobody bothered, because, well, what was the point?
  5. Won’t be much of a ‘revolution’ with those two…
  6. To be fair, I think the imminent departure of yon mon has taken the sting out of the result, bit of a line in the sand for everybody, now if he had just signed a new deal, it would’ve been very different…
  7. Just shows how long we have been in this stupor as a fanbase, if a smattering of half hearted booing after yet another piss poor performance and an odd ‘sort it out’ chant by a hundred or so in NO1 classes as ‘vicious abuse’.
  8. Christ knows who’s he’s been speaking too (taking an odd post from here and making it fit the whole fanbase, most likely) The present day fan at Ewood now has very low expectations… which is why the surprise (though alas very short) charge up the table was met with such unbridled and unexpected joy…
  9. Probably, I pay little attention to the PL these days… which looks set to continue.
  10. Best tell Luton they won’t be allowed in the PL, I mean what right do they have? Have they seen their low crowds and income?
  11. Away from social media, what ‘abuse’ has he had? He’s been treated very fairly home and away, never a single call for his head, very little dissent generally apart from standard grumbles and ‘sort it out’, which is par for the course, it isn’t a night at the theatre - and that certainly wouldn’t have been the case at all these other less ‘entitled’ clubs, as you know what, we are a pretty fair bunch at Ewood…
  12. Ha not particularly Rev, you just need calling out with the never ending excuses for these wreckers. Who employed Waggott? And the manager you detest for season after season?
  13. We have some of the most expensive season tickets in the league and £25 to £35 match tickets are also not ‘below average’.
  14. Yeah pick out and go to town on an odd error of judgement over a decade of fantastic work, whilst you still make excuse after excuse for this absolute daily shit show. Yes, standards were much higher but we all still knew he was a cracking Chief Exec… well apart from you.
  15. The very same John Williams that Rev used to consistently slag off, per chance?
  16. So? Managers sign poor players and waste money, that’s football, in no way is it comparable to this 12 years of farce, you really are scraping the barrel today, Rev
  17. Viera hadn’t pulled up any trees abroad but Palace fans love him…
  18. Considering it was me that first brought all this to this forum’s attention and repeatedly flagged the Coventry situation, I’m not naive to the possible intentions of certain people So surely any responsible owner should’ve been well aware and nipped it in the bud at birth, not let it get all the way to planning permission being requested with RVC, architect plans published, promotional videos with the Chief Exec about it on the club website, interviews with the LT etc etc. So what kind of owner is that much out of their loop of their own business that it could’ve got that far? Because, they were either in on it, or they are that far out of touch from their own football club that the training ground can be flattened for housing without their knowledge, so I repeat… ‘Either way, after 12 years of owning a football club, it doesn’t put them in a great light, does it?’
  19. Amazing that for Rev, even selling off the fixed, core assets of the business has either nothing to do with the owners, or they were totally unaware of the plans, as two bit operators like Steve Waggott and Mark bloody Venus make merry with nefarious schemes. Either way, after 12 years of owning a football club, it doesn’t put them in a great light, does it?
  20. So Waggott is still in the ‘circle of trust’ then, unless I’ve read your post wrongly?
  21. All true and he made plenty of mistakes and was tactically poor, so our big chance went -and that’s on the owners for appointing him and keeping him on too long, bit of a pattern…
  22. Unfortunately we had a cheap rookie, promoted from the youth set up, learning his trade managing them instead of a top Championship operator that could’ve got a more consistent tune out of the squad - that era was another fine example of the owners throwing untold millions down the toilet whilst scrimping on the most important element of a successful team.
  23. Indeed niko, think that’s the first time I’ve ever even heard our lame local media ask anything in a presser apart from ‘thoughts on Saturday’s game?’ ‘Who’s injured?’
  24. The difference is in the article, just like TM, Warburton talks about no new deal being offered in his presser, the club then responds that very afternoon talking about future plans (not involving Warburton)… Here? If he does actually go, firstly we won’t hear anything from the owners and then after some bargain bin trawling, some journeyman will trap up at some point in the summer.
  25. Flat price of £345 at Coventry (so just the near £200 cheaper for their best seats compared to a potential new ST holder here wanting one in the Jack Walker), free for all kids under 13.
