‘Adjourned until [enter date here] 2025’.

Oh it’s the every other season weekly humble bragging by Longers, don’t they come along quick!

Ridsdale calling them a ‘well run club’ the other day… two games, two managers leave.

I know, you’re a big fan (unless it’s on TNT, of course…).

All relative I suppose. If your main term of reference as a Rovers fan is the Venky era (so any fan really in their mid 20s and below) then legend he is.

People still look forward to PL seasons?

Would it be any different on that cesspit if it was any other set of fans? Trolls being trolls.

‘One more year, Sammie Szmodics’ was being sung.

I didn’t realise the debate had finished, but yes I’ll have the last word - think we now agree that being born in a country doesn’t necessarily make you an Englishman or a German, but you are quite right if you were born here, brought up here and have an English/British nationality, then that’s quite different. Good chat.

I was just noting the inconsistency in case a Klopp got the job. I’m not interested in the slightest on what Carsley sees him himself as, English I imagine, but he fancied playing some international football. But my mate doesn’t want to quality for England as he’s not English, even though he was born here - glad we now agree.

Shifting your argument now Dreams. You didn’t say someone who ‘holds English nationality’, you said born in England and yes you don’t necessarily identify as an ‘Englishman’ and hold English/British nationality just because you are born in England. You or I don’t decide what makes an Englishman. My best mate was born and brought up here from an Irish family, but he’s never had a British passport, only Irish and he’s an Irishman. Really very simple and I’m not sure how it’s ended up as an argument.

No it is interesting, as there are many, many folk that would fundamentally disagree with that statement. And it works the other way too, if you are born elsewhere but later become a citizen of a country, you aren’t ‘really’ American or French or Australian?

So if you are born in England but see yourself as an Irishman or a Scot, you are mistaken, you are an Englishman? Interesting.

You are expected to be on the front foot at home, you need to be able to break teams down that will often sit in, you will need to pick up a substantial number of points at home if you want to have a decent season. So it wasn’t ’ridiculous’ at all to mention the fact he hadn’t won one. Didn’t particularly bother me last season as his short spell to May was purely to keep us up by whatever means, he did. Now he’s won a home game too, so let’s put it to bed.

What would have been 'ridiculous' about commenting on the fact he still hadn't won a home game if still hadn't won a home game, despite being here since February? But he did win it and that's that.

The Riverside will definitely be shut, but let’s hope he bothers with a few cleaners and stewards so the Blackburn End can open.

Brfcs Jury. There’s certainly no jury at Ewood anymore, lovely place to settle in to your job.

Good start, bit of positivity around the place, new signings doing well… fancy a season ticket? Well you’ll pay £100 more than the bloke you’ll be sitting next to. No? Ah well. Can anybody explain the rationale?

You don’t get number 9s on the wages we pay at this level that have the lot. But he looks to have enough to give defenders a tough time and to bring others into play. That’ll do.

‘Err he’s lived in Formby for a decade plus, his kids have gone to school here and he has a British passport. He’s English. Move on’.

Aynsley Pears - 6 Had absolutely nothing to do - apart from pick one out of his net. Nothing he could do as it was headed past him. Jackson with keen insights as usual. What does that even mean? Surely pretty much every goal ever scored is because it’s been ‘headed past’, ‘shot past’ a goalkeeper? *Disclaimer before Pears’ bodyguard, M*B says this post is me picking on him, this is me picking on Jackson.

Crediting Burnley is never hard for you, Merce!

Big potential there when you see the size of Stockport borough.

Rovers fans always give managers a chance (unless you’re Owen Coyle). Ewood is a great place to get your feet under the table.

Not for American owners by the looks of it.
