Someone left him in a meeting room at Ewood unattended and he ended up breaking the water machine, de-calibrating the wipe board and increasing STs by £30 for no reason.

Based on this, we should get some important questions answered. Yes, we will break 350 pages. I would say it is UNLIKELY we break 400, but we have a chance of breaking 375.

This should really be “how long since Mowbray confirmed he would be leaving” !

He’s about to sign for Villa. Very much out of our league, literally.

After listening to the new DOF interview yesterday I don’t suspect we will be handing any big deals - even if we could afford them - out to 28 year old players. He all but says the project is to develop young players and sell them, then reinvest. I suspect Carter is the direct replacement for Lenihan and we will either buy someone cheap (under 24) or loan someone to fill the gap of JPVH.

Doesn't fall under his remit. I hope he’s fantastic but the jump from marketing manager to head of marketing is HUGE.

We’ve hit 305 and 325 is ON!

Would rather go Ainsworth or Warne than Deila, personally.

No, its based on mine so we'll probably hire one today!!

We’re going to break 300 pages before we appoint a manager I reckon.

I’ve listened to Mowbray often, in my opinion, talk absolute shite which has infuriated me to the point I couldn’t enjoy watching Rovers. It’s quite nice to hear someone talk sense about football and respectfully about their club.

I knew nothing about him 48 hours ago but after reading and listening to Warne and looking at some articles on him, I’d be happy.

Great, 20M and early in the window. I love Ben but we can’t risk the version of him 2 years coming back.

We should have a thread really where someone monitors jobs he’s linked with and provides an email address for all relevant clubs so we can email our thoughts in.

What makes you think Carlo Ancelotti is working in the best interests of Blackburn Rovers?

At this stage I’d be absolutely delighted with him.

I’m on this at 33/1 because similarly it all seems too convenient.

I think it spells disaster because Ferguson has 5 games experience as a football manager, none of which in the Championship which is a very unique league and none with players of a championship quality. Alongside zero experience in the transfer market and we are a club need a full rebuild.

Jeez… I can’t get behind Unsworth and Ferguson. I mean I will, but I’ll be expecting disaster.

I like this game! I don’t think Ferguson, he would cause chaos. I don’t think Ainsworth, he would cost and that doesn’t seem to be an option. I don’t think Johnson, that would be a really hard sell to the fans. Could be Carrick. Could be Hughton. Manning wouldn’t be too bad. Pardew at 33/1 seems convenient. I’ll go Jokanovic, 40/1.

Well, Denise and John, BRFCS recently rejected your sponsorship opportunity despite it being far more lucrative than existing partners because we don’t believe in advertising gambling. So screw you.

Will you be going to the Rovers Trust AGM just up the road in Billington?

It depends what you mean by ITK. Is there anyone with a 100% record? No… although Unleaded must be close. Without giving out too much information this site is 100% used by fans, former players, club staff and Venkys staff. But not having a 100% record on rumours doesn’t mean people don’t get told things and post them on here. Rovers - especially Brockhall - is right on the doorstep of a community, that means people that are involved in Rovers are amongst us. As an example - and this isn’t some sort of ‘look at me!’ - I know first team players, I play football with the son of a previous manager, I know people in the coaching and medical teams, I know people who work at Ewood, I have Balaji and Suhail’s phone number and have spoken to both. Sometimes I get told things and every time I hear something, unless asked not to, I post them on here… and I’m more often wrong than I am right. My record is really bad!! So it doesn’t surprise me when others are wrong. I’m not ‘ITK’, anything I know is always second/third/fourth hand information. I commend anyone that posts what they hear, at worst it generates some discussion. I know I’ve posted rumours I’ve been told and it’s turned out it’s just info that people have wanted leaking. IMO there’s people at Ewood in very senior positions that think they know what is happening… but Rovers run differently than most clubs and there’s often 2/3/4 things happening all at once and a power struggle in play. So yes, people that are considered ‘ITK’ do get things wrong on here… but that doesn’t necessarily mean they haven’t heard something from a bloody good source. Equally, it doesn’t mean that they didn’t totally make it up. But none of this can be policed by BRFCS. You either believe it… or you don’t. What I won’t allow is people being driven away from the site for posting things they’ve been told which don’t end up happening. We’ve lost some really interesting posters - Kamy springs to mind straight away, Nicko is another, Glen Mullan stopped posted for a while, all because it wasn’t worth them posting what they where told for the stress of it didn’t happen. That’s unfair and people need to try and establish for themselves who they think is an authentic poster passing on what they’ve been told and who is a WUM.

The only reason I don’t think it will be him at this stage is because he’d ruffle too many feathers. The management team are on easy street and he would be like a bull in a kitchen.

In the interests of fairness the info on Carvahal was pretty incorrect
